Attachment device and support system for a roof jack

A roof jack attachment device for use with a support platform,

• the attachment device comprising:
• an elongated body, the body comprising:
• a rectangular front wall having two oppositely disposed long side edges and two oppositely disposed short end edges;
• and
• two side walls, each side wall extending rearwardly and perpendicularly from one of the long side edges of the front wall of the body and each side wall comprising:
• a first long side edge extending perpendicularly from one long side edge of the front wall;
• a free-standing second long side edge;
• a first short end edge having a curved corner positioned proximate the free-standing second long side edge;
• and
• a second short end edge,
• wherein a length of the side walls is ¾ of a length of the long side edges of the front wall;
• a J-shaped hook end disposed at one end of the body;
• a T-shaped flat end disposed at an opposite end of the body;
• and
• a roof jack mount coupled to the body;
• one curved foot extending perpendicularly from the second short end edge of one side wall of the body;
• and
• another curved foot extending perpendicularly from the second short end edge of another side wall of the body,
• wherein the two curved feet are oppositely disposed from each other and extend laterally in opposing directions relative to the front wall of the body of the attachment device, and
• wherein the two curved feet together form the T-shaped flat end of the body:
• the support platform having a rectangular shape and comprising:
• a top surface;
• a bottom surface with a resilient pad coupled thereto;
• two oppositely disposed long sides;
• two oppositely disposed short ends;
• and
• at least one opening formed through the support platform, the opening positioned proximate one short end,
• wherein the opening is dimensioned to receive and secure the J-shaped hook end of the attachment device.

A support system for a roof jack comprising:

• an attachment device comprising:
• an elongated body;
• a J-shaped hook end disposed at one end of the body;
• a T-shaped flat end disposed at an opposite end of the body;
• and
• a roof jack mount coupled to the body;
• and
• a support platform having a rectangular shape and comprising:
• a top surface;
• a bottom surface with a resilient pad coupled thereto;
• two oppositely disposed long sides;
• two oppositely disposed short ends;
• four horizontal crossmembers formed on the top surface of the support platform, the horizontal crossmembers extending from an interior surface of one side of the support platform to an interior surface of the other side of the support platform;
• one vertical crossmember formed on the top surface of the support platform, the vertical crossmember extending from one horizontal crossmember proximate one end of the support platform to another horizontal crossmember proximate the other end of the support platform;
• six recessed areas on the top surface of the support platform, six recessed areas formed by the four horizontal crossmembers and the vertical crossmember together;
• and
• at least one opening formed through one horizontal crossmember that is positioned proximate one short end, wherein the opening is dimensioned to receive and secure the J-shaped hook end of the attachment device,
• wherein when the attachment device is coupled to the support platform, the J-shaped hook end of the attachment device is coupled to the opening formed through the one horizontal crossmember that is positioned proximate the one end of the support platform and the T-shaped flat end of the attachment device is positioned flush against a sidewall of an adjacent horizontal crossmember.

• and
• a second short end edge;
• a hook end disposed at one end of the body;
• a flat end disposed at an opposite end of the body, the flat end being formed by:
• one curved foot extending perpendicularly from the second short end edge of one side wall of the body;
• and
• another curved foot extending perpendicularly from the second short end edge of another side wall of the body,
• wherein the two curved feet are oppositely disposed from each other and extend laterally in opposing directions relative to the front wall of the body of the attachment device;
• and
• a roof jack mount coupled to the body.
