Abstract
A duct hanging bracket device that easily fastens to both an air handling duct and a support structure is disclosed. The device includes an elongated linear segment with opposing parallel legs at each end. The legs each have an aperture, one for fastening to the duct and the other for fastening to the support surface. A stop member is spaced from one leg, such that the duct fits between the leg and the stop member, allowing for easy fastening of the duct to the leg.
Claims15
A duct hanging bracket member for supporting a duct member, said bracket member comprising:
- (a) a generally planar elongated linear segment with first and second ends,
- (b) a first leg section positioned at said linear segment first end and disposed essentially perpendicular thereto with an aperture centrally positioned there through, and
- (c) a second leg section positioned at said linear segment second end and disposed essentially perpendicular thereto and in opposition to said first leg section, said second leg section with an aperture centrally positioned there through, said first leg section aperture and said second leg section aperture positioned on opposite sides of the planar elongated linear segment, whereby said bracket member is secured to a support surface with a fastener positioned in said first leg section aperture, and a duct member positioned adjacent said elongated linear segment is supported and secured to said second leg section with a fastener positioned in said second leg section aperture.
A duct hanging bracket member for supporting a duct member, said bracket member comprising:
- (a) a generally planar elongated linear segment with first and second ends;
- (b) a first leg section positioned at said linear segment first end and disposed essentially perpendicular thereto with an aperture centrally positioned there through,
- (c) a second leg section positioned at said linear segment second end and disposed essentially perpendicular thereto and in opposition to said first leg section, said second leg section with an aperture centrally positioned there through, said first leg section aperture and said second leg section aperture positioned on opposite sides of the planar elongated linear segment;
- and
- (d) a stop means secured to said linear segment first end and disposed essentially perpendicular there to and in opposition to said first leg section, said stop means oriented parallel to said second leg section and in spaced apart relation therefrom, said stop means and second leg section spaced to accept a duct member there between, whereby said bracket member is secured to a support surface with a fastener positioned in said first leg section aperture, and a duct member positioned adjacent said elongated linear segment is supported and secured by said stop means and said second leg section with a fastener positioned in said second leg section aperture.
