Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a metal fence comprising a post.
  • Panels have been in use for some time for making metal fences, made of electrically-welded metal wires, which in the process of erecting the fence are fixed to posts, also made of metal, in various ways; both the panels and the posts are normally, if not always, coated with plastic.
  • the panels are elements with generally flat extension and are made by means of intersections of horizontal and vertical wires which are electrically welded in the process of making the panel itself; very often, in order to obtain greater rigidity for the panel, its flat structure is modified by inserting ribs of various shapes and dimensions; these ribs are obtained by bending the vertical wires, and are arranged over rows normally parallel to and spaced apart from each other, forming structures (usually of triangular section), protruding from the plane of the panel, to whose vertex a corresponding horizontal wire is welded.
  • ribs of various shapes and dimensions
  • Fences of this type are generally erected by fixing a post, connecting one side of a panel to the post, connecting a second post to the other side of the panel, fixing the second post, connecting one side of another panel to the second post, and so on.
  • the posts can be sunk into the ground or can be fixed to supports anchored to fixed structures, such as for example low concrete walls.
  • the method of fixing the panels to the fence posts depends obviously on the structure and conformation of the post itself.
  • FR 2780432 discloses a metal section for making fence posts, the metal section comprising a hollow triangular section frame one side of which is extended perpendicularly in its middle by a T section flange.
  • the flange comprises two lateral small flanges with V notches located opposite and outside the frame. Each flange end is provided with a return in the shape of a tongue enabling the mounting of a cover.
  • An object of the present invention is to eliminate the disadvantages indicated above by providing posts for making a fence of the type described, which once assembled, present closed and standardised sections and which do not require the use of special tools or special fixing elements to secure the panels to the posts.
  • a considerable advantage of the invention is that, once one end of a panel has been fixed to a post, and while waiting for the other end to be fixed to the next post, a "self-supporting" intermediate structure is formed, which therefore allows the complete fence to be assembled by just one person.
  • a further advantage of the invention in question is that of permitting the reuse of at least some constituent elements of the post, even after the post has been fixed immovably to the ground.
  • Figure 1 illustrates part of a metal fence which is made using elements consisting of panels 1 and posts 2.
  • the panels 1 are substantially flat and are made with horizontal 1a and vertical 1b wires, electrically welded; the horizontal and vertical wires of the panels, normally of circular section and of a few millimetres in diameter, are electrically welded in the process of manufacture of the panel itself using normal machines for the manufacture of electrically welded meshes.
  • ribs which can be of various shapes and dimensions, obtained by bending the vertical wires; the ribs are arranged over rows normally parallel to and spaced apart from each other, forming structures protruding from the plane of the panel, to whose vertex a corresponding horizontal wire is welded.
  • An example of these ribs is illustrated in the panels in figure 1 .
  • the posts 2 are generally elements with longitudinal extension and are variously shaped so as to be able to connect the panels to them in order to obtain the fence; these posts are fixed to the ground and are normally sunk into the soil or fixed to supports anchored to fixed structures, such as for example low concrete walls.
  • the first shell is provided with two ends, respectively 3a and 3b, which have longitudinal extension, are profiled and each form a longitudinal recess, respectively 3a' and 3b', each of which is shaped so as to accept a vertical wire 1b of the panel, in particular each of the vertical end wires of the panels.
  • Each of the recesses 3a' and 3b' is formed by a first wall, respectively 33a and 33a', which is connected to the lateral wall of the shell and is located in a direction axial to the shell itself; in practice therefore the first walls 33a and 33a' are located perpendicularly to the lateral wall of the first shell, both run in the same direction, and are located facing each other.
  • Each of the recesses 3a and 3a' also comprises a second wall, respectively 33b and 33b', each of which is connected to the end of the respective first wall 33a and 33a' and is located towards the inside of the shell in a direction roughly parallel to the lateral surface of the shell itself; these two walls are therefore substantially parallel to each other.
  • Each of the recesses 3a and 3a' furthermore comprises a third wall, respectively 33c and 33c', which is connected to the end of the second wall and is located roughly parallel to the respective first wall; each of the third walls is turned towards the outer wall of the respective end of the shell and, for reasons which will be better clarified below, terminates at a distance from this outer wall of the shell which is greater than the diameter of the vertical end wires of the panel.
  • the first shell may be obtained in any way whatsoever; a very quick and easy way is to bend a sheet along the areas of contact between the vertical walls which form the lateral surface of the shell and the walls of the recesses at the terminal ends of the shell itself in such a way as to obtain a profiled shape which as a result is open in the area between the two second walls 33b and 33b'.
  • openings are formed, respectively 2a and 2a', which are located in a direction transverse to the ends and which are spaced apart from each other, in a longitudinal direction, by the same distance as there is between the horizontal wires of the panel.
  • the openings are formed by cutting all the walls at the ends of the shell, obviously in the area where it is desired to make the opening, and at least part of the lateral end wall of the shell itself; the dimensions of each opening, in particular its width in a longitudinal direction, are such as to allow a horizontal wire on the panel to pass through.
  • the second shell too, has a lateral surface which, excluding the end walls which will be discussed below, has a section in the form of half a regular octagon.
  • Each of the recesses 4a' and 4b' is formed by a first wall, respectively 44a and 44a', which is connected to the lateral wall of the shell and is located in a direction axial to the shell itself; in practice therefore the first walls 44a and 44a' are located perpendicularly to the lateral wall of the second shell, both run in the same direction, and are located facing each other.
  • Each of the recesses 4a and 4a' also comprises a second wall, respectively 44b and 44b', each of which is connected to the end of the respective first wall 44a and 44a' and is located towards the outside of the shell in a direction roughly parallel to the lateral surface of the shell itself; these two walls are therefore substantially parallel to each other.
  • Each of the recesses 4a and 4a' furthermore comprises a third wall, respectively 44c and 44c', which is connected to the end of the second wall and is located roughly parallel to the respective first wall; each of the third walls is turned towards the outer wall of the respective end of the shell.
  • the second shell similarly to the first, can be obtained by bending a sheet along the areas of contact between its various vertical walls.
  • the distance between the ends of the third walls 44c and 44c' of the second shell is greater than the distance between the second walls 33b and 33b' of the first shell, i.e. than the width of the opening between these two walls, but is greater than this distance by an amount less than the elastic deformation, in a radial direction, of the second shell.
  • the first and second shells of the post are connected to each other along a vertical diametral plane; for this purpose the two shells which constitute the post have ends which are a sort of guide, internal to the first shell and external to the second shell, and are coupled together by inserting the ends of the first shell into the ends of the second shell, to connect the two shells together.
  • the first and second shells When the first and second shells are connected together, they constitute a tubular post with closed lateral surface which, given the shape of the two shells and the fact that the ends inserted into each other are inside the post, has a regular octagonal external section.
  • the shells of the posts with the section of their lateral surface different from the half octagon described; the shells can in fact have a lateral surface section that is semicircular, half a square, rectangular, hexagonal, or other shapes of section.
  • the top of the post can be closed with a cap, not illustrated in the figures, an item however which is common for hollow posts exposed to atmospheric agents; in order to avoid any water entering through holes 2a and 2a' from collecting inside the post, a through aperture can conveniently be provided at the lower end of the post, not illustrated in the figure but formable in one of the two shells, to allow the exit of any water inside the post itself.
  • the first shell of a post is fixed to the ground, sinking it into the soil or fixing it to supports anchored to fixed structures, such as for example low concrete walls; if there are fragments of pre-existing posts, the structure of the shell can often allow the shell to be fixed to the pre-existing fragments, for example by bolts, welding or poured concrete as necessary.
  • One side of a panel is then connected to the shell, by inserting the horizontal wire into the apertures 2a (or 2a') at one end of the shell, and the last vertical wire is inserted into the recess at the end of the shell; this last operation can be carried out very simply by fitting the vertical wire into the space between the third wall of the recess and the outer wall of the shell, a space which as we have said is larger than the diameter of the vertical wires at the end of the panel.
  • the panel In the case of rectilinear portions of fence, the panel will be left running in a direction radial to the shell; in other cases it is rotated to the desired angle.
  • the panel is self-supporting and does not need a person or any equipment to remain in position; this allows the erection of the fence by a single person without any special equipment.
  • a further first shell is then connected to the other side of the panel, which is still free; this operation is performed in the same way as described above.
  • the further first shell is then pulled, so as to put the panel under tension, and is subsequently fixed to the ground.
  • the panel is definitively connected to the two first shells and can no longer be removed, except obviously if it is cut or a shell uprooted, since the vertical wires inserted into the recesses in the shells cannot come out of them.
  • One advantage of the posts described is that they allow the second shells to be re-used, even in the event that the fence is modified or some of the first shells are replaced.
