Angularly adjustable cutter-bracket - is mounted on rafter and uses hinge between cradle and arm which is locked by fixed enmeshing toothed segments

摘要

The gutter bracket provides for angular adjustment between the support arm (1) and the cradle (3), and is fixed to a rafter (2) end. A cantilever arm (1) is cranked through an angle of approx. 150 degrees, and has nail holes (4) along its length. It terminates in a plan view fork (10B). A cradle provides a tongue (T) which enters the fork to be secured by a pin (6) through aligned holes (1B). Both the root of the fork and the tongue incorporate a series of triangular (5,8) teeth. These teeth lock the two components (1,3) against relative rotation (F), also permitting variation of their angular relationship to suit the rafter pitch.
