Patent Document 1

[0005] Another example of a fence mounting member is shown in Figure 8, which includes a first fitting 101 and a second fitting 102 that clamp onto the fence surface of the fence member 100 from the front and back, respectively. The vertical wires 3 and horizontal wires 4 are clamped by the vertical wire holding parts 104 and horizontal wire holding parts 105 formed on the first fitting 101 and the second fitting 102, respectively, and the fence member is connected by combining the first fitting 101 and the second fitting 102 with a bolt 103. [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0006] However, conventional fence mounting components use bolts 103 to fix the first fitting 101 and the second fitting 102, as described above. However, these bolts 103 are small, around M6 size, which poses a problem as it makes the bolt fastening process cumbersome. Furthermore, because such small bolts are used, they are frequently lost, causing stress for workers during installation. In addition, depending on the fence installation environment, it may be difficult or impossible to insert the bolts 103 through the through-holes of the first fitting 101 and tighten them using tools.

[0007] Furthermore, the first fitting 101 and the second fitting 102 were formed by bending metal plates, which presented a problem in that they were difficult to hold against the fence surface when fastening the bolts 103.

[0008] Furthermore, there was the problem that it was difficult to reduce costs by using bolt 103. In addition, extra spare bolts were delivered to account for the possibility of bolt loss, which also contributed to the difficulty in reducing costs.

[0009] Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above matters, and aims to provide a fence mounting member that allows for easy connection of adjacent fence members without the need for bolt fastening, thereby reducing costs. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] The fence mounting member according to the present invention is a fence mounting member for connecting adjacent fence members when fence members having a fence surface formed by joining a plurality of vertical wires and a plurality of horizontal wires in a grid pattern are installed continuously along posts erected at predetermined intervals, and comprises a first mounting member assembled from the surface of the fence surface and a second mounting member assembled from the back surface of the fence surface, wherein the first mounting member comprises a first main body portion that abuts against the vertical wires and a pair of side pieces erected from the first main body portion, the side pieces are spaced apart in the extending direction of the horizontal wires and are provided with horizontal wire retaining claws that engage with the horizontal wires.

[0011] In the fence mounting member according to the present invention, the side piece preferably has an engaging claw that engages with the second mounting member.

[0012] In the fence mounting member according to the present invention, the first mounting member is provided with a receiving portion for holding the second mounting member, the receiving portion is provided with a bottom portion erected from the first main body portion and a locking piece erected from the tip of the bottom portion, and it is preferable that the locking piece extends inclined with respect to the first main body portion.

[0013] In the fence mounting member according to the present invention, the second mounting member preferably comprises a second main body portion that abuts against the vertical wire and a pair of fitting pieces erected from the second main body portion, wherein the fitting pieces have fitting holes that engage with fitting projections formed on the side pieces.

[0014] In the fence mounting member according to the present invention, it is preferable that a plurality of fitting holes are formed in the fitting piece so as to be symmetrical in the direction of extension of the vertical wire.

[0015] In the fence mounting member according to the present invention, it is preferable that the first mounting member includes a tool groove extending in the extending direction of the horizontal wire member, and the second mounting member has a tool passing hole formed at a position corresponding to the tool groove.

[0016] The summary of the above invention does not list all the features necessary for the present invention, and sub-combinations of these feature groups can also be inventions.

Effects of the Invention

[0017] According to the present invention, since the fence members can be assembled without using bolts for connection, the connection work can be easily performed, and cost reduction can be achieved.

Let's 8 is a view for explaining a conventional fence mounting member.

[0021] As shown in FIG. 1, the fence mounting member 8 according to the present embodiment is used for constructing the fence 7, and is a member for connecting adjacent fence members 2 to each other when continuously installing the fence members 2 along the columns 1 erected at a predetermined interval.

[0022] As an example, support column 1 is made of a round steel pipe, with its lower end embedded in a foundation such as mortar and erected in the ground. Multiple support columns 1 are installed along the site boundary at predetermined intervals. Support column 1 is not limited to a round steel pipe; it may also be a pipe with a polygonal cross-section, or made of metal such as stainless steel alloy or aluminum alloy. Furthermore, the method of erecting support column 1 is not limited to embedding it in a foundation such as mortar; it may also be erected by conventionally known methods such as driving the support column 1 directly into the soil surface or by installing a base plate on a concrete surface.

[0023] The fence member 2 comprises a fence surface 5 formed by joining multiple vertical wires 3 and multiple horizontal wires 4 to each other in a grid pattern, and a furring strip 6 positioned at the upper end of the fence surface 5. The furring strip 6 is integrally formed with the fence surface 5, and after joining the vertical wires 3 and horizontal wires 4 in a grid pattern, the upper end of the fence surface 5 is bent into a roughly circular shape to form a cylindrical shape. The shape of the furring strip 6 is not limited to a cylindrical shape and may be set as appropriate; for example, it may be a rectangular shape. Furthermore, although the case where the furring strip 6 is formed at the upper end of the fence surface 5 has been described, the furring strip 6 may also be formed at the lower end of the fence surface 5. The horizontal wires 4 may be joined to the inner circumference of the circular part, or to the outer circumference of the circular part.

[0024] The vertical wires 3 and horizontal wires 4 are, for example, made of iron wire, and their respective intersections arranged in a grid pattern are joined by welding. It is preferable that the vertical wires 3 and horizontal wires 4 be coated with zinc plating or electrostatic powder coating using polyester resin as a base coat to prevent corrosion due to rust, etc. Furthermore, in this specification, the surface of the fence surface 5 is defined as the side where the vertical wires 3 protrude more than the horizontal wires 4, as shown in Figure 2, and the back surface of the fence surface 5 is defined as the side where the horizontal wires 4 protrude more than the vertical wires 3.

[0025] As shown in Figure 2, the fence mounting member 8 according to this embodiment connects the intermediate portions of the fence surface 5, and connects adjacent fence members 2 by a first mounting member 10 that is assembled from the front surface of the fence surface 5 and a second mounting member 20 that is attached from the back surface.

[0026] The appearance of the first mounting member 10 is shown in Figures 5(a)-(d). The view in Figure 5(a) corresponds to the orientation of the fence mounting member 8 attached to the fence surface 5, as seen from the back surface of the fence surface 5, as shown in Figure 2. That is, in the view in Figure 5(a), the left-right direction is parallel to the extension direction of the horizontal wire 4, and the up-down direction is parallel to the extension direction of the vertical wire 3. In the following description of the first mounting member 10, the left-right direction, up-down direction, and depth direction are defined as the directions of the arrows shown in Figure 5(d).

[0027] The first mounting member 10 comprises a first main body portion 11, a pair of side pieces 12, 12, and a receiving portion 16. The first mounting member 10 is, for example, formed integrally by press-forming a metal plate such as a steel plate or a stainless steel plate. Furthermore, the first mounting member 10 may be coated with zinc plating or electrostatic powder coating using polyester resin as a base paint to prevent corrosion due to rust, etc.

[0028] When attached to the fence surface 5, the first main body portion 11, together with the second main body portion 21 of the second mounting member 20 (described later), clamps the vertical wire 3. The first main body portion 11 is formed in the shape of a rectangular plate as seen in Figure 5(a).

[0029] The pair of side pieces 12, 12 are formed by bending both the left and right ends of the first main body 11 in one direction in the depth direction. The vertical dimension H12 of the side piece 12 from the first main body 11 is preferably set to correspond to the wire diameter of the vertical wire 3, as shown in Figure 4. The pair of side pieces 12, 12 are set so that the width dimension W12 between the opposing faces is greater than the distance between the vertical wires 3 located at the adjacent ends of adjacent fence members 2, 2, as shown in Figure 3. Each side piece 12 is formed with a horizontal wire holding claw 13, an engaging claw 14, and a fitting projection 15.

[0030] The transverse wire retaining claw 13 is a hook-shaped claw portion that extends in the depth direction from the upper part of the side piece 12 and has a transverse wire retaining groove 13a that opens downward. The transverse wire retaining groove 13a is formed as a semicircular groove when viewed from the left or right direction. The diameter of the semicircular transverse wire retaining groove 13a is formed to be larger than the wire diameter of the transverse wire 4. In addition, the groove depth of the transverse wire retaining groove 13a is formed to be deeper than the radius of the wire diameter of the transverse wire 4.

[0031] The engaging claw 14 is a roughly L-shaped claw portion that extends in the depth direction from approximately the center of the side piece 12 in the vertical direction and has an engaging groove 14a that opens upward. The engaging groove 14a has a slope 14b on the side away from the first main body portion 11. The dimension W14 from the first main body portion 11 to the lower end of the slope 14b is set to a size corresponding to the sum of the wire diameter of the vertical wire 3 and the plate thickness of the second main body portion 21 of the second mounting member 20, which will be described later, as shown in Figure 4. Preferably, the slope 14b is formed so that the dimension W14 expands as it goes upward.

[0032] Furthermore, a gap is formed in the vertical direction between the tip of the hook-shaped transverse wire retaining claw 13 and the tip of the L-shaped engaging claw 14, and the gap dimension G14 is formed to be larger than the wire diameter of the transverse wire 4.

[0033] The fitting projection 15 is located at the lower part of the side piece 12 and protrudes outward from the side piece 12 in the left-right direction. The fitting projection 15 is formed to a size corresponding to the fitting hole 22a of the second mounting member 20, which will be described later. For example, the fitting projection 15 is preferably formed by combining the upper part of a quarter-sphere and the lower part of a semi-cylindrical shape. Alternatively, the fitting projection 15 is preferably formed by a so-called half-punching process, in which a part of the side piece 12 is punched out in the thickness direction to create a protrusion.

[0034] The receiving portion 16 is formed by bending a part of the lower end of the first main body portion 11, which is approximately in the center in the left-right direction, and its cross-sectional shape when viewed from the left-right direction is approximately L-shaped. The receiving portion 16 includes a bottom surface portion 16a that rises from the lower end of the first main body portion 11 and a locking piece 16b formed by bending the tip of the bottom surface portion 16a. A gap is formed between the receiving portion 16 and the side pieces 12 on both the left and right sides, and the gap dimension G12 is set so that the vertical wires 3, 3 at the adjacent ends of adjacent fence members 2, 2 can be placed, as shown in Figure 3.

[0035] The bottom portion 16a is provided with a hole 16c, which is a roughly elliptical through-hole. The hole 16c drains rainwater and other liquids that accumulate in the bottom portion 16a.

[0036] The locking piece 16b is formed at a predetermined angle inclined with respect to the first main body portion 11. The dimension W16 from the first main body portion 11 to the lower end of the locking piece 16b is set to a size corresponding to the sum of the wire diameter of the vertical wire 3 and the plate thickness of the second main body portion 21 of the second mounting member 20, which will be described later, as shown in Figure 4. It is preferable that the locking piece 16b is formed so that the dimension W16 expands as it goes upwards.

[0037] Furthermore, it is preferable that a tool groove 17 is formed in the first main body portion 11 at a position corresponding to the tool through hole 24 of the second mounting member 20, which will be described later. The tool groove 17 is a groove that extends in the left-right direction and is formed so that the tip of a tool such as a flathead screwdriver can be inserted into it. It is preferable that the tool groove 17 is formed by punching out a part of the first main body portion 11 in the thickness direction, and it is preferable that the left and right ends of the punched-out portion are not separated from the first main body portion 11.

[0038] The external appearance of the second mounting member 20 is shown in Figures 6(a)-(d). The view in Figure 6(a) corresponds to the orientation of the fence mounting member 8 attached to the fence surface 5, as seen from the back surface of the fence surface 5, as shown in Figure 2. That is, in the view in Figure 6(a), the left-right direction is parallel to the extension direction of the horizontal wire 4, and the up-down direction is parallel to the extension direction of the vertical wire 3. In the following description of the second mounting member 20, the left-right direction, up-down direction, and depth direction are defined as the directions of the arrows shown in Figure 6(d).

[0039] The second mounting member 20 comprises a second main body 21 and a pair of fitting pieces 22, 22. The second mounting member 20 is, for example, formed integrally by press-forming a metal plate such as a steel plate or a stainless steel plate. In addition, the second mounting member 20 may be coated with zinc plating or electrostatic powder coating using polyester resin as a base paint to prevent corrosion due to rust, etc.

[0040] When attached to the fence surface 5, the second main body portion 21, together with the first main body portion 11 of the first mounting member 10, clamps the vertical wire 3. The second main body portion 21 is formed in the shape of a rectangle with its length in the left-right direction as seen in Figure 6(a). The second main body portion 21 is formed such that its vertical dimension S21 is smaller than the gap dimension G13 between the tip of the horizontal wire holding claw 13 of the first mounting member 10 and the tip of the locking piece 16b.

[0041] The pair of fitting pieces 22, 22 are formed by bending both the left and right ends of the second main body 21 in one direction in the depth direction. The pair of fitting pieces 22, 22 are formed such that the width dimension W22 between the opposing faces corresponds to the distance between the outward-facing faces of the pair of side pieces 12, 12 of the first mounting member 10. The vertical dimension H22 of the fitting piece 22 from the second main body 21 is set to a size corresponding to the sum of the wire diameter of the vertical wire 3 and the plate thickness of the first main body 11, as shown in Figure 4. In addition, fitting holes 22a are formed in each of the fitting pieces 22.

[0042] The fitting hole 22a is a through hole opened at a position corresponding to the fitting projection 15 of the first mounting member 10, and is formed in a rectangular shape, for example. At least one fitting hole 22a is formed in each fitting piece 22, preferably two. When two fitting holes 22a are formed in one fitting piece 22, it is preferable that they be formed at equidistant from the end face in the vertical direction so that they are symmetrical in the vertical direction. With such fitting holes 22a, the second mounting member 20 can be assembled to the first mounting member 10 regardless of its orientation in the vertical direction.

[0043] Furthermore, the second main body portion 21 is provided with a pair of engagement holes 23, 23 and a tool pass-through hole 24.

[0044] The pair of engagement holes 23, 23 are through holes drilled near both the left and right ends of the second main body portion 21, and are positioned to correspond to the pair of engagement claws 14, 14 of the first mounting member 10. The engagement holes 23 are formed in a rectangular shape extending in the vertical direction, allowing the engagement claws 14 to pass through.

[0045] The tool through-hole 24 is a through-hole drilled approximately in the center of the second main body portion 21 and is positioned to correspond to the tool groove 17 of the first mounting member 10. The tool through-hole 24 is sized to allow the shaft of a tool such as a flathead screwdriver to pass through, and as an example, it is formed as a rectangle extending in the left-right direction.

[0046] Next, a method for connecting fence members using the fence mounting member 8 according to this embodiment will be described.

[0047] First, as shown in Figure 7, the first mounting member 10 is positioned on the surface of the fence surface 5. At this time, the pair of side pieces 12, 12 are positioned to straddle the adjacent vertical wires 3, 3 at the adjacent ends of adjacent fence members 2, 2. Also, the horizontal wire holding grooves 13a, 13a are positioned to engage with the horizontal wires 4, 4 of adjacent fence members 2, 2. Since the groove depth of the horizontal wire holding groove 13a is formed to be deeper than the radius of the wire diameter of the horizontal wire 4, the first mounting member 10 can be hooked onto the horizontal wire 4, and will not fall even if the worker releases their hand from the first mounting member 10, allowing the fence construction work to be carried out efficiently.

[0048] Next, the pair of engagement holes 23, 23 of the second mounting member 20 are passed through the engagement claws 14, 14 of the first mounting member 10, and the second mounting member 20 is assembled to the first mounting member 10 from the back surface of the fence surface 5. At this time, the pair of engagement holes 23, 23 are positioned to correspond to the pair of engagement claws 14, 14, and each engagement hole 23 is formed as a rectangle extending vertically, allowing the engagement claws 14 to pass through. Therefore, the second mounting member 20 can be easily assembled to the first mounting member 10 by moving it in the depth direction of the fence surface 5 without tilting it at a specific angle relative to the first mounting member 10. After passing through the engagement claws 14, 14, the second mounting member 20 stops when the second main body 21 comes into contact with the vertical wires 3, 3.

[0049] Next, the second mounting member 20 is slid downward to engage the fitting holes 22a, 22a with the fitting projections 15, 15 of the first mounting member 10. At this time, as shown in Figure 4, the engaging claws 14, 14 have an inclined surface 14b at the top that slopes away from the vertical wire 3, allowing the second mounting member 20 to slide smoothly. Also, since the upper part of the fitting projection 15 is formed as a quarter-spherical surface, the second mounting member 20, which is slid from above, can be smoothly fitted. Furthermore, since the locking piece 16b of the first mounting member 10 is inclined at the top that slopes away from the vertical wire 3, interference between the second main body 21 and the locking piece 16b can be prevented when the second mounting member 20 is slid downward.

[0050] The second mounting member 20 stops sliding when the bottom surface 16a of the receiving portion 16 comes into contact with the second main body portion 21, completing the attachment of the second mounting member 20 to the first mounting member 10. Since the lower part of the fitting projection 15 is formed in a semi-cylindrical shape, even if the assembled second mounting member 20 is slid upward, the lower edge of the fitting projection 15 catches on the edge of the fitting hole portion 22a, preventing the second mounting member 20 from falling off.

[0051] According to the fence mounting member 8 of this embodiment, the pair of side pieces 12, 12 hold the vertical wires 3, 3 at the adjacent ends of adjacent fence members 2, 2 so that even if a force is applied to the fence members 2, 2 causing them to separate in the left-right direction, the gap between the fence members 2, 2 can be appropriately maintained. In addition, the first main body portion 11 and the second main body portion 21 sandwich the vertical wires 3, 3, and the second main body portion 21 is locked in the depth direction by the locking piece 16b of the first mounting member 10. Therefore, even if a force is applied to the fence members 2, 2 causing them to separate in the depth direction, displacement of the fence members 2, 2 in the depth direction can be prevented.

[0052] As described above, the fence mounting member 8 according to this embodiment allows adjacent fence members 2, 2 to be connected without performing tasks such as bolt fastening using tools, thus making the connection work easier. Furthermore, since there is no need to fasten bolts and there is no risk of losing bolts, it is possible to reduce costs by reducing the number of bolts used.

[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the fence mounting member 8 can also be separated from the fitted first mounting member 10 and second mounting member 20 using a tool such as a flathead screwdriver.

[0054] To separate the fitted first mounting member 10 and the second mounting member 20, first insert a tool such as a flathead screwdriver into the tool hole 24 of the second mounting member 20 and abut the tip of the tool against the tool groove 17 of the first mounting member 10. Next, using the tip of the tool abutting against the tool groove 17 as the pivot point, bring the shaft of the tool into contact with the edge of the tool hole 24 to create the point of application, and push the tool upward. The fitted fitting projection 15 or fitting hole 22a will elastically deform and the fitting will be released, and the second mounting member 20 will be able to slide upward relative to the first mounting member 10.

[0055] Thus, the fence mounting member 8 according to this embodiment can separate the fitted first mounting member 10 and the second mounting member 20 without applying a large force using the lever principle.

[0056] In this embodiment, the first mounting member 10 and the second mounting member 20 for the fence were described in terms of being manufactured by press-forming a metal plate such as a steel plate. However, the materials and manufacturing methods for the first mounting member 10 and the second mounting member 20 are not limited to these. They may also be manufactured by cutting metal materials or by injection molding synthetic resins. It is clear from the claims that such modified or improved forms may also be included within the technical scope of the present invention. [Explanation of Symbols]
