Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fence of the type corresponding to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a fence is known from DE-PS 26 45 905.
  • the holding elements consist of clamping tabs made of flat iron, which are distributed over the height of the lattice panel on the front of the post and are connected to the post by a series of screws which engage in rivet nuts in the post. The ends of the adjacent lattice panels are clamped between the clamping tab and the front of the post.
  • the "front of the post” is to be understood as the side of the post on which the lattice panels are located.
  • the lattice panels consist of 4 mm to 12 mm thick rods made of iron wire, which form a right-angled lattice and are connected to one another at the crossing points by resistance welding.
  • the grids are provided with rust protection after welding.
  • the bars run horizontally and vertically.
  • the aforementioned features are also present in the preferred embodiment of the invention, but they are not mandatory.
  • the bars do not have to be made of steel, nor do they have to run vertically and horizontally. Lattices with oblique lattice bars also fall under the invention.
  • the invention has for its object to simplify the attachment of the lattice panels to the posts.
  • the lattice panels can be attached to the post with a handle and after that only the locking is necessary. It is sufficient if the locking is only provided at one point on the height of the post or the lattice panel.
  • the hooks should be the otherwise self-supporting, i.e. Wear dimensionally stable lattice panels alone.
  • the undertaking of horizontal wires on fences is known per se, but it is the tension wires of chain link fences (DE-OSen 22 29 040, 21 64 492), i.e. Fences in which the fence surfaces are limp and need to be stabilized by the bracing. The fence surfaces cannot be connected to the post by simply hanging them in.
  • the hooks should be provided at at least two points on the height of the post or the lattice panels (claim 2). In general, however, more than two hooks will be distributed over the height of the post or the lattice panel, also in order to stabilize the lattice panel in the event of a load against buckling in a vertical plane.
  • the hooks can be designed according to claim 3.
  • tongue-like cutouts are punched out of the web of a U-profile and remain connected to the material of the web at the lower end.
  • the tongues are pushed through and bent upwards at the free end to form the hook.
  • the hooks can be butt-welded onto the front of the profile material.
  • the profiles can be both open profiles in the form of U-profiles or I-profiles, but can also consist of closed hollow profiles.
  • Another possible embodiment includes posts made of grid material, as is known per se from DE-GM 69 05 441.
  • the strips of lattice material forming the posts can be delimited in parallel or can be wider at the bottom for reasons of stability.
  • the hooks can in this case be formed by horizontal bars which project to the front of the post thus formed and are bent upwards.
  • the locking of the lattice panels against re-leading out of the hooks up can be formed in the simplest way according to claim 6 by a deformation brought about with a bending or striking tool at least one of the hooks.
  • the locking device can be formed by a screw, which can have advantages with regard to the protection of the anti-corrosion layer on the hook and the detected bars.
  • the locking screw can be fixed to an eyelet in the manner shown in claim 8 and additionally engage in the front of the post according to claim 9 or, alternatively, only engage in the front of the post according to claim 10.
  • Claim 13 reproduces a design that facilitates locking by deforming the hook.
  • the fence 100 consists of grid panels 1, 1 'consisting of a rectangular grid of horizontal bars 2 and vertical bars 3 welded to one another at the crossing points in the manner of a structural steel mesh mat.
  • the lattice panels 1, 1 have a length of, for example, 2.5 m in the horizontal direction and extend from one post 10 to the next. They consist of iron wire with a diameter of 4 mm to 12 mm and are dimensionally stable, i.e. stable in itself, so that they do not need any additional means to stabilize the fence area, as is necessary in the form of the tension wires in fences made of limp wire mesh.
  • holding elements 5 of which only two are present in FIG. 1 over the height of the post 10, one of which acts on the lowest horizontal bar 2 and the other on the second uppermost horizontal bar 2 .
  • more holding elements can also be distributed over the height of the posts, for example one for each individual horizontal bar 2.
  • the design of the posts 10 and the holding elements 5 is shown in detail in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the posts 10 consist of a hollow profile of square cross-section, which is covered at the upper end by a cover plate 6 which protrudes toward the side of the lattice panels.
  • the holding elements 5 are formed by right-angled hooks 7 made of round material, which are butt welded to the front wall 9 of the post 10 with a leg running perpendicular to the fence surface at 8 in the manner of a stud weld.
  • the lattice panels 1 rest on the hooks 7 with the horizontal bars 2, 2.
  • the free legs 17 of the hook 7 extend upwards.
  • the free leg is formed into an eyelet 11 located parallel to the fence surface, through which a screw 12 extends, which also engages in a blind nut 13 in the front wall 9 of the post 10.
  • the grid plate 1 is prevented by the screw 12 from exiting the hooks 7, 7 'upwards.
  • the screw 12 thus forms a locking mechanism for the lattice panel 1. It only needs to be present at one point on the height of the post 10.
  • the horizontal bars 2 arranged at the same height on both sides of the vertical bars 3 are cut away on one side between the last two vertical bars 3 and 3 'or 3 and 3 ", in reverse order, so that the terminal vertical bar 3" of the lattice panel 1 can reach over the terminal vertical rod 3 'of the lattice panel 1', as can be seen in FIG. 3.
  • the grating panels 1, 1 ' are also secured in the horizontal direction by the hooks 7, 7' reaching between the terminal vertical bars 3 'and 3 "and the screw 12.
  • FIG. 5 shows another embodiment in which two hooks 7 are attached to a post 10 next to each other at the same height.
  • the lattice panels 1 and 1 'do not need to end on one side between the last two vertical bars, but there is securing in the horizontal direction by the arrangement by the terminal vertical bars 3 "' between the hooks 7.
  • the locking is carried out as in the embodiment according to 1 to 4.
  • the posts 20 consist of upright strips made of a lattice material which are arranged perpendicular to the lattice surface.
  • the post 20 comprises mutually parallel vertical bars 23, each of which is opposite to the other are arranged on both sides of horizontal bars 22. At least two of the horizontal bars 22 ′ protrude to the right, as shown in FIG. 6, over the right vertical bar forming the right boundary of the post 20 and form upwardly bent hooks there, which have the same function as in FIGS. 2 to 4.
  • the second uppermost horizontal bar 22 "of the post 20 has a hook 7 'with an eyelet 11 which corresponds to the eyelet 11 in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the screw 12 passes through the eyelet 11 and the two vertical bars 23 of the post 20 adjacent to the lattice panels 1, 1' in order to be screwed into a nut 13 on the rear side thereof.
  • the fence post 20 'of Fig. 9 corresponds to the fence post 20 with the exception that the horizontal bar 22 "has no hook 7' and no eyelet but ends straight to the right of the terminal vertical bar 23 of the post 20 '.
  • the lattice boards are at the top of overlapped a screw 12 ', which is offset upwards by the thickness of the horizontal bars 2, 2 from the horizontal bar 22 "and screwed into the nut 13 and has a protruding head 14, which is from the outside in front of the uppermost horizontal bar 2 of the lattice panels 1 , 1 'sets.
  • the horizontal bars 32 of the fence post 30 are designed as U-shaped brackets located in a horizontal plane, to which the vertical bars 23 are welded on the outside and which protrude beyond the right vertical bars 23 in order to form the hooks 7 there .
  • This embodiment is somewhat more stable than that of FIGS. 6 to 9, in which the horizontal bars 22, 22 ′, 22 ′′ lie to a certain extent in one plane.
  • the lattice panels 1, 1 'at the ends as well as in FIG. 5 can again be cut off smoothly, the terminal vertical bars 3 ′′ being arranged between the hooks 7, 7.
  • the lock comprises a plate 15 welded between the right vertical bars 23 of the post 30, against which the two terminal vertical bars 3 "'of the lattice panels 1, 1' according to FIG. 10 abut from the right.
  • a clamping disc 16 which is tightened by a screw 12 against the plate 15.
  • FIG. 11 shows a first embodiment of a post 40 in the form of a U-profile with legs 41 and a web 42, from which a tongue 43 is partially stamped that it is still connected to the material of the web 42 at the lower end.
  • the tongue 43 is pressed out of the corresponding cutout 44 of the web 42 to the right and forms the hook 7, which receives the horizontal bars 2 of the lattice panels 1, 1 '.
  • the upward-pointing free leg of the hook 7 can be removed from the starting position shown in broken lines using a suitable tool, e.g. 11 has been deformed by a hammer blow into the state shown in FIG. 11 so that the right horizontal bar 2 of the lattice panels 1, 1 'is partially overlapped and the lattice panels 1, 1' can no longer get out of the hook 7.
  • a screw is unnecessary.
  • the method of locking by deforming the hook 7 can also be implemented on a post with that of FIGS. 2 to 5, as shown in FIGS. 12 to 14.
  • the hook 7 has an outwardly angled, extended end 7 ′′ of the upwardly directed leg 17, which is brought out of the starting position shown in FIG. 12 by deforming the hook 7 into the end position shown in dashed lines in FIG. 12 can, in which the angled end 7 "points vertically upwards and the hook partially overlaps the right horizontal bar 2.
  • the angled end 7 is not only advantageous for optical reasons, but also offers a possibility of attack for a bending tool with an extended lever arm, whereby the deformation of the hook 7 is facilitated.
  • the deformation of the hook 7 for the purpose of locking can also be carried out on posts made of grid material, as can be seen from FIGS. 15 and 16, which correspond to FIGS. 6 and 8, and FIG. 17, which corresponds to FIG. 10.
  • the fence post 20 "of FIG. 15 differs from the fence post of FIG. 6 by the absence of the eyelet 11 on the uppermost hook 7 and by the fact that the uppermost horizontal bar of the fence post 20" is formed by a bow-like bend 23 'of the vertical bars 23.
  • the embodiment 30 'according to FIG. 17 differs only from that according to FIG. 10 in that the screw 12 is missing and the hook 7 in the 15 apparent manner are present.
