HOLDING BRACKET Filed July 22, 1955 IN VENTOR. ANGELO d. Blsnup United States Patent HOLDING BRACKET Angelo J. Biskup, Cedar Rapids, Iowa Application July 22, 1955, Serial No. 523,726
1 Claim. (Cl. 248-48.1)
This invention relates in general to holding brackets and in particular to an eave trough supporting bracket.
It is desirable to install cave troughs along the edges of the roofs of buildings so as to collect and control the flow of water.
It is an object of this invention therefore, to provide a bracket for holding an eave trough so that it may be easily and correctly installed.
Another object is to provide an eave trough bracket which allows one man to correctly install an eave trough.
A feature of this invention is found in the provision for an eave trough bracket which is adjustable to allow an eave trough to be installed.
Further objects, features and advantages of this invention will become apparent from the following description and claim when read in view of the drawing in which the figure illustrates a vertical board which is attached about the caves of a house beneath the roof 11. A horizontal board 12 extends from the board 10 back to the wall of the house.
The board 10 is cut away for purposes of clarity. The cut portion is designated as 13 in the drawing.
The cave trough 14 is to be attached to the board 10 so as to catch the water from the roof 11 to control its flow.
A clamp comprising board engaging portions 16 and 17 engages the lower portion of board 10 beneath the horizontal board 12. The engaging portion 17 has a lower vertical portion 21. The board engaging portion 16 extends under the board 10 and has a downwardly extending portion 18 and a horizontal portion 19 which engages the vertical portion 21.
A pair of screws 22 extend through the portions 18 and 21 respectively and may be tightened by wing nuts 23 to firmly attach the clamps to the board 10.
A block 24 is attached to the face of the portion 18 and is formed with a vertical hole through which a rod 26 extends. A screw 27 is threadedly received in the block 24 to lock the rod 26 in position.
2,879,962 Patented Mar. 31, 1959 The upper end 28 of the rod 26 has an cave trough engaging portion 29.
In operation, when it is desired to attach an eave trough 14 to the vertical board 10 a pair of clamps such as shown in the figure may be used. The clamps may be attached to the board 10 by use of the wing nuts 23, and the rods 26 may be adjusted to approximately the correct height. Then the cave trough 14 may be set on the two brackets and each rod 26 adjusted vertically until the correct fall is attained. It is to be realized, of course, that it is desirable to have a certain fall over the length of the cave trough so that the water will quickly run to the outward end.
It is seen that this invention provides an cave trough bracket which allows one man to quickly and accurately install an eave trough thus making a great saving in labor and at the same time assuring accuracy of the installation. After the cave trough is correctly positioned it is attached to the board 10 in a conventional manner and the bracket is removed.
Although this invention has been described with respect to a particular modification it is not to be so limited that changes and modifications which are within the full intended scope of the appended claim are not covered.
I claim:
Apparatus for attaching an eave trough to a vertical member connected under the roof of a house comprising, a first engaging portion having a lower vertical section and an upper inclined section, said vertical section formed with a pair of openings, a second engaging portion with a first vertical section engageable with the vertical member and a first horizontal section engageable with the lower edge of said vertical member, a second vertical section attached to the first horizontal section and formed with a pair of openings and a second horizontal section attached to the lower edge of the second vertical section, a pair of screws receivable through the openings in the first and second engaging portions, Wing nuts receivable on the screws, a block attached to the second engaging portion and formed with a vertical opening, a screw receivable in said block, and an L-shaped rod receivable through the opening in said block and an eave trough which is to be attached to said vertical member supported by the upper portion of the L.- shaped rod.
