Abstract: Panels resting in a suspended grid are rendered abuseresistant by mounting two-piece retaining clips atop the runners in the grid. The clip assemblies comprise a torsional/flexural spring mated with a clinch fastener. The spring is a piece of bent music wire having a central U-shaped segment, two opposing legs angling outwardly and downwardly from the upright arms of the U to a level below the cross member of the U. The clinch fastener is a piece of flat spring steel bent into the shape of a U, the bight of the U being a channel connecting two straps, each of which has a keeper at its distal end which turns inward and upward into the space between the two straps. The cross member of the spring fits into the channel of the clinch fastener and the unit is snapped onto the bead atop a grid runner so that the cross member is interposed between the bead and the channel. The retaining clip assemblies may be installed before or after the panels are installed in the grid or the panels and clip assemblies may be installed sequentially. The legs of the spring bear down on the panels and the spring absorbs the impact of a ball or other object thrown upward at the ceiling.

Abstract translation: 在悬挂网格中休息的面板通过在网格中的跑步者的顶部安装两片固定夹而被阻止。 夹子组件包括与紧固件配合的扭转/弯曲弹簧。 弹簧是一条弯曲的音乐线，其具有中央的U形部分，两个相对的腿从U的直立臂向外和向下倾斜到U的横向部件下方的水平面。紧固件是一块扁平 弹簧钢弯曲成U形，U的弯道是连接两个带的通道，每个带在其远端具有保持器，其向内和向上转入两个带之间的空间。 弹簧的横向构件装配到紧固件的通道中，并且单元被卡扣在网格转子上方的胎圈上，使得横向构件插入在胎圈和通道之间。 保持夹组件可以在面板安装在网格中之前或之后安装，或者可以依次安装面板和夹子组件。 弹簧的腿部压在面板上，弹簧吸收在天花板上向上扔的球或其他物体的冲击力。
