Reglet structure

Details

Attorney, Agent or Firm: Gerlach; Norman H.

A reglet channel having an unimpaired apron depending from the outer edge of its upper flange down to the level of the outer edge of its lower flange to protect the sealing compound in the interior of the channel from the deleterious effects of rain and sunlight, i.e., softening, seepage, drying-out and shrinkage. For ease in manufacture by extrusion processes, the lower marginal portion of the apron may be integral with the lower flange of the channel and may be provided with a single groove in its outer surface extending parallel and adjacent to the outer edge of the lower flange. After installation in a wall the reglet channel may be slit open along this groove to provide access to its interior for engagement of the retaining lip of the flashing. The apron, if unimpaired, provides the additional advantage of holding the installed flashing in position without the need for retaining wedges. Thus, it saves the cost of special retaining components for the flashing and the cost of labor for the installation of these components.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Having reference to the drawing, the reglet structure of my invention comprises a channel 10 of extruded plastic material having upper and lower flanges 12a and 12b, respectively, that may be arranged in forwardly converging planes as shown, and which are connected at their diverged ends by a bight portion 14.
Depending from the free end of the upper flange 12a and integral therewith is an apron 15 which reaches down to the level of the outer end of the lower flange 12b and which may be integral with said lower flange so that initially the reglet channel is in fact tubular.
Depending from the outer edge of the lower flange 12b is a relatively short lip 16 which terminates in an outwardly directed bead 18.
This lip and its bead enable the reglet to be attached in its proper position by means of "J" type nails 19 to the wooden form wall or other form panel 20 of a mold for concrete structures, such as walls or windows, as more particularly shown in FIG.
2.
In case the lower marginal portion of the apron 15 is integral with the lower flange 12b of the channel 10 and the reglet of the invention is closed all around and is in fact tubular, the outer surface of the apron 15 is provided with a single longitudinal V-shaped groove 22 that extends adjacent and parallel to the outer longitudinal edge portion of the lower flange 12b.
The described reglet whether filled with sealing compound or not, is easy to ship and to handle.
When the reglet is tubular as shown, it is easy to fill with a sealing compound by extruding the compound laterally into the reglet from one of its ends, and no masking tape or strip between the outer edge portions of the upper and lower flanges 12a and 12b is necessary to retain the compound in the reglet channel during the prefilling process and during shipping, and no masking strip or tape is necessary to prevent entrance of liquid concrete into the interior of the reglet channel when the concrete wall or other structure is formed around it
