System for Hollow Metal Frame Installation - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240026725 titled 'System for Hollow Metal Frame Installation

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system for installing hollow metal frames (HMF) in walls. The system includes several components such as a retaining shim, head leveler, cross string clip, plumb bob clip, and HMF spreader.

  • The retaining shim is used to adjust the thickness of the HMF to match the desired wall finish.
  • The head leveler is used to ensure that the HMF is level.
  • The cross string clip is used to measure the alignment of the HMF.
  • The plumb bob clip is used to measure the vertical alignment (plumbness) of the HMF.
  • The HMF spreader is used to correct any deficiencies in the opening size of the HMF.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Construction industry: This system can be used by contractors and builders to efficiently install hollow metal frames in walls.
  • Interior design: The system can help ensure precise and accurate installation of HMF, resulting in better overall aesthetics of the finished space.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Inaccurate installation: The system provides tools to measure and adjust the alignment and plumbness of the HMF, ensuring accurate installation.
  • Inconsistent wall finish thickness: The retaining shim allows for adjustment of the HMF to match the desired wall finish thickness, resulting in a uniform appearance.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Time-saving: The system provides tools that simplify and streamline the installation process, reducing the time required for installation.
  • Improved accuracy: The use of tools like the head leveler, cross string clip, and plumb bob clip ensures precise alignment and plumbness of the HMF, resulting in a professional and high-quality installation.
  • Versatility: The system can be used with different types of hollow metal frames and in various construction projects.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system for hollow metal frame installation comprising at least one retaining shim, a head leveler, at least one cross string clip, a plumb bob clip, and a hmf spreader. the at least one retaining shim is configured to shim an hmf to desired wall finish thickness. the head leveler is configured to raise the hmf to be level. the at least one cross string clip is configured to measure alignment of the hmf. the plumb bob clip is configured to measure the plumbness of the hmf. the hmf spreader is configured correct deficiencies in the opening size of the hmf.
