Patented Mar. 27, 1951 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
PROPERTY LINE FENCE CONSTRUCTION Herman Buchholz, Long Beach, Calif.
Application October 5, 1948, Serial No. 52,874
Claims. I
This invention relates to a fence construction, particularly for the property lines of a residence, and the prime object of my invention is to provide a novel fence construction including units which are assembled on horizontal rails to provide the complete fence.
Another object is to provide a fence of the picket type in which the space between the pickets is obstructed so that a passerby cannot see through the fence, however, the fence is so constructed that free circulation of air is permitted therethrough.
A feature of my invention is to provide a fence construction of the character stated, which is adaptable to a metal construction, however, the fence may or may not be entirely of metal in that other materials may be used if desired.
Another object of my invention is to provide a novel fence construction in which the bafile plates are provided, these bafile plates being spaced from the vertical pickets of the fence, and the baffies may be adjusted to deflect a current of air passing through the fence.
Still another feature of my invention is to provide a novel means of assembling the pickets and the baffles on the horizontal lines of the fence.
Other objects, advantages and features of invention may appear from the accompanying drawing, the subjoined detailed description and the appended claims.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of a fence embodying my construction.
Figure 2 is a rear elevation of the same.
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is an enlarged sectional view taken on line 4-4 of Figure 2.
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on line 55 of Figure 4.
Figure 6 is an enlarged horizontal sectional view similar to Figure 4, but showing a modified method of mounting the baflle.
Figure '7 is a fragmentary sectional view taken on line 1-1 of Figure 6.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, the numeral l, indicates a post which is embedded in the ground in a usual and well known manner. This post may be metal, wood, concrete, brick, or the like, as desired. A plurality of rails 2, a e secured in adjacent posts I, and these rails are spaced vertically. The rails 2, are preferably formed of pipe, but other shapes may be used if desired. The rails 2, are fixedly secured in the posts I, and if these posts are formed Of metal,
the rails are preferably welded thereto.
A plurality of pickets 3, are arranged vertically and are spaced apart a suitable distance to conform with the desired ornamental appearance. The pickets 3, are preferably formed of metal and may be stamped or cut or molded in a particular ornamental pattern to suit the fancy of the builder. However, plain or ornamented wooden pickets may be used as will be evident from the subsequent description.
In a picket type fence, these pickets are always spaced apart, thus providing a more pleasing appearance. Since the pickets are spaced, it is possible for a passerby to look through the fence. To give greater privacy to the enclosed area, I provide a plurality of vertical bafile strips 4, which, are also mounted on the rails 2, in a manner to be subsequently described.
The baffle plates or strips 4, are spaced rearwardly of the pickets 3, but extend across the openings 5, between the pickets. The pickets 3, and the baffles 4, are assembled on the rails 2, in the following manner: if the pickets andthe baffles 4, are formed of metal, I prefer that the pickets 3 shall be assembled in units, for example, one, two, three, etc. As here shown, the units all consisting of two pickets. The pickets 3, are fixedly attached to, or may be an integral part of a saddle 6. There is one saddle provided for each rail 2, and the saddle is provided with a recess 1, to fit the rail 2, substantially'as shown.
The baffles 6, are each provided with blades 8, which are also recessed as shown at 9, to fit the rails 2. A bolt it), extends through the ears H, of the saddle 6, and through the blades 8, thus assembling the saddle and the blades in position around the rails 2, and also securely holding the pickets and the baffle plates in position. It will thus be evident that a single bolt Ill, holds the pickets and the baflle plates on each of the rails 2. The bafiie plates are thus assembled in alignment with the spaces 5, between the pickets 3, however the baffles are spaced rearwardly of the pickets and consequently, air can circulate through the fence, and still a clear View is obstructed through the fence, thus providing greater spective saddle and blade by means of screws or bolts.
Having described my invention, I claim:
1. In a fence including spaced posts, a pair of horizontal rails extending between said posts and secured thereto, a plurality of spaced pickets mounted on one side of said rails, a saddle, means securing said saddle to adjacent pickets, said saddle engaging and fitting arail, a baffle plate between each adjacent pair of pickets, said baffie plate being positioned on the side of the rail opposite the pickets, a blade, means securing the blade to a bafiie plate, said blade engaging and fitting one of the rails, and means securing said blade and saddle together, whereby said pickets and baflie are secured to the rail.
2. In a fence including spaced posts, a pair of horizontal rails extending between said posts and secured thereto, a plurality of spaced pickets mounted on one side of said rails, a saddle, means securing said saddle to adjacent pickets, said saddle engaging and fitting a rail, a baifie plate between each adjacent pair of pickets, said baffle plate being positioned on the side of the rail opposite the pickets, a blade, means securing the blade to a baflle plate, said blade engaging and fitting one of the rails, and means securing said blade and saddle together, whereby said pickets and baffle are secured to the rail, said last named means including a bolt extending through said saddle and blade.
3. In a fence including spaced posts, a pair of horizontal rails extending between said posts and secured thereto, a plurality of spaced pickets mounted on one side of said rails, a saddle, means securing said saddle to adjacent pickets, said saddle engaging and fitting a rail, a baffle piate between each adjacent pair of pickets, said bafile plate being positioned on the side of the rail opposite the pickets, a blade, means pivotally securing the blade to a baffle plate, said blade engaging and fitting one of the rails, and means securing said blade and saddle together, whereby said pickets and baffle are secured to the rail.
Q. In a fence including spaced posts, a pair of horizontal rails extending between said posts and secured thereto, a plurality of spaced pickets mounted on one side of said rails, a saddle, means securing said saddle to adjacent pickets, said saddle engaging and fitting a rail, a bafiie plate between each adjacent pair of pickets, said baflie plate being positioned on the side of the rail opposite the pickets, a blade, means pivotally securing the blade to a baflie plate, said blade engaging and fitting one of the rails, and means securing said blade and saddle together, whereby said pickets and bafiie are secured to the rail, said last named means including a bolt extending through said saddle and blade.
5. A metal fence construction comprising spaced posts, a pair of horizontal rails extending between said posts and secured thereto, a plurality of metal pickets arranged on one side of said rails, said pickets being spaced horizontally, a saddle fixedly attached to each of said pickets, said saddle having a recess to receive said rail, a bafiie plate positioned between each pair of pickets and positioned on the side of the rails opposite the pickets, a blade fixedly mounted on each bafile plate, said blade having a recess therein to receive a rail and a bolt extending through said saddle and plate whereby the plate and bailie are assembled on said rails.
