Description
- This invention relates to building walls formed of framing and wallboard covering. More particularly, it relates to an improved mounting member for resiliently connecting the wallboard to the framing.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,471,805, granted Dec. 5, 1995, to Duane W. Becker, discloses connecting a
wall panel 20 to framing 18 in a spaced relationship. Elongated sheet metal spacers 70 are attached to theframing 18 and the wallboard panels are attached to the spacers 70. This use of the spacers 70 allows the wall covering 20 to be connected to thestudding 18 while at the same time permitting limited movement of the wall covering 20 relative to theframing 18. There is a need for improving the spacer so that the wallboard covering can and will move relative to theframing 18 in response to smaller forces that are required when the system of prior art spacers 70 is used. It is a primary object of the present invention to fill this need. - The present invention includes providing a spacer or mounting member for a wallboard panel in the form of an elongated sheet metal member having parallel first and second opposite edge portions, a central portion, and first and second angled portions connecting the edge portions to the central portion. The first angled portion makes an acute angle with both the first edge portion and the central portion. The second angled portion makes an acute angle with both the second edge portion and the central portion. The first edge portion is adapted to be connected to framing members. The second edge portion is adapted to be contacted by a wall panel and receive fasteners that extend through the wall panel into the second edge portion.
- Preferably, a plurality of openings are formed in at least one of the central portion and the first and second angled portions. In one embodiment, a row of openings is provided in each of the angled portions and in the central portion. In another embodiment, a row of openings is provided in each of the angled portions but not in the central portion.
- The openings may be circular openings or they may be longitudinal slots. In one embodiment, longitudinal slots are provided in both angled portions and in the central portion and the slots in the central portion are longitudinally offset from the slots in the angled portions.
- The construction of the mounting member to include two edge portions, two angled portions and a central portion results in four hinge lines spaced apart across the width of the mounting member. The four hinge lines make the mounting member more resilient than the prior art mounting members which only have two hinge lines. The provisions of openings in one or more all of the two angled portions and the central portion provides additional resiliency in the wallboard panel mounting members.
- These and other advantages, objects and features of the invention will become apparent from the following description of the illustrated embodiments, and the drawings and the claims, all of which are incorporated herein and are part of the disclosure of the invention.
