Definitions

  • the present invention relates to devices for hanging roof gutters. More specifically, the invention relates to a modular system for hanging roof gutters, and an associated adjusting apparatus.
  • a typical roof gutter bracket is shown in Fig. 9, and is as a rule made of a flat which is curved as shown, equipped with mounting holes 4 in one end and "gutter locks" 2 and 3 fastened with rivets to the flat.
  • a conventional gutter bracket is mounted to a roof as shown in Fig. 7, the gutter bracket is first screwed in place on the roof. The gutter bracket is subsequently bent by hand in a direction as indicated by the arrow in Fig. 7, after which the gutter is laid therein. It is obvious that a method of this kind is very imprecise and, if great precision is required, very time-consuming.
  • gutter bracket is made of three main parts: the flat itself and the two gutter locks that are screwed or riveted to the flat. This is a time-consuming and laborious process and increases the manufacturing costs of the gutter bracket.
  • Gutter brackets which are made in one piece, i.e., one piece of metal that is cut and punched so that the gutter locks are integral parts of the actual hanger, are also known.
  • these one-piece gutter brackets cannot be adjusted, for example, for mounting on a roof as described above.
  • bracket type is made in many lengths, to allow for different mounting positions, e.g., ridge boards, on the roof etc.
  • a roof gutter hanger of the aforementioned type and as disclosed in the preamble of the attached claims is characterised in that a first hanger member is adapted for mounting to a gutter, wherein the first hanger member comprises means for attachment to a structure and at least a first fastening device.
  • a second hanger member which comprises means for attachment to a structure and at least a second fastening device for releasable mounting to the first hanger member via the at least first fastening device, so as to allow a selective connection and disconnection of the two hanger members.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the roof gutter hanger according to the present invention, and shows the two main components, namely the gutter bracket 100 and the mounting 200.
  • FIG. 1 shows the same components as Figure 1, but joined together.
  • Figure 3 shows two variants of the mounting 200, namely a longer variant 200 and a shorter variant 200'.
  • Figure 4 is a perspective view of the mountings 200 and 200' mounted on the ridge board of a house.
  • Figure 5 is a perspective view showing the mountings 200 mounted in a bent state to the roof of a house.
  • Figure 6 is a sectional view of the hanger according to the present invention, where the mounting 200 is shown screwed to a house roof 300 at an angle ⁇ relative to the horizontal plane.
  • the mounting 200 is bent so that the second (lowermost) end of the mounting is almost vertical, and the actual gutter bracket is mounted thereon.
  • Figure 7 shows the previously mentioned known type of bracket mounted on a roof.
  • Figure 8 is a sectional view which shows principles and relevant variables for the bending of the mounting 200.
  • Figure 9 is a perspective view of the known bracket type mentioned above.
  • the roof gutter hanger according to the invention basically comprises a bracket 100 which preferably, but not necessarily, is in one piece, and a mounting 200, which may be of different lengths 200, 200'.
  • the bracket has first and second ends 101, 102 and has "gutter locks" 120, 130 which are bent over the gutter to fasten it to the gutter bracket.
  • the gutter locks on the bracket according to the invention are an integral part of the bracket. This eliminates at least one operation from the process of manufacturing the bracket.
  • the bracket is equipped at one end with a first fastening device, in the described embodiment made in the form of a slot 110, capable of receiving at least a second fastening device or - in this embodiment - a tongue 210 which may be an integral part of the mounting 200, located at the second end 202 of the mounting and arranged in such manner that it projects from the surface of the mounting.
  • a first fastening device in the described embodiment made in the form of a slot 110
  • a tongue 210 which may be an integral part of the mounting 200, located at the second end 202 of the mounting and arranged in such manner that it projects from the surface of the mounting.
  • the tongue 210 can be bent to prevent the bracket from being lifted up inadvertently.
  • the bracket 100 is also equipped with fastening means or mounting holes 140. This means that the bracket can be used without the mounting 200, in that it is fastened to a structure, for example, by means of nails or screws through the mounting holes 140. Even when the mounting and bracket are assembled, the mounting holes 140 can be used as an additional fastening.
  • the mounting 200 is fixed to the underlying roof or eaves using the mounting holes 240.
  • FIG. 2 shows the mounting and the bracket when assembled.
  • the gutter is placed in the gutter bracket and secured using the gutter locks 120, 130.
  • the gutter locks 120, 130 If at a later stage there is a need to take the gutter down, for example, when cleaning or painting the structure behind the gutter, it is not necessary to release the gutter locks, as the entire length of the gutter can simply be lifted upwards, so that the tongue 210 is disengaged from the slot 110, and the whole gutter with gutter brackets can be lifted off.
  • the gutter and gutter brackets mounted thereon can easily be hooked back in place after, for example, the painting has been done.
  • Figure 3 shows two possible variants of the mounting according to the invention. They are in principle identical, but it is conceivable that, in particular when fixing the mounting to a roof, there will be a need for an extra long mounting. If the mounting is fixed to the eaves, it may be sufficient to use a shorter variant 200'.
  • Figure 4 shows in principle how the mountings are first installed in such a manner that the desired fall is obtained. It is believed to be considerably easier to both handle and install these mountings than a conventional gutter bracket. When the mountings are installed, the individual brackets are quickly and simply hung in place.
  • Figure 5 shows the mounting 200 installed in connection with a roof where for various reasons it has been necessary to install the actual mounting on the sloping roof. As mentioned, it is very difficult to do this in a precise manner with the known type of bracket, but with the hanger according to the invention the mounting 200 can be bent to the desired angle first and then screwed in place on the roof 300, whereupon the lower end of the mounting hangs almost vertically and the brackets 100 can easily be hung in place before the gutters are laid and locked therein in a conventional manner.
  • FIG. 6 shows the same principle, here too with the gutter bracket 100 mounted.
  • the bracket 100 can be fastened releasably to a gutter by means of fastening elements 120, 130, and that the bracket 100 is thus releasable from the mounting 200, 200' whilst the gutter locks 120, 130 fasten the bracket 100 to a gutter.
  • the mounting 200, 200' is capable of being mounted to a structure, which may be a roof at an angle of ⁇ or a wall 300, eaves 310 or another structure, where the mounting is adjustable about a break point k (see Figure 8) in such manner that the second end 202 of the mounting can assume an angle ⁇ relative to the first end 201, so as to allow a precise installation of a gutter via the bracket 200 fixed on the mounting.
  • the second end of the mounting When the mounting 200 is bent and mounted to the structure, the second end of the mounting has an almost vertical position ( ⁇ + 90°), whilst the first end 201 assumes an angle almost equal to ⁇ .
  • roof gutter hanger may also include embodiments where instead of only one slot-and-tongue pair 110, 120, there may be a plurality of such pairs, i.e., two or more slots 110 and similarly two or more tongues 210.
  • the slot or slots 110 may be of any shape, not necessarily elongate as shown in the drawings, and the second fastening device(s) 210 may also come in other forms than the illustrated tongue.
  • the second fastening device many be one or more pins, bolts or the like which fit into corresponding openings 110.
  • the roof gutter hanger according to the invention may also include embodiments where the first fastening device 110 is, e.g., a tongue and the second fastening device 210 is, e.g., a slot, i.e., that the fastening devices have switched places.
