Perimeter safety net system for multi-story buildings under construction

Details

Inventors: Brickman, Morley;
Assignee:
Primary Examiner: Machado; Reinaldo P.
Assistant Examiner:
Attorney, Agent or Firm: McCaleb, Lucas & Brugman

A safety system for a multi-story building under construction includes parallel, vertical stationary guide channels or tracks secured to the side of the building. Vertically moveable slide rails are slidably mounted within the guide channels. Cantilever struts extend diagonally upwardly and outwardly from connections with the slide rails. A safety net extends along the building with its outer edge anchored at the outer ends of the struts and with its inner edge anchored on the moveable slide rails. Vertical chains or cables are connected between the slide rails and a construction crane at the top of the building to lift the slide rails and net while in an extended condition to a new working position. Brakes acting between the slide rails and guide channels automatically release to enable upward movement and automatically lock to hold the net in the new working position.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The general object of this invention is to provide a safety net system for the perimeter of a multi-story building under construction.
An object of this invention is to provide such a safety net system which can be moved upwardly from floor to floor as construction of the building progresses, without dismantling and re-assembling it.
Another object is to provide such a safety net system which can be moved upwardly from floor to floor in fully extended condition and be ready for use immediately.
Another object is to provide such a safety net system which is readily retractable flatwise against the building to provide clearance for construction equipment and supplies being hoisted alongside the building.
Another object is to provide such a safety net system which is readily retractable flatwise against the building and the outer edge raisable so that debris, which may fall into the net, can be easily removed.
