Unless otherwise specified, for convenience, the present application defines directions such as front-back, up-down, left-right, and vertical-horizontal based on the direction of the fence shown in FIG. That is, in FIG. 1, the front surface of the fence appears. The duplicate description may be omitted as appropriate, and the same member may be given the same reference numeral. FIG. 1 schematically shows the front surface of the fence 10 according to the embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1, the fence 10 includes columns 12, 14, horizontal plates 16, 18, 20 and a cover member 22. The horizontal plate on the second or lower stage from the top of the fence 10 and the fixing means thereof are the same as the horizontal plate on the uppermost stage of the fence 10 and the fixing means thereof.

FIG. 2 shows the support 12 of the fence 10 without the horizontal plates 16, 18, 20 and the cover member 22, and the periphery thereof enlarged from the right side. FIG. 3 shows the state of FIG. 2 enlarged from the front. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the fence 10 includes a horizontal plate attachment 24. The lower portions of the columns 12 and 14 are buried at the installation location of the fence 10 by a concrete foundation or the like. The columns 12 and 14 of the embodiment are made of metal and have a hollow square column shape having a square bottom surface. For example, resin column caps 12a and 14a are attached to the upper ends of the columns 12 and 14, respectively. The quantity, material, size, shape, etc. of the columns 12 and 14 are not particularly limited.

The horizontal plates 16, 18 and 20 of the embodiment are rectangular plate-shaped members made of resin. The materials, sizes, shapes, and the like of the horizontal plates 16, 18, and 20 are not particularly limited as long as they can be attached to the horizontal plate attachment 24. Further, if there are a plurality of horizontal plates 16, the quantity of the horizontal plates 16, 18 and 20 is not particularly limited. The horizontal plate attachment 24 is a member for attaching the horizontal plates 16, 18 and 20 to the columns 12 and 14. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the horizontal plate mounting tool 24 is provided with five screw holes 28, and two of the screw holes 28 are used to be fixed to the front surface of the support column 12 by screws 26. There is. As long as the horizontal plate mounting tool 24 can be fixed to the front surface of the support column 12, the quantity and position of the screw holes 28 and the quantity and use position of the screws 26 are not particularly limited.

Further, there is no particular limitation on the means for fixing the horizontal plate attachment 24 to the support column 12. The horizontal plate attachment 24 is also fixed to the support column 14 (not shown). FIG. 4 schematically shows an operation when the horizontal plate 16 is attached to the horizontal plate attachment 24, that is, when the horizontal plate 16 is attached. The horizontal plate attachment 24 includes an upper member 24U, a lower member 24D, and a back member 24B. As shown in FIG. 4, the upper member 24U holds the upper surface and the upper front surface of the horizontal plate 16. The lower member 24D holds the lower surface and the lower front surface of the horizontal plate 16.

The upper part of the front surface of the horizontal plate 16 is the upper part of the front surface of the horizontal plate 16 and is, for example, a part or more of a region of 1/20 to 1/10 of the length of the front surface in the vertical direction. The lower part of the front surface of the horizontal plate 16 is the lower part of the front surface of the horizontal plate 16 and is, for example, a part or more of a region of 1/10 to 1/8 of the length of the front surface in the vertical direction. The back member 24 connects the upper member 24U and the lower member 24D behind the horizontal plate. The horizontal plate attachment 24 of the embodiment is manufactured by bending a metal plate. That is, the upper member 24U, the lower member 24D, and the back member 24B are integrally formed and can be elastically deformed.

The horizontal plate 16 is attached to the horizontal plate fixture 24 as follows. As shown in the upper part of FIG. 4, first, the lower portion of the horizontal plate 16 is inserted into the "U" -shaped gap formed by the lower member 24D and the back member 24B. Next, the upper member 24U is elastically deformed upward, and the upper portion of the horizontal plate 16 is pushed into the "U" -shaped gap formed by the upper member 24U and the back member 24B. For the upward elastic deformation of the upper member 24U, the upper member 24U may be lifted by hand or a tool, or the upper part of the horizontal plate 16 is moved backward while the lower end of the upper member 24U and the upper end of the horizontal plate 16 are in contact with each other. The upper member 24U may be lifted by pushing to

When the upper part of the horizontal plate 16 moves backward and approaches the back member 24B and the upper part of the horizontal plate 16 passes through the lower end of the upper member 24U, the elastic deformation of the upper member 24U in the upward direction is released and the upper member 24U is restored downward. Will be done. In this way, as shown in the lower figure of FIG. 4, the horizontal plate 16 is sandwiched between the upper member 24U and the lower member 24D, and is mounted on the horizontal plate attachment 24. As shown in the lower part of FIG. 4, the height 24UH of the portion of the upper member 24U holding the horizontal plate 16 that holds the upper front surface of the horizontal plate 16 is lateral to the lower member 24D that holds the horizontal plate 16. The height of the portion holding the lower front portion of the plate 16 is smaller than 24 DH. The height 24 UH of the portion holding the upper front surface of the horizontal plate 16 is preferably 1/2 or less of the height 24 DH of the portion holding the lower front surface of the horizontal plate 16. This is because the horizontal plate 16 can be easily attached to the horizontal plate attachment 24 by utilizing the elastic deformation of the upper member 24U, and the horizontal plate 16 once attached is hard to come off from the horizontal plate attachment 24.

Further, when the upper member 24U is made of metal as in the horizontal plate attachment 24 of the embodiment, the height 24UH of the portion holding the upper front surface of the horizontal plate 16 is the thickness of the portion holding the upper portion of the horizontal plate 16. It is preferably 3 to 5 times that of 24UD. This is because if the height 24UH is 5 times or less the thickness 24UD, the elastic deformation of the upper member 24U in the vertical direction is within an appropriate range, and the upper portion of the horizontal plate 16 can be easily moved to the vicinity of the back member 24B. Further, if the height 24UH is three times or more the thickness 24UD, the upper member 24U can be manufactured by bending the metal plate.

FIG. 5 shows a state in which the right end portion of the horizontal plate 16 and the left end portion of the horizontal plate 18 are mounted on the horizontal plate attachment 24, enlarged from the front. As shown in FIG. 5, in the fence 10 of the embodiment, the right end of one horizontal plate, for example, the right end 16R of the horizontal plate 16, and the left end of the other horizontal plate, for example, the left end 18L of the horizontal plate 18, are. It is attached to the horizontal plate attachment 24 so as to form a gap G. The horizontal plate attachment 24 is provided with a mark for setting the gap G.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, in the horizontal plate attachment 24 of the embodiment, two lines 24M and 24N parallel to each other in the vertical direction are provided on the front surface of the lower member 24D. The right end 16R of the horizontal plate 16 and the left end 18L of the horizontal plate 18 are arranged corresponding to the marks, that is, along the lines 24M and 24N. Since there is a gap G, even if the horizontal plates 16 and 18 thermally expand, the horizontal plates 16 and 18 do not press against each other, and damage to the fence 10 due to the thermal expansion of the horizontal plates 16 and 18 can be prevented. That is, the length of the gap G is set so that the horizontal plates 16 and 18 do not come into contact with each other even if the horizontal plates 16 and 18 thermally expand. Further, the horizontal plates 16 and 18 can be easily installed along the lines 24M and 24N.

The length of the gap G may be determined according to the material or shape of the horizontal plates 16 and 18, or the environment in which the fence 10 is installed. Further, the lines 24M and 24N may be provided by linearly pressing or scraping the front surface of the lower member 24D, or may be provided by drawing on the front surface of the lower member 24D. Further, a mark may be provided on a portion other than the lower member 24D of the horizontal plate attachment 24. Further, the mark is not limited to a line, but may be a point, a mark, a hole, a notch in the lower member 24D, or the like.

FIG. 7 shows a state in which the cover member 22 is mounted near the boundary between the horizontal plates 16 and 18 shown in FIG. 5 in an enlarged manner from the front. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 7, the cover member 22 covers the horizontal plate attachment 24 from the front. More specifically, the claw 22a is the upper surface and the upper back surface of the horizontal plate 16, the claw 22b is the upper surface and the upper back surface of the horizontal plate 18, the claw 22c is the lower surface and the lower back surface of the horizontal plate 16, and the claw 22d is the horizontal plate. The cover member 22 is attached to the horizontal plates 16 and 18 from the front so as to hold the lower surface of the 18 and the lower portion of the back surface, respectively.

The cover member 22 functions as a decorative member that covers and hides the gap G between the horizontal plates 16 and 18 and the horizontal plate attachment 24. In the embodiment, the cover member 22 is manufactured by bending a metal plate. Therefore, the cover member 22 can be attached to the horizontal plates 16 and 18 by utilizing the elastic deformation of the claws 22a, 22b, 22c and 22d. The material, shape, color, size, quantity, and the like of the cover member 22 are not particularly limited as long as the horizontal plate attachment 24 is covered from the front. Further, in the embodiment, the cover member 22 is attached to the horizontal plates 16 and 18, but the cover member 22 may be attached to the horizontal plate attachment 24, or the horizontal plates 16 and 18 and the horizontal plate attachment. It may be worn over 24.

FIG. 8 shows the fence column 12, the horizontal plate attachment 34, and the periphery thereof of the fence of another embodiment without the cover member enlarged from the right side. The horizontal plate 16 is attached to the support column 12 by the horizontal plate attachment 34 so as to be oblique to the vertical direction. The horizontal plate attachment 34 has substantially the same structure as the horizontal plate attachment 24, except that the horizontal plate 16 is mounted in an oblique direction. In the horizontal plate attachment 34, the height 34UH of the upper member 34 of the portion holding the upper front surface of the horizontal plate 16 and the height 34DH of the lower member 34D of the portion holding the lower front surface of the horizontal plate 16 are vertical. It refers to the length in the direction along the front surface of the horizontal plate 16 rather than the direction.
