MICHAEL F. BURK, OF LYNN, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO JOHN B. KENISON, OF SAME PLACE.
FOLDING SHlNGLlNG-BRACKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No:511,721, dated December 26, 1893.
Application filed May 12, 1893- Serial No. 473,912. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, MICHAEL E. BURK, of Lynn, county of Essex, State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Folding Shingling-Brackets, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like letters and figures on the drawings representing like parts.
This invention has for its object to improve the construction of folding shingling brackets, used to support the staging when shingling, and my invention consists in details of construction to be hereinafter pointed out.
Figure 1, shows in perspective a folding shingling bracket embodying this invention; Fig. 2, a plan view of the folded bracket; Fig. 3, a side view of the folded bracket, and Fig. 4, an end view of the bracket in condition for use.
The wall plate a, or that plate which abuts against the building, is made of sheet metal, having its side edges a, upturned at right angles, for substantially its entire length, the
upper end portion a however remaining flat. The sole plate b is likewise made of sheet metal, its side edges Z) being turned downward for the entire length. The sole plate is narrower than the wall plate, so that when 0 pivoted to said wall plate at one end as at 2, and folded down upon said wall plate it will enter between the upturned side edges 1), as shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
The brace rod 0, composed of arod of steel 5 or equivalent material, is pivoted at its lower end at 3, to the wall plate, and has formed upon its upper end a bent spur or hook which is adapted to pass through a hole 4, in the sole plate to thereby rigidly hold the parts in 0p- 0 erative position. The sole plate will be provided with several such holes 4, sothat the parts may be rigidly supported at diiferent angles with relation to each other. When the parts are folded the rod 0, will occupy a position between the wall and sole plates as represented by dotted lines Fig. 3, its hooked end resting upon the pivot 2. The fiat end portion 0?, of the wall plate is provided with several holes 5, three being herein shown, each having a slot 6, leading from it. To secure the bracket to the building nails are driven through said holes 5, into the building, and the bracket drawn down, so that the shanks of said nails will enter the slots 6, or said nails may be driven through said slots. As this end portion is thin and flat and the nails project but slightly, a course of shingles may be laid directly over said end portion withoutinterference, after which the bracket may be advanced by a blow sufficiently to bring the shanks of the nails into the holes 5, and then the bracket may be removed from said nails without withdrawing them from the building. This is a material advantage as no holes are left in the building as is usual when removing the staging.
I claim The folding shingling bracket herein shown and described, consisting of the wall plate (1, having upturned side edges a, and the fiat end portion a provided with holes 5, having slots 6, leading therefrom, the sole plate I), having downwardly turned side edges 1), and pivotally connected to the wall plate, and having several holes 4, and the brace rod 0, pivotally connected to the wall plate and having a hooked end to engage the sole plate, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
MICHAEL F. BURK.
