Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fence bracket for fixing a Zaungitters to a post, in particular for the attachment of roll-up wireframe fences, in which vertically, horizontally and / or diagonally extending rods are firmly connected at their intersection points.
  • the fence bracket described has the advantage that it can be fastened particularly securely to a fence post due to the combination of a C-shaped bracket body with a closure element.
  • the closure element prevents namely that the clip body - for example, by high load or improper manipulation - unintentionally withdrawn forward from the fence post or can be demolished. Solving the Rather, fence bracket initially requires a targeted removal of the closure element.
  • a screw or gluing for the attachment of the closure element to the arms of the bracket body, there are various possibilities, such as a screw or gluing. Particularly preferred is a (typically reversible) latching attachment. This is achieved, for example, if at least one arm of the clamp body has a recess on the outside, in which a hook projection of the closure element can engage. The closure element can then simply connect by snapping with the clip body and optionally also non-destructively solve this again.
  • both arms of the clamp body on the outside such depressions, can engage in the corresponding (typically mutually mirror-image) projections of the closure element.
  • the aforementioned depression on the arms of the clamp body can in particular be designed as a groove into which a correspondingly shaped elongated hook projection can securely engage. It is particularly preferred in this case if the channel at one or both ends does not pass up to the edge of the outer surface of the arm in which it is located. In this case, a seated in the gutter hook projection can not slip out of the channel along this, since he previously abuts the end of the channel. Furthermore, there is a more appealing look, since the channel is not recognizable from the side.
  • the arms of the bracket body may have recesses into which corresponding projections on the inside of the closure element can engage (the "inside" of the closure element is defined as the side facing a fence post in the assembled state).
  • the arrangement of recesses and projections can also be reversed, ie projections on the bracket body can engage in recesses of the closure element. The mutual intervention results Positive locking and thus a defined seat of the closure element on the bracket body.
  • At least one projection may optionally be arranged on the inside of the closure element, which contacts an inner surface defined by the C-shape of the clip, for example an inner circle delimited by the C-shape. In the mounted state of the fence bracket, this projection is then supported on the associated fence post and thus provides additional stability and tension of the closure element.
  • the mounting bearing has longitudinal slots in the arms of the clamp body, through which a wire of a Zaungitters can be guided mer Economicss to the inside of the middle part of the Klam.
  • the staple body can then be slipped onto a fence post, which fixes the fence wire between the post and staple body.
  • one longitudinal slot is formed in each of the two arms of the clamp body.
  • a bulge extending in the axial direction of the fence bracket (that is to say in the mounted state parallel to a fence post) is advantageously provided on the inner side of the central part which extends in the mounted state for receiving (vertical) fence-side bars.
  • the mounting bearing on a groove on the outside of the central part, which serves to receive (at least) a wire of a Zaungitters. Since the channel is located on the outside of the bracket body, it can first be attached to the post and then fixed the fence mesh in its groove.
  • the above-mentioned channel can be designed for example by an open-topped undercut so that they alone already hold a fence mesh can (similar to a hook hook). Furthermore, however, the mounting bearing can also have a fixing device for attaching a clamp bracket over said channel. An in-the-gutter fence wire can then be held in place with this clamp bracket fixed to the bracket body.
  • the above-mentioned clip bracket fixing device may include a threaded hole for receiving a screw or a snap fit into which a complementarily formed clip bracket may be engaged.
  • the invention comprises a fence system with posts and a fencing grid, which is attached to the post with at least one fence bracket of the type described above.
  • the channel may be formed on the outside of the central part as an undercut groove.
  • a fence wire inserted in the groove is then secured by the undercut against inadvertent leaving of the groove. If the open passage in the groove is formed narrower than the wire thickness, it can even be achieved that the wire can only be removed by targeted manipulation.
  • the invention further relates as a separate, independent product a staple body for a fence bracket of the type described above.
  • a staple body is an independently marketable product, which can be used in combination with matching closure elements as a fence bracket according to the invention.
  • the staple body is in cross-section C-shaped with a central part and two ends attached thereto arms with which he can embrace a fence post.
  • the clamp body on a mounting bracket for supporting a Zaungitters, which may be located in particular on the central part of the bracket body.
  • the core of the invention performing fence bracket 1000 includes, in particular from FIG. 4 recognizable, again two main components, namely a clamp body 210 and a closure element 130th
  • the staple body 210 for example, made of a plastic by injection molding is in cross-section substantially C-shaped with a middle part M and two end thereto attaching arms A.
  • the staple body 210 can therefore be snapped as a clip on the round fence post P1 from the front, wherein the Arm A temporarily expand due to their elasticity.
  • With appropriate coordination of the dimensions of the clamp body 210 is advantageously sitting under slight pressure on the post P1.
  • radially and / or axially extending webs of small height may be provided on the inside of the clamp body 210 in order to compensate for tolerances in the post diameter.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 clasp-shaped closure member 130 by snap fit to the arm ends of the bracket body 210 attached.
  • the arms A of the bracket body 210 have for this purpose on their outer sides grooves 211, in which hook projections 132 of the closure element 130 can engage. Since the grooves 211 do not go to the edge, they fix the closure element 130 against a displacement in the gutter direction.
  • the closure member 130 prevents the fence bracket 2000 from being unintentionally or unauthorizedly pulled forwards off the fence post, as the closure member 130 prevents spreading of the arms of the bracket body.
  • the arms A of the bracket body further have slot-shaped recesses 212 at the outermost end, in which an inwardly projecting web 133 of the closure element 130 can engage to additionally secure the seat of the closure element by positive engagement.
  • the above-mentioned webs 133 of the closure element 130 are further dimensioned so that they are supported in the assembled state of the fence bracket 1000 on the associated post P1 and thereby provide additional stability and tension of the closure element 130.
  • the closure element 130 thus allows an overall tolerance compensation with respect to the thickness of the posts P1.
  • the clamp body 210 has a holding device 215.
  • the holding device 215 comprises two aligned slots 215 which are inserted in the arms A of the bracket body 210 in the longitudinal direction of the arms. Through these slots horizontally extending bars of grid mats G can be performed before the clamp body 210 is clamped on a fence post P1. After this clamping the Gitterstabmatten G are then fixed between the bracket body 210 and the fence post P1.
  • a clearing or bulge 217 on the inside of the middle part M can be seen which extends radially beyond the inner surface of the clamp body 210 defined by the C-shape (here circular).
  • the bulge 217 extends in the axial direction of the bracket body 210, ie in the direction of an inserted post or perpendicular to the plane in FIG. 4 , It provides space for vertical (in the post direction) extending bars. Due to the width of the bulge 217 can thereby vary the exact position of these vertical bars in a certain range, so that when setting up a fence tolerances can be compensated.
  • FIGS. 9 to 16 show a second fence system according to the invention with a second embodiment of a fence bracket 2000.
  • the associated second bracket body 110 differs from the first bracket body 210 only by the formation of the attachment bearing for grid mats.
  • the attachment of a clamping element 130 is, however, unchanged by means of a groove 111 and a recess 112 in the arms A of the bracket body 110 possible, so that it does not need to be discussed again in detail.
  • the mounting of the bracket body 110 includes a rectangular, extending in the axial direction of the bracket body 110 groove 118 on the outside of the middle part M, which is bounded laterally by two webs 119 and can be inserted into the vertical bars of a grid mat.
  • a situation is shown in which the two terminal vertical bars of different double rod lattice mats G, G 'lie in the channel 118.
  • only a single vertical rod of a grid mat can be stored in the channel 118.
  • a rotated by 90 ° groove for receiving horizontal bars could be provided.
  • the projections 120 protruding beyond the plane of the bracket body 110 on one side serve to position horizontal bars.
  • a lattice bar located in the channel 118 is fixed in this channel by means of a clip bracket 150.
  • the clip bracket 150 may be formed as a stamped and bent metal part that covers the channel 118. Through a central hole 151 of the clip bracket 150, the latter can be fastened to the bracket body 110 by means of a screw (not shown).
  • the bracket body has this in the mounted state with the hole 151 aligned bore 116 through which said screw can be performed.
  • a hexagonal recess is preferably formed, in which a nut for receiving the screw can be inserted in a rotationally secure manner.
  • a bore corresponding to the aforesaid bore 116 can also be provided in the other embodiments of the clamp body in order to additionally fix it, if necessary, by means of a screw on a fence post.
  • FIG. 17 shows in perspective views a third embodiment of a staple body 310, again the mechanism of a groove 311 and a slot-shaped recess 312 for attachment of a clamping element 130 has remained unchanged.
  • the mounting bearing 315 comprises in the clamp body 310 a transversely (or alternatively: parallel) to the fence post axis extending groove 318, in which a wire of a grid mat G can be inserted.
  • the grid mat can then with the help of clip brackets 350 or 450, as in the FIGS. 18 and 19 20 and 21 are fixed in the groove 318.
  • brackets 350, 450 are advantageously accomplished by a snap fit (similar to the closure member 130) in which hook projections on the ends of the brackets 350, 450 in grooves 316 on the bracket body 310 engage.
  • the exact position of the clamp bracket is variable along the grooves 316, in order to avoid any standing in the way Zaunstäben can.
  • FIGS. 22 and 23 show a fourth embodiment of a clamp body 410, in which the mounting bearing 415 is formed as a transversely extending to the axial direction, open at the top groove 418 for receiving a Zaungitterdrahtes.
  • said fence wire may be a tension wire extending in the longitudinal direction of the fence (ie horizontally).
  • the upwardly open channel or groove 418 is further formed undercut by a projection 419 is arranged funnel-shaped inwardly on its opening side inwardly.
  • the fourth bracket body 410 corresponds to the embodiments described above, so that its further features need not be discussed again.
  • FIGS. 24 and 25 show a fifth embodiment of a clamp body 510.
  • This is substantially similar to the above-described clamp body 410 formed, ie, it has a mounting bearing 515 with a groove 518, on which an inner projection 519 is formed.
  • the clamp body 510 on the inside of the middle part M on a bulge 517, from which vertical bars of a fence and / or bulges of a fence post can be added.
  • FIGS. 26 to 30 is the use of the fence bracket according to the invention (here the example of the first fence bracket 1000) shown in combination with various non-circular fence posts, such as a round post P2 with a write-off, a flattened post P3, a flattened post P4 with bulge, and an oval post P5.
  • the fence bracket can also be used in conjunction with numerous other post sections, optionally with the geometry and dimensions of the fence bracket adapted accordingly.
  • the fence bracket 1000 according to the invention can also accommodate the tension wire SD of a fence grid.
