SIDNEY J 7 RADEKE ATTORNEYS Patented May 17, 1949 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE FURRING CLIP Sidney J. Radeke, Ann Arbor, 'Mich. Application February 18, 1946, Serial No. 648,264
Claims. 1
The invention relates to the furring of masonry walls to form .a support for the plastered wal -land to leave an air space therebetween.
.It is the object of the invention .to accomplish this tuning by the use of metallic clips of peculiar construction and to this end the invention consists in the construction as hereinafter set forth.
In the drawings:
l is an elevation of the slitted blank from which aplurality of clips-of different specificconstructions may be formed;
Figs. .2, -3 :and 4 are perspective views of different clips formed from the blank;
Fig. 5 'is a horizontal section showing the clip aas attached to a masonry wall and supporting plaster boards spaced from said wall;
Fig. .6 is a vertical section of Fig. .5;
Figs. '7 and 7A are sections on .line 71-1., Fig. .2, "respectively beztore and subsequent to the driving of the securin nail therethrough;
Fig. 8 is a horizontal section showing the .specificclip of Fig. 4as applied to an inner corner of the masonry wall;
.Fig. 9 is a similar view of the clip shown in Fig.3 as applied to an outer masonry wall.
In the f-urring of masonry walls it is usual to use woodstrips secured to the inner face of said wall .and to which the lathin for the plaster wall is nailed. There are various objections to this construction such as the shrinking and swelling of the strips due to different moisture conditions :and also twisting and buckling, .all of which disturb the plaster wall. Furthermore, the wood strips interrupt the'air space between the plaster and the masonry wall. With my improved construction these objections are overcome and var- .ious other advantages are gained.
The clips are preferably formed or sheet metal sand in case .sheetsteel iS used, are suitably rust- .proof. The sheet metal blank .A is of rectangu- Jar formand is laterally slitted .on opposite sides of a central portion thereof. Preierably there are four pairs of slits A, A A A which extend from the opposite edges inward but. leave a central unslitted portion A This divides the blank into five pairs of separately bendable tongue portions, the central pair A being wider than those on opposite ends thereof. There is also a nail receiving aperture A at the center of the blank. Where the clip is to be used on a straight masonry wall, it is fashioned into the term IB, shown in'Fig. 2. The upper and lower pairs of 'tongues are bent to have outwardly extending portions 5'' and laterally extending portions B The tongues next adjacent to the end pairs are left in the original plane and thus are spaced from the portions B by a dimension equal to the thickness of the plaster board. The central tongues are bent to form portions B which lie adjacent to each other and are perpendicular to the original plane of the blank. These portions are attached to each other by suitable means, such as spot welding or riveting, at points B on opposite sides of the center. To attach the clip to the masonry wall the portions B are placed against the wall and a nail, such as C, is engaged with the aperture A and driven inward spreading the center of the portions B to pass therebetween and into the wall. These portions B therefore, form a reinforcement for the hall that holds the same from bending. The plaster board sections may then be placed between the portions B and the next adjacent tongues B which are in the original plane.
To form an inside corner the construction D, shown in Fig. 4, is used. This is formed from'the same blank A but the central tongues A are bent at an angle of 45 to the original plane on opposite sides of the portion A to storm portions D" at right angles to each other. The next adjacent tongues D are bent at an angle of 45 to the original plane but oppositely from the portions D. The end tongues have portions D bent parallel to and in the same plane as the portions and are rebent to form portions D which are parallel to the portions D but spaced therefrom by the dimension of the portion D In applying this to the corner as shown'in'Fi-g. 8, the portions D are placed against the two walls of the corner and a nail is driven through the aperture A into the corner of the masonry wall. The plaster board sections are then placed between the tongues D and D and are held thereby.
The construction E, shown in Fig. 3, is applied to an outer corner of a masonry wall. This 'construction is formed from a slitted blank, such as A,'but slightly modified in that the-slits A andA are shorter extending only to the points A, Fig. l. The portions centrally between the slits A and A of the .blank are bent at an angle of "45 to the original plane to form portions E which extend at right angles to each other. The portions E between the shorter slits A and A are bent at right angles to the portions E which brings them also at right angles to each other. These portions E contact against the masonry wall on opposite sides of the corner and space the portions E therefrom. The end tongues of the blank are bent in the same manner as in the construction of Fig. 4 so as to form similar spaced tongues E and E for engaging opposite faces of the plaster board sections. Thus, all three constructions illustrated in Figs. 2, 3 and 4 are formed from a slitted blank, which is substantially the same being modified only in shortening the slits A and A for the construction of Fig. 3.
What I claim as my invention is:
A clip for holding a wall board spaced from a supporting wall comprising a sheet metal blank laterally and parallelly slitted upon opposite sides of a central portion thereof to form a plurality of pairs of tongues, certain of said tongues being ofiset from but parallel to the original plane to embrace between the same and other of said tongues in said plane the wall board, and still other of said tongues being bent to extend perpendicular to the aforesaid tongues and the supporting wall into contact with the latter.
