Filed Oct. 26; 1923 INVENTOR I BY %M ATTOR BY;
Patented July 20, 1926.
UNITED STATES MAX RACHLIN, OF' BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
GUTTER HANGER.
Application filed October 26, 1923. Serial No. 670,848.
The present invention relates to improve ments in gutter-hangers, that is to say to devices for supporting roof gutters.
The main object of the invention is to provide a gutter hanger, including a bar extendin transversel of the utter and b .1 t)
provided on one of its ends with a hoolshaped section fitting over the bead of the gutter, a simple and efficient means being provided for efiectively locking the said hook-shaped section in position.
Another object of the invention is to provide a gutter-hanger of the type mentioned Which is simple in construction, efiicient in operation, durable in use and capable of manufacture on a commercial scale, or in other words one which is not so difficult to make as to be beyond the reasonable cost of such a contrivance.
lVith these and other objects in view, which will more fully appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the
same consists in the combination, arrangement and construction of parts hereinafter described, pointed out in the appended claim, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, it being understood that many changes may be made in the size and pro portion of the several parts and details of construction within the scope of the appended claim, without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
Two of the many possible embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of a gutterhanger constructed in accordance with the present invention, the gutter being shown in position thereon; Fig. 2 is a front elevation of a portion of the said hanger; Fig. 3 is a section taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1; Fig.4 is a top plan view of the said hanger, in its flat state; Fig. 5 is a side elevation of a portion of a modified hanger; and Fig. 6 is a front elevation of the modification shown in Fig. 5.
Referring now first to Figs. 1 to 4, inclusive, of the drawings, the numeral 10 indicates a roof gutter, the outer edge of which is provided With-a bead 11, as usual in constructions of this type, while its inner edge 12, adjacent the Wall of the building, is plain. For supporting this gutter in proper relation to the roof 13 of the building, there is provided a plurality of hangers, spaced apart a suitable distance, each of said hangers including a strap portion 14, which surrounds transversely the gutter, and a bracket 15, attached to the said strap and the roof. The strap 14 is, preferably, made of a single piece of sheet metal and includes a curved gutter embracing portion 16, having a llOOlishaped bend 17 at one of its ends, said bend fittin over the head 11 of the gutter and merging into a bar section 18 which extends horizontally and transversely of the gutter Within the latter. The opposite end of this bar is bent over the plain edge 12 of the gutter, as shown at 19 in Fig. 1 of the drawings, and is provided with a transverse slot 20 in its bight. Through this slot is extended the free end 21 of the gutter embracing portion 16 of the strap, and is thence bent downwardly into contact with the rear face of said bent portion, as shown at 22.
In the bent portion 19 of the strap is provided a hole 23, below the plain edge 12 of the gutter, and through this hole is driven a nail 24, or its equivalent, through the gutter and the gutter embracing strap portion 16 into the wall 13 of the structure on which the gutter is to be positioned, to form an anchor for the gutter.
The bar section 18 is substantially U- shaped in cross-section and is provided with a longitudinal rib 25, to strengthen the same. he bracket 15 is joined with the bar 18 by a rivet 26, or otherwise, it including an upwardly extending portion 27 and an outwardly extending section 28, which is secured by nails 29, or otherwise, to the roof 13, from which the rain water is to be carried off.
Immediately below the hook-shaped bend 17, the gutter embracing portion 16 of the strap is transversely ribbed or corrugated, as shown at 30, the lowermost one of the corrugations merging into a longitudinal rib 31. The corrugations and the rib are, preferably, formed by stamping operations.
The straps 14 are furnished to the user as substantially straight strips, having attached thereto the brackets 15 (Fig. 4). In use, the hook-shaped bend 17 is engaged with the gutter, and the gutter embracing portion 16 bent around the same. After this the bend 19 is formed and the free end 21 of the gutter embracing portion 16 extended through the slot 20. The outermost end of the portion 21 is then bent against the rear face of the bent portion 19 of the bar 18, and
a nail 23 driven through the strap and gut ter into the wall, the bracket being then fastened to the roof. The corrugations 30 and rib 31 aid in shaping the hook-shaped section 17 and in maintaining the'same in contact with the bead throughout its length.
' If the said corrugations and rib were absent, thehook-shaped portion of the bar could not be brought to lie throughout its length against the said bead. Inasmuch as the rib on the bar 18 extends to the hookshaped section 17, it aids in properly forming the said hook-shaped section.
The modification shown in Figs. 5 and 6 of the drawings, differs from that above described in that immediately below the hookshaped outer end 17 of the bar 18 is formed, preferably by stamping, a longitudinally extending rib 82. In other words, the corrugations above referred to are omitted. Otherwise the construction and ing transversely of the gutter and provided 4 at its outer end with a hook-shaped section fitting over the head of the gutter, the opposite end of said bar being adapted to be fixed to the opposite edge of the gutter, a strap member made integral with said bar forming a continuation of said hook-shaped section tightly embracing the underface of the gutter and engage-able with the opposite end of said bar, and a rib formed upon said strap member adjacent said hook-shaped section.
Signed at New York, in the county of New York, and State of New York, this 23rd day of October, A. D. 1923.
