M. FEIDER GUTTER HANGER Nov. 20, 1945.
' Filed Aug. 15, 1944 Patented Nov. 20, 1945 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE GUTTER HANGER Mathias Feider, Madison, Ind.
Application August 15, 1944, Serial No. 549,588
1 Claim.
This invention relates to hangers for gutters having means by which they are anchored in place in a roof structure so that the anchorage thereof on the roof is protected against access of rain at the joint of attachment, that is to say, where the nails are employed to anchor the bracket for supporting the gutter to the roof the said nails are protected against the access of water in order that the material in which the nail is anchored does not deteriorate, as it does where the nail is driven and its head is on top of the bracket when said bracket is superimposed on a shingle without the nail being covered.
It is an object of this invention to produce a gutter bracket which can be interposed between the roof laths or between the starting course of shingles and the next superimposed course of shingles and anchored in place by nails which are also employed to fasten the shingles of the starting course; and the invention also contemplates the provision of means whereby the bracket may be inserted between the courses of shingles which have been laid, the said bracket having means by which it may be anchored to nails of shingles which are a part of the roof structure.
A further object of this invention is to produce a bracket of the character indicated, capable of supporting gutters in proper relation to the roof structure in order that the inner edge of the gutter may be under the edge of the roof from which water is discharged into the gutter.
It is a still further object of the invention to produce a gutter bracket of the character indicated which can be made by the well known stamping and cutting processes so that it is comparatively inexpensive to manufacture.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists in the details of construction, and in the arrangement and combination of parts to be hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing form ing part of this application, wherein like characters denote corresponding parts in the several views, and in which Figure 1 illustrates a plan view of a fragment of a roof, showing the first course of shingles superimposed on the usual roof lath;
Figure 2 illustrates a longitudinal sectional view of the bracket applied to the roof with a gutter support attached thereto; and
Figure 3 illustrates a perspective view of a bracket prior to its being bent.
In the drawing 5 denotes the roof lathing or it may represent a roofer or other member, to which the roof shingles 6 are secured by fastenings I, such as nails, it being understood that in Figure 1 the starting course of the shingles is illustrated. When a new roof is being constructed the gutter bracket or hanger 8 is installed on the nails which are used to secure the shingles in place. The member 8, for convenience of description, will be hereinafter referred to as a bracket, and it comprises a length of metalof appropriate dimensions havin a beveled upper end 9, and a diagonal slot H] which extends from one edge upwardly at appropriate distance, to form a seat for the reception of the nail by which it is anchored to the roof, and the said bracket has apertures l I near its lower end; it being shown that the portion l2 having the apertures is bent at an appropriate angle to the main portion according to the pitch of the roof to which the bracket is applied, it being understood that the portion |2 should assume a practically horizontal position when the bracket is installed. The roof is shown in Fig. 2 as associated with a fragment of a siding [3.
The gutter I4, which is to be suspended, is shown as being embraced by a yoke I5 formed of a single length of metal whose ends are bent inwardly over the gutter and then upwardly, as at I6, so that the said ends project through one of the apertures II and are clinched above the bracket, as at H, in order that the yoke is thereby removably retained in place as the clinched portions of the yoke may be bent so that they can be withdrawn from the apertures in which the ends are located.
In Figure 2 the hanger is illustrated as being located under the shingles, as they appear in dotted lines, on the nails which have been used in the roof structure. When the bracket is forced under a shingle, the slot [0 at the edge of the bracket is made to register with the nail to which the bracket is to be attached and the bracket is then moved laterally and longitudinally so that the nail is seated in the upper end of the slot, and hence the anchorage of the bracket is accomplished without exposing the joint between the bracket and nail to weather conditions.
I claim:
. In combination with a roof gutter having a rolled outer end portion, a support for said gutter comprising an elongated metallic plate having a diagonally disposed slot extending from one of its edges longitudinally of the plate for receiving a roofingnail, the said plate having a beveled end to facilitate the insertion of the plate between layers of shingles of a roof, said plate having apertures nearjts end opposite the beveled end, the portion .of the plate having the apertures being bent at an angle to the main por tion of the plate, and a gutter supporting band having a bulged out portion corresponding to the rolled outer portion of the gutter, said band adapted to embrace the gutter and having its ends selectively projecting through the apertures and clinched over the bent portion of the plate.
MATHIAS FEIDER.
