Abstract

The railing post cap is for a post with two angled main panels (2,3) having inwardly turned flanges (4,5) along their edges. The cap is formed from a single metal sheet (8) shaped to follow the cross section of the post. The cap has folded tongues and edge flanges which interlock with the post to prevent levering of the post or cap.

Description

L'invention concerne un chapeau en tôle pour poteau de clôture à encoches. The invention relates to a sheet metal cap for a notched fence post.

Un poteau de ce type est par exemple représenté dans le brevet français 2 728 610 de la demanderesse. A post of this type is for example shown in French patent 2,728,610 of the applicant.

C'est un poteau profilé à section transversale sensiblement triangulaire avec deux ailes principales formant entre-elles un angle déterminé et prolongées par des lèvres repliées l'une vers l'autre. Des fentes ou encoches prévues dans les lèvres servent à introduire et maintenir des panneaux de clôture en treillis rigide, et un ensemble de cales sert au verrouillage desdits panneaux. It is a profiled post with a substantially triangular cross section with two main wings forming between them a determined angle and extended by lips folded towards one another. Slots or notches provided in the lips are used to introduce and maintain rigid lattice fence panels, and a set of shims is used to lock said panels.

De façon classique, on prévoit dans un but de protection d'obturer l'extrémité supérieur du poteau par un chapeau en matière plastique ou en acier. Conventionally, provision is made for the purpose of protection to close the upper end of the post with a plastic or steel cap.

La demanderesse s'est fixée pour objectif d'ajouter au dispositif un ensemble de moyens de sécurité apte à empcher des tentatives d'effraction par enlèvement des cales de verrouillage. The applicant has set itself the objective of adding to the device a set of security means capable of preventing attempted break-ins by removing the locking wedges.

Pour ce faire, elle a eu l'idée de prévoir cet ensemble de moyens de sécurité sur le chapeau lui-mme. To do this, she had the idea of providing this set of safety means on the hat itself.

L'invention consiste en un chapeau en tôle pour poteau de clôture profilé comportant deux ailes principales formant entre elles un angle déterminé et prolongées par des lèvres repliées l'une vers l'autre, caractérisé en ce qu'il est formé par pliage d'une pièce de tôle avec une surface centrale dont la forme est propre à couvrir l'extrémité supérieure du poteau et en ce qu'il comporte un moyen de sécurité apte à empcher des tentatives d'écartement des lèvres ou des ailes. The invention consists of a sheet metal cap for a profiled fence post comprising two main wings forming between them a determined angle and extended by lips folded towards one another, characterized in that it is formed by folding a sheet metal part with a central surface whose shape is suitable for covering the upper end of the post and in that it comprises a safety means capable of preventing attempts to separate the lips or the wings.

On comprendra mieux l'invention à l'aide de la description qui suit faite en référence aux figures annexées suivantes :
. Figure 1 schéma montrant l'introduction d'un chapeau selon l'invention
sur un poteau de clôture à encoches,
Figure 2 : schema montrant le chapeau de la figure précédente encliqueté
sur le poteau à encoches,
Figure 3 : vue de détail de la pièce de tôle qui formera le chapeau après
pliage,

perpendiculaire à l'axe du poteau,
Figure 5 : vue de détail, au niveau d'un premier mode d'encliquetage,
selon un plan parallèle à l'axe du poteau.The invention will be better understood using the following description made with reference to the following appended figures:
. Figure 1 diagram showing the introduction of a hat according to the invention
on a fence post with notches,
Figure 2: diagram showing the hat of the previous figure snapped in
on the post with notches,
Figure 3: detail view of the sheet metal part that will form the cap after
folding,
Figure 4: sectional view of the cap-post assembly according to a plan
perpendicular to the axis of the post,
FIG. 5: detail view, at the level of a first latching mode,
along a plane parallel to the axis of the post.

Les figures 1,2 et 3 montrent à titre d'exemple non limitatif un poteau (1) à encoches comportant deux ailes principales (2,3) formant entre-elles un angle déterminé ai et prolongées par des lèvres (4,5) repliées l'une vers l'autre selon un angle a2 par rapport aux ailes principales (2,3). Figures 1,2 and 3 show by way of nonlimiting example a post (1) with notches comprising two main wings (2,3) forming between them a determined angle ai and extended by lips (4,5) folded towards each other at an angle a2 with respect to the main wings (2,3).

Les panneaux en treillis rigide (6,7) sont verrouillés dans des encoches (17) du poteau par des cales (18) introduites à l'intérieur du poteau par exemple au moyen d'une pince comme cela est décrit dans le brevet 2 728 610 précité. The rigid lattice panels (6,7) are locked in notches (17) of the post by shims (18) introduced inside the post for example by means of a clamp as described in patent 2,728 610 cited above.

Selon l'invention, des moyens de sécurité sont prévus sur le chapeau (1) pour empcher toute tentative d'écartement des lèvres (4,5) et/ou des ailes (2,3), et par là l'enlèvement des cales de verrouillage. According to the invention, safety means are provided on the cap (1) to prevent any attempt to separate the lips (4,5) and / or the wings (2,3), and thereby the removal of the wedges. lock.

Selon un premier mode de réalisation représenté sur les figures 1 à 5, un chapeau selon l'invention est formé par pliage d'une pièce de tôle dont le développé est représenté en figure 3. Il comporte une surface centrale (8) dont la forme est propre à couvrir l'extrémité supérieure du poteau (1) qui dans l'exemple représenté est sensiblement triangulaire. According to a first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, a cap according to the invention is formed by folding a sheet metal part, the projection of which is shown in FIG. 3. It has a central surface (8) whose shape is suitable for covering the upper end of the post (1) which in the example shown is substantially triangular.

Pour empcher l'écartement des lèvres, la face centrale (8) est prolongée par deux languettes pliées à 90 et venant se positionner contre les lèvres (4,5) et à l'extérieur de celles-ci lorsque le chapeau est en place. To prevent the spacing of the lips, the central face (8) is extended by two tongues bent at 90 and coming to be positioned against the lips (4,5) and outside of these when the cap is in place.

Pour empcher l'écartement des ailes (2,3), la face centrale (8) est prolongée latéralement et de chaque côté par deux plis (11,12) pliés à 90 et venant se positionner contre les ailes (2,3) et à l'extérieur de celles-ci. To prevent the spacing of the wings (2,3), the central face (8) is extended laterally and on each side by two folds (11,12) folded at 90 and coming to be positioned against the wings (2,3) and outside of them.

Le chapeau est maintenu sur le poteau par un moyen d'encliquetage. The cap is held on the post by a latching means.

Sur les figures, le moyen d'encliquetage donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif est composé de deux bossages (13, 14) prévus chacun sur un pli du chapeau et coopérant avec deux trous (15,16) du poteau. In the figures, the latching means given by way of nonlimiting example is composed of two bosses (13, 14) each provided on a fold of the cap and cooperating with two holes (15, 16) of the post.

Afin d'améliorer encore la sécurité, on peut remplacer les bossages par deux lames formant cliquets, qui, après leur introduction dans le poteau, interdisent l'enlèvement du chapeau.  In order to further improve safety, the bosses can be replaced by two blades forming pawls, which, after their introduction into the post, prohibit the removal of the cap.
