  • This invention relates to roofing and siding sheets and the like and fastening means, especially concealed fastening means for securing them to structural members.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a fastening clip for internally securing a member having a hollow section e.g. a ribbed sheet, to a structural member.
  • rotatable latching means are provided for engaging in a pocket in the hollow section.
  • side walls of the clip are designed for insertion into pockets in two walls of the hollow section. It is another object to provide locking means in both types of clip to hold the clip in place when engaging the pocket or pockets.
  • the members having a hollow section include but are not limited to roofing, siding and other cladding members, panels and sheets, including e.g. fascias, and securing, covering and edging strips or units for building and like purposes.

  • Semi-resilient wall 68 with its extension portion is preferably secured to base wall by an eyelet device 128 or by riveting or spot welding.
  • Eyelet device 128 also provides a fixing hole 130 for a nail or screw, similar holes 132 and 134 being provided in nailing flange 70 and base wall 124 respectively and providing means for securing the clip 64 to a structural member.
  • the fixing channel of sheet 10" (or, in another example, the fixing channel of a part sheet) is first screwed or nailed to the purlin.

  • pocket 52 of female rib 14 rides down over flange 32 of latching means 36 and the flange springs into pocket 52 as shown in FIG. 3. In this manner the female and male ribs are securely locked together and cannot part through wind suction loading on the surface of the sheet.
  • FIG. is shown the method of securing an intermediate rib to a purlin.
  • the end portion of a sheet has the locating means 120 of fixing strap 118 (shown by dotted lines) inserted under fixing channel 18 of male rib 12' and the rib and strap are secured by a nail or screw 136 to the purlin.
  • nails or screws 138 and 140 secure the strap and base wall through holes 132 and 130.
  • the female rib 14 of the next sheet 10 is then clipped onto male rib 1 2 as previously explained.
  • Intermediate rib 16 is thus positioned over rib clip 64 as shown in FIG.
  • semi-springy wall 80 of locking means 72 is sprung inwardly of locking means 72 as edge 103 of slot 96 bears against it until walls 66 and 68 are closed together when lip 82 springs through the slot and locates over the surface of wall 68.
  • walls '66 and 68 are fastened together with locking means 72 holding securely latching means 94 in engagement with pocket 62 of the rib.
  • the latching means are additionally secured by upturned flange 98 beneath the hinge part 92 of flange 90 (see FIG. 8).
  • the rib is simultaneously secured to the rib clip by flange 114 of latching ledge 110 which snaps over edge 146 of pocket 60 and into said pocket thereby engaging the edge 14 6.
  • Provision of the fixing strap 118 with its locating means 120 enables the rib clip 64 to be positioned correctly to receive the rib 16 before the sheet 10 is brought into place.
  • the length of the strap is such that the first and second latching means of the clip will be at the desired distance from the male rib 12' of the neighbouring sheet (and hence the desired distance from the interengaging female rib 14) to locate correctly in the pockets '62, 60 of the intermediate rib 16.
  • the correct positioning of a concealed fastening clip when there is no access or insufficient access to it when the sheet is being brought into place has proved a difficult problem to overcome but the clip as shown in FIG. 4 provides an answer to the difficulty.
  • FIGS. 9, 10, 11 and 12 is shown another form of fixing clip 148 for securing sheet 10 to a purlin or other structural member.
  • Clip 148 is made of sheet metal or other suitable material and it comprises a base wall 150 and two inclined semi-springy side walls 152.
  • Base wall 150 has an extension comprising a wall with overlapping and folded down side portions 158 comprising a fixing plate 160.
  • One end of the fixing plate 160 has a lip 162 and the other end has camming means 164 comprising a tongue 166, overlying the base wall 150.
  • One end 168 of base wall 150 provides a hinge line 170 (shown dotted in FIG. 9).
  • Fixing holes 172 and 174 are provided in the fixing plate 160.
  • In the wall 150 are positioned two internal stiffening beads 176.
  • Rib clip 148 has its side walls 152 made at a slightly more open angle to each other and to the base wall 150 than the angle of the side walls of the intermediate rib 16 to each other and to the top wall of the rib so that when the rib clip 148 is inserted into the pockets 60 and 62 at one end of rib 16 there is sufficient spring tension of the walls of the clip against the rib walls to prevent too easy sliding movement of the Clip in the rib.
  • roofing sheet 10 may have a plurality of ribs in each of which are carried a number of rib clips at such positions that they may be secured to purlins on the roof. Sheets are packed together for transport in the usual manner as the inserted clips do not interfere with the nesting of the ribs together.
  • each rib clip 148 On the roof of a building the sheets are assembled on the purlins as previously explained and fixing plate of each rib clip 148 is bent downwardly at hinge line by grasping and pulling down the lip 162.
  • the camming means 164 rotates upwardly and bears tightly on the underside of the top wall of the rib 16 so causing the side walls 152 to move down further into pockets 60 and 62 of rib 16, thus becoming securely engaged and locked in the pockets.
  • rib clip 148 cannot rattle in rib 16 when sheet 10 is subjected to wind loading.
  • the locking between the clip and the rib is not made so tight as to prevent a limited amount of sliding of the clip in the rib when the rib is subjected to thermal movement.
  • rib clip 148 is shown secured by a nail 178 through hole 174 in fixing plate 160, to a wood purlin 180.
  • the concealed fastening of the clip in the rib provides a leak proof connection with an unmarred outer surface of the rib, a particularly valuable feature when sheets are made from pre-painted materials.
  • the predrilled hole 174 provides a much quicker fastening method than when holes have to be punched through the top of the rib as in conventional methods of fixing roofing sheets and damage which can arise from such processes is completely eliminated.
  • FIG. 12 the fastening clip 148 locked in rib 16 is shown secured ,to a metal purlin 182.
  • a standard hook bolt 184 has its hook 186 inserted into the hole 172 of rib clip 148 and its threaded end 188 is fitted with a nut 190 to secure an attachment clip 192 to purlin 180, thus holding the purlin and rib clip in secure contact.
  • the rib clip can be used either for bolting it to steel or nailing it to wood structures to provide a positive fixing of the roofing sheet to the building.
  • the invention may be applied to many forms of securing devices for sheets and panels, particularly in the building industry as the external appearance of the securing device is not confined to any particular cross sectional shape.
  • the invention may be used, for example, for securing panelling to walls of a building and/or covering the edges of such panelling.
  • a rib section similar to rib 16 and constituting a member having a hollow section as above referred to may thus be used as a covering and/or securing piece. It may be made from sheet metal, or plastics and may be used to securely fasten the edges of panels to a building by use in conjunction with the rib section of a clip having rotating latching and camming means similar to those above described.
  • the edge or edges of one or more panels may be engaged and covered by the rib section as it is engaged by the rib clip which is first secured to the building adjacent the edge or edges of the panel or panels.
