Description

DOMAINE TECHNIQUE DE L'INVENTIONTECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

La présente invention a trait à un poteau de clôture du type constitué d'un piquet et d'une embase, complémentaire du piquet et destinée à être au moins partiellement enterrée.The present invention relates to a fence post of the type consisting of a pole and a base complementary to the pole and intended to be at least partially buried.

Il est connu de longue date d'utiliser de tels poteaux pour clôturer des emprises ferroviaires, routières ou autoroutières, ainsi que pour les entourages de propriétés privées, d'espaces verts, de terrains d'agriculture, de réserves de chasse, de golfs ou encore de parkings.It has been known for a long time to use such posts to fence off railway, road or motorway rights-of-way, as well as for private property, green space, agricultural land, game reserve, golf course or more parking.

De tels poteaux sont, de fabrication, prévus pour l'accrochage et le maintien de fils ou de grillages de clôture, commercialisés en rouleaux.Such posts are, of manufacture, provided for the attachment and maintenance of son or fencing wire, marketed in rolls.

ARRIÈRE-PLAN TECHNOLOGIQUE DE L'INVENTIONBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Les piquets de tels poteaux sont réalisés chacun sous la forme d'un profilé tubulaire métallique de section droite quadrangulaire ou en C, l'une au moins des parois dudit piquet présentant sur son axe longitudinal des linguets disposés à intervalle régulier, en saillie par rapport à ladite paroi, lesdits linguets, destinés à l'accrochage et au maintien des fils ou du grillage de clôture, étant obtenus par prédécoupage et préformage de la tôle métallique au cours du profilage du piquet.The stakes of such poles are each made in the form of a metal tubular section of quadrangular or C cross section, at least one of the walls of said post having on its longitudinal axis latches regularly spaced, protruding from each other. at said wall, said pawls for fastening and holding wire or fence wire, being obtained by precutting and preforming of the metal sheet during the profiling of the stake.

L'embase destinée à coopérer avec un piquet du type précité est également réalisée sous la forme d'un profilé tubulaire métallique de section droite quadrangulaire ou en C, dont les dimensions extérieures sont complémentaires des dimensions intérieures de celles de la section du piquet, ou inversement, afin que la partie inférieure du piquet puisse être emmanchée autour de la partie supérieure de l'embase, ou inversement emmanchée dans ladite partie supérieure de l'embase.The base intended to cooperate with a stake of the aforementioned type is also made in the form of a metal tubular section of quadrangular or C cross section, whose outer dimensions are complementary to the internal dimensions of those of the post section, or conversely, so that the lower portion of the stake can be fitted around the upper part of the base, or vice versa fitted into said upper portion of the base.

Une telle embase comprend en outre au moins une plaque, encore dénommée pelle ou bêche, soudée extérieurement sur l'une de ses parois, en un point éloigné des extrémités de la partie profilée, cette plaque appartenant à la partie enterrée de l'embase afin d'assurer le parfait ancrage de cette dernière dans le sol.Such a base further comprises at least one plate, also called shovel or spade, welded externally on one of its walls, at a point remote from the ends of the profiled part, this plate belonging to the buried part of the base so that to ensure the perfect anchoring of the latter in the ground.

La plaque appartenant à la part de l'embase qui sera enterrée déborde très largement la partie profilée de l'embase et elle peut être construite selon des formes variées, par exemple rectangulaire, carrée ou trapézoïdale, la petite base d'une pelle trapézoïdale étant alors, dans ce dernier cas particulier, celle des deux bases du trapèze qui pénètrera le sol la première.The plate belonging to the part of the base that will be buried extends far beyond the profiled portion of the base and can be constructed in various forms, for example rectangular, square or trapezoidal, the small base of a trapezoidal excavator being then, in this last particular case, that of the two bases of the trapezium which will penetrate the ground first.

Les piquets et les parties profilées des embases de tels poteaux de clôture sont en général réalisés à partir d'une tôle d'acier et ils sont galvanisés.The stakes and the profiled parts of the bases of such fence posts are generally made from a sheet of steel and they are galvanized.

Leur forme la plus générale est celle d'un profilé à section droite en C de sorte qu'ils peuvent être fabriqués par profilage à chaud ou, plus généralement, par profilage à froid.Their most general form is that of a C-section straight section so that they can be manufactured by hot forming or, more generally, by cold profiling.

L'avantage des divers poteaux précités est qu'ils peuvent être aisément posés et qu'ils ne demandent à cette fin qu'un simple marteau pneumatique.The advantage of the various poles mentioned above is that they can be easily laid and they require for this purpose a simple pneumatic hammer.

Par exemple, on repère la ligne ou les lignes selon lesquelles de tels poteaux doivent être disposés, on place un cordon selon cette ligne ou ces lignes et, de place en place, on plante les embases en les battant dans le sol, à l'aide d'un marteau pneumatique qui frappe l'extrémité supérieure de chaque embase, en prenant soin de disposer la plaque de ladite embase dans l'alignement de la clôture.For example, we identify the line or lines according to which such posts must be arranged, we place a bead along this line or lines and, from place to place, we plant the bases by beating them in the ground, to the using a pneumatic hammer that strikes the upper end of each base, taking care to arrange the plate of said base in the alignment of the fence.

On emmanche ensuite les piquets dans les embases ou autour des embases et, le cas échéant, on ajoute aux piquets des jambes de force, notamment aux extrémités et aux angles des poteaux ainsi posés.The stakes are then inserted into the bases or around the bases and, where appropriate, the struts of the struts are added, in particular at the ends and at the angles of the posts thus laid.

Il suffit ensuite d'installer les fils ou le grillage destinés à constituer la clôture en les plaçant sous les linguets des piquets emboîtés sur leurs embases respectives, puis de rabattre les linguets ainsi utilisés afin d'accrocher et de maintenir lesdits fils ou ledit grillage.It is then sufficient to install the wires or the mesh intended to constitute the fence by placing them under the latches of the stakes nested on their respective bases, and fold down the latches thus used to hang and maintain said son or said mesh.

La clôture est ainsi achevée.The fence is thus completed.

Le brevet français publié sous le n° 2.739.657 décrit un poteau de clôture du type où le piquet est emmanché autour de la partie supérieure de l'embase tandis que le brevet européen publié sous le n° 1.584.776 décrit un poteau de clôture du type où le piquet est inséré à l'intérieur de la partie profilée supérieure de l'embase.The French patent published under number 2739657 describes a fence post of the type where the stake is fitted around the upper part of the base while the European patent published under No. 1584776 describes a fence post of the type where the post is inserted inside the upper profiled portion of the base.

Les embases, pour avoir été enterrées assez profondément dans le sol, avec au surplus leurs plaques, ne peuvent être extraites du sol qu'en employant des engins de terrassement conséquents.The bases, for having been buried deep enough in the ground, with the surplus of their plates, can be extracted from the ground only by employing consequent earth-moving machines.

Il est en revanche beaucoup plus aisé de séparer des piquets de leurs embases.On the other hand, it is much easier to separate stakes from their bases.

Aussi, pour éviter que, lors d'actes de vandalisme, les piquets ne soient arrachés des embases dans lesquelles ou autour desquelles ils sont emmanchés, il est parfois prévu que l'une au moins des parois du piquet et/ou l'une au moins des parois de la partie profilée supérieure de l'embase comprennent des moyens anti-déboîtement assurant un meilleur coincement du piquet sur l'embase.Also, to prevent vandalism, the stakes are torn from the bases in which or around which they are fitted, it is sometimes expected that at least one of the walls of the stake and / or one to less of the walls of the upper profiled portion of the base comprise anti-disengagement means ensuring better jamming of the stake on the base.

Ces moyens anti-déboîtement sont réalisés sous la forme d'un ou de plusieurs bossages, généralement hémisphériques, formés en relief sur l'une au moins des parois du piquet et de l'embase, le relief de tels bossages étant dirigé vers la paroi de l'autre élément, embase ou piquet, qui leur fait face.These anti-dislocation means are made in the form of one or more bosses, generally hemispherical, formed in relief on at least one of the walls of the stake and the base, the relief of such bosses being directed towards the wall the other element, base or stake, which faces them.

Si la prévision de tels bossages hémisphériques pour coincer un piquet sur une embase rend plus difficile l'arrachage du piquet, il ne le rend toutefois pas irréalisable dans le cas où les vandales persévèrent et utilisent des outils leur permettant de soulever les piquets jusqu'à les dégager des embases.While the provision of such hemispherical bosses to wedge a post on a base makes it more difficult to pull the stake, it does not make it unrealistic in the case where the vandals persevere and use tools to lift the stakes up to release them from the bases.

DESCRIPTION GÉNÉRALE DE L'INVENTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

La présente invention se propose de remédier à cet inconvénient et, à cet effet, elle a pour objet un poteau de clôture correspondant aux deux constructions types illustrées dans l'un et l'autre des deux brevets précités, poteau de clôture dans lequel ses moyens de coincement sont notablement améliorés.The present invention proposes to remedy this drawback and, for this purpose, it relates to a fence post corresponding to the two typical constructions illustrated in both of the aforementioned two patents, fence post in which its means jamming are significantly improved.

Ainsi, un tel poteau de clôture se caractérise en ce que ses moyens de coincements sont réalisés sur celle(s) des parois de l'embase qui vient(viennent) en contact avec celle(s) des parois du piquet comportant des linguets, sous la forme de linguets répartis en saillie par rapport à ladite (auxdites) paroi(s) et selon le même intervalle que celui séparant les linguets du piquet, les crevés existant sous les linguets réalisés dans le piquet étant aptes à recevoir sans jeu ou avec très peu de jeu les linguets de l'embase, ou inversement les crevés existant sous les linguets réalisés dans l'embase étant aptes à recevoir sans jeu ou avec très peu de jeu les linguets du piquet, l'extrémité libre des linguets de l'embase étant en toute hypothèse orientée à l'opposé de l'extrémité libre des linguets formés sur le piquet.Thus, such a fence post is characterized in that its means of jamming are made on that (s) of the walls of the base which comes (come) in contact with that (s) of the walls of the stake having pawls, under the form of pawls spaced projecting relative to said (said) wall (s) and at the same interval as that separating the pawls of the post, the punctures existing under the pawls made in the stake being able to receive without play or with very little play the pawls of the base, or conversely the punctures existing under the pawls made in the base being adapted to receive without play or with very little play the latches of the stake, the free end of the latches of the base being in any case oriented away from the free end of the latches formed on the stake.

Selon une construction préférentielle, le poteau de clôture étant supposé ancré dans le sol, l'extrémité libre des linguets formés sur le piquet est orientée vers le haut et l'extrémité libre des linguets formés sur la partie profilée supérieure de l'embase est orientée vers le bas.According to a preferred construction, the fence post being assumed anchored in the ground, the free end of the latches formed on the stake is oriented upwards and the free end of the latches formed on the upper profiled portion of the base is oriented down.

Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré, afin de verrouiller parfaitement le piquet sur son embase, la partie profilée supérieure de ladite embase comporte au moins deux linguets constituant autant de moyens de verrouillage.According to a preferred embodiment, in order to perfectly lock the stake on its base, the upper profiled portion of said base comprises at least two latches constituting as many locking means.

Dans la variante selon laquelle les profilés tubulaires constituant le piquet et l'embase ont une section droite en C, les linguets du piquet et de l'embase sont avantageusement formés au moins dans la paroi dite âme centrale qui est opposée à l'ouverture de ce C.In the variant according to which the tubular sections constituting the post and the base have a cross-section at C, the latches of the stake and the base are advantageously formed at least in the so-called central core wall which is opposed to the opening of this C.

Dans la variante selon laquelle le piquet est emmanché à force autour de la partie supérieure de l'embase, les linguets du piquet et de l'embase sont avantageusement prévus dans des positions relatives telles que, lors du verrouillage du piquet sur l'embase, l'extrémité inférieure du piquet vienne simultanément en butée contre le bord supérieur de la plaque de l'embase.In the variant according to which the post is force-fitted around the upper part of the base, the latches of the post and the base are advantageously provided in relative positions such that, when the post is locked on the base, the lower end of the stake comes simultaneously abutting against the upper edge of the plate of the base.

Naturellement, la présente invention a également pour objet une embase permettant de construire, à l'aide d'un piquet, un poteau de clôture répondant aux caractéristiques précitées.Naturally, the present invention also relates to a base for constructing, using a stake, a fence post meeting the above characteristics.

DESCRIPTION DES MODES DE RÉALISATION PRÉFÉRÉS DE L'INVENTIONDESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

La figure 1 représente en coupe transversale un poteau de clôture connu de l'art antérieur, poteau de clôture dans lequel les profilés complémentaires constitutifs du piquet et de la partie profilée de l'embase sont donnés à titre d'exemple comme étant l'un et l'autre du type à section droite en C.The figure 1 represents in cross section a fence post known from the prior art, fence post in which the complementary constituent profiles of the stake and the profiled portion of the base are given by way of example as being one and the other of the cross-sectional type in C.

Dans cet exemple, l'emmanchement est réalisé en emboîtant la partie supérieure de l'embase 1 dans la partie inférieure du piquet 2.In this example, the fitting is made by fitting the upper part of the base 1 in the lower part of the stake 2.

Dans une construction améliorée de cet exemple, et toujours de façon connue, on sait que l'on peut prévoir un ou plusieurs bossages sensiblement hémisphériques sur la face extérieure 3 de l'âme 4 de l'embase 1 et/ou sur la face intérieure 5 de l'âme 6 du piquet 2.In an improved construction of this example, and always in a known manner, it is known that one or more substantially hemispherical bosses may be provided on the outer face 3 of the core 4 of the base 1 and / or on the inside face 5 of the soul 6 of the stake 2.

Il est clair que, dans le cas inverse où le piquet doit être inséré en partie supérieure de l'embase, les bossages sont alors prévus en relief de la face extérieure de l'âme du piquet et/ou en relief de la face intérieure de l'âme de l'embase.It is clear that, in the opposite case where the stake must be inserted in the upper part of the base, the bosses are then provided in relief of the outer face of the core of the post and / or in relief of the inner face of the post. the soul of the base.

Toujours dans le cas particulier où le piquet est réalisé sous la forme d'un profilé métallique à section droite en C, tel qu'il est illustré aux figures 1 à 3, il est connu de prévoir des linguets 7 en saillie, lesquels linguets sont obtenus par prédécoupage et préformage de la tôle au cours du profilage du piquet 2.Still in the particular case where the post is made in the form of a C-section straight metal section, as illustrated in FIGS. Figures 1 to 3 it is known to provide protruding latches 7, which latches are obtained by precutting and preforming the sheet during the profiling of stake 2.

Ces linguets sont le plus souvent prévus en relief exclusivement le long de l'âme 6 dudit piquet, en étant espacés les uns des autres d'un intervalle régulier.These latches are most often provided in relief exclusively along the core 6 of said stake, being spaced apart from each other by a regular interval.

Le rôle des linguets 7 est de recevoir des fils de clôture ou les fils horizontaux d'un grillage de clôture distribué en rouleau.The role of the latches 7 is to receive fence son or horizontal son of a fence fence distributed in roll.

Lorsque les fils sont placés sous les linguets 7, lesquels sont de ce fait prévus le plus souvent de telle sorte que leurs extrémités libres 8 soient orientées vers le haut, lesdits linguets, du moins ceux qui sont utilisés, sont rabattus en direction de l'âme 6 et la clôture est ainsi installée.When the threads are placed under the latches 7, which are therefore most often provided so that their free ends 8 are oriented upwards, said latches, at least those used, are folded towards the soul 6 and the fence is thus installed.

Dans la description qui va suivre de l'invention, il a été choisi à titre d'illustration cette même construction de profilés à section droite en C pour le piquet et pour l'embase.In the following description of the invention, it has been chosen by way of illustration that same construction of C-section straight sections for the stake and for the base.

Il a également été choisi d'illustrer l'invention selon son type le plus couramment rencontré dans lequel l'emboîtement du piquet et de la partie supérieure profilée de l'embase est réalisé en emmanchant à force la partie inférieure du piquet autour de la partie supérieure de l'embase.It has also been chosen to illustrate the invention according to its most commonly encountered type in which the interlocking of the stake and the profiled upper part of the base is achieved by forcing the lower part of the stake around the part. top of the base.

Cette variante d'emboîtement a en effet pour avantage de permettre de repérer simultanément la longueur de l'emboîtement ainsi réalisé par l'amenée de l'extrémité inférieure du piquet 2 en butée contre le bord supérieur de la plaque de l'embase conforme à l'invention, telle qu'elle va maintenant être décrite.This embodiment of interlocking has the advantage of allowing to identify simultaneously the length of the socket thus formed by the supply of the lower end of the stake 2 in abutment against the upper edge of the plate of the base according to the invention, as will now be described.

Il est toutefois évident que l'homme de l'art n'aurait aucune difficulté à réaliser des variantes de l'invention qui va être ainsi décrite en remplaçant les profilés en C par des profilés tubulaires fermés, en particulier par des profilés à section droite rectangulaire ou carrée, et/ou en remplaçant l'emboîtement obtenu par emmanchement du piquet 2 autour de l'embase par un emmanchement consistant à insérer la partie inférieure du piquet 2 dans la partie supérieure de l'embase.It is obvious, however, that one skilled in the art would have no difficulty in making variants of the invention which will thus be described by replacing the C-sections with closed tubular sections, in particular straight sections. rectangular or square, and / or replacing the socket obtained by fitting the stake 2 around the base by a fitting consisting of inserting the lower part of the stake 2 in the upper part of the base.

L'embase 9 du poteau de clôture 10 conforme à l'invention se compose de façon connue d'un profilé 11 à section droite en C sur l'âme 12 duquel est soudée une plaque 13, ici une plaque trapézoïdale dont les deux petits côtés 14 et 15 sont symétriquement inclinés de 4° par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du profilé 11 ; la plaque 13 est soudée en partie sensiblement centrale dudit profilé, de sorte à laisser une certaine distance, par exemple 30 cm, entre la petite base 16 de la plaque 13 et l'extrémité inférieure 17 de la partie profilée de l'embase 9 et par exemple 40 cm entre la grande base 18 de la plaque 13 et l'extrémité supérieure 19 de la partie profilée de l'embase 9 ; la plaque en elle-même a une hauteur voisine de 28 cm et une grande base d'une longueur voisine de 21 cm ; ainsi, l'embase 9 a une hauteur voisine de 100 cm, dimension déterminée entre les deux extrémités 17 et 19 de sa partie profilée, cette dernière étant constituée d'un C de 4,6 cm de largeur, soit la distance séparant les faces externes de ses deux ailes 20, de 4,1 cm de profondeur, soit la distance séparant les faces externes de l'âme 12 et des retours 21 qui, à la suite de deux pliages à 45°, prolongent les ailes 20 et délimitent entre leurs deux extrémités en vis-à-vis l'ouverture 22 du profilé en C, d'une largeur de 15 mm ; l'épaisseur de la tôle d'acier constituant la partie profilée de l'embase 9 est de 3 mm, de même que l'épaisseur de la plaque 13 soudée sur ladite partie profilée.The base 9 of the fence post 10 according to the invention consists in a known manner of a profile 11 with a C-shaped cross section on the core 12 of which is welded a plate 13, here a trapezoidal plate whose two short sides 14 and 15 are symmetrically inclined by 4 ° with respect to the longitudinal axis of the profile 11; the plate 13 is welded in a substantially central part of said profile, so as to leave a certain distance, for example 30 cm, between the small base 16 of the plate 13 and the lower end 17 of the profiled part of the base 9 and for example 40 cm between the large base 18 of the plate 13 and the upper end 19 of the profiled portion of the base 9; the plate itself has a height of about 28 cm and a large base with a length of about 21 cm; thus, the base 9 has a height of about 100 cm, dimension determined between the two ends 17 and 19 of its profiled part, the latter consisting of a C 4.6 cm wide, the distance between the outer faces of its two wings 20, 4.1 cm deep, the distance separating the outer faces of the core 12 and the returns 21 which, following two bends at 45 °, extend the wings 20 and delimit between their two ends vis-à-vis the opening 22 of the profile at C, with a width of 15 mm; the thickness of the steel sheet forming the profiled portion of the base 9 is 3 mm, as is the thickness of the plate 13 welded to said profiled portion.

Afin d'assurer une parfaite complémentarité de formes et de dimensions du profilé 11 de l'embase 9 détaillées ci-dessus et du profilé 31 en C constituant le piquet 2, dont l'épaisseur de la tôle d'acier est de 2 mm, la distance séparant les faces externes des deux ailes 23 dudit profilé 31 est de 5,1 cm et la distance séparant les faces externes de l'âme 6 et des retours 24 dudit profilé 31 est de 4,6 cm, l'ouverture 25 délimitée par les extrémités en vis-à-vis des deux retours 24 étant de 15 mm, donc égale à l'ouverture de la partie profilée de l'embase 9.In order to ensure a perfect complementarity of shapes and dimensions of the profile 11 of the base 9 detailed above and of the profile 31 in C constituting the stake 2, the thickness of the steel sheet is 2 mm, the distance separating the external faces of the two wings 23 of said profile 31 is 5.1 cm and the distance separating the external faces of the core 6 and the returns 24 of said profile 31 is 4.6 cm, the opening 25 delimited by the ends facing the two returns 24 being 15 mm, thus equal to the opening of the profiled portion of the base 9.

Accessoirement, et toujours dans le but d'assurer une meilleure complémentarité des formes et des dimensions des profilés 11 et 31, ces derniers peuvent être dotés d'un bossage longitudinal, respectivement 32 et 33, formé en partie centrale de leur âme et tourné vers leur ouverture, respectivement 22 et 25.Incidentally, and always in order to ensure a better complementarity of the shapes and dimensions of the profiles 11 and 31, the latter may be provided with a longitudinal boss, respectively 32 and 33, formed in the central part of their core and turned towards their opening, respectively 22 and 25.

Conformément à l'invention, les moyens de coincement du piquet 2 sur la partie profilée supérieure de l'embase 9 sont réalisés sur celle(s) des parois de ladite embase qui vient en contact avec celle(s) des parois du piquet comportant des linguets, à savoir l'âme 12 dans l'exemple représenté et décrit ci-dessus.According to the invention, the wedging means of the post 2 on the upper profiled portion of the base 9 are made on that (s) of the walls of said base which comes into contact with that (s) of the walls of the stake having pawls, namely the core 12 in the example shown and described above.

Les moyens de coincement sont eux aussi réalisés sous la forme de linguets 26 en saillie par rapport à l'âme 12 et répartis sur cette âme selon le même intervalle que celui séparant les linguets 7 du piquet 2.The wedging means are also made in the form of pawls 26 protruding from the core 12 and distributed on this core at the same interval as that separating the pawls 7 of the post 2.

Dans un mode préféré de réalisation, cet intervalle est de 101,60 mm.In a preferred embodiment, this interval is 101.60 mm.

Les crevés 27 existants sous les linguets 7 du piquet 2 sont aptes à recevoir, sans jeu ou avec très peu de jeu, les linguets 26 de l'embase 9.The punctured 27 existing under the latches 7 of the stake 2 are adapted to receive, without play or with very little play, the latches 26 of the base 9.

A cette fin, la largeur (et respectivement la longueur) des crevés 27 est donc très légèrement supérieure à la largeur (et respectivement la longueur) des linguets 26.To this end, the width (and respectively the length) of the punctures 27 is therefore very slightly greater than the width (and respectively the length) of the pawls 26.

En outre, toujours conformément à l'invention, l'extrémité libre 28 des linguets 26 est orientée à l'opposé de l'extrémité libre 8 des linguets 7 formés sur le piquet 2. Autrement dit, dans l'exemple représenté et le plus couramment usité où les linguets 7 du piquet 2 sont tournés vers le haut (le poteau de clôture étant supposé ancré dans le sol), les linguets 26 de l'embase 9 sont tournés vers le bas. Ces linguets 26, et notamment leurs extrémités libres 28 émergeant de l'âme 12 du profilé 11 en C, on comprend que, lorsque le piquet a été emmanché autour de la partie profilée supérieure de l'embase 9, on ne peut ensuite dégager le piquet de l'embase, les talons 29 des linguets 7 venant buter contre l'extrémité libre 28 des linguets 26 après que ceux-ci ont repris, à la manière de ressorts, leur position en saillie sur l'extérieur relativement à l'âme 12.In addition, still in accordance with the invention, the free end 28 of the latches 26 is oriented opposite the free end 8 of the latches 7 formed on the stake 2. In other words, in the example shown and the most commonly used where the latches 7 of the stake 2 are turned upwards (the fence post being assumed anchored in the ground), the latches 26 of the base 9 are turned downwards. These latches 26, and in particular their free ends 28 emerging from the core 12 of the profile 11 in C, it is understood that when the stake has been fitted around the upper profiled portion of the base 9, it can not be released then. stake of the base, the heels 29 of the latches 7 abutting against the free end 28 of the latches 26 after they have resumed, in the manner of springs, their projecting position on the outside relative to the soul 12.

Dans un mode de réalisation préférée, les linguets 7 inclinés de fabrication sur l'âme 6 d'un angle compris entre 2° et 5° débordent de ladite âme 6 d'environ 4,5 mm et les linguets 26 formés dans l'âme 12 de l'embase 9 débordent de ladite âme 12 d'environ 3 mm.In a preferred embodiment, the latches 7 inclined manufacturing on the core 6 at an angle of between 2 ° and 5 ° protrude from said core 6 by about 4.5 mm and the latches 26 formed in the core 12 of the base 9 protrude from said core 12 by about 3 mm.

Sachant que la partie profilée dite supérieure de l'embase 9 est d'une hauteur voisine de 40 cm, on constituera les moyens anti-déboîtement sous la forme de deux associations de linguets 7, 26 d'orientations inverses, voire de trois associations.Knowing that the so-called upper profile portion of the base 9 is of a height close to 40 cm, the anti-dislocation means will be constituted in the form of two combinations of latches 7, 26 of opposite orientations, or even three associations.

Enfin, afin de repérer la longueur de l'emboîtement du piquet autour de la partie profilée supérieure de l'embase, et afin également de s'assurer du parfait verrouillage du piquet à la suite de la coopération des linguets d'orientations contraires, on fera avantageusement en sorte que les positions relatives des linguets 7 sur le piquet 2 et des linguets 26 sur l'embase 9 soient telles que, à l'instant du verrouillage, l'extrémité inférieure 30 du profilé 31 constituant le piquet 2 vienne simultanément en butée contre le bord supérieur 18 de la plaque 13.Finally, to identify the length of the interlocking of the stake around the upper profiled portion of the base, and also to ensure the perfect locking of the post as a result of the cooperation of the pawls orientations contrary, it is advantageously that the relative positions of the latches 7 on the stake 2 and latches 26 on the base 9 are such that, at the moment of locking, the lower end 30 of the section 31 constituting the stake 2 simultaneously comes into abutment against the upper edge 18 of the plate 13.

Des modifications de détail du domaine des équivalents techniques peuvent être apportées au poteau de clôture décrit ci-dessus, sans que l'on sorte pour cela du cadre de la présente invention. Outre le fait que l'emboîtement piquet/embase pourra être inverse de celui qui a été décrit, et le fait que les profilés pourraient avoir des sections autres qu'une section en C, on peut prévoir des formes variées pour les linguets 26 de l'embase 2, soit plates comme représentées aux figures 4 à 8 et 10, soit arrondies et notamment partiellement cylindriques ; le but sera toujours d'avoir l'extrémité libre 28 de tels linguets 26 qui déborde l'âme du profilé 11 afin de constituer des butées pour les talons 29 des linguets 7.Changes in the detail of the field of technical equivalents may be made to the fence post described above, without departing from the scope of the present invention. In addition to the fact that the interlocking stake / base may be the opposite of that which has been described, and the fact that the profiles could have sections other than a section C, one can provide various forms for the latches 26 of the 'base 2, flat as represented Figures 4 to 8 and 10 , being rounded and in particular partially cylindrical; the goal will always be to have the free end 28 of such latches 26 which protrudes beyond the web of the profile 11 so as to constitute stops for the heels 29 of the latches 7.
