Description
Patented Get. 28, 1952 MOUNTING Norman E. Haslop, North Ridgeville, Ohio, as-
signor to The Lakeside Metal Stamping 00.,
Cleveland, Ohio Application May 23, 1950, Serial-No. 163,749
3 Claims.
This invention relates to a mounting for overhanging structures such as canopies, awnings, andthe like. 1
At the present time there are many types of roof-like structures, canopies, awnings, and louvered structures adapted to be fastened to a vertical wall such as a side of a house or building. In hanging or mounting of these structures on the wall the mounting must be strong enough to withstand weather conditions. The mounting should also be water tight whereby water running down the side of the wall will run off the overhanging structure and not between the overhanging structure and the wall.
An object of my invention is to provide an economical and sturdy mounting for canopies and similar structures.
Another object is to provide a canopy mounting wherein the back side edge portion of the canopy top serves as a flashing.
Another object is to provide a mounting comprising a substantially U-shaped channel member fastenable to the wall and a depending tie member fastenable along the back side edge of the canopy top and seata ble in the channel member.
Another object of the invention is to provide a mounting for a roof-like structure wherein the top of the structure has a back edge resiliently urged against the wall to serve as a flashing and prevent rain water running down the wall through the mounting.
Other objects and a fuller understanding of the invention may be had by referring to the following description and claims, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure l is a front elevational view of a canopy supported by my mounting.
Figure 2 is an end view of a canopy supported by my mounting.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary enlargement of the mounting used for mounting the canopy of Fig ures l and 2 to a vertical wall.
The mounting herein described and disclosed may be used on roof-like structures, canopies, louvered structures, awnings or any other similar structure which are to be mounted on a vertical wall such as a wall of a house or other building. In the present instance the drawings and description as well as some of the claims refer to the mounting of a canopy since I have mounted canopies in this disclosed manner.
The canopy illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 as a canopy top member Ill and end panels H which are fastened to opposite ends of the canopy top member Ill. The reference character I2 desighates the vertical wall on which the canopy is mounted.
The mounting for the canopy is best illustrated in the fragmentary enlarged view of Figure 3. This mounting comprises a modified U-shaped channel opening upwardly and bearing reference character 15. The modified U-shaped channel I5 has openings 16 in one side thereof through which screws 11 or other suitable fasteners extend to secure the U-shaped channel to the wall 12. The modified U-shaped channel I5 has a length substantially equal to the distance between the end panels II or the length of the top member Ill.
Fastened to the undersurface of the top member H1 is a tie member I8 which extends downwardly and is seatable in the elongated modified U-shaped channel which opens upwardly. In the present instance the tie member I8 is in the form of an angle member having one side bolted to the undersurface of the top member ill by bolts l9. The other leg 20 of the angle member or tie member depends from and extends downwardly into seating engagement with the modified U- shaped channel 15. The tie member I8 is fastened along the back side and to the undersurface of the top member 10.
I have found it desirable to provide the top member ID with an upwardly extending flashing portion 2| extending along the back side thereof. The flashing portion is joined with the major portion of the top member l0 and is resiliently cooperative therewith whereby the top edge 22 of the flashing portion is urged against the wall l2. The flashing portion 21 is preferably provided with screw holes 23 through which holding screws 24 may be screwed into the wall 12 to hold the tie member 18 seated in the modified U-shaped channel Hi.
It has also been found desirable to provide the top member ID with crimped portions 25 extending parallel to the flashing portion 2|. These crimped portions '25 add stiffness, strength, and better water shed characteristics to the canopy or other structure. Water must run substantially horizontally along these crimped portions and off the ends of the top member ID. The crimped portions 25 are preferably constructed with the same dimensions and at the same angle to the major part of the top member In as the flashing portion.
In mounting a canopy on a wall the modified U-s'haped channel I5 is secured to the wall in a horizontal plane with the channel opening upwardly. The tie member 18 has previously been fastened to the undersurface of the top member along the back side thereof. The canopy is next positioned above the channel and the depending tie member l8 aligned for seating in the modified U-shaped channel. After the weight of the canopy rests on the tie member which is seated in the U-shaped channel the holding screws may be inserted through the flashing portion 2| to prevent unseating of the tie member from the channel.
It is understood that other modifications of the present invention may be resorted to with-out departing from the spirit and scope thereof and that the present disclosure has been made only by way of example with the invention being claimed as follows.
What is claimed is: 1. In a canopy mounted on a vertical wall, a
canopy including a roof portion extending out Wardly from the vertical wall at a first angle thereto and also including an upturned back edge portion joining the roof portion in a resilient bend line portion and at a second angle thereto, said second angle being greater than said first angle before said canopy is mounted on said wall, a canopy supporting means horizontally secured to said wall, said canopy and said supporting means having cooperative pivot connectionslocated generally at said bend line, and means between said roof portion and said wall to hold said roof portion at said first angle to said wall and to decrease said second angle when said canopy-is mounted on said wall by resiliently bending said bend line portion for causing said back edge to seat tightly against said Wall thereby constituting a waterproof flashing.
2. In a canopy mounted on a vertical wall, a canopy including a roof portion extending outwardly from the vertical wall ata first angle thereto and also including an upturned back edge portion joining the roof portion in a resilient bend line portion and at a second angle there- 'to, said second angle being greater than said first angle before said canopy is mounted on said wall, a modified U-shaped channel member horizontally secured to said wall and opening upwardly, a depending member on said canopy extending generally along said bend line and pivotally seated in said channel member, and means between said roof portion and said wall to hold said roof portion at said first angle to saidwall and to decrease said second angle when said canopy is mounted on said wall by resiliently bending said bend line portion for causing said back edge to seat tightly against said wall thereby constituting a waterproof flashing.
3. In a canopy mounted on a vertical wall, a
canopy of springable sheet material including a l5 roof portion extending outwardly from the vertical wall at a first angle thereto and also including an upturned back edge portion joining the roof portion in a bend line and at a second angle thereto, said second angle being greater than said first angle before said canopy is mounted on said wall, a modified U-shaped channel member horizontally secured to said wall and opening upwardly, a depending member on said canopy extending generally along said bend line and pivotally seated in said channel member, and means between said roof portion and said wall to hold said roof portion at said first angle to said wall and to decreasesaid second angle when said canopy is mounted on said wall by resiliently bending said bend line portion for causing said back edge to seat tightly against said Wall thereby constituting a waterproof flashing.
