ATTACHMENT FOR UNITING METAL OR WOOD BEAMS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 699,976, dated May 13, 1902. Application filed August 19, 1901. Serial No. 72,494. (No model.)
To (ZZZ whom it "may concern.-
Be it known that I, J ERRE T. RICHARDS, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, county of New York, State of New York,
have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Attachments for Uniting Metal or Wood Beams; and I declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to means for securing small beams to the flanges of larger ones and furringout or preparing structural work for receiving-the final finish of metal lath and plaster or securing floor-sleepers to the floorbeams or any construction where any member can be attached tothe flange of I-beams; and it consists in peculiar wire clip constructed and operated as hereinafter described and as claimed,
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View of the attachment in place and shown as securing a small beam to the flange of an I-beam, the continuation of the I-beam being broken away for the purpose of showing the attachment more clearly. Fig. 2 is a detached clip before being used. Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the flange of the beam with a pair of clips placed therein and before the insertion of the small beam. Fig. 4 is a sectional view of the part or flange of the main beam and clip and small beam inserted, showing the manner in which the clip is rigidly held to the flange of the main beam by virtue of the insertion of the smaller beam.
Similar letters refer to similar part-s.
In the drawings, A is a large beam having flanges a 0., and it is obvious that this beam may be made in form like a T-beam, provided it has the flanges a a, to which the clips may be attached.
B is a wire clipfor med of a single piece of stiff wire'and preferably formed before assembling the parts, as shown in Fig. 2. 'In its construction it is formed by. lapping a single piece of wire, commencing at b, and
having a return-bendat b, a portion 1) returning practically upon the portion from b to b", an angle at 73 which is perpendicular and very nearly at right angles to the portion 19 a stirrup b, a return portion b an angular portion b corresponding to 11 a close return-bend b and a return-tongue b The ends or tongues b b are in a line substantially corresponding to the angle 6 b bent downward to conform to the edge of the flange a of the beam A or of the beam upon which it is to be placed. These ends project slightly below the line of the upper face of a furringbeam or smaller beam 0, the upper edge of the beam 0 being shown in a dotted line at c in Fig. 3, and when the beam 0 is in place the ends b b of the clip, owing to the clasticity of the clip'as a whole, press with some force upon the upper edge of the beam 0 and correspondingly depress and grip the top of the flange a of the bearnA at the bends 1) 11 It is the form of the clip and this particular mode of gripping the'flange, and thus forcibly holding the smaller beam to the larger by means of the projecting ends or tongues of the wire, which constitutes the essence of my invention.
shown in Fig. 1 in order to attach the smaller beam to the larger by their means. This form requires no tools provided the clips are manufactured prior to the assembling of the parts.
It is obvious that the beam A might be longitudinal or vertical and the clip applied to either flange for securing either iron orwooden beams; also, that the return-bend at 1) 17*, Fig. 2, may be outward and return together at 1) 19 so as to bear upon beam 0, so the clip be sprung over the beam 0 to place at any point.
What I desire to claim is- 1. As a new article of manufacture,"a wire clip for sustaining one small'beam to another formed with two extended tongues adapted to cooperate with the smaller beam to compel the clip to grip the larger beam and forcibly hold the smaller beam closely thereto, sub- I to be taken upon the flange of the sustainingstantially as described. beam, substantially as described. 10
2. The combination of a sustaining-beam, In testimony whereof I sign this specificasuspended beam and a spring-metal clip, the tion in the presence of two witnesses.
clip being extended along the upper surface I JERRE T. RICHARDS. of the suspended beam and by the wedging action of such beam between the extended ends to the stirrup thereof compelling a grip Witnesses:
