Description
Nrrnn STATES PATENT OFFICE,
WALL-Tm.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 625,071, dated May 16, 1899. Application filed September 12, 1898. Serial No. 690,738. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it knownthat I, MORGAN S. TRUMBO, a citizen of the United States, residing at Gahanna, in the county of Franklin and State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Wall-Ties, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to the improvement of wall-ties, and has particular relation to the improvement of that class of ties which are adapted for use in connecting together the outer brick wall and inner frame siding of brick-veneered buildings.
The objects of myinvention are to provide a simple, reliable, and effective means for tying together the inner wooden siding and outer bricklwall of a building, to so construct and arrange said tie as to admit of its being readily connected with the siding and folded up out of the way until the brick wall has reached the proper height for its use, and to produce other improvements in details of construction, which will be more fully pointed out hereinafter. These objects I accomplish in the manner illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which the figure is a perspective view of a portion of a wall consisting of an outer layer or veneer of brick and inner section of siding, the latter being provided with my improved tie.
Similar numerals refer to similar parts.
l represents the frame siding of a building, and 2 the usual strips of building-paper which are secured thereto.
3 represents the outer wall or veneeigwhich is formed of brick, andllrepresents a portion of the foundation, uponwhich said brick are laid in the usual manner.
5 represents my improved wall-ties, each of which consists, as shown in the drawing, of a piece or section of suitable-sized wire of desired length, said wire being bent, as indicated,to form successive crank-bends therein.
The wire or tie body thus formed is through the medium of staples 6 fulcrulned or hinged horizontally to the siding, the staples passing through the paper 2, which covers said siding. As indicated in the drawing, the horizontallysupported angular ties thus formed are adapted to be supported at such distances one from the other as may be desired, and prior to their use said tie-wires may, as indicated by the upper tie in the drawing, be folded up against the paper 2. As the brick wall is built upward to a height immediately below one of the ties, it is obvious that the latter may be turned downward onto the top layer of bricks and embedded in the mortar thereon prior to the laying of the next course or brick layer.v
Although my device is shown in the drawing as used in connection with a brick wall having the thickness of two vious that the same may be applied to walls of any desired thickness.
It will also be seen that the herein-described ties may be arranged at any desirable distance from each other and that they may be formed of any desired lengths.
It is obvious that by the use of my improved tie the brick wall may be firmly connected with the framework, thus insuring a durable and s-ubstantial wall construction.
Having now fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- Y In a wall-tie, the combination with a building framework and siding, of a wire provided with successive crank-bends and staples hinging said wire to the siding whereby said tie may be turned upward or outward, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
