This invention relates to an improved fabricated fence, and has for its primary object the provision of a fence which may be constructed to include standardized sections each of which being so formed as to possess I maximummechanical strengthand durability and which may be formed from standard materials at low manufacturing expense.
vAnother object of the invention resides in a fabricated fence section of the above character wherein the various parts of the fence section are united through welding for thepurpose of producing an extremely rigid or inflexible construction fully capable of withstanding thestresses and strains of practical use.
A further object of the invention rests inthe provision of improved connecting means between the various adjacent sections 2 of thefence, by means of which said sections may be securely connected in various positions of alignment or angular relationship with respect to each other,'the connect ing means being of a standardized construction and adaptable throughout all positions of angular relation between adjacent-fence sections.
With these and other objects in view as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists in thenovel features of construction, combinations of elements and arrangements of parts hereinafter to be more fully described and pointed out inrthe appended claims.
1 In the accompanying drawings:
Figure l is a side elevation of a fence formed in accordance with the present invention, I
Figure 2 is an enlarged top plan View of the fence, disclosing a pair of adjoining sections,
Figure 3 is a side elevation of a connector utilized in uniting the fence sections,
Figure 4 is a horizontal sectional view showing the connecting members in positions to unite intersecting fence sections, 7
Figure 5 is a perspective view of one of the connectors, V
Figure 6 is a horizontal sectional view through a slightly'modified form of connector, H a Figure 7 is a side elevation of the connector disclosed in Figure 6, 'f
Figure 8 isa perspective view of aportion of the fencerbody. v
Referring more particularly to the drawings the numeral 1 designates a section of a fabricated fence formed in accordance with the present invention. A plurality of such sections are, of course, used iniconnection with a complete line of fencing, but? since such sectionsvare duplicates, a, detail dfiscriptioniofzone section will'suifi'ce for E1 o In the preferred embodiment'of'the in vention each section is formed to include at its opposite ends a, pair of transversely spaced vertically extending rods2, to which are welded horizontally extending, transversely spaced upper and lower sets of longitudinally'extending brace rods 8, thefends" of the 'Qlatter being welded as at at to the upright postrods 2. Between the brace rods 3 I-provide angula'rlyextending,sets of cross rods 5, which have'their intersec ing portions'welded to; each other and also welded to the rods 2 and 3 where the cross rods contact or engage with the rods 2 and 3L It will be seen that by using standard metallicrods and by arranging and connecting the same in the manner illustrated and described, I am enabled to produce' an ex tremely rigid and durable fence section at a comparatively low cost, of superior strength and one fully capable of conforming to the needs and exigencies of fence con struction. If desired the upper ,endsof the cross rods 5 may beterminated above the a brace rods 3 and sharpened or pointed, as disclosed, to discourage one from endeavoring to climb over the fence; The spacing between the cross rods 5 is proportioned so as to prevent a person of normal size from crawling between the openings in vthe fence.
To unite the various sections of the fence I have'provided a 'connectordisclosed particularlyin Figures 2 to 5 'inclusive. The connector consists of duplicate sections 6 of the type shown in'Fig'ure 5/ Each section includes a casting or forging 7 having one surface thereof recessed as indicated at 8 and provided with spaced vertical apertures 9. One end of the casting body 7 is provided with spaced vertical grooves adapted to register with corresponding grooves provided in a cap piece 10, which grooves are adapted to receivethe upright post rods'2. Fasten ing screws 11 pass through the cap pieces or sections 10 and are threaded into openings formed in the casting bodies 7 By tighten- I ing the screws 11 it will be seen that the connectors will be frictionally and firmly secured in a removable manner to the post rods 2 at any desired position thereon. The complemental portions of the castings 7 are then united by means of bolts 12, which pass through one or the other of the sets of verticalfapertures 9. or through'both sets,,as the case may be. v 1
I This construction lends itself readily to the connecting of adjoining fence sections when such sections are in relative longitudinal alignment, as shown in Figure 2. In addition to this, however, the connection has the advantage of permitting of the ready assembling ofv the fence sections in relatively angular positions of association. An extreme condition has been shown in Figure a wherein the connectors are employed for uniting intersecting fence sections, or sections arranged at an angle of ninety degrees with respect to each other. In this form of the invention the bolt l2 is passed through the openings 9 provided in the outer portions f the body 7 0f ai 'conn to pr ng avery secure union without involving the necessity of employing special fastening means or fittings. j l i V In Figures '6 and 7 a slightly modified form of coupling has been disclosed but .wherein substantially the same principles are present. In this form of the invention the coupling consists of main body sections 13, provided with complemental planer surfaces 14, which are formed with registering apertures and adapted for the reception of aIsing ef St ng lt 1. The body se0- tions lS-are united to the upright posts 2' means of removable clamping sections 16:, the latter being held in place by threaded bolts 17. v
The lower ends of the post rods 2'may be mbedded. in a connec or foundation as ndicated at 18, although in practicing the invention such a foundation may not be pro.- vided, since the posts are capable of being driven directly into the ground and are of sufiicient length to retain the fence sections in stabilized positions,
In view of the foregoing it will be seen that thepresent invention provides a simple and improved type of structural metal fence which may be readily adapted to fencing requirements generally and has for to be the preferred forms of the present invention, never-the-less it will be understood that various changes may be made in the construction of the fence from time to time from the specific forms above described and disclosed without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope thereof as such invention has been defined in'the following claims.
What is claimed is:
1. A fabricated fence comprising a pair of transversely spaced upstanding post rods at each end thereof, upper and lower sets of longitudinally extending horizontally disposed and transversely spaced'bra ce rods having the ends thereof connected with said post rods,.and a plurality of angularly extending relatively intersecting cross rods arranged between the post and brace rods and welded to said post and brace rods at points where the latter are in engagement With the cross rods. i
2. A fabricated fence section comprising a pair of transversely spaced vertically extending post rods arranged at the opposite ends of said section,upper and lower pairs of horizontally disposed transversely spaced and longitudinally extending brace rods having the ends thereof welded to said post rods, and a plurality of angularly extending relatively intersecting cross rods arranged between said post and brace rods and weldedthereto, relatively parallel cross f rods being arranged in the same vertical plane. v
In testlmony whereof I affix my signature.
