Benefits of technology

0009] The invention pertains to a support bracket comprising a channel like body and a support arm extending from the body. The body is adapted to be detachably secured in a desired position to a support on a construction site, for example, a wall stud. The body has a side wall, a front wall and a rear wall, with the front wall being spaced from the rear wall a predetermined dimension, such predetermined dimension being complementary to t

Problems solved by technology

To construct a work table on site is time consuming and costly in terms of material and manpower.
Similarly, it is often costly or difficult to bring a previously constructed work table onto a construction site.

Embodiment Construction

[0021] There is shown in FIG. 1 a typical construction site wherein a pair of support brackets 10 are mounted on vertically disposed studs 12 for supporting a panel or shelf 14, which is shown in phantom. As will be explained hereinafter, the support brackets 10 can easily be mounted to support a panel or shelf 14 at any desired height on the stud 12 and can be readily assembled to the stud 12 and removed therefrom. In FIG. 2 there is shown a support bracket 10 mounted on a roof rafter or stud 16 for supporting roofing materials.

[0022] In FIGS. 3-6 there is shown the mounting of a support bracket 10 on a stud 12. The support bracket 10 includes a body 18 and a support member or support arm 20. The support bracket 10 is suitably made from a strong, rigid material, for example, aluminum or steel. The body 18 includes a front wall 22, a rear wall 24 and a side wall 26 which connects the front wall 22 and the rear wall 24. A projection 28 extends rearwardly from the front wall 22 and a ...

Abstract

A support bracket is constructed and arranged to be secured to a stud on a construction site. The stud will be of a predetermined width and thickness. The support bracket comprises a body with a channel-like body having a side wall, a front wall and a rear wall. The front wall is spaced from rear wall a predetermined distance at least equal to the width of the stud. The lower edge of the rear wall is disposed above the upper edge of the front wall, thereby defining an opening for receiving the stud. A first projection extends rearwardly from the front wall. A second projection extends forward from the rear wall. The first and second projections are spaced from the side wall a distance at least as great as the height of the stud. A third projection extends forwardly from the lower edge of the rear wall for engaging the associated surface of the stud to more firmly fix the support bracket in place on the stud. The interior cross section of the body is complementary to the exterior cross section of the stud. Further, the interior of the body is constructed and arranged to receive and fit closely with the exterior of the stud. A security arrangement is provided on the body to help further secure the body of the support bracket to the stud. The support bracket is readily mounted onto a stud and removed from the stud and can be used over and over again.

Description

[0001] A. Field of the Invention[0002] The present invention pertains to a support bracket and more particularly, to a support bracket that may be used on a construction site for a variety of purposes.[0003] B. Description of Related Art[0004] During construction of a home, for example, there is often need for a table or like work surface. A carpenter can assemble a work table on site by bringing in several saw horses and setting a panel across them or constructing a top to form a work table. Sometimes an assembled work table will be brought onto the site. To construct a work table on site is time consuming and costly in terms of material and manpower. Similarly, it is often costly or difficult to bring a previously constructed work table onto a construction site. At times, there is a need for a temporary holder or support for work materials, for example, water pipes for a plumber or electrical conduit for an electrician. When preparing a roof on a new home, there is often a need fo...
