Definitions

  • ABSTRACT This invention relates to a fencing consisting of posts and of panels of welded mesh, trellis/work or suchlike, mounted between these posts, the said fencing being characterized in that each post is provided with at least two rings which can be shifted or moved longitudinally with respect to the post over the post and can be fastened to the post at any point thereof, and in that each panel is provided with a rigid wire or rod at its edges adjoining the posts, whereby thickenings or crossbars emerging from this rigid wire or rod are provided at a short distance from both extremities of this rod, while a first set of two rings of each post is provided with Ion f gitudinal apertures corresponding to each other for engaging the extremities of the rigid wire or rod of at least one of the panels adjoining this post.
  • FENCING tual separation devices such as trelliswork, welded mesh, etc., by means of clamps, nails or wires.
  • a further disadvantage of the enclosures so far known is that the dismounting of such fences is a com plicated operation, whereby an easy loosening of the various components of the fencing is not possible.
  • the object of this invention is to eliminate these disadvantages and to provide a fencing whereby anybody is able to mount such a fencing very quickly and without special knowledge or experience, to dismantle it with ease and to use it again; the said fencing being furthermore particularly suited for the fencing of areas on sloping terrains.
  • the invention provides for a fencing consisting of posts and of panels of welded mesh, trelliswork or the like mounted between these posts; the said invention being characterized in that each post is provided with at least two rings which can be shifted or moved longitudinally with respect to the post over this whereby thickenings or cross-bars emerging from this rod are mounted at a short distance from both extremities of this rod, while a first set of two rings of each post is provided with longitudinal apertures corresponding to each other for engaging the extremities of the rigid wire or rod of at least one of the panels adjoining this post.
  • FIG. 1 in perspective, a fencing according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 a post withtwo adjoining panels which are fastened at the same height to this post by means of one set of two rings;
  • FIG. 3 on a greater scale, a ring which is used for the construction of the fencing according to the invention
  • a post with two adjoining panels, which are fastened at different height to this post by means of two the post is preferably made pointed so that the post can easily be driven into the ground.
  • the cross-section of the post is preferably circular.
  • The: post may eventually be made hollow.
  • a first ring 2 is fastened to the post 1 at a short distance from the ground see FIG. 2).
  • the inner diameter of the ring 2 is somewhat larger than the outer diameter of the post 1, so that the ring 2 can be slipped or moved over the post 1.
  • the ring 2 (see FIG. 3) is in its lateral surface preferably provided with two cross apertures 3, which are located diametrically opposite to each other and pro vided with screw thread, the said cross apertures debouching into the central bore of the ring2.
  • This ring 2 is now fastened to the post 1 by screwing two screws 4, preferably pointed, of adequate length and with appropriate wire in these apertures 3 and tightening them. It is also possible to provide the post 1 with a number of bores of little depth for accommodating the extremities of the screws and to obtain a firm fastening of the ring 2 to the post 1 in this way. It has been found, however, that by tightening only one screw on the post 1, the ring 2 is firmly in place on the post.
  • This ring 2 is likewise provided with longitudinal apertures 5 and longitudinal channels 6 (see FIG. 3), the function of which will be described below.
  • Each panel 7 is at its edges adjoining the posts 1 provided with a rigid wire or rod 8 (see FIG. 2).
  • the free extremities 9 of the rod 8 are defined by crossbars l0 and 1 I. It is also possible to define the free extremeities of the rod 8 by means of a thickening, etc When the panel is made of welded mesh, it is easy to obtain such a free extremity 9 by removing one or more meshes in the corners in an appropriate manner.
  • the edges of panel 7 is fastened firmly and in a simple manner to post 1.
  • This panel 7 is preferably a solid unity (see FIG. 1) i.e., a unit made of welded mesh with wires of adequate thickness or a trelliswork, which is strengthened at the edges by means of cross and longitudinal bars 8, 10, and 11.
  • the panel 7 is a trelliswork, which is only strengthened with a rod 8 at its edges adjoining the posts, which rod 8 is provided with thickenings for defining the free extremities 9.
  • the second rod 8 of this panel 7 is fastened to the following post 1' by means of two rings. The operation is the same for the following posts and panels until the complete fencing has been constructed.
  • FIG. 4 shows clearly in which manner two adjoining panels 7 and 7 are fastened to the post 1 at different height.
  • the first set of two rings 2 and the second set of two rings 2 hold various panels 7 and 7 in longitudinal apertures and 5 respectively.
  • the lower ring 2 of this set is provided with a longitudinal channel 6 for accommodating or guiding the wire 8, which is engaged in openings 5 of the second set of two rings 2'.
  • FIG. 5 shows clearly how two panels 7 are engaged in the corresponding longitudinal apertures 5 of the first set of two rings 2. Therefore, two longitudinal channels 6' must be provided in the upper ring 2' of the second set of rings 2 to accommodate the rods 8 of these panels 7. It is obvious that a number of other combinations can be effected.
  • the rings 2 engage a rod 8 of an adjoining panel 7and a rod 8 of an adjoining gate 7.
  • the diameters of longitudinal apertures 5 for engaging rod 8 are greater than the diameters of longitudinal apertures 5 for the engaging of rod 8.
  • This invention is obviously not confined to rings.
  • Other components 2, which can be moved or shifted over post 1, can be utilized.
  • the cross-section of the bore of component 2 is circular, while the outer periphery of the cross-section of this component 2 is rectangular, square or polygonal.
  • the cross-section of the rod 1 does not necessarily present the same shape as the cross-section of the bore of component 2.
  • the rings can be fastened to the post 1 in another manner, such as by taking twopart rings which are clamped around the post 1 by joining together both parts of the ring.
  • the fencing according to the invention is advantageous, among other things, when erecting temporary fences, as is customary for example when fencing off spaces for animals, whereby successive pieces of land must serve as pastureland or other land.
  • a fencing system comprising:
  • said fence panel including two vertically spaced cross-bars and two horizontally spaced upright rods attached to said cross-bars and having portions extending beyond said cross-bars,
  • each of said ring members having upper and lower surfaces connected by cylindrical inner and outer surfaces, the diameter of said inner cylindrical surface being slightly greater than the diameter of said fence post,
  • two of said ring members having a slot extending radially inwardly from said outer surface so as to provide a channel extending from said upper surface to said lower surface for permitting one of said rods on one of said panels to extend past said ring members having said slots without said one of said rods being confined in one of said apertures.
