Definitions
- the fence clamp is fabricated from a relatively thin elongated, normally U-shaped metal strap, which encircles the tubular fence structure and includes an oblique angled groove therein for accommodating a strand of the wire fabric.
- Hook-shaped portions provided on the terminal ends of the strap cooperatively engage each other and are bent towards a transverse ridge provided proximate one terminal end portion of the strap thereby locking the strap and affixing the strand of wire fabric to the tubular fence structure.
- An upstruck portion in the terminal end of the strap cooperatively engages a slot in the other terminal end portion of the strap to prevent lateral disengagement thereof.
- the present invention relates generally to fence clamps, and more particularly, to a wire fabric fence clamp which is easily installed and tamper-proof thereafter.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a tamper-proof wire fabric clamp that is relatively inexpensive to manufacture and install.
- the tamper-proof clamp for affixing wire fabric material to fence frame structures comprises an elongated strap having a longitudinal axis, the elongated strap normally being generally U-shaped and having a base portion and first and second arm portions.
- a groove, substantially centrally disposed within the base portion opens inwardly, and extends across the strap'at an oblique angle relative to the longitudinal axis thereof.
- the free end of the first arm portion is inwardly bent at the terminal end thereof to form a first hook-shaped portion.
- the free end of thesecond arm portion is outwardly bent at the terminal end thereof to form a second hook-shaped portion.
- An outwardly facing ridge extends transversely across the strap proximate the second hook-shaped portion.
- the first and second hook-shaped portions are adapted to be displaced towards each other for cooperative engagement when the strap is disposed about the frame structure with the wire fabric being retained in the groove to fixedly secure the wire fabric material to the fence structure.
- the cooperatively engaged hook-shaped portions are adapted for bending displacement towards the outwardly facing ridge until flush therewith.
- FIG. 1 is a pictorial representation of a wire fabric fence with which the present invention may be employed;
- FIG. 2 is a fragmentary view on an enlarged scale as indicated by the area within the broken line 2 in FIG.
- FIG. 3 is an end view in elevation of the area shown in FIG. 2 illustrating the configuration of the clamp when completely installed;
- FIG. 4 is an enlarged pictorial representation in perspective of the wire fabric fence clamp in accordance with the principles of the present invention.
- FIG. 5 is an end view in elevation of the clamp shown in FIG. 4 illustrating the cooperation of the terminal ends of the clamp with the upper and lower jaws of a hand tool suited for the installation thereof;
- FIG. 6 is an end view in elevation of the fence clamp shown in FIG. 4 in the process of having the terminal end hook portions cooperatively engaged by a hand tool therefor;
- FIG. 7 is an end view in elevation of the fence clamp shown in FIG. 4 with the cooperatively engaged portions thereof being hammered into position;
- FIG. 8 is an enlarged fragmentary cross-sectional view in elevation of an installed fence clamp taken along the line 8-8 of FIG. 3.
- the security fence 10 includes horizontally and vertically positioned tubular-shaped fence frame structures 12; extending bracket portions 14, which are adapted to support thereon barbed wire 16 in a conventional manner; and wire fabric material 18, which is affixed to the tubular fence frame structures 12 by means of a plurality of tamper-proof wire fabric fence clamps 20 constructed in accordance with the present invention.
- individual strands 30 of the wire fabric material 18 are adapted to be held in intimate contact with a tubular fence post or structure 12 by the snug fitting fence clamp 20 with each clamp 20 providing a shallow silhouette so that it is impervious to attack by conventional hand tools frequently used by vandals.
- tubular-shaped fence frame structures and circular-shaped wire strands 30 which form the wire fabric fence material
- the principles set forth herein apply equally as well to fence structures and wire fabric material manufactured with other configurations.
- each clamp 20 is preferably manufactured from a relatively thin, elongated, narrow stainless steel strap formed in a generally U-shaped configuration.
- a vinyl-covered metallic material may be used to fabricate the clamp 20 so as to provide the same non-corrosive advantages as that provided by the stainless steel strap material.
- the normally U-shaped clamp 20 which has a longitudinal extent approximately equal to the circumference of the tubular fence structure with which it is to be employed, includes a base portion 22 and two oppositely disposed arm portions 24 and 26.
- the base portion 22 has an inside radius of curvature substantially equal to the outer radius of curvature of the tubular fence structure and includes a substantially centrally located groove 28 which opens inwardly with respect to the U-shape of the clamp 20 and is adapted to retain therein a strand (single wire) 30 of the wire fabric material.
- the inside radius of curvature of the groove 28 should be approximately the same as the radius of curvature of the wire strand 30 but is preferably made slightly smaller than the radius of curvature of the strand to more tightly retain the strand therein when the clamp is installed.
- the groove 28 is formed at an oblique angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the strap as most clearly seen in FIGS. 2 and 4. This is done inasmuch as conventional wire fabric fence material, commonly referred to as chain link, is usually fabricated from wire stands which are interwoven and linked together to form generally diamond-shaped apertures (see FIG.
- the obliquely oriented groove 28 enables the fence clamp to accommodate the similarly obliquely oriented wire strands 30 and securely affix the wire fabric material to either horizontally or vertically oriented fence frame structures 12 as the case may be.
- the groove 28 may be oriented in a corresponding manner relative to the longitudinal axis of the strap, e.g., the axis of groove 28 may be oriented at a right angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the strap when the fence fabric material comprises wire strands oriented parallel and perpendicular to the fence frame support structure or post.
- an offset 32 (FIG. 2) is advantageously introduced into the base portion in order to prevent shearing of the strap.
- the arm portions 24, 26 of clamp 20 will not be positioned in the same plane when the clamp is normally disposed as shown, for example, in FIG. 4.
- the ramifications of the offset arm portions 24, 26 will become apparent hereinafter.
- the free end of the first arm portion 24 is inwardly bent along a first transverse crease line 35 to form a first hook-shaped portion 34 at the terminal end of the first arm portion 24.
- the first hook-shaped portion 34 includes a first section 34a and a second section 34b disposed on either side of the transverse crease line 35, respectively.
- the first section 34a of the hook-shaped portion 34 is bent slightly inwardly with respect to arm portion 24 along a second crease line 37 to define a slightly inwardly extending inclination to section 34a.
- First and second crease lines 35, 37 coincide with a corresponding pair of transverse bending axes 39, 41 the purpose of which will be more fully explained below.
- an aperture or perforation 38 is provided in the first arm portion 24 proximate the first section 34a of the hook-shaped portion 34 as clearly shown in FIG. 4, and a protruding or up-stuck portion 40 is provided in the upper surface of the second section 34b of the hook-shaped portion 34 as viewed in FIG. 4.
- the up-struck portion 40 is preferably located substantially centrally with respect to the transverse extent of the second section 34b and may be provided therein by a conventional coining process. The respective functions of the aperture 38 and upstruck portion 40 will be explained hereinafter.
- the free end of the second arm portion 26 is outwardly bent along a third crease line 45 to form a second hook-shaped portion 42 at the terminal end thereof having a first section 420 and a second section 42b disposed on opposite sides of the crease line 45, respectively.
- the third crease line 45 coincides with a corresponding transverse bending axis 47 the function of which will be discussed more fully below.
- Proximately located with respect to the first section 42a of the second hook-shaped portion 42 is an outwardly protruding ridge 44 extending transversely across the width of the second arm portion 26 and having a height with reference to the outer surface of second arm portion 26 at least as great as the combined thickness of sections 34a, 34b, and 42b.
- This outwardly protruding transversely extending ridge 44 may preferably be provided in the second arm portion 26 by forming a transverse groove therein opening inwardly with respect to the U-shaped clamp 20.
- a cut-out or slot 46 is provided in the second section 42b of the second hookshaped portion 42 substantially as shown in FIG. 4, that is, with the slot opening in the outer free edge of the second section 42b and having its rearward extent terminating substantially at the third crease line 45.
- the cut-out 46 is sized and shaped sufficiently to receive the up-struck portion 40 on the first hook-shaped portion 34 for reasons which will be made more apparent in the ensuing discussion.
- either arm 24, 26 may be outwardly flexed relative to the other arm and the clamp may then be inserted through a pair of adjacent apertures or openings 48 provided in the wire fabric material until a wire strand 30 is accommodated within oblique angled groove 28 and the first (upper) and second (lower) arm portions 24 and 26 of the clamp 20 respectively, surround the tubular fence frame structure 12 as shown in FIG. 5.
- the arm portions 24 and 26 of the U- shaped clamp are normally inwardly directed toward each other so that the spacing 50 between the terminal portions of these arm portions is smaller than the diameter of the fence frame structure 12 thereby tending to hold the wire fabric material 18 to the fence frame structure 12 in the position generally shown in FIG. 5.
- a plier-type hand tool 52 especially adapted for this purpose and having an upperjaw 54 and a lower jaw 55 may preferably be used to complete the installation of the clamp 20.
- a plier-type hand tool 52 especially adapted for this purpose and having an upperjaw 54 and a lower jaw 55 may preferably be used to complete the installation of the clamp 20.
- the hand tool 52 reference may be had to copending patent application entitled Hand Tool For Installing Wire Fabric Fence Clamps," Ser. No. 432,357, filed Jan. 10, 1974 in the name of P. A. Basile, and assigned to the same assignee as the present invention.
- the upper jaw 54 of the hand tool is relatively narrow and is provided with an elongated projection 58 (FIG.
- first and second hook-shaped portions 34, 42 are displaced toward each other by the closing action of the tool jaws 54, 56 they are pulled into the same plane for cooperative engagement thereby overcoming the offset 32 caused by the provision of the oblique groove 28, as mentioned earlier. Once the first and second hook-shaped portions 34, 42 have become engaged the hand tool may then be removed.
- the outer peripheral surface of the lower jaw 56 of hand tool 52 is preferably provided with a flat portion 66 suitable for hammering. Accordingly, this hammering surface 66 may then be used to bend the cooperatively engaged hook-shaped portions 34 and 42 towards the transverse ridge 44 as shown in FIG. 7 to complete installation of the clamp 20.
- the sharply rounded edge defined by the second crease line 35 of the first hook-shaped portion will abut up against and be protected by the ridge 44 whereupon subsequent unauthorized attempts to open the clamp by the insertion of a sharp blade (e.g., a screwdriver blade) underneath the second section 34b will be prevented.
- a sharp blade e.g., a screwdriver blade
- the up-struck portion 40 provided in the second section 34b of the first hook-shaped portion 34 will cooperatively engage the cut-out 46 provided in the second section 42b of the second hook-shaped portion 42, thereby preventing relative vertical displacement (as viewed in FIG. 8) between the first and second arm portions 24, 26 of clamp when struck by a vandals tool. Accordingly, a vandal will be unable to remove the tamperproof fabric fence clamp from the fabric side of the fence. Removal of the clamp from the frame structure side of the fence is equally difficult.
