Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fence panel made without any welding.
  • the present invention is more particularly intended to improve and simplify the assembly of fence panels of the type consisting of at least one upper cross member, a lower cross member and a plurality of bars, each of these bars being supported individually by the sleepers.
  • the present invention also relates to a fence equipped with at least one such panel.
  • the fence panels that generally result from the solder assembly of a plurality of individual members are typically large and heavy.
  • these fence panels are standardized in size, their height may be variable, to offer attractive prices. Also, the installation of the last fence panel may require an adjustment of its longitudinal dimension, the latter can not be placed in full.
  • the present invention aims to overcome these various drawbacks of the prior art by providing a fence panel, simple in its design and its operating mode, economical and can be assembled without any welding and on site, by a single unqualified person with a minimum of tools.
  • Another object of the present invention is a fence panel whose edges can be mounted between two posts on any type of terrain, including sloping terrain, and in different mounting configurations.
  • the openings of the stringers are therefore holes opening on either side of these smooth so as to ensure the passage of the elongated portion of the filling member through the corresponding opening.
  • the ends of some of these openings may not be placed exactly vis-à-vis taking into account, for example, the curved shape of the portion of the bar introduced into this opening.
  • a hole of a non-opening smooth at one of its ends is therefore a non-through hole, also called a blind hole.
  • Dissions of the end of the opening or hole greater than those of the orifice / clip assembly means that at least one of the dimensions of this end is greater than that corresponding to this set so as to allow the passage of this set by this end.
  • the rails are hollow over their entire length which facilitates their manufacture and lightens the panel.
  • the fence panel therefore results from an assembly of individual elements initially separated and can therefore be transported or stored easily because of the small size of these elements.
  • the panel filling element being a bar
  • a plurality of bars can be stored or transported in a bundle.
  • Such a fence panel can then be transported unassembled in a light vehicle and allows the mixing of individual elements made of different materials and / or different shapes and / or colors.
  • the fence panel of the present invention still allows mounting on a low wall.
  • each end of each of these openings receives a connecting piece so as to prevent withdrawal of the orifice / clip assembly from above or from the bottom of the rail.
  • While one end of these openings has at least one of its dimensions greater than those of the orifice / clip assembly, the other end of these openings is, for example, of dimensions equal to or substantially equal to those of the bar.
  • the bar has a straight cross section whose shape is chosen from the group comprising round, ovoid, oval, square, rectangular, rhombus, ...
  • the present invention also relates to a fence comprising posts between which fence panels extend, each of these posts having on at least one of its lateral faces a housing receiving the end of one of said panels.
  • At least one of said panels is a closing panel as described above.
  • said second part comprises a main body to which said lugs are connected, said main body comprising an orifice for the passage of the rod of a screw for fixing the workpiece to the post.
  • said rod comprises a thread on its external surface intended to cooperate with that of said orifice for the assembly of said clip and said orifice.
  • the Figure 1 schematically shows a perspective view of a fence portion comprising a fence panel according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the side edges of which are joined to posts.
  • This fence panel 10 constructed from a kit of initially distinct elements, comprises a lower cross member 11 and an upper cross member 12, which are hollow along their entire length.
  • crosspieces 11, 12 are interconnected by a plurality of bars 13 of rectangular cross section with rounded edges. The ends of these bars 13 pass through openings in each of these sleepers 11, 12.
  • the sleepers 11, 12 are here hollow metal sleepers such as steel or aluminum. Of course, these sleepers could be made of any other material suitable for making fence.
  • the longitudinal dimension of the crosspieces 11, 12 is determined to define a given separation distance between the two posts 14, 15.
  • the openings are evenly spaced so that it is possible to adjust the separation distance between them.
  • two posts 14, 15 by cutting the sleepers 11, 12 with a suitable tool such as a hacksaw.
  • the Figure 2 shows a detailed view by transparency of the seamless assembly between the bars 13 and the cross members 11, 12 of the fence panel.
  • the assembly of each of these crosspieces 11, 12 and bars 13 is made at a corresponding end of these bars 13 with however the end 16 of these bars protruding crosspieces 11, 12 to give an aesthetic appearance to the fence panel 10.
  • the parts of the bars 13 housed in the crosspieces 11, 12 hollow each comprise a transverse orifice and opening at its ends on the lateral edges of the bar 13, in which is placed a clip 17.
  • Each clip 17, which is here a portion of metal rod, passes through the corresponding orifice so that its ends are placed projecting on either side of the lateral edges of this bar 13.
  • the openings of the crosspieces 11, 12 are here identical to the manufacturing tolerances, the dimensions of these openings are greater firstly to the dimensions of the right cross section of the bars 13 and secondly, to the longitudinal dimension of the staples 17 received partly in the transverse orifices of these bars 13.
  • This arrangement allows the engagement of the bar 13 in any opening of the cross members 11, 12 and the introduction and positioning of the orifice / clip assembly within the cross member 11, 12 corresponding.
  • Each bar portion 13 provided with a staple 17 is thus received and housed in a corresponding crossbar 11, 12.
  • connecting pieces 18 ensure the fastening of the bars 13 and the crosspieces 11, 12 at the openings of the crosspieces 11, 12 so as to prevent the removal of the orifice / clip assemblies 17, and therefore bars 13, through these openings.
  • the hollow main body 19 more precisely comprises two wings placed facing one another in spaced apart, each wing coming to conform to the outer surface of the portion of the bar 13 housed in the crosspiece 11, 12 corresponding, said wings thus defining a housing in which at least a portion of the staple 17 is received.
  • these connecting pieces 18 have on their outer surface intended to come opposite the hollow inner wall of the corresponding cross member, reinforcement elements 21 to strengthen the assembly. mechanically between said connecting piece 18 and said opening.
  • These reinforcing elements 21 are for example ribs or clipping members.
  • each portion of the bar intended to be received in a cross member has more than one staple 17, for example one for each end of the opening.
  • each portion of bar 13 intended to be received in a cross member 11, 12 could comprise two transverse orifices spaced apart from each other, only one of these orifices being intended to receive a clip to block the removal of the assembly. orifice / clip either from the bottom or from the top of the opening.
  • the fence posts 14, 15 are notched posts. Each post 14, 15 has on its two opposite side faces, two rabbets 22 or symmetrical housings, identical and generally rectangular shape, being back to back.
  • each post 14, 15 can receive the side edge or slice of a panel 10, which then engages in the rabbet 22, or housing, corresponding.
  • Each rabbet 22 is delimited by a bottom and two flanks which are placed opposite. One of these flanks has notches 29.
  • the fence panel comprising several sleepers, the ends of some of these sleepers may be free, and therefore not secured to the posts 14, 15.
  • a fastener ensures the connection of each end of a cross member 11, 12 with the bottom of the rabbet of the pole 14, 15 corresponding.
  • Each of these lugs 25, 26 has a second coupling hole 27, these orifices 27 being placed opposite one another to define an axis of rotation.
  • the body of this second part of the fastener comprises a rounded end 28 intended to be introduced into a groove of the opposite side of the rebate 22 to that comprising the notches 29.
  • One of these notches 29 receives the other end 30 of the body of this second part of the fastener.
  • This other end 30 which is U-shaped with a flat bottom has dimensions ensuring its reception in the light defined by the corresponding notch 29.
  • This U-shaped end 30 is carried by the shorter leg 35 of the L, the latter being pressed against the side of the rabbet 22 when the end 30 is received in the corresponding notch 29.
  • This U-shaped end 30 thus defines a housing in which is received a nut 31 cooperating with the rod 32 of a fastener such as a screw, passing through the bottom of the rabbet of the post 14, 15 and the bottom of the U of the end 30 of the body of the second part in order to secure this second part at the bottom of the rabbet 22.
  • a fastener such as a screw
  • first and second parts of the fastener are assembled by an axis (not shown) passing through the first and second holes 27 for coupling these parts superposed with each other.
  • This axis is for example defined by a hollow tube portion.
  • a cover 33 and plugs 34 located at each end of these parts thus assembled hide the mechanical part of the fastener.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show the assembly of a fence panel as described above and a notched pole.
  • the elements represented in these figures bearing the same references as the elements shown on the Figures 1 to 4 represent the same objects, which will not be described again below.
  • this second portion 36 has moreover at its end opposite to that supporting the end 37, a flare 38 intended to be introduced into a groove of the opposite flank of the rebate 22 to the flank having the notches 29.
  • this opposite side had no groove but a step, this rounded end 38 of the second portion 36 would be replaced by a curved portion having a V-shaped cutout defining two points, or pins, intended to bear against the projection for securing the second portion 36 with said flank.
  • the main body of this second portion 36 further comprises two tabs 39, 40 directed towards the bottom of the rabbet of the post 15 when the second part 36 is in position in this post 15 and spaced apart from one another. distance equal to the distance separating the flanks facing this rabbet to be pressed against them.
  • tabs 39, 40 provide a minimum distance between the bottom of the rabbet and the remainder of the main body of the second part so that an axis passing through the first coupling orifices of the first part of the fastener is retained between the bottom of the rabbet and the main body of the second portion to provide the pivot connection between the pole 15 and the fence panel.
