Definitions

the invention relates to a fence made of large-area fence elements that can be fastened to posts, each post being fastened in the ground and having two terminal strips running in its longitudinal direction, which can be clamped together by means of several bolts and nuts and between which edge sections are held by fence elements adjacent to the posts .
the invention can be used above all on wooden fences, in particular on wicker fences, but it can also be implemented on fence elements and posts made of other materials, for example of metal.
each post consists of a metal rod, the lower part of which is passed through a concrete block embedded in the ground for fastening in the ground and the lower end of which is threaded for screwing on a fastening nut is. Above the concrete block, the two wooden clamping strips can be clamped together on the metal rod using screw bolts and nuts.
Fence elements which are arranged one above the other and which consist of fence slats or also of a few relatively high tabular elements are held in the space between the two terminal strips.
the height of the fence elements which form a fence field and are arranged one above the other is limited. Because to bring about the necessary bracing of the edge sections. certain maximum distances between the bolts in the longitudinal direction of the post must not be exceeded between the terminal strips. Furthermore, the construction of the individual fence fields by stacking individual fence elements on top of one another is relatively time-consuming and laborious, and the same applies to the load-bearing fence structure made of concrete blocks and metal posts.
each post consist only of the two terminal strips
each large-area fence element comprises a fence field to be arranged as a whole between two posts, which are each formed vertically continuously in one piece between the two terminal strips, the screw bolts and nuts , seen in the width direction of the terminal strips, are arranged centrally on these and there are clamping points for receiving spacers or cross anchors on the section of the post to be recessed in the ground.
This inventive design of the fence simplifies the components required for its manufacture and, above all, the assembly of the fence is made considerably easier.
the components can be supplied by the manufacturer as a ready-to-assemble kit and easily connected to one another on site without special tools and without special expertise to form a stable fence. Minor inaccuracies with regard to the position and spacing of the posts can be accepted in the inventive design of the components of the fence, since the connection between the terminal strips and the edge sections of the large-area fence elements does not require an absolutely exact distance of the respective fence element from the post.
the posts are to be placed, each at a distance corresponding to the width of the large-area fence elements, spacers between the two terminal strips that form the post are attached to the clamping area in the ground by means of screws and nuts at several clamping points, so that the Terminal strips are already assembled to form the post when the post is sunk into the ground.
transverse anchors namely, for example, slats or the like arranged in the transverse direction of the post
the individual fence fields between the posts can be produced quickly because large-scale fence elements, namely panel-like elements, are arranged as a whole between two posts, so that their vertically continuous one-piece edge sections are located between the two terminal strips.
large-scale fence elements namely panel-like elements
edge sections are clamped between the terminal strips, by tightening the bolts and nuts, the bolts being appropriately prepared beforehand by Drilled holes in the terminal strips and are initially held loose with the nuts.
the central arrangement of the bolts and nuts allows the edge sections of the fence elements to be inserted almost up to the mutual contact of adjacent fence elements in the space between the terminal strips, where the edge sections of adjacent fence elements are separated from one another only by the shafts of the screw bolts.
the width of the terminal strips is optimally utilized to create the largest possible contact areas between the terminal strips and the edge sections, and the fact that the edge sections of the one-piece large-area fence elements are gripped by the terminal strips without interruption, namely vertically continuously, is an extraordinarily robust and permanent connection Reachable between the posts and the fence elements, especially since the central position of the bolts and nuts on the terminal strips creates a clamping pressure that acts uniformly on both sides, in contrast to the previously known fence, where not only the fence elements consist of individual, more or less high, fence posts exist, which require a correspondingly longer assembly time when setting up the fence and the edge portions of each of these fence elements must be clamped, which inevitably leads to a relatively short maximum distance between each other leads screw bolt, but also the pressure
the clamping strips In order to increase the pressure on the edge sections of the fence elements to be clamped, the clamping strips have inner recesses for the formation of pressure webs facing the edge sections.
a certain amount of play can be accepted for the distance of the fence elements to the posts, since a secure clamping connection between posts and large-area fence elements is still possible if an edge section is only partially in the space is inserted between the terminal strips.
the material quality of the large-area fence elements which are supplied by the manufacturer as a one-piece area element, can be selected as a result of the intimate connection of the area element with the posts, depending on the purpose of the fence
the terminal strips are preferably made of hardwood, which is particularly suitable for the inventive design and use of the posts enables simple and reliable way.
the fence elements are preferably braided fence elements bordered by a wooden frame, the vertical frame pieces corresponding to the edge sections to be clamped between the terminal strips. This has the further advantage that the pressure on both sides of the edge sections effectively supports the anchoring of the wickerwork embedded in the grooves of the frame pieces.
the invention can be used above all on wooden fences, in particular on wicker fences, but it can also be implemented on fence elements and posts made of other material, for example metal.
fence elements 4 made of wattle 17 are fastened all around with a frame 5 between the posts 1.
each post 1 is divided in the longitudinal direction into two terminal strips 1 a, 1 b.
At the lower section 3 there are two cross anchors 6 in the ready-to-install state of the post 1, which are fastened by means of bolts and nuts, as shown, simultaneously acting as spacers and giving the post 1 an effective hold against wind pressure in the floor 2.
the two clamping strips 1 a, 1 have, at several clamping points distributed over the length of the post 1, mutually aligned bores 7 for receiving a screw bolt 8 with a nut 9 and washers or spring washers 10, with which the two clamping plates 1 a, 1 b in the Fig. 3 can be seen braced together.
the head 11 of the bolt 8 is, like the nut 9, recessed in recesses 12.
Each of the terminal strips 1 a, 1 is milled on its inside to form a recess 13 with external pressure webs 14.
a vertical edge section 15 of the adjacent fence elements 4 is inserted from the right and left , it being shown that the wattle 17 of the fence elements 4 is embedded in grooves 16 of each edge section 15 which forms part of the frame 5.
the terminal strips 1 a, 1 b are pressed against the frame pieces 15 by tightening the screw bolt 8 with its nut 9 at the clamping points, so that webs 14 are clamped to the edge portions 15 with high contact pressure .
the pressure of the two legs of each edge section 15, in which the groove 16 is formed also increases on the wattle 17 arranged in the groove 16, so that there is a further fastening effect for this.
the fence can be erected using simple tools such as spades (for digging in the posts 1) and wrenches (for tightening the nuts 9 on the bolts 8). It also does not matter whether each vertical edge section 15, as shown in FIG. 3 per se, is actually inserted into the space between the two terminal strips 1a, 1b up to the point of contact with the screw bolt 8, because it is also from the center of the post 1 further away, the vertical edge section 15 is still securely gripped by the opposing pressure webs 14.
FIGS. 1-3 The embodiment according to FIGS. 1-3 is characterized by particular simplicity in manufacture and assembly, especially since no further fittings and parts are required, since the post 1 is formed directly from a pair of terminal strips 1 a, 1 b.
