Abstract

Providing a degree of freedom of movement within the wall and between the wall and the other components of a building can reduce stress and prevent fracture of connected parts due to the loading of the building, seismic and wind events, or differences in the temperatures of the curtain wall and the load bearing elements. An improved connection (1) between supported (3) and supporting (2) structural members, particularly for use in structures where the supported member (3) needs to move with respect to the supporting member (2). The connector (4) having an anchoring leg (5) connected to the sliding leg (6) and connected to the supporting member. The sliding leg of the connector is configured to move relative to the supported member. The securing component (40) having one or more planar upstanding flanges connected to and set an angle to the one or more base components (39). The flanges are a continuous member that extends over an opening of the sliding leg and also extends over substantial portion of the planar portions of the sliding leg.

Claims (11)

WE CLAIM:
1. A structural connection in a building, comprising: a. a supporting member; b. a supported member; c. a connector connecting the supported member to the supporting member, the connector including: i. a slide clip having a sliding leg disposed in close proximity to the supported member, the sliding leg having one or more openings, the one or more openings being bracketed by first and second substantially planar portions that are substantially aligned, the first and second substantially planar portions of the sliding leg defining a front surface and a back surface on opposite sides of the sliding leg of the slide clip, the back surface of the sliding leg interfacing with the supported member, and an anchoring leg connected to the sliding leg and connected to the supporting member, the supported member being connected to the slide clip so that the sliding leg of the connector is configured to move relative to the supported member; and ii. a slider, the slider having one or more base components that are received in the one or more openings of the sliding leg, and a securing component that is attached to the one or more base components, the securing component having a plurality of containment surfaces that are aligned and are disposed in close proximity to the front surface of the first and second aligned, substantially planar portions of the sliding leg; d. one or more first fasteners connect the anchoring leg to the supporting member; e. one or more second fasteners connect the slider to the supported member; and wherein f. the securing component has one or more substantially planar upstanding flanges connected to and set at an angle to the one or more base components, such that a projection along the substantially planar upstanding flange is configured to intersect with the sliding leg, and each of the one or more upstanding flanges is a continuous member that extends over at least one of the one or more openings of the sliding leg and also extends over substantial portions of the first and second substantially planar portions of the sliding leg.
2. The connection of claim 1, wherein the one or more upstanding flanges of the slider extend substantially above the sliding leg.
3. The connection of claim 2, wherein the one or more upstanding flanges have an outer edge and one or more bottom edges that are substantially opposed to the outer edges, the containment surfaces are formed on the one or more bottom edges of the flanges.
4. The connection of claim 3, wherein the bottom edges of the one or more flanges are interrupted by one or more projecting arms that extend to and connect the one or more upstanding flanges to the one or more base components.
5. The connection of claim 4, wherein the upstanding flange are disposed substantially orthogonally to the base components and the sliding leg.
6. The connection of claim 5, wherein the containment surfaces are disposed on either side of the openings.
7. The connection of claim 6, wherein the upstanding flanges are formed with lateral bends or embossments to provide additional strength to the flanges.
8. The connection of claim 1, wherein: a. the anchoring leg having a proximal section that is connected to the sliding leg and a distal section that is connected to the proximal section, the proximal section of the anchoring leg projecting away from the front surface of the sliding leg, and b. the distal section of the anchoring leg projects away from both the front and back surfaces of the sliding leg, and the first fasteners attach the distal section of the anchoring leg to the supporting member, and at least one of the first fasteners engages a portion of the distal section that projects away from the back surface of the sliding leg, on a same side of the sliding leg as the supported member.
9. The connection of claim 8, wherein at least one of the first fasteners engages a portion of the distal section that projects away from the front surface of the sliding leg.
10. The connection of claim8, wherein at least one of the first fasteners engages a portion of the distal section that is substantially in line with the front surface of the sliding leg and the portion of the distal section that projects away from the back surface of the sliding leg, on the same side of the sliding leg as the supported member.
11. The connection of claim 1, wherein the slider is a unitary member. Simpson Strong-Tie Company, Inc. By the Attorneys for the Applicant SPRUSON & FERGUSON
