BACK-UP TAB FOR SIDING Filed April i), 1965 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 INVENTOR. James L. Kova/c/k H/S A TTORNEYS United States Patent 3,339,333 BACK-UP TAB FUR SIDING James L. Kovalcik, Metcom Products Co., R0. Box 325, Blairsville, Pa. 15717 Filed Apr. 5, 1965, Ser. No. 445,802 6 Claims. (Cl. 52672) This invention relates to improvements in the installation of metal siding and relates in particular to an improved back-up tab for use with metal siding.
Metal siding, such as aluminum siding, employed in the home building trade is of relatively thin gauge. Such siding is generally constructed of formed elongated strips of sheet or strip metal that are horizontally nailed or otherwise attached to wooden house siding. The thin gauged sections extend outwardly from the wall to which they are fastened leaving a void area between the wall structure and the thin gauged sheet or strip metal. It is frequently necessary to employ vertical back-up tabs particularly around windows, at splices, at corners, etc., where some resistance or stifii'ening of the thin gauged metal panel is necessary to prevent collapsing of the siding against the wall to which it is attached. Since the eX- tending face or surface of the siding tapers outwardly from top to bottom to provide proper drainage, back-up tabs are constructed of strips of metal having extending tapering ribs which match the tapering surface of the siding when these tabs are Vertically positioned between the walls to which the siding is attached and the siding.
The conventional back-up tab is made on a progressive die (multi-station die). A coil of metal strip or sheet is automatically fed through the progressive die wherein the tab is formed in the following manner:
In Station # 1 longitudinal parallel slots are formed in the strip leaving longitudinal parallel elongated members. In Station #2 longitudinal tapering ribs are formed in each of the longitudinal parallel elongated members. In Station #3 the elongated members are cut off to complete the tabs. The detached tabs fall separately into a shipping container. Each stroke of the die preforms all three steps at each station simultaneously on progressing sections of the strip.
Instead of manufacturing individual tabs in the manner described above, I manufacture panels of parallel rows of tabs that are connected .to one another by a minor quantity of metal so that individual tabs may be removed from the panel by simple bending by workmen on the job of installing metal siding. By employing my tab design and method, panels of tabs are sheared so that they fall vertically into a shipping container and stack or nest within the container for more efiicient and economical packaging than the prior method of packaging individual tabs. My new tab design permits the manufacture of tabs from less sheet or strip metal than is required for conventional tabs. Wasted and non-utilized metal at both sides and at the ends of each tab is eliminated without any sacrifice of functioning in rigidity or the backup function of the tabs. Furthermore, my preferred tab construction provides a means for holding the individual tabs securely within the siding so that it will not move or fall from place during or after installation.
In manufacturing my tab, I also employ a progressive die (rnulti-station die). A coil or strip of material is automatically fed through a progressive die having two opposing vertical slides wherein panels of tabs are formed in the following manner:
In Station # 1 the top slide moves down to shear elongated rows of slits into the strip. These slits, though generally longitudinally positioned, are neither parallel nor perfectly longitudinal but alternately taper towards and away from one another to define alternately tapering (in width) elongated members. While still in Station # 1,
ice
the bottom slide moves up to form tapered ribs, the deepest portion of each rib being at the widest portion of each elongated member. Both slides then retract. During the down stroke of the top slide, Station #2 \cuts off the previously formed tab panel. The cut off panel falls as a unit into a shipping container where it nests within like panels.
With each successive stroke of the machine, work is done simultaneously at both stations of the progressive die and with each stroke a panel of eight tabs is completed.
I have shown the presently preferred embodiment of my invention in the accompanying drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is a partial plan view of a stamped panel of tabs formed in accordance with the present invention.
FIGURE 2 is a side elevation view of the stamping of FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 3 is a perspective view of an individual tab shown as separated from the panel of FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 4 is a perspective view showing a tab such as that depicted by FIGURE 3 as assembled within a building panel.
FIGURE 5 is a cross-sectional fragmented view showing the conventional installation of metal siding.
FIGURE 6 is a plan view of a section of the end of a roll of metal partially formed in accordance with conventional practice.
Referring to the drawings, in FIGURE 6 there is shown a portion of strip 15 of back-up tabs 13 before completion. Strip 15 consists of six partially formed tabs 13 (three and a fraction of which are shown). Tabs 13 are formed by progressing the strip of material 15 onto the first station in a progressive die wherein the slots 21 are simultaneously formed by stamping. The slotted sheet is then advanced to the second station of the progressive die where the tapering ribs 17 of each of the six tabs 13 are simultaneously formed. It should be noted that the rib 17 or drawn portion of each tab has utilized a portion of the width of each tab at 19 resulting in increased spacing between the tab. The end of the strip material 15 now in the form shown by FIGURE 6, is sheared along the dotted line 23. The shipping container is positioned beneath so that each tab 13 falls separately into the container.
Turning to FIGURES 1 and 2, there is shown part of a panel 10 of back-up tabs 12 constructed in accordance with the present invention. Panel 10 consists of eight tabs 12 of which three and a fraction are shown. Panels of tabs 12 (see panel 10 and parts of panels 14 and 15 in FIGURE 1) are formed by progressively stamping metal sheet or strip with a die designed to substantially simultaneously form slits 10a and tapering ribs 16. Each formed stamping or panel is then advanced to a second station of complementary geometrical configuration where it is sheared from the preceding panel by a stamping operation which forms the ends 1211 or 121) of each tab, depending on its alternating position at the sheared end of the panel. The other ends of the tabs of each panel are sheared to proper configuration when the subsequent progressively stamped panel is advanced to the second station and stamped.
Such alternating construction effects a savings in the use of metal because the deepest drawn portion of each tapering rib 16 is at the wide end 12a of each tab 12 Where more metal is available to meet the requirements for forming the deep portion of rib 16, and as the depth of rib 16 diminishes, the tab becomes narrower where less metal is needed to form the shallower portions of ribs 16. By alternating the tabs 12, the metal saved by tapering the width of each tab is utilized by the adjacent tabs. This arrangement makes it possible to produce eight tabs from the same width of strips from which six tabs were produced by the method employed in conjunction with the structures of FIGURE 6.
During fabrication when each panel is sheared from the preceding panel to form the configurations of the ends 12a and 12b of each tab 12, the preceding panel overhangs the die in cantilever fashion. When stamping is completed, this panel falls vertically into a packing container positioned below. The panels of tabs nest and stack in the container in a fashion that reduces the size of the container to one-fourth the size of that required for packaging the separated tabs.
The end 12b of each tab 12 is shown to extend beyond the end 12a of the adjacent tab and is actually extended about one inch beyond the end of the adjacent tab. This section 12b is removed from the wider end portion 12:: of the in-line tab of the next progressively stamped panel 14 or the preceding stamped panel 15. This results in a void area 20 in the end 12a of each tab that corresponds in shape to the end 12b of each tab. Thus, this construction makes use of excessive metal in the center of the wide end of each tab.
The above designed features have proved to result in a 37% savings in the material used in these parts. The formed rib extensions 16a of rib 16 extend around void 20 of end 12a and serve to rigidize and strengthen this end which would otherwise be weakened by void 20. This feature permits the use of lighter gauge material and effects a savings of over 50% on the metal used.
FIGURES l-4 show a preferred embodiment of the present invention which consists of a projecting finger 22 that is provided at the end 12b of each tab 12. In the use of the conventional tab, such as tabs 13 of FIG. 6, the tabs are vertically positioned between the metal siding and the structure to which it is attachedwith the end 1311 supported by a horizontally extending flanged portion of the siding. The top portion or end 13b of these tabs extends upwardly between the metal siding and the wall to which it is attached and such tabs may fall or move out of place during and after installation. In the present preferred embodiment of my invention, finger 22 is inserted into a nail hole 24 (see FIGURES 4 and provided for nailing the metal siding 32 to the wall 29 of the house to which it is attached. The end 12a may he slid into the slot 26 formed by the flanged extensions 28 and 30 of the metal siding 32.
For the purposes of the present specification and particularly the claims, the terms sheet metal and strip metal shall be regarded as synonymous.
While I have described the presently preferred embodiments of my invention, it is to be understood that it may be otherwise embodied within the scope of the following claims.
I claim:
