Definitions

  • THIS INVENTION relates to a fence assembly and in particular but not limited to a temporary fence assembly for use adjacent to construction sites or the like as a barrier.
  • barriers range from flexible roll out perforated plastics sheeting which is very cheap, usually used near pedestrian traffic, but may be easily displaced by wind or minor impacts to rigid structures.
  • rigid structures which are very expensive are usually used near vehicular traffic.
  • a fence assembly that enables a non-straight fence to be easily assembled from mesh panels and wherein a cheap and effective fence is provided and where the invention provides a useful alternative to the prior art.
  • a fence assembly comprising panels formed from a covered rigid mesh adjacent panels having overlapping sections of the panels, the overlapping sections of the panels forming a post pass through passage means, and there being post means interconnecting the adjacent panels at the overlapping sections and passing through post pass through passage means.
  • the invention provides a fence assembly comprising panels formed from a covered rigid mesh preferably covered with a shrink-wrap coating, adjacent panels having overlapping sections of the panels, the overlapping sections of the panels forming part of an operative pivot means enabling construction of an non-straight fence, and there being post means interconnecting the adjacent panels at the overlapping sections.
  • the panels are covered with a shrink-wrap plastics coating so the panels are impermeable to passage of dust, adjacent panels having longitudinal upper and lower flanges spaced at their ends so that the flanges of one panel fits inside the flanges of the other panel in overlapping relation, the mesh at the flanges at the region of overlap forming the post pass through passage means and in conjunction with the post forming an operative pivot means enabling construction of an non-straight fence, and the post means interconnecting the adjacent panels at the overlapping sections.
  • the post means connects the panels at the pivot means so that the post functions as a pivot pin passing through the overlapping sections of the adjacent panels.
  • the panels are preferably formed from a pre-shrink wrapped rigid mesh sheet formed while flat and having folded upper and lower rails formed byfolding over upper and lower edges of the mesh respectively.
  • the rails have end apertures formed by a portion of the mesh, the end apertures of adjacent panel rails overlapping and a post is able to operative pass through overlapping upper and lower rail apertures to connect the panels together in a hinge pin configuration.
  • each panel tapers to one end so that the narrow end of an adjacent panel fits inside the wide end of the next adjacent panel at the region of overlap.
  • each post has a cap applied to the post.
  • the cap comprises a mushroom shaped cap having a hollow stem section which fits over the post.
  • the cap also preferably includes a groove so that a strap secured to the post, usually by a pin, may pass over the cap to retain the cap in operative position.
  • Each post is usually driven into the ground a predetermined distance suited to the panel height and therefore the panel height may be adjusted by adjusting the post height.
  • each post has spaced holes so that a pin may be inserted through one of the holes to enable the panel position on the post to be adjusted.
  • a strap comprising a U-shaped filament, typically wire, having eyelets at its free ends passes over the top of the post, usually over the cap, the eyelets being positioned in-line with one of the holes in the post and then a pin is inserted through the eyelets and the hole in the post.
  • the panel slides down onto the pin. This means the panel may either rest on the ground or subject to how far the post is driven into the ground the bottom of the panel may be held above ground.
  • an extruded coping is applied to the upper rail of the assembled fence.
  • Figure l is a perspective drawing of a fence including a non-straight fence assembly according to the invention
  • Figure 2 is a cutaway part view of a an operative pivot means derived from overlapping rail sections and a star picket as post and hinge pin.

  • the panel 11 is shown in part with a dappled appearance at 16 and 17 due to the inclusion of a shrink-wrap cover applied to the panel 11. All other panels also have a similar coating.

  • All other panels also have a similar coating.
  • the shrink-wrap material is applied to the mesh as a flat panel.
  • the panel with the shrink-wrap so applied is then folded over at the top and bottom to form rail 18 as a lower rail and 19 an upper rail.
  • the panels taper so the spacing between the upper and lower rails is wider at one end than the other so the panels are effectively left and right handed. This enable the narrow end of one panel to be inserted inside the wide end of the next panel It is usual to provide a positioning sticker at one end to identify the right or left ends.
  • the end of the rail is created with a suitably sized plastic covered aperture at 20 and 21 which may simple be cut or speared through so that a star picket 22 may punch through to form the apertures 20 and 21 to secure the panel in its operative position by driving the star picket into the ground.
  • the panel 11 is 2400 mm long and the panel 12 is 1125 mm long, the height of the panels is nominally 1070 mm high.
  • the rails 18 and 19 simply overlap so the respective end apertures 20 and 21 are positioned in overlapping configuration so that the star picket may pass through the overlapping apertures to connect the panels together as shown in the assembled portions of the fence in Figure 1.
  • the star picket is so sized and the aperture of the folded rail section so chosen that the panels are able to rotate with the star picket 22 operatively performing the function of a pivot pin thus the combination provides a pivot means at the juncture between adjacent panels.
  • the panels may be positioned say at 90 degrees the post 22 driven into position and then the panel so connected may be swung through various angles up until the straight on position as panels 11 and 12 illustrated so that either a straight or non-straight fence may be formed.

Abstract

La présente invention vise un ensemble de clôture (10) comportant une pluralité de panneaux (11, 12, 13 et 14) avec un panneau (15) destiné à être relié au panneau (11). Sur l’illustration, le panneau (11) est présenté en partie avec un aspect tacheté en (16 et 17) en raison de l’inclusion d’une couverture en pellicule rétrécissable appliquée au panneau (11). Tous les autres panneaux ont un revêtement similaire. Le panneau (11) a une forme de base en maille rigide. Le matériau en pellicule rétractable est appliqué à la maille sous la forme d’un panneau plat. Le panneau doté de la pellicule rétrécissable ainsi appliquée est alors replié au-dessus du haut et du bas pour former un rail (18) inférieur et un rail (19) supérieur. Les panneaux s’effilent de façon à ce que l’espacement entre les rails supérieur et inférieur soit plus large à une extrémité qu’à l’autre pour avoir, en réalité, un panneau de gauche et un panneau de droite. Un piquet métallique à tige en étoile est enfoncé dans le sol par les rails qui se chevauchent. Un capuchon est appliqué aux poteaux et tenu par une retenue et une goupille.
