Claims.
This invention relates to building constructions and has reference more particularly to metallic stud and runner partition constructions.
In the construction of the frames of buildings,
partitions, walls, etc., it is customary to use metallic studs of various forms, which are attached at top and bottom to ceiling and floor channel runners respectively. Metallic shoes or wires are commonly used for attachment of the stud ends to the channels. These devices are rather costly to erect and also add to the cost of material for a wall or partition.
An object of the invention therefore, is to provide a quick attaching means for the tops and bottoms of metallic studs.
Another object of the invention is to provide a metallic stud building construction which may be easily and quickly erected; also to improve building constructions in other respects hereinafter specified and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, in which Fig. 1 is a sectional elevation showing our improved partition construction, and
Fig. 2 is a perspective elevation showing the partition.
Referring to the drawing by numerals, a partition stud I0 is composed of spaced pairs of chord wires ll connected by a sinuous web wire l2 which is spot welded to the wires I l at the points of contact. A U-shaped extension member [3 is provided with upstanding legs l4 connected by a web wire I 5. The upper ends iii of legs 14 are spread slightly and are provided at their upper ends with outstanding lugs II. An upper channel runner l8 has a web l9 which is nailed or otherwise secured to the ceiling of a room. Downstanding flanges 20 on the web l9 are provided with spaced holes 2| into which the lugs H extend to support the upper end of the stud from the runner flanges 20. The extension wires l6 have a spring action so that the lugs I! may be snapped into place in the holes 2|. Tie wires 22 and 23 are used to attach the extension member l3 to the chord wires II in the desired position.
A horizontally extending wire 25 is spot Welded between the lower ends of chord wires H with slightly protruding ends 26. A channel runner 21 is formed of a web 28 and upwardly extending flanges 29 which have spaced perforations 30. In assembling the stud on the runner 22, the bottom of said stud II] is placed obliquely within the flanges 29 with one wire end 26 in a hole 30. The
stud is then rotated slightly so as to spread the flanges 29 until the second wire end 26 snaps into the opposite hole 30 to securely lock the stud III to the runner 21. After the studs III are attached to the runners l8 and 21, expanded metal lath 32 or other suitable plaster base, may be attached to the chord wires II by tie wires and a coating of plaster 33 is then applied to the lath 32 for the purpose of forming a finished partition.
With the structure described, the studs II] are easily attached to the runners l8 and 21 without the use of special shoes or attachingparts. The labor of erection is reduced to a minimum. Other types of metallic studs can of course be used.
We would state in conclusion that while the example illustrated constitutes a practical embodiment of our invention, we do not limit ourselves precisely to these details, since manifestly the same may be considerably varied without departing from the spirit of the invention as described in the appended claims.
Having thus described our invention, we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. In a partition structure, a channel runner having outstanding perforated flanges, said runner being secured in a horizontal position, and a metallic stud having yielding legs, each of said legs being provided with outstanding parts removably engaging in said flange perforations when said legs are flexed.
2. In a partition structure, a channel runner having outstanding perforated flanges, said runner being secured in a horizontal position, and a metallic stud having outstanding parts arranged to engage in said flange perforations when said stud is partly rotated, said flanges being arranged to flex slightly to permit said parts to engage in said perforations.
3. In a partition. structure, a metallic stud having spaced chord wires connected by a sinuous web wire, a U-shaped extension member secured to one end of said stud, said member having outstanding legs terminating in transversely extending lugs, a channel runner having outstanding perforated flanges, said lugs being arranged to engage in the perforations of said flanges to maintain said stud in position when said legs are flexed, a channel runner positioned adjacent the opposite end of said stud, said runner also having outstanding perforated flanges, and outstanding parts on said opposite stud end for engaging in said second mentioned perforations when said stud is partly rotated.
4. A partition structure as defined in claim 3 characterized by lathing secured to a face of ends extending beyond said chord wires, said ends being arranged to engage in said flange perforations when said stud is partly rotated, said flanges being arranged to flex slightly to permit said ends 6 to engage in said perforations.
