Abstract
Abstract A wire clip conformed as a Z-shaped, planar wire platform, one end of the Z being bent out of the plane to form an insertable point to provide support for plaster patches. A stiff backing surface may thus be supported by the clips inserted at various points along the edges of the hole to be patched, the clips and the backing surface providing the necessary structure onto which the repair plaster may be accumulated.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
69 words
Apparatus for supporting a plaster patch in a plaster wall comprising: a wire clip convolved by bending to form a Z shaped substantially planar structure, one end of said Z shaped structure extending in an orthogonal segment aligned substantially normal to the plane thereof, the end of said orthogonal segment being bent to form a wall piercing segment directed substantially parallel to the plane of said Z shaped structure.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
69 words
Apparatus for supporting a plaster patch in a plaster wall comprising: a wire clip convolved by bending to form a Z shaped substantially planar structure, one end of said Z shaped structure extending in an orthogonal segment aligned substantially normal to the plane thereof, the end of said orthogonal segment being bent to form a wall piercing segment directed substantially parallel to the plane of said Z shaped structure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
Apparatus according to claim 1 wherein: said orthogonal segment is aligned substantially central relative said Z shaped structure.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
98 words
A method of effecting repairs in a plaster wall comprising the steps of: inserting a plurality of wire clips each convolved by bending to form a Z shaped substantially planar structure, one end of said Z shaped structure extending in an orthogonal segment aligned substantially normal to the plane thereof, the end of said orthogonal segment being bent to form a wall piercing segment directed substantially parallel to the plane of said Z shaped structure into the edges of said plaster wall; supporting a rigid backing surface on said clips; and depositing wet plaster on said backing surface.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
98 words
