Abstract
A rebar hanger is arranged for suspending rebars within a concrete form prior to pouring concrete. It is comprised of a downwardly directed form hook for hooking on top of a concrete form. A first rebar hook extends away from the lower end of an inner section of the form hook. The first rebar hook has a first downward dip for supporting a first rebar, and an upwardly directed and recurved distal end. A brace extends from the recurved distal end of the first rebar hook downwardly and outwardly toward an inner side of the concrete form. An inner end of the brace is positioned against the inner side of the form substantially below a position of the first hook. A second rebar hook extends downwardly and inwardly from the inner end of the brace. The second rebar hook has a second downward dip for supporting a second rebar.
Claims11
A rebar hanger, comprising:
- a form hook for hooking on top of a concrete form, wherein said form hook is comprised of a transverse section for engaging a top of said form, a downwardly projecting outer section for engaging an outer side of said form, and a downwardly projecting inner section for engaging an inner side of said form;
- a first rebar hook extending outwardly from a lower end of said inner section of said form hook, wherein said first rebar hook has a first downward dip for supporting a first rebar, and an upwardly directed and recurved distal end;
- and
- a brace extending inwardly from said recurved distal end of said first rebar hook for engaging said inner side of said form and preventing said first rebar hook from sagging;
- and
- a second rebar hook extending outwardly from an inner end of said brace, wherein said second rebar hook includes a second downward dip for supporting a second rebar below said first rebar, said second rebar hook includes an upwardly directed distal end;
- wherein said rebar hanger is shaped for being entirely bent from a single continuous piece of steel rod for economy.
A rebar hanger, comprising:
- a form hook for hooking on top of a concrete form, wherein said form hook is comprised of a transverse section for engaging a top of said form, a downwardly projecting outer section for engaging an outer side of said form, and a downwardly projecting inner section for engaging an inner side of said form;
- a first rebar hook extending outwardly from a lower end of said inner section of said form hook, wherein said first rebar hook has a first downward dip for supporting a first rebar, and an upwardly directed and recurved distal end;
- and
- a brace extending inwardly from said recurved distal end of said first rebar hook for engaging said inner side of said form and preventing said first rebar hook from sagging;
- a supplemental hanger comprised of a downwardly directed top hook hooked onto said first rebar hook, and an upwardly directed supplemental hook connected to said top hook, wherein said supplemental hook includes a vertical portion connected to said top hook, a supplemental dip at a lower end of said vertical portion for supporting a supplemental rebar directly below said rebar, and a recurved distal end on said dip;
- and
- a supplemental brace extending inwardly from said recurved distal end of said supplemental hook for engaging said inner side of said concrete form.
A rebar hanger, comprising:
- a form hook for hooking on top of a concrete form, wherein said form hook is comprised of a transverse section for engaging a top of said form, a downwardly projecting outer section for engaging an outer side of said form, and a downwardly projecting inner section for engaging an inner side of said form;
- a first rebar hook extending outwardly from a lower end of said inner section of said form hook, wherein said first rebar hook has a first downward dip for supporting a first rebar, and an upwardly directed and recurved distal end;
- and
- a brace extending inwardly from said recurved distal end of said first rebar hook for engaging said inner side of said form and preventing said first rebar hook from sagging;
- and
- an anchor bolt bracket attached to said first rebar hook and said brace for engaging a vertical anchor bolt, wherein said bracket is comprised of a top loop attached to said first rebar hook and a bottom loop attached to said brace for encircling said anchor bolt.
