Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a balcony planter support.
  • a planter is presented as a tub or similar receptacle of elongated shape, in which flowers or other ornamental plants are grown, and which is used either inside an apartment, or on a balcony or a terrace.
  • the planter is placed against the balustrade of the balcony, and it is hung on the handrail.
  • the present invention aims to eliminate these drawbacks, by providing a balcony planter support which is simple to use, requiring neither screws nor nuts, while being easily adaptable to various dimensions of handrails and planters to ensure in all case a stable fixation, and which is achievable in a material whose quality and appearance do not degrade over time.
  • the balcony planter support is made of synthetic material and comprises, essentially, a substantially vertical upright provided, towards its lower part, with a console facing forward and provided for support the weight of the planter, and towards its upper part, of two superimposed arms integral with the upright, substantially horizontal and turned towards the rear, which are able to be connected together by a removable vertical bar adjustable in position at a distance more or less of the upright, so that the upper part of the upright, the two arms and the bar can entwine the handrail of a balcony railing.
  • the two horizontal arms have notched faces
  • the vertical bar is pierced with two openings intended to be crossed by the two respectively arms, the edges of these openings hooking onto the notches of the corresponding arms.
  • the number and the pitch of these notches determine the possibilities of adjusting the position of the bar.
  • the planter support object of the invention also comprises, towards its lower part, a substantially horizontal and rearward facing strip, which is mounted adjustable in position in the front-rear direction relative to the upright, and which has, at its rear end, a cleat provided to bear against the railing. Thanks to this strip provided with a cleat, the support is always kept plumb. For holding and adjusting the position of the strip, a series of openings can be provided distributed over the length of this strip, while the upright comprises, at its lower end, at least two retaining hooks intended to be engaged in certain openings, suitably chosen, of the strip.
  • the cleat integral with this strip has, advantageously, a bearing face whose horizontal dimension, measured transversely to the strip, is greater than the interval usually separating the bars of a balcony balustrade, which gives the certainty that, in the case of a bar balustrade, the cleat will always bear against at least one bar.
  • the console carries a movable stop, adjustable in position in the front-rear direction, and designed to retain the front part of the planter, while allowing adjustment of the support as a function of the width of the planter.
  • This stop can be carried by a horizontal strip provided with a series of openings distributed over its length, while the console comprises at least two retaining hooks intended to be engaged in certain openings, suitably chosen, of this strip.
  • the upright may also include on its front face, and at different levels, hooks provided for retaining the rear part of the planter, in the case of a planter provided with a rim at its top.
  • hooks provided for retaining the rear part of the planter, in the case of a planter provided with a rim at its top.
  • the heights of the planters being standardized, it will be easy to provide these latter hooks at suitable heights, relative to the level of the console.
  • the planter support object of the invention consists of only four separate parts, namely: a first part, or main body, consisting of the upright, the console and the two arms - a second piece consisting of the bar - a third part constituted by the strip comprising the support cleat - a fourth part constituted by the stop integral with another strip.
  • a first part, or main body consisting of the upright, the console and the two arms - a second piece consisting of the bar - a third part constituted by the strip comprising the support cleat - a fourth part constituted by the stop integral with another strip.
  • These four parts are available in molded synthetic material, with all their special features such as hooks and various openings.
  • the material chosen provides the elasticity necessary in particular for the attachment of the bar on the notches of the two arms, and this material retains its quality and its original appearance for a period which may be very long.
  • the invention relates generally to the attachment of a planter 1, in the form of an elongated tray, to a balcony railing 2.
  • the attachment of the planter 1 is provided to the by means of two supports 3, which are fixed to the handrail 4 of the railing 2 and which support this planter 1.
  • the precise object of the invention consists of the support 3, shown in more detail in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • This balcony planter support 3 is made up of four molded plastic parts, namely: a main body 5, a bar 6, a first strip 7 and a second strip 8, these four parts being clearly distinguished in FIG. 2.
  • the main body 5 comprises an upright 9, substantially vertical. Towards its lower part, the upright 9 is provided with a console 10 facing forward. Towards its upper part, the same upright 9 is provided with two superimposed arms 11 and 12, substantially horizontal which are turned towards the rear.
  • the two arms 11 and 12, integral with the upright 9, have notched faces located in correspondence. More particularly, the upper arm 11 has notches 13 on its upper face, while the lower arm 12 has notches 14 on its lower face.
  • the bar 6, arranged vertically, is pierced with two openings 15 and 16, having a "T" shape corresponding to the profiles of the two arms 11 and 12.
  • the openings 15 and 16 of the bar 6 are thus provided to be traversed respectively by the two arms 11 and 12, the edges of these openings 15 and 16 hooking onto the respective notches 13 and 14 of the arms 11 and 12. It is understood that these notches 13 and 14 make it possible to adjust the position of the bar 6, which can thus be placed at a greater or lesser distance D from the upright 9.
  • the two arms 11 and 12 are engaged respectively above and below the handrail 4 of the balustrade 2, before fitting the bar 6 Then, the bar 6 is engaged on the two arms 11 and 12, to connect these two arms by embracing the handrail 4, the position adjustment of this bar 6 making it possible to adapt the support 3 to the width of the handrail 4.
  • the first strip 7, shown alone in FIG. 4, comprises two parallel vertical wings 17 connected together by bridges of material 18, delimiting a series of openings 19 distributed over the length of this strip 7.
  • Two retaining hooks 20, formed at the lower end of the upright 9, are provided to be engaged in two selected openings 19 of the strip 7.
  • the strip 7 is held horizontally under the main body 5, its position being adjustable in the front-rear direction.
  • the first strip 7 comprises a cleat 21, extending transversely to this strip 7.
  • Triangular reinforcements 22 connect the lateral parts of the cleat 21 to the two wings 17 of the strip 7.
  • This cleat 21 is designed to take support against the railing 2, and more particularly against at least one bar 23 of the railing 2,
  • the length L of the bearing face of the cleat 21 is chosen to be greater than the interval which usually separates the bars 23 of such a balcony railing 2.
  • the second bar 8 also has, between two parallel vertical wings 24, a series of openings 25 distributed over the length of this bar 8.
  • the console 10 is provided, on its upper face, with three retaining hooks 26 designed to be engaged in selected openings 25 of the strip 8.
  • the strip 8 is held horizontally on the console 10, its position being adjustable in the front-rear direction.
  • the second strip 8 carries a stop 27, provided for retaining either directly the front part of the planter 1, or the front edge of a sort of saucer 28 on which the planter 1 rests - see Figures 1 and 3 It is understood that the adjustment of the strip 8 makes it possible to adapt the support 3 to various widths of the planter 1 and / or of the saucer 28.
  • the upright 9 also comprises, on its front face and at different levels, hooks 29 facing upwards, and provided for retaining the rear part of the planter 1. As shown in FIG. 3, one of the hooks 29 , located at a suitable height, is engaged under the upper edge 30 of the planter 1.
  • the upright 9 also has, towards its upper part, an enlarged zone 31 forming a sort of plate, in which two holes 32 are formed.
  • a vertical wall such as a wall or a partition
  • the support 3 is obviously used without the bar 6 and without the first strip 7.
