Definitions

  • This invention obviates these disadvantages, by producing movable and folding barrier components forming barbed wire entanglements that can be transported at;
  • the movable and folding component forming a barbed wire entanglement for military and other purposes is characterised by the fact that it is made up of a certain number of cross-shaped components, lined up one behind the other and forming barrier components; these components comprise a hoop in the middle and are connected to each other, on the one hand, by barbed wires extending longitudinally and transversally through the entanglement, and on the other hand, diagonally, the latter wires connect two non-adjacent components of the framework.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the movable and folding barrier component.
  • Figure 2 is a corresponding longitudinal elevation on a smaller scale.
  • Figure 3 is a corresponding plan view on a smaller scale.
  • Figure 4 is an end elevation.
  • Figure 5 is a perspective view of a part of a movable barrier component showing an alternative scheme.
  • Figure 6 is a perspective View of part of another alternative.
  • Figure 7 is a perspective view of a barrier component holder.
  • Figure 8 is a partial elevation showing another form of fitting.
  • the barrier component consists of a framework 1 of sectional iron made up of components 2.
  • the latter comprise a hoop 3 on to which two V-shaped holders 4, 5 rounded at the base, are welded, these two holders being diametrically opposed with regard to the hoop 3.
  • the ends 4a, 4b, and 5a, 5b of the holders 4, 5 are cut so as to make points.
  • Barbed wires 6 join the four arms of the holders 4, 5 near to their end.
  • FIG. 1 For handy reference purposes, the various components shown in Figure 1 are marked A, B, C, D, E, F.
  • Four barbed wires 7 connect the components A, B, C, D, E, F to the four ends of the arms of the holders 4, 5 in the longitudinal direction of the barrier.
  • barbed wires 8, 9, 10 and 11 connect the ends 4a, 5a, 4b and 5b to the component A at the ends 5b, 4b, 5a and 4a of the component C.
  • the barbed wires 8, 9, 10 and 11 pass through the hoop 3 of the States arent Patented July 30, 1957 component placed between the two connected components.
  • the ends 4a, 5a, 4b and 5b of the component E are connected by wires to the four inside angles of the holders 4, 5 of the component F.
  • the wires y6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12, 13, 14, 15 are barbed wires and owing to their arrangement it is impossible to pass through the barrier component.
  • the Various components A, B, C, D can also be alternatively turned for 90 in either direction.
  • the lower ends of the arms of the holders 4, 5 are fixed in the ground and thus alford sound frontal and side stability to the assembly.
  • the frames 1 each comprise a hoop 3 with arched parts 15 arranged at 90 to each other on the hoop 3.
  • the arms or holders 4 forming legs are sharpened at their free ends to enable, on the one hand, the barrier component to be fixed in the ground, and on the other hand, to afford close-up protection to the barrier component.
  • a second hoop 16 is xed on the four legs to make each frame rigid.
  • Barbed wires 7 connect the free ends of the legs 4 of the frames A, B in a longitudinal direction, whereas other barbed wires 8 placed diagonally, connect two non-adjacent frames, so as to prevent the barrier component from being easily penetrated.
  • the wires 8 arranged diagonally pass through spaces provided between the inside hoop 3 and the outside hoop 16 of the frame placed between the two connected frames. Owing to this fact, the space restricted by the inside hoops 3 of the frames through the length of the barrier is free and the barrier component can thus be slipped on to a cylindrical holder 19 ( Figure 7) which is provided with a cam 20 along one of its generatives which is movable and makes an abutment. Moreover, this cam enables the barrier component to be unwound, frame by frame.
  • the barbed wires connecting the various frames to each other are folded without the risk of tangling, and barrier cornponents of appreciable length are obtained, which, when folded take up very little space, which facilitates their transport.
  • each frame 1 comprises an inside hoop 3 with arches 15 arranged at 90 to each other.
  • the inside hoop 3 of each frame is supported by four curved iron parts 21 iixed around the inside hoop 3 at 90 to each other, so as to form four cross-shaped arms, these arms being identical.
  • the frames 1 thus formed are connected as described above by barbed wires, the wires placed diagonally passing through the spaces restricted by the ends of the curved iron parts 21 so that the central inside space of the barrier component is free to enable the barrier component to be wound on a holder similar to that shown in Figure 7.
  • the ends of the curved iron parts 21 are cut in a point to enable the barrier com.-
  • the rinside hoops 3 may comprise any number' of arches 15, likewise the arms 4l can be distributed-'in any numberr around4 the inside ⁇ hoops.
  • a portable barrierstructureI for formingA a lbarbed ponents including a centrally disposed hoopl with arms f radiating! ⁇ therefrom, barbed wires connecting the-end portions of corresponding arms of said components, and
  • barbed wires connecting-the end portions of diametricallyl opposite arms of non-adjacent components and passing through the hoops of the intermediate components.
  • a portable barrier according to claim 2 including barbed wires extending between the endportions of the arms of each component.
  • Ay portable barrier according to claim l wherein the length of the wires connecting correspondingfarms of adjacent components are of a predetermined length to be stretched taut when said components are relatively rotated and collapsed together in registered relation.
  • a portable barrier according to claim 4 wherein the length of the Wires connecting kcorresponding arms .of
  • adjacent components is equal to the spacing between adjacentarms of each component whereby said barrier may be collapsed for transport with said components in alignment by revolving each component.
  • each component has four arms ydisposed at right angles to each other.
  • a portable barrier according to claim l wherein the arms of each component are formed by a pair of V-shaped members having arcuate bases which are fixed to the hoop.
  • each component comprises a second hoop concentric with and larger than said central hoop', said second hoop being connected to said arms.
