SOLOM ON DAVIS, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 754,855, dated March 15, 1904:.
Application filed October 28, 1903. Serial No. 178,915. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, SOLOMON DAvIs, a citizen of the United States, residing in Manhattan borough, New York city, county and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Securing Strips of Wood and other Material to Iron Beams, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to that class of metal hangers used in securing strips of wood to iron beams of ceilings.
The object of my invention is to facilitate the support of wooden strips without the use of screws or nails. This I accomplish by passing the two hooks over the lower flange of the beam, passing the strip between the continuation of the two hooks, and driving the hooks together, when the projections on the inside of the hooks enter and hold securely the Wood strips.
This invention is set forth in the following specification and claims and illustrated in the annexed drawings, in which- Figure 1 shows a hanger before being bent into shape. Fig. 2 shows a manner of use. Fig. 3 is an end view of Fig. 2. Fig. ishows another application of the invention to use. Fig. 5 shows a plan view of Fig. 4:. Fig. 6 shows a section along in 02, Fig. 5. Fig. 7 shows a further application of the invention.
The blank or piece of sheet metal consists of a pair of hooks a a, joined by a cross-bar b and having prongs 0 c. The blank is fastened to a strip of molding d by bending the hooks along the lines e e to point at right angles to the cross-bar b. The blank is then securely fastened to the said molding by the prongs c 0. The molding can be easily hung or held suspended over the flange of a girder by the hooks a (0, thereby supporting the molding and providing asilnple and eflicient method of attaching the molding to the girder or iron beam. The prongs c, engaging the strip or molding, and the hooks (a being in pairs or suitably spaced or separated, a firm connection and steady support are secured. The cross-piece I) sits across the top of the strip, and the attaching portions or prongs 0 engage the sides, so as to be clear of or leave the under face of the strip exposed, thus the under face of the strip when the wires are in place, as seen in Fig. 4.
The molding or strip can be of wood or other material. A metallic molding d, as shown in Fig. 7, and the attaching portions can be crimped or made to engage the molding at c. A capping-piece or tin strip can be snapped or sprung into the under or open part of the mold when the wires are in place.
In Fig. 2 the strip (Z runs transverse to the beam.
In Fig. 4 the strip and beam lie parallel to one another. Hooks f, engaging the beam, support a cross strap or carrier g, by which hook part a of the hanger or attaching portions 0 is supported.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A hanger comprising hook portions, attaching portions and a cross or joining strip uniting the two .portions, said hook portions being made to face in the same direction and said attaching portions being open or spaced at their lower ends to expose the under face of the strip or article engaged thereby.
2. A hanger formed of one piece of material and comprising hook and attaching portions with a cross or uniting strip intermediate the attaching portions, said hook portions being made to face in the same direction and said attaching portions being located at the extremities of the cross portion and depending below the same and spaced or open to expose the under face of a strip or article engaged thereby.
molding, the hooks being made to face in the I that the cross-piece can be seated on the top of a molding While the attaching portions en gage the sides thereof.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
SOLOMON DAVIS.
