Description
0. E. GIBSON ETAL WALL CLIP BUILDING STRUCTURE Filed May 31, 1938 V52 5 G/BSON L/HM KEEN Patented Dec. 31, 1940 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE assignors to United St ates Gypsum Company Chicago, 111., a corporation of Illinois Application May 31, 1938, Serial No. 210.845
1 Claim. (01. 72-118) This invention relates to building constructions, and has reference more particularly to building constructions in which wall panels are yieldingly connected to building framework by suitable clips.
It has been recognized that in securing wall panels to the framework of a building, such as wooden studs or joists. it is desirable to use a yielding connection between the panels and the studs, so that as the framework twists or warps,
the wall panels will not be distorted, which causes cracks in the decorated surface of the wall.
An object of this invention therefore, is to provide a plaster board attaching clip for yieldingly attaching plaster boards to a building framework so as to prevent cracks in the plaster due to warping and twisting of said framework; also to improving building clips and constructions in otherrespects hereinafter specified and claimed.
Reference is'to be had to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, in-
- which Fig. l is a vertical section view through a wall with our improved board attaching clip in position,
Fig. 2 is a sectional view through the clip taken 5 on line 2-2 of Fig.1,- and Pig. 3 is a perspective view on a largescaleof the clip-attachedtoabnilding stud.
by nmneralsgahbuildwhich may be composed of agypsinn composiboard may beof fiber, compositions. orothersuit able construction. A layer ofplaster I4 is applied tel-the exposed face of theboards ii to form a finished" wall surface. I
In order-to yieldingly attach the boards ii to the frame member III, we provide a metallic clip it which is preferably made integral of a single piece of metal. The clip 16 is composed of a tubular body I! which may be rectangular in cross section. The inside thickness of the body I1 is slightly sreater than the diameter of a nail it or other driven member, which extends through said body I1 and is driven into the frame member iii. The inside width of the body II is considerably greater than the diameter of the nail It so that the clip It has freedom of movement about said nail to permit the frame member III to twist or turn without distorting the boards II and cracking the plaster it. A pair of outstanding. oppositely disposed flanges i8 is formed on the inside of the body l1, each of said flanges being provided with an inwardly extending shoulder 20 which bears against the face of the frame member ill, said shoulder 20 serving to space the flanges i9 away from said frame member 10 and prevent stud marks in plaster l4, and also serving to permit- 5 a certain amount of movement of frame member In relative to the clip is. A pair of outstanding, oppositely disposed flanges 2| is formed on the outer end of the body H, the outer ends of the flanges 2| being formed into outwardly curved 10 tips 22 so that the boards It may be easily inserted into the channel formed by the flanges l9 and 2|. The head 23 of nail i 8 extends loosely over the body I! and flanges 2| so as to yieldingly attach said clip It to the frame member ID. A 15 cover flange 24 is integrally attached to the flange 2| by a narrowv metal link or hingev 25, said flange 24 extending at right. angles to the flange 2| during the driving of the nail l8, as shown in dot and dash lines in Fig. a. After the nail l8 is driven into position into the frame member ID, the flange 24 is bent over to loosely cover the nail head 23 and lies in spaced, parallel relation to the flange 2|; The flange 24 thus prevents theiplaste'r is from flowing into theinside c of the-body i'lunder troweling pressure, since otherwise plaster inside saidbody "would set upgandipreventfreedom ofmovement of the body I with? construction illustrated is suitable-io'r' -nseeinithe wallsf' .0139; Y v V 7 buildings and isespecially useful-in preventing-w can care" "I 8831*? settlement orvother'cracks inthe plaster 14..
Wewould state-in conclusion that, while theiliustrated example" constitutosa practical em-' bodiment of our invention, we do not wish to limit" 3 ourselves'precisely to-these details. since manifestly. the same may be considerably varied without departing from the spirit of the invention'as defined in the appended claim.
Having thus described our inventionfive claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
In a board attaching clip, atubular body member for loosely receiving the shank of a driven headed attaching member, outstanding flanges on said body member for engaging and supporting adjacent edges of building boards, projecting shoulders on certain of said flanges for maintaining said boards in spaced relation to a frame member. and means for closing said body member to the entrance of plaster.
