- FIG 15 is a perspective view of the clip assembly which incorporates the clip and the strap shown in Figures 13 and 14, respectively;
- Figure 16 is a perspective view of the end sections of another strap in accordance with the present invention.
- the retaining clip 3 and the clip assembly are formed to retain a cladding sheet, generally identified by the numeral 7 ( Figures 2 and 4), to an underlying structure, such as roof purlins (not shown) .
- the cladding sheet 7 is roll-formed from a flat sheet and includes a leading edge 8, a trailing edge 10, a series of parallel ribs, generally identified by the numeral 11, and a series of pans 13.
- each rib 11 of the cladding sheet 7 includes an upper section 51 which separates two sides, generally identified by the numeral 53.
- Each side 53 includes a first section 55 which extends outwardly and downwardly from the upper section 51, a second section 15 which extends downwardly and inwardly from the lower edge of the first section 55, and a third section 57 which extends downwardly and outwardly from the lower edge of the second section 15 and merges with the pan
- the second sections 15 of each rib 11 are formed approximately half-way between the pan 13 and the upper section 51 of the ribs 11.
- the second sections 15 of each rib 11 define opposed re-entrant portions of the rib 11 and are hereinafter referred to as "re-entrant portions 15".
- This form of rib is more straight-forward to manufacture than the rib profile disclosed in Australian patent 457099.
- the leading and trailing edges 8, 10 of the cladding sheet 7 are formed as partially completed ribs 11 in order to facilitate interlocking of successive cladding sheets and, by way of example, include at least one re-entrant portion 15.
- These partially completed ribs are hereinafter referred to as “leading edge formations” and “trailing edge formations”.
- the clip 3 shown in Figures 1, 3 and 4 is formed by bending a flat metal blank into the configuration shown in the figures .
- the clip 3 includes:
- the platform 17 includes a central opening 25 for a screw or other suitable fastener which can fasten the clip 3 to an underlying structure.
- the clip assembly shown in Figures 1, 3 and 4 includes four clips 3 mounted to a strap 23.
- Figure 3 shows a section of the clip assembly 5 which includes two of the four clips 3 mounted to the strap 23.
- the spacing of the clips 3 on the strap 23 is selected to be the same as the spacing of the leading edge formation 8, the ribs 11, and the trailing edge formation 10 of the cladding sheet 7.
- the clip assembly 5 may be any suitable length and may include any suitable number of clips 3 at any required spacing.
- the strap 23 shown in Figures 1, 3 and 4 is in the form of a shallow downwardly-facing channel and includes a leading end (not shown) and a trailing end (not shown) that are shaped in a conventional manner so that the leading end of a second strap to be positioned on the underlying structure can be located to overlap the trailing edge of a first strap that is secured to the structure and thereby generally align the two straps.
- the strap 23 also includes openings (not shown) that are aligned with the openings 25 in the platforms 17 of the clips 3 so that the screws or other suitable fasteners can extend directly through the aligned openings and into the underlying structure.
- the outwardly and downwardly extending tabs 19 of the clip 3 is formed so that, in use, a terminal end 27 of each tab 19 contacts the inside surface of one of the re- entrant portions 15 of a rib 11 or a leading edge formation
- each tab 19 is relatively short, preferably less than 40% of the width W of the platform separating the tabs 19. This relatively short tab length makes it possible to balance the conflicting requirements of providing the tabs with:
- each leg 21 includes a major part 22 that is located in a plane that is transverse to the ribs 11 of the cladding sheet 7 when, in use, the clip 3 is secured to the underlying structure and the cladding sheet 7 is located on the clip 3.
- Forming the clip 3 so that the major part of each leg 21 is transverse to the ribs 11 provides the clip 3 with structural rigidity and is an important feature of the embodiment of the clip 3 on this basis.
- each leg 21 also includes inwardly-turned sides 31 that extend parallel to the ribs 11 of the cladding sheet 7 when, in use, the cladding sheet 7 is located on the clip 3.
- the in-turned sides 31 further contribute to the structural rigidity of the clip 3.
- the clip 3 shown in Figures 1, 3 and 4 is formed as a single component by pre-cutting to a required profile and then bending a single flat sheet of steel strip. Accordingly, manufacture of the clip 3 is a relatively straight-forward exercise compared to many prior art clips.
- a required number of the clip assemblies 5 shown in Figures 1,3 and 4 are secured to the underlying structure by screws or other fasteners positioned to extend through the openings 25 in the clips 3 and the aligned openings in the straps 23.
- cladding sheets 7 are successively placed over the underlying structure in overlapping relationship and successively the leading edge formation 8, the ribs 11, and the trailing edge formation 10 of each of the sheets 7 are pressed onto the clips 3 so that the leading edge formation 8, the ribs 11, and the trailing edge formation 10 deflect outwardly and the retaining tabs 19 deflect inwardly and allow the leading edge formation 8, the ribs 11, and the trailing edge formation 10 to be snap fitted over the clips 3 with the tabs 19 contacting the re-entrant portions 15 and thereby retaining the sheets 7 to the underlying structure.
- the retaining clip 3 and the clip assembly 5 shown in Figure 5 are very similar to the clip 3/clip assembly 5 shown in Figures 1, 3 and 4 and the same reference numerals are used to indicate the same components .
- the clip 3 shown in Figure 5 includes inwardly pressed ribs 61 which provide the clip
- the strap 23 of the clip assembly 5 shown in Figure 5 includes a central lengthwise extending rib 63 which provides rigidity to the strap 23 and makes it possible to use thinner sheet metal to form the strap 23.
- the retaining clip 3 and the clip assembly 5 shown in Figure 6 are very similar to the clips 3/clip assemblies 5 shown in Figures 1, 3, 4 and 5 and the same reference numerals are used to indicate the same components .
- the main difference relates to the construction of the clips 3 shown in Figure 6.
- the clips 3 shown in Figures 1, 3, 4 and 5 are made as single components by bending a flat metal blank into the configuration shown in the figures.
- Each clip 3 shown in Figure 6 is made from 2 separate components.
- One component includes the legs 21 with inwardly turned sides 31 and the platform 17 and is formed by bending a flat sheet blank.
- the second component is a sheet 71 of spring steel with a central hole that is positioned underneath the platform 17 and extends from opposite sides of the platform 17 and forms the retaining tabs 19.
- the spring steel sheet 71 is held in position by being sandwiched between the platform 17 and upper edges of the inwardly turned sides 31 of the legs 21.
- the clip 3 has two feet 81 and the feet 81 form part of the support member of the clip. Forming the clip 3 with feet 81 means that it is not necessary to provide the legs 21 with inturned sides 31 (as is the case with the clips shown in Figures 1, 3, 4 and 5) to provide the required structural rigidity of the clip.
- the clip 3 is formed as a single component by pre- cutting to a required profile and then bending a single flat sheet of steel strip.
- the free ends of the flat sheet are also bent inwardly so that the free ends face each other and thereby form the feet 81.
- the free ends are separated by a small gap G ( Figures 11/12) at a centreline of the clip 3.
- the feet 81 are formed to define a central opening 83 ( Figures 7 and 8) which, in use, receives a screw that secures the clip and the strap 23 to an underlying roof support structure.
- the strap 23 has a series of spaced apart openings 91 and, in use, the clip 3 is positioned on the strap 23 so that the openings 83 and 91 are aligned. Further, the opening 25 in the platform 17 of the clip is formed to be sufficiently wide to allow a screwdriver to be inserted through the opening 25.
- the clip 3 and the strap 23 are formed so that the clip 3 can be detachably mounted to the strap 23.
- a strap 23 and a plurality of the clips 3 can be assembled together to form a clip assembly either at a manufacturing location or on- site after the clips 3 and the strap 23 have been separately transported to the building site.
- the latter option is an advantage in terms of efficient transportation.
- making the clips 3 detachable from the strap 23 is an advantage because it is possible to conveniently replace damaged clips 3.
- the clip 3 has locating two tongues 85 extending outwardly from each foot 81 that cooperate with slots 87 in the strap 23 to detachably mount the clip 3 on the strap 23.
- the strap 23 has ribs 89 extending along the sides of the strap.
- the ribs 89 are formed by deforming the strap 23 out of the major plane of the strap.
- the slots 87 are formed in the inwardly facing sides 93 of the ribs 89.
- the dimensions of the strap 23 and the clip 3 are selected so that locating the tongues 85 in the slots 87 is achieved via a snap fit action - as illustrated in Figure 11. It is noted that the gap G between the feet 81 of the clip 3 permits resilient inward movement of the legs 21 which facilitates snap fitting of the tongues 85 in the slots 87.
- the clip 3 is formed with a single centrally located tongue 85 extending outwardly from each foot 81 of the clip 3.
- the retaining clip 3 and the clip assembly 5 shown in Figures 13 to 15 are very similar to the clip 3 and clip assembly 5 shown in Figures 7 to 11 and the same reference numerals are used to indicate the same components .
- the clip 3 includes the above- described feet 81 and the locating tongues 85 extending from the feet 81 which can be snap-fitted into the slots 87 in the strap 23 to releasably mount the clip 3 to the strap 23.
- Figures 13 to 15 which is not disclosed in the other embodiments is that the leading end section 95 and the trailing end section 97 of the strap 23 include means which facilitate locating a successive strap 23 to a strap 23 that is already positioned on an underlying structure in correct alignment .
- the locating means include a slot 99 in the leading end section 95 of the strap 23 and a pair of opposed upwardly extending tabs 101 in the trailing end section 97 of the strap 23. It can be appreciated from Figure 13 that with this arrangement a successive strap 23 can be positioned on an already-positioned strap 23 (the strap 23 on the left side of the figure) by positioning the successive strap 23 in relation to the already-positioned strap 23 so that the tabs 101 at the trailing end section 97 of the already-positioned strap 23 extend through the slot 99 in the leading end section 95 of the successive strap 23. This facilitates alignment of the straps 23. When so positioned, if required the tabs 101 may be folded outwardly and downwardly onto the underlying surface of the successive strap 23 to hold the two straps together.
- this method of locating the straps 23 may be carried out with or without the clips 3 snap-fitted on the straps 23. It is also noted that the positions of the slots 99 and tabs 101 are interchangeable and the slots 99 may be at the trailing end sections 97 and the tabs 101 may be at the leading end section of the straps 23.
- the means which facilitate locating a successive strap 23 to a strap 23 that is already positioned on an underlying structure in correct alignment includes:
- the locating means shown in Figure 16 can be brought into engagement with each other by moving the successive strap 23 in the downward and forward directions as indicated by the arrow in the figure so that the opening 107 in the strap 23 is received in the hook-shaped tab 109 of the already-positioned strap 23. It can be appreciated that with this form of locating means, when the successive sheet is layed flat on the underlying structure, relative lengthwise movement of two straps 23 is possible to allow alignment of the openings 91.
- retaining tabs 19 that are essentially planar members that have the same width as that of the sides of the platform 17 from which the tabs 19 extend
- the present invention is not so limited and extends to any suitable form of retaining member.
- the clip 3 may include a member, for example, a post, extending upwardly from the platform 17 which in use extends into the rib 11 and is adapted to contact the rib 11 and resist disengagement of a sheet 7 located on the clip in response to uplift forces .
- the member may be formed by cutting and folding sheet material that is initially pressed when forming the opening 25.
- the post may be in the form of an upturned lip formed from the downwardly extending margin of the opening 25 shown in Figure 12.
