- Continuous wire welders and jig welders are used to perform the welding. To prevent the panels from warping, tension is placed on the wires during the welding process. The ends of the panels are typically finished with a cross wire welded across the face of the horizontal like wires.
- welded mesh fences present problems. For example, in a typical installation, the fence posts are installed about 8 feet apart, but the spacing may be very irregular. Likewise, in some applications, or a welded mesh fence may need to be installed on pre-existing chain link posts. Since chain link does not require highly regular spacing, it can be stretched to accommodate significant irregularities. In welded mesh fencing, however, stretching the width of the panel is not possible Further, the hardware typically used to join panels leaves nuts or other parts that are vulnerable to attack on the outside of the fence, reducing the security of the fence. Therefore, there is a need for a wire-mesh fence and a wire-mesh fence panel that gives flexibility in installation with irregularly-spaced posts. There is a separate need for a joining of wire-mesh fence panels that reduces the amount of connection component material that is easily attacked on the outside of the fence.

Description
- This application is a continuation-in-part application of Ser. No. 14/204,318, filed Mar. 11, 2014, which is a continuation application of Ser. No. 13/958,128, filed Aug. 2, 2013, which is a continuation application of Ser. No. 13/683,780, filed on Nov. 21, 2012 and based on U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/881,810, filed Sep. 14, 2010, which claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/242,239 filed Sep. 14, 2009, for “Wire-Mesh Security Fence and Fence Panel.”
- In the field of security fences, “cut resistance” and “climb resistance” has led to the use of welded mesh fence. Such fences are made by arranging multiple horizontal lines of wire—spaced apart a small distance—and welding vertical cross wires to the horizontal lines. The result is a mesh. Typical mesh used in security fences is so called “3-5-8” (meaning that the horizontal lines are about 3 inches apart, the cross wires are 0.5 inches, and the wire is 8 gauge). Other dimensions and mesh patterns are known or will occur to those of skill in the art. The wires are welded into a mesh on a variety of welding systems (for example, automatic resistance-mesh welders, such as those available from Entwicklungs- and Verwertungs-Gesellschaft m.b.H. (a.k.a. “EVG”) and Clifford/Ideal Welding Systems). Continuous wire welders and jig welders are used to perform the welding. To prevent the panels from warping, tension is placed on the wires during the welding process. The ends of the panels are typically finished with a cross wire welded across the face of the horizontal like wires.
- In practice, welded mesh fences present problems. For example, in a typical installation, the fence posts are installed about 8 feet apart, but the spacing may be very irregular. Likewise, in some applications, or a welded mesh fence may need to be installed on pre-existing chain link posts. Since chain link does not require highly regular spacing, it can be stretched to accommodate significant irregularities. In welded mesh fencing, however, stretching the width of the panel is not possible Further, the hardware typically used to join panels leaves nuts or other parts that are vulnerable to attack on the outside of the fence, reducing the security of the fence. Therefore, there is a need for a wire-mesh fence and a wire-mesh fence panel that gives flexibility in installation with irregularly-spaced posts. There is a separate need for a joining of wire-mesh fence panels that reduces the amount of connection component material that is easily attacked on the outside of the fence.
- In at least one example of the invention, a welded wire-mesh fence panel is provided that includes: a first set of substantially parallel wires, each wire having a first and a second end; a second set of substantially parallel wires, the second set of wires being welded across the first set on one picket-wire side of the first set; a cross-wire-side connection strip welded across the first end of the first set on the picket-wire side of the first set; and an opposite side connection strip welded across the second end of the first set on the opposite side of the picket-wire side. In one such example each connection strip has an outside edge and each outside edge is equally spaced from the end of the wires to which the strip is welded.
- In a further example of the invention, a wire-mesh fence is provided that includes: at least two wire-mesh panels. The picket-wire side connection strip of the first panel is connected to the opposite-side connection strip of the second panel, and the first end of the wires of the first set of a first of the panels substantially facing the second end of the wires of a second panel. In at least one such example, a bolt is provided (for example, square shaped and having two ends). Each end is inserted through a hole in a connection strip of the first panel and a hold in a connection strip of the second panel. In some examples, each bolt end is threaded and a nut is applied on each threaded end. In some examples, the holes comprise slots. In still further examples, fence posts are connected at the connection strips. In another example, the holes in the connection strip are threaded to accept fasteners passing through holes in the adjoining connection strip. Still further examples as seen in the attached drawings and detailed description.
- In another example of the invention a wire-mesh fence panel comprises a first set of substantially parallel wires, each wire having a first, a second end, a picket-wire side, and a cross-wire side, a second set of substantially parallel wires, the second set of wires being welded across the first set on the picket-wire side, a picket-wire side connection strip welded across the first end of the first set on the picket-wire side, and a cross-wire side connection strip welded across the second end of the first set on the cross-wire side, wherein the picket-wire side connection strip includes at least one opening and the cross-wire side connection strip includes at least one opening, wherein each picket-wire side connection strip opening has a corresponding cross-wire side connection strip opening.
- In a variation of the examples, each connection strip has an outside edge and each outside edge is equally spaced from the end of the wires to which the strip is welded. Another variation may include the at least one picket-wire side connection strip opening is a through slot, the at least one cross-wire side connection strip opening is a through hole, and at least one fastener located through the at least one through slot and the at least one through hole. The invention may include at least one fastener being a U-shaped bolt positioned such that the ends of the U-shaped bolt are secured to the cross-wire-side connection strip.
- Another example of the invention includes a wire-mesh fence comprising at least a first panel and a second panel, each panel comprising a first set of substantially parallel wires, each wire having a first and a second end, a picket-wire side, a cross-wire side, a second set of substantially parallel wires, the second set of wires being welded across the first set on the picket-wire side of the first set, a picket-wire side connection strip welded across the first end of the first set on the picket-wire side of the first set, and a cross-wire side connection strip welded across the second end of the first set on the cross-wire side of the first set, the picket-wire side connection strip of the first panel being connected to the cross-wire side connection strip of the second panel, and the first set of substantially parallel wires of the first panel being substantially aligned with the first set of substantially parallel wires of the second panel.
- A further modification to the embodiments disclosed may include one or more bolts having two ends, each end being inserted through one or more holes in the picket-wire side connection strip of the first panel and one or more holes in the cross-wire side connection strip of the second panel. Each bolt end is threaded and further comprising a nut on each threaded end. Furthermore, posts may be connected to the connection strips. The hole in at least one connection strip may be slotted. Another addition may include the cross-wire-side connection strip having at least one through slot and the picket-wire side connection strip comprising at least one through hole, wherein each picket-wire-side connection strip slot has a hole that is aligned with a corresponding cross-wire-side connection strip slot. The invention may further include at least one fastener located through the at least one through slot and the at least one through hole.

FIG. 1 an example of a wire-mesh fence panel 100 is seen comprising substantially parallel rail-wires 102, each having afirst end 102 a and asecond end 102 b. Substantiallyparallel cross-wires 104 are welded across rail-wires 102 at substantially regular intervals. At each end of thepanel 100 a connection strip is welded across the ends of thewires 102. As seen in detail inFIGS. 1A-1D , picket-wire-side connection strip 106 is welded on the picket-wire side 108 ofpanel 100, and opposite-side connection strip 110 is welded across the ends of thewires 102 on the side opposite the picket-wire side 108 ofpanel 100 - Referring now to the example of
FIG. 2 , eachconnection strip outside edge 112 that is spaced from the end of the wires to which the strip is welded. As the twopanels FIG. 3 , this allows a “butt-connection” between the wires of twopanels - Referring again to
FIG. 2 , slot-holes 116 are provided in each connection strip and are positioned to overlap with the slot-holes of another panel when assembled. Such slots allow for irregular spacing of posts to be accommodated. - Referring again to
FIG. 3 , in at least one example of the invention, aU-shaped bolt 204 is inserted from the side opposite the picket-wire-side ofpanels FIG. 3 ), andnuts 210 are applied to the threaded ends ofbolt 204. Therefore, it is possible to build an entire fence on which no nuts or cross-wires are available on one side of the fence. Having the cross-wires inaccessible to the outside increases the security of the fence. When used as the outside of whatever location is to be protected, this increases security; the back of a U-shaped bolt is more difficult to attack than a nut. Other methods of joining panels will occur to those of skill in the art without departing from the invention. - As illustrated in
FIG. 4 , in some examples, the overlapping connection strips are attached by bolts 400 (e.g., secure bolts who's heads shear after installation) to threadedposts 300 that have been previously set in the ground. In other examples, the spacing between posts is too irregular and cannot be attached at the connection strips (seeFIG. 5 ). However due to the overlapping connection strips being welded to the ends of the wires, the assembled panels present a uniform barrier that can be attached to irregularly spaced posts with hardware that will occur to those of skill in the art. For example, the following types of connectors are useful to mount joined panels to posts: standard threaded fasteners, threaded tamper proof fasteners, welded studs, rivets, self tapping standard and tamper proof fasteners, direct welding, etc. Referring now toFIG. 6 , still another example is seen in which joinedpanels bolts 606 that are threaded intoblock 605. The assembled panels are fastened to roundposts 615 byclamp member 607 which is secured to block 605 by bolts 609 (held in place bynuts 610 and heads 611.) - In some embodiments, the connection strips 106 and 110 are welded during manufacturing, to the picket-wires of a wire-mesh welding processed panel; in further examples, strips 106 and 110 are welded to the so-called “rail-wires”. In still a further example, strips are welded to more than two sides (e.g. four), allowing panels to be joined in two dimensions. Thus higher fences are enabled from multiple panels of one height.
- The materials and sizes of the mesh are known to those of ordinary skill in the field; however, the following have been found to be particularly useful and are preferred:
- 12 gage (0.120 inch diameter) through 4 gage (0.225 inch diameter) wire welded into a 3″×0.5″ mesh.
- 12 gage (0.120 inch diameter) through 4 gage (0.225 inch diameter) wire welded into a 2″×2″ mesh.
- 12 gage (0.120 inch diameter) through 4 gage (0.225 inch diameter) wire welded into a 2″×6″ mesh
- 12 gage (0.120 inch diameter) through 4 gage (0.225 inch diameter)wire welded into 1″×1″ mesh
- Other dimensions and even more irregular spacing of wires may be used without departing from the invention.
- As illustrated in
FIG. 7 , in some examples, the overlapping connection strips 702 are attached bybolts 701 to corresponding threaded strips 703. The assembled panels allow for a uniform barrier that can be attached to irregularly spaced posts with hardware that will occur to those of skill in the art. For example, the following types of connectors are useful to join the connection strips 702 to the threaded strips 703: standard threaded fasteners, threaded tamper proof fasteners, welded studs, rivets, self-tapping standard and tamper proof fasteners, direct welding, etc. In this example theconnection strip 702 has aslot 704 and the corresponding threadedstrip 703 has a throughhole 705. - The above description is given by way of example only. Other examples of the invention will occur to those reading the current document that are within the scope of the invention—whose scope is not intended to be limited by any statement or specific example given above. The scope of the patent is intended to be defined only by the claims which follow.
