DE1978396U - FENCE POST WITH STRUT CONNECTION. - Google Patents

Description

The present furnace concerns a post with a strut, which is used in fences and which, thanks to the novel arrangement and design, is easy to use with the help of a also newly designed strut can be well supported. Such a support is known to be necessary for reasons of stability at the ends or at the corners of a fence.

The essence of the present innovation is based on drawings explained in more detail. It shows:

Figure 1 shows a longitudinal section through part of a post with

inserted strut, the latter in an embodiment without Anchoring,

FIG. 2 shows a longitudinal section through part of a post with an inserted strut, the latter here in the embodiment with an anchoring ring,

Figure 3 is a partially sectioned view of one end of the strut according to the innovation in an embodiment without anchoring ring and '■.

FIG. 4 shows a partially sectioned view of an embodiment of the strut according to the innovation with an anchoring ring.

The post with strut in accordance with the innovation consists of the post 1 and the strut 2, which has a cap 3 attached. The V / and la of the post 1 can be painted on the outside or be provided with a sheath Ib in a known manner consists of a plastic layer pulled onto the wall of the post. At the top of the post has a hood Ic, for example made of plastic. üfeuer according to shows now the post has a hole Id into which the extension 3a of the Cap 3 fits inside. The cap 3 consists of an elastic, flexible material, preferably a suitable plastic and is firmly attached to the strut 2, for example by pulling it up or by gluing it on. The wall of the strut 2a can be surrounded by a cover 2d in the same way as that of the post. The vifand of the cap 3 and the extension 3a is thin against the outer dimensions of the cap, which makes it possible

is to insert the extension 3a, which is finger-like, into the bore Id. Is this hole id around a small amount smaller than the outer diameter of the port set 3a, the extension will only be under the action of force in insert the hole Id. The continuation goes in Inside the hollow post back to its relieved diameter and holds the post and thus the strut 2 in this Location fixed. The cap 3 is now, starting from the hand 3d, designed to be conically tapered, this tapering into the extension 3a merges, so that the strut rests against the outer wall of the post in accordance with the angle of the conical taper and can thus support it. The post and the strut are in this functional position in FIGS. 1 and 2 shown, in which the strut according to the innovation is connected to the post by being inserted into it. The extension 3a has in a further, preferred embodiment an anchoring ring 3c, which works on the principle of a barb prevents the extension inserted into the hole Id from slide out of the hole Id again. The holding effect of the extension 3a in the hole Id must also dadurph be reinforced that the strut 2, or its extension 3a, in a direction perpendicular to the center line of the post 1 inserted into this and then at an angle against bent the mentioned center line when creating the fence will. This results in an elastic bending of the extension · which by tilting the adhesive effect of the entire Reinforced arrangement. For this purpose, the hole Id with

their centerline perpendicular to the centerline of the post.

Since the extension of the cap or the post inserted into the post the strut completely closes the hole Id by elastic contact, the connection established in this way is not through Risk of corrosion. This fact is particularly important in Fences erected in the open air.

By applying the innovation it is possible to make connections Manufacture of posts with struts that do not have any particular makes disturbing fasteners necessary. The strut can also. at any time when dismantling the fence by simply Pulling the extension out of the hole Id of the post be separated. The cross-sections of the post and the strut are preferably circular and hollow. This is particularly cheap for production. For the essence of the innovation, however, the cross-sectional shape is not important, since it is easily possible to make the hole Id square to execute. In this case, the extension would also be provided with a square cross-section.
