Description
A Balustrade structure with adjustable rake or angular orientation of the rails
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a balustrading structure.
The invention relates particularly to a mounting unit for use in erecting a balustrading structure and to a complete kit for erecting a balustrading structure.
BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION
A balustrading structure as herein envisaged usually is erected along an edge of a verandah, along one or both sides of a staircase, and in like situations where a barrier is required. A typical balustrading structure includes a plurality of stanchions that are operatively located in spaced locations along the edge of a structure along which a barrier is required, and rails that are securely located with respect to the stanchions and that span the spaces between the stanchions to effectively constitute the required barrier.
The stanchions of a balustrading structure of the above type typically comprise poles, often tubular, of aluminium, or any other suitable material, and elongate
rails, often also tubular, of the same or a different material, that are located within apertures formed therefore with the stanchions. A known and apparent difficulty associated with the erection of a balustrading structure of the above type occurs when the balastrading structure must extend at an angle to a horizontal plane, e.g. along the side edge of a staircase, in which case the rails will not be perpendicularly disposed with respect to the stanchions and the required configuration of the apertures in the stanchions is difficult to achieve.
As such, it is an object of this invention to at least alleviate the difficulty envisaged above in relation to the erection of a balustrading structure of the above type and that requires the location of rails with respect to stanchions.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In accordance with the invention there is provided a mounting unit for use in erecting a balustrading structure including stanchions and rails, which includes:
a locating element securable externally on a stanchion; and
a tubular element defining two ends and a longitudinal axis extending between its two ends and in which the tubular element is locatable with respect to the locating element in a configuration in which the angular orientation of the tubular element with respect to the locating element is adjustable about its longitudinal axis and the tubular element defines a locating formation therein within which a rail is locatable for its location in a required angular orientation with respect to a stanchion to which the locating element is operatively secured.
The locating element of the mounting unit may be a disc-like element that is securable externally on a stanchion by any suitable securing means, e.g. by a rivet, by a securing screw or the like.
One face of the disc-like element may define a profile that is complementary to the external profile of a stanchion in the region of the stanchion where the locating element is to be secured, thereby to facilitate the required operative configuration of the locating element with respect to the stanchion to which it is to be secured.
Particularly in the operative configuration of the tubular element with respect to the locating element, one end of the tubular element may be rotatably located with respect to the locating element.
The mounting unit may include a pair of locating elements of which one is securable externally on a stanchion, the tubular element in its operative configuration being rotatably located between the pair of locating elements.
The locating elements may respectively define formations on which opposite ends of the tubular element may be rotatably located.
The mounting unit may include a clamping arrangement which serves to locate the locating elements with respect to one another when the tubular element is rotatably located between them, the clamping arrangement permitting the locating elements to be urged towards one another to thereby securely clamp the tubular element between them.
The clamping arrangement may include a pair of screws that pass through holes in the locating element operatively disposed remote from a stanchion and longitudinally through the tubular element and that then screw into the locating element operatively secured to the stanchion.
The locating element disposed operatively remote from a stanchion in the operative configuration of the mounting unit further may define a formation operable to act on a rail located within the locating formation defined by the tubular element for securing the location of the rail with respect to the tubular element, typically by a clamping action.
The locating formation defined by the tubular element may be a hole formed in a wall of the tubular element and through which one end of a rail can pass for its location with respect to the tubular element.
The locating formation defined by the tubular element may also be defined by two diametrically opposed holes formed in the wall of the tubular element and through which a rail can pass for its location with respect to the tubular element.
The erection of a balustrading structure including stanchions and rails and with the aid of mounting units, in accordance with the invention, therefore will include initially the location of stanchions in required spaced locations along the edge of a structure along which a barrier is required. For a balustrading structure including a plurality of rails, locating elements of mounting units are then secured to the stanchions at required levels, following which the mounting units are assembled by the location of tubular elements between pairs of locating elements, while the tubular elements remain rotatable. Rails can then be slidably displaced through the locating formations defined by the tubular elements, following which the clamping arrangement can be rendered effective, thereby to integrate the mounting unit with its stanchion and the rail passing through the locating formation of the tubular element of the mounting unit. It will be understood that the rotatable displacement of tubular elements will permit the location of rails in different angular configurations with respect to stanchions, without in any way affecting the erection or complicating the erection.
The invention extends to a kit for erecting a balustrading structure, the kit including mounting units for mounting rails to stanchions wherein a mounting unit comprises
a locating element securable externally to a stanchion and a tubular element defining two ends and a longitudinal axis extending between its two ends and wherein the tubular element is locatable with respect to the locating element in a configuration in which the angular orientation of the tubular element with respect to the locating element is adjustable about its longitudinal axis and the tubular element defines a locating formation therein within which a rail is locatable for its location in a required angular orientation with respect to a stanchion to which the locating element is operatively secured.
The invention further extends to a kit for erecting a balustrading structure, the kit including mounting units, stanchions and rails, wherein a mounting unit comprises a locating element securable externally to a stanchion and a tubular element defining two ends and a longitudinal axis extending between its two ends, and wherein the tubular element is locatable in a configuration in which the angular orientation of the tubular element with respect to the locating element is adjustable about its longitudinal axis and the tubular element defines a locating formation therewith within which a rail is locatable for its location in a required angular orientation with respect to a stanchion to which the locating element is operatively secured.
The kit may also include any other elements and components that can form part of a balustrading structure.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Further features of the invention are described hereinafter by way of a non-limiting example of the invention, with reference to and as illustrated in the accompanying diagrammatic drawings. In the drawings:-
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a balustrading structure erected in accordance with the invention;
Figures 2 to 5 illustrate the erection of the balustrading structure of Figure 1 with the aid of mounting units according to the invention;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION WITH REFERENCE TO THE DRAWINGS
Referring to the drawings, a balustrading structure formed of a kit, in accordance with the invention, is designated generally by the reference numeral 10. The balustrading structure 10 includes a segment 12 in which the rails of the structure are disposed at an angle to a horizontal plane and a segment 14 in which the rails are disposed parallel to the horizontal plane. The balustrading structure typically is located along the side of a staircase, in which case the segment 12 can coincide with the stairs of the staircase and the segment 14 can coincide with a landing.
The balustrading structure 10 particularly includes a plurality of stanchions 16 that are associated with mounting structures 18 whereby the stanchions are mounted in a required spaced configuration along the line along which the balustrading structure is to be erected. The balustrading structure also includes four rails 20 that are secured to and that span the spaces between the stanchions 18, as well as a handrail 22 that is secured on top of the stanchions 16. The handrail 22 is secured on the stanchions by means of a suitable mounting bracket 24 and has an end cap 26 located at the end thereof. A corner joint 28 is secured to the handrail at the other end thereof insofar as, in practice, the balustrading structure can extend from the stanchion 16.1 at a 90° angle. Swivel joints 30 are provided in the locations indicated, essentially providing for the separate rail segments forming rails
20 and handrail segments forming the handrail 22, to be connected at these locations.
Except for the mode of mounting the handrails 20 on the stanchions 16, the mode of construction of the balustrading structure 10 as above described above is greatly variable, it being envisaged that the components and parts utilized for the structure 10 can be provided as parts of a kit for forming the structure 10.
Referring now also to Figures 2 to 5 of the drawings, Figures 2 and 3 illustrate the location of a rail 20 in a non-perpendicular configuration with respect to a stanchion 16, whereas Figures 4 and 5 illustrate the location of a rail 20 in a perpendicular configuration with respect to a stanchion 16. In both cases the rail 20 is located with respect to its stanchion 16 with the aid of a mounting unit, in accordance with the invention, the mounting unit being designated generally by the reference numeral 40 in these figures.
The mounting unit 40 essentially includes a pair of locating elements, 42.1 and 42.2 respectively, the locating elements having a tubular element 44 located between them. Clamping screws 46 pass through holes in the locating element 42.2 and longitudinally through the tubular element 44 and then screw into the locating element 42.1 for holding the complete mounting unit in its operative configuration.
Both the locating elements 42 are disc-like elements, the element 42.1 defining a profiled face that abuts the stanchion 16, thus to secure the location thereof with respect to the stanchion at a required level and in a configuration in which it can be secured to the stanchion, typically by means of a rivet, a securing screw, or the like. Insofar as the stanchion 16 typically is a tubular aluminium pole, the profiled face of the element 42.1 clearly is suitably curved so that opposite abutting faces of the stanchion 16 and the element 42.1 are complementary to one another. Both the locating elements 42 define a formation 48 that fits slidably into the tubular element 44, providing for the orientation of the element 44 with respect to the
locating elements 42 to be adjustable about the longitudinal axis of the element, the clamping screws 46 through tightening permitting the orientation of the tubular element 44 with respect to the locating elements 42 to be fixed.
The tubular element 44 has a pair of diametrically aligned holes 50 formed therein, the diameter of the holes being such that the rails 20 can fit slidably therethrough and then be clamped with respect to the tubular element as is explained hereafter.
As is clear from Figures 2 to 5 of the drawings, by adjusting the orientation of the tubular element of each mounting unit, the holes therein can be positioned in a required location in which it can accommodate the angle of the rail that must pass therethrough, this being clearly apparent from Figures 3 and 5. Once a mounting unit has been mounted on a stanchion, rails can be displaced through the tubular elements of the mounting units, following which the clamping screws can be tightened, thus to secure the assembly of the mounting units and the position of the tubular elements between the locating elements thereof. Upon tightening, the formation 48 of the locating element 42.2 also can be displaced to act on a rail passing through the holes 50, to thereby claim the rail within the holes 50 and thereby still further enhance the rigidity of the balustrading structure erected.
It will be appreciated that with the use of mounting units as described, the known difficulties that are associated particularly with the erection of a balustrading structure with rails angularly disposed with respect to a horizontal plane are largely overcome, thus rendering the provision of a kit including stanchions, rails and mounting units a practical consideration. The invention accordingly extends to a kit including the components and elements as described, as well as to variations thereof which still incorporate the essential principles of the invention as herein defined and described and to any other components and parts that can form part of a balustrading structure.
The invention extends also to a balustrading structure which is formed of the components and parts of a kit, in accordance with the invention, and to a
ballustrading structure which includes stanchions and rails and in which the rails are mounted on a structure with mounting units, in accordance with the invention. The configuration of stanchions and rails, particularly their cross-sectional profiles, clearly can be greatly varied in order to achieve different visual effects. As such, the configuration of the mounting unit for use with different stanchions and/or rails can be suitably adapted while still incorporating the essential features and principles above defined and described.
