Abstract

The fence has welded trellis panels fixed on a post, where the panels are constituted of two sets of yarns. The yarns are intersected and welded between the panels. The two sets of yarns are maintained at a distance, whose value is equal to a thickness of the post, for partially housing the post. A semi cage (4) is formed at each end of the panels by positioning a stop (6) at a specific distance from a vertical edge (5) of the yarns, where the distance is equal to half of width of the post.

Description

L'invention se rapporte à une clôture.The invention relates to a fence.

Elle se rapporte plus particulièrement à une clôture destinée à servir de support d'accrochage pour les feuillages de plants.It relates more particularly to a fence intended to serve as a hanging support for plant foliage.

Une clôture est constituée de poteaux maintenant un treillis vertical.A fence consists of poles holding a vertical lattice.

Il existe des treillis souples mais de plus en plus souvent, on fait appel à des panneaux rigides disposés entre les poteaux.There are flexible lattices but more and more often, rigid panels are used between the posts.

Ces panneaux rigides sont constitués par des fils horizontaux et des fils verticaux soudés les uns les autres à leurs intersections.These rigid panels are constituted by horizontal son and vertical son welded to each other at their intersections.

Certains panneaux comportent, de part et d'autre des fils horizontaux, des fils verticaux toujours soudés sur le fil horizontal médian cela dans le but d'accroire la résistance du panneau.Some panels have, on either side of the horizontal son, vertical son always welded on the median horizontal wire in order to increase the strength of the panel.

Ces panneaux sont maintenus sur les poteaux à l'aide d'accessoires tel des brides ou des clips ou bien les poteaux présentent le long de leurs axe vertical des crochets qui viennent saisir le fil extrême vertical .These panels are held on the posts using accessories such as flanges or clips or the posts have along their vertical axis hooks that come to grasp the extreme vertical wire.

Souvent le poteau a globalement une forme de H pour délimiter deux feuillures dans chacune desquelles vient se loger l'extrémité du panneau.Often the post has generally an H shape to delimit two rabbets in each of which is housed the end of the panel.

La vocation de ces clôtures est la sécurité et elles sont largement utilisées pour les locaux industriels.The purpose of these fences is security and they are widely used for industrial premises.

On connait EP 1 152 105 ou DE 3309542 qui décrivent chacun un panneau simple de clôture comportant des plis en sorte de pouvoir y insérer un poteau.We know EP 1 152 105 or DE 3309542 each of which describes a single fence panel with folds so that a post can be inserted therein.

Le document EP 1 152 105 décrit une clôture ayant les caractéristiques du préambule de la revendication 1.The document EP 1 152 105 describes a fence having the features of the preamble of claim 1.

La sécurité pour les maisons particulières est également un souhait mais l'aspect esthétique est important.Security for private homes is also a wish but the aesthetic aspect is important.

Certes le treillis du type précité peut servir de support pour des plantes grimpantes mais il n'est pas optimisé pour cela.Certainly the lattice of the aforementioned type can serve as a support for climbing plants but it is not optimized for this.

L'invention propose une solution nouvelle pour former une clôture.The invention proposes a novel solution for forming a fence.

A cet effet l'invention a pour objet une clôture selon la revendication 1.For this purpose the invention relates to a fence according to claim 1.

L'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description ci après faite à titre d'exemple non limitatif en regard du dessin qui représente

  • FIG 1 Vue en perspective d'une clôture
  • FIG 2 Vue de dessus d'une clôture
The invention will be better understood from the following description given by way of non-limiting example with reference to the drawing which represents
  • FIG 1 Perspective view of a fence
  • FIG 2 Top view of a fence

En se reportant au dessin, on voit une clôture 1 en cours d'assemblage. Celle ci est notamment destiné à être couverte par les tiges foliaires de plantes installées à sa base.Referring to the drawing, we see a fence 1 being assembled. This is particularly intended to be covered by the leaf stems of plants installed at its base.

Classiquement la clôture est composée de panneaux 2 en treillis soudés venant se fixer sur un poteau 3. Chaque panneau est plan et ne comporte pas de pli pour le raidir.Conventionally the fence is composed of panels 2 welded mesh being fixed on a pole 3. Each panel is flat and has no fold to stiffen it.

Avantageusement, les panneaux 2 sont constitués d'une première nappe 2A de fils verticaux et horizontaux entrecroisés et soudés entres eux, d'une seconde nappe 2B de fils verticaux et horizontaux entrecroisés et soudés entre eux, les deux nappes étant maintenues à distance l'une de l'autre d'une valeur E au moins égale à l'épaisseur G du poteau de sorte à venir loger le dit poteau enter les deux nappes.Advantageously, the panels 2 consist of a first ply 2A of vertical and horizontal son crisscrossed and welded together, a second ply 2B of vertical and horizontal son intersecting and welded together, the two plies being kept at a distance. one of the other of a value E at least equal to the thickness G of the pole so as to accommodate the said pole enter the two layers.

Les fils entrecroisés de chaque nappe sont à angle droit.The intertwined threads of each ply are at right angles.

Les faces internes de chaque nappe vont donc venir en regard des faces 3A, 3B externes du poteau qui sera donc à l'intérieur du volume délimité par les deux nappes.The internal faces of each sheet will therefore come opposite the external faces 3A, 3B of the post which will therefore be inside the volume delimited by the two sheets.

Les faces externes du poteau sont celles parallèles au plan du panneau.The outer faces of the post are those parallel to the plane of the panel.

De préférence, une demi cage 4 est formée à chaque extrémité du panneau en positionnant des butées 6 , comme par exemple, l'une des faces des éléments 7 dit de liaison des première et deuxième nappes, à une distance du bord vertical 5 de la nappe sensiblement égale à la demi largeur du poteau.Preferably, a half-cage 4 is formed at each end of the panel by positioning abutments 6, such as, for example, one of the faces of elements 7 referred to as connecting the first and second plies, at a distance from the vertical edge 5 of the web substantially equal to the half width of the post.

La demi cage en U sera délimitée par les deux faces internes des nappes 2A, 2B et les éléments de liaison 7 des deux nappes. Cela va donc agir comme une feuillure venant coiffer latéralement le poteau.The U-shaped half-cage will be delimited by the two inner faces of the plies 2A, 2B and the connecting elements 7 of the two plies. This will act as a rabbet coming laterally cap the post.

On fabrique chaque nappe plan 2A, 2B indépendamment, puis on les assemble avec les éléments 7 de liaison. Ainsi on obtient des panneaux doubles.Each flat sheet 2A, 2B is manufactured independently and then assembled with the connecting elements 7. Thus we obtain double panels.

Avantageusement, le poteau comporte, sur les faces externes recevant en applique une nappe, une rainure 8 dont la largeur permet de passer au moins un lien ou une agrafe 90 venant saisir les fils extrêmes verticaux des deux panneaux emboîtés sur le poteau et les solidariser.Advantageously, the post comprises, on the outer faces receiving applied a web, a groove 8 whose width allows to pass at least one link or staple 90 to seize the vertical end son of the two panels nested on the pole and secure them.

Les panneaux seront ainsi calés.The panels will be wedged.

Le poteau aura, par exemple, une section en H, la branche 9 médiane du H étant dans le plan médian de la clôture ou du panneau.The post will have, for example, an H section, the median branch 9 H being in the median plane of the fence or panel.

Le fait de constituer deux nappes maintenues écartées par des éléments de liaison permet d'utiliser du fil de plus faible section qui se dissimule plus facilement tout en obtenant une bonne rigidité du panneauThe fact of forming two sheets held apart by connecting elements makes it possible to use wire of smaller section which is more easily concealed while obtaining a good rigidity of the panel

De préférence, les nappes ont des mailles carrées ou rectangulaires et lorsque ces nappes sont assemblées les mailles d'une nappe sont décalée en hauteur par rapport aux mailles de l'autre nappe.Preferably, the plies have square or rectangular meshes and when these plies are assembled, the stitches of one ply are offset in height relative to the stitches of the other ply.

Ainsi, les feuilles peuvent cheminer d'une nappe vers l'autre en s'appuyant sur des fils horizontaux disposés selon un demi pas par rapport aux fils horizontaux d'une nappe.Thus, the sheets can travel from one sheet to the other by leaning on horizontal son arranged in half a step with respect to the horizontal son of a sheet.

Les éléments de liaison sont des fils pliés en zig-zag soudés au sommet de l'onde sur des fils transversaux. de chaque nappe. On pourrait également utiliser des pièces fixées après mise en place des nappes sur place lors de la construction de la clôture.The connecting elements are zig-zag folded wires welded to the top of the wave on transverse wires. of each tablecloth. Fixed parts could also be used after placement of the sheets on site during the construction of the fence.

Le bord supérieur de chaque nappe sera, de préférence, plié en direction de l'autre nappe pour fermer la partie supérieure du panneau.The upper edge of each web will preferably be folded toward the other web to close the top of the panel.

Cela permet éventuellement de suspendre la grille sur le haut des poteaux.This eventually allows to suspend the grid on the top of the posts.

En coupant certains fils horizontaux d'une des nappes, on peut cintrer le panneau.By cutting some horizontal wires from one of the plies, you can bend the panel.

Dans une forme évoluée, on utilise une pièce de verrouillage 10 en forme de plaquette élastique venant s'appliquer sur la face externe des nappes au droit du poteau et dont les deux bords viennent en prise avec deux rebords intérieurs du poteau en H.In an evolved form, a resilient plate-shaped locking piece 10 is used which is applied to the outer face of the plies in line with the post and whose two edges engage with two inner edges of the H-post.

La plaquette a donc une zone médiane sensiblement plane ou courbe destinée à venir en appui sur l'extérieur de la nappe et de part et d'autre de cette zone médiane, une zone externe formant un crochet tourné vers l'extérieur venant en prise avec une butée d'appui, par exemple, réalisée par une surépaisseur du bord des ailes du H.The wafer therefore has a substantially flat or curved median zone intended to bear on the outside of the ply and on either side of this median zone, an external zone forming an outwardly-facing hook engaging with a bearing abutment, for example, made by an extra thickness of the edge of the wings of H.

Avantageusement, une échancrure 11 latérale de la plaquette permet de chevaucher un fil horizontal.Advantageously, a lateral notch 11 of the wafer makes it possible to overlap a horizontal wire.
