A roof framing system includes a first bracket and a second bracket. The first bracket attaches a first rafter and a second rafter to a ridge beam. The second bracket attaches a third rafter, through the first bracket, to the ridge beam. The first bracket and/or the second bracket includes one or more projections for interlocking with the other one of the first bracket and the second bracket such that the second bracket can be moved between a fixed position and a released position by moving the second bracket relative to the first bracket to attach the third rafter, through the first bracket, to the ridge beam.
摘要:
A system and method for mounting an object to a support utilizes a push-pin that is adapted to be pushed or screwed into the support (such as a wall), without necessitating the use of hammers, screwdrivers, drills, etc. The push-pin has a novel head that includes resilient “grippers” for providing a friction fit within a hole or channel of the object (such as a shelf) to be mounted to the support. In an exemplary embodiment, the grippers are a plurality of resilient annular rings sized to be slightly larger in diameter than the dimension of the mating hole or channel so that when the mating hole or channel of the object engages with the larger diameter rings, the rings are deformed slightly upon entering the hole or channel, thereby, providing a friction fit between the head of the pin and the object to be mounted to the support.

A slotted cap for a corner or support post of a fence, particularly a chain link or “Cyclone” (trademark) or “Hurricane” (trademark) fence. In a preferred embodiment, the slotted fence post cap includes a cylindrical cap wall which is mounted on the upper end of the vertical fence post, and a horizontal adjusting slot is fitted on one side and a fixed nipple is fitted on the opposite side of the cap wall. The fixed nipple receives the horizontal top rail of a fixed fence segment or run, and the adjusting slot is fitted with an adjustable nipple which receives the top rail of an adjustable fence segment or run in construction of the fence. The adjustable nipple is typically bolted to the cap wall at the adjusting slot, and the bolt can be loosened to facilitate adjustment of the adjustable nipple and attached adjustable fence segment into a selected angular relationship with respect to the fixed fence segment. In another embodiment, an adjusting slot is provided in each side of the cap wall, and each receives one or more adjusting nipples. In still another embodiment, multiple adjustable nipples can be fitted to multiple slots intermittently provided in spaced-apart relationship in the horizontal plane of the cap wall to facilitate extending fence lines or segments in varying angular relationship with respect to each other from a common corner post.
摘要:
A fence rail and post construction is described wherein a metal tubular fence rail has one end thereof extending through an opening formed in one side of the post. A rail retainer is selectively removably secured to the fence rail outwardly of the post with the retainer engaging the post to limit longitudinal movement of the fence rail with respect to the post.

A shaft coupling for connecting two shaft ends to transmit torque. Each shaft end has a recess or a projection. A projection on one shaft end projects into the recess in the other shaft end and their cooperating side walls transmit torque. A centering device at one shaft end cooperates with a centering device on the other shaft end for axially aligning the shaft ends. These may be a cylindrical projection one shaft end and a corresponding recess in the other shaft end. Alternatively, the centering devices are recesses in both shaft ends and a pin that extends into both of the centering recesses. Applied elastic material on at least one of the centering device elements enables secure attachment between the shaft ends.
