4 Claims.
This. invention relates to walls and partitions and it has particular reference to certain new and useful improvements in metal runners for the floor and ceiling to which the bottom and top respectively of the wall or partition are secured.
The' principal object of the invention is to provide identical elements interchangeable serv'- i'ng as the floor and ceiling runners, each consisting of nestable channel members fabricated from sheet metal and provided with one longitudinal ange of greater width than the other,
' along which are spaced slits perpendicular to the web of the channel to dei-lne prongs which are bent on the job to lie transversely of the web, serving as a support for wall board or plaster; as the:v case may be. Moreover, these prongs 'are adapted to receive wall retaining clips, the ends of alternate clips being bent to a position perpendicular to the channel web to lie against and resist lateral displacement of the wall in one direction while the opposingV channel ilange resists displacement of the wall in the'opposite direction. The ends of the remaining slipsvare turned downwardly on both sides of the wall to support the prongs on one side and to afford a mounting on the opposite side of the wall for wood nailer.
Another object of the invention is to provide an interchangeable oor and ceiling runner for partitions which is adapt-able for both wall board and plaster and in the latter case, the invention aiords a novel form of metal stud retaining means whose construction is such that temporary securement of the upper ends of the studs to the ceiling runner may be effected without mounting a ladder for the purpose.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a securing means for partitions as. set forth, supplemented by a novel form of clip for retaining either a wood or metal base board or, in the case of a plaster partition, the clip will provide a securing means for a screed by which to determine the thickness of plaster.
Broadly, the invention seek to provide an economical and flexible securing means for walls and partitions which will enable the wall to be speedily erected and removed, yet will possess the. strength, appearance and durability of a more complex permanent wall of conventional construction.
With the foregoing objects` in view, the invention has further reference to certain features of' l' verse section showing the relative positions of the wall boardJA base trim and nailing strip. Figure 4 is a, fragmentary plan view of the floor or ceiling runner. j Figure 5 is a fragmentary side elevational View thereof. y ,i Figure. 6 is. an end elevational View of the runner. i' Figure 7 is a perspective view of one of the wall retaining clips.
Figure- 8 `is a View in transverse section showing the base clips as holding metal base boards. Fig-ure 9 is a fragmentary perspective view of the runners supporting a plaster wall construc-v tion.
Figure 10 is a fragmentary perspective view. of the licor runner showing the manner in which a metal stud is .temporarily retained.
Figure 11 is a transverse sectional view of a oor runner showing the manner v,of retaining a plaster screed, and
Figure 1 2 is a detail perspective view of one of the base retaining clips. Continuing with a. more detaileddescription of the drawing, reference is primarily made to Figures 1 to 7 inclusive in which numeral Ill denotes a runner either for the floor or ceiling since these` runners are interchangeable. The runner vconsists of a channel member having a narrow flange I I along one side', and a comparatively wide flange` o n the opposite side. The wide flange is slitted perpendicularly `to the web of the channel at spaced points to define a series of prongs I2 which are `bent tolie in transverse relationship with the. web of the. channel. This operation is accomplished on the job since-it is preferred, for convenience invstoring andhanding that the prongs I2 remain upright; so; that the .runners may be nested. The channel members Ill are provided with longitudinally spaced. apertures I3 to receive screws I4 by which theyv are secured to the floor or ceiling. Spacedpopenings-.IS are provided in the widest `flange of the channel to which furthe reference will bemade presently,...
as shown while the legs ll of the remaining clips are bent downwardly. The clips are held against longitudinal displacement by Virtue of the fact that their opposite legs Iii are bent downwardly against the opposite flange of the channel member lll.
Wall board lil, preferably of the laminated tongue and groove design shown in Figures 1, 2, 3
and 8 is set down between the upstanding porl tions of the wider flange of the runner Ii) and the upturned legs Il of the clips and is thus held against lateral movement. The longitudinal space defined by the web and flanges of the runner and the transverse prongs I2 is occupied by a nailing strip 20, having a longitudinal recess 2l cables 22.
Wood base boards 23 are secured to the nailing strip 2i! by screws 24 which are passed through the openings 5 on one side and between the downwardly turned legs of the clips on the opposite side of the runner. The wall board l may be surfaced on each side in any desired manner to complete the wall, it being understood that the ceiling anchorage for 'the wall board is identical to that of the floor anchor- 3 age just described, except for the trim 2d which may be of any suitable design of ceiling mold, fastened in the same manner as the base boards 23.
In Figure 8 is shown a modification of the base trim. In this form, the base consists of metal members 26 which are attached by means of special clips 21 which will be specifically described presently.
Referring now to Figures 9 to 12 inclusive, a fire proof wall is shown in which the runners l0 are identical to those just described and illustrated in Figures 1 to 8. However, to adapt the invention to plaster wall construction it is desirable that provision be made for temporarily retaining the upper and lower ends of the conventional steel studs 28 to which is secured the expanded metal lath 29. In the present case, the stud retaining means consists of a pair of clips, one of which 30 is of substantially L- shaped, as shown in Figure 1G and has a hook 3l on one end while the opposite end 32 is curved to snap into engagement with one of the upstanding projections of the wide flange of the runner Ill. The hook 3l engages the inner flange of a stud 28 while the opposite flange thereof is engaged by the hook 33 on one end of a complementary clip 34 whose opposite end has a hook 35 which is adapted to be snapped into engagement with the upstanding portion of the runner flange immediately below the clip 36. The clips' 3'and 34 will hold the studs in alignment and in perpendicularity with the runners until the metal lath 29 has been tied thereto in the usual manner after which, and before the plaster 35 is applied, the studs are secured conventionally by Wire ties, not shown.
The clips v30 and 34 are advantageous in supporting the studs 28 in cases where there is al therein to accommodate electric service diversity in ceiling height at different points along the length of the wall of an inch and fractions thereof since the depth of the runner at the ceiling will permit of a slight clearance between the runner web and the upper end of the studs and yet will provide adequate bearing surface for securing the stud in the manner set forth.
After the studs have been erected as explained, the base or screed 3l is secured to A the floor runner by means of the base clip 27,' previously mentioned and shown in Figures 8 and 12. The screed 31 is of metal and is shaped to define a depending lip 33 along its top inner edge and vertical return flange 39 at the bottom thereof. The retaining clip 21 has a plurality of folds at its lower end to denne parallel channels 4i! and 4l. The clip is so disposed in relation to the runner IB that the inner channel 4l thereof will receive the narrow flange Il of the runner when mounted on one side of the latter. In mounting a clip on the opposite side of the runi' ner, the channel 4| will receive a portion of the flange at the lower edge of an opening l5, as shown in Figure 11. The upper end of the clip is bifurcated, one fork being of greater length than the other and is folded on itself to define a channel 42. VThis channel receives the upturned leg Il of a wall supporting clipwhile on the opposite side, the channel 42 re-- ceives the upper edge of an upstanding portion of the runner flange. 'v When the clips are mounted in the manner described in spaced apart relationship the upper lip 33 of the screed 3'4" is set down between .theopposite fork 43 of the clip 21 and the companion fork 42 thereof while a tongue 4&5 on the lower` inner edge 0I" the screed 3l, formed by the return" ange 39, is received in the outer channel 4Q at, the lower end of clip 2l'. Thus the screed is held' in position as shown in Figures 9 and 11 preparatory to the application of the plaster which latter will nd support on the inclined upper portion of the screed and by which is gauged the thickness of the plaster. M
The clips 2 take the place of the wood nailing strip in re proof construction and the armored electrical service cables 45 (Fig. 11) are arranged inthe space alongside the stud assembly.
lvlarn'festly, the construction as shown and described is capable of some modification and such modification as may be construed to fall within' the scope and meaning of the appended claims is also considered to be within the spirit and intent rof the invention.
