Benefits of technology

[0008]Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a modular fence device that has simple components, is weather resistant, is easy to assemble, and has a stable structure after assembly.

Problems solved by technology

1. The fence device 100 is mostly installed outdoors. Since the frames 3 are made of plastic, which is not ideal for such outdoor settings, the fence device 100 has poor weather resistance so that after a short period of time following installation, the fence device 100 may get damaged. Ultimately, this renders the rods 4 rocky and unstable.
2. Since the top and bottom ends of the rods 4 are inserted respectively into the frames 3 of the upper and lower beams 1, 2 in a press-fittingmanner, assembly of the rods 4 requires strenuous effort and is therefore difficult and strenuous. Further, if adjustment of the positions of the rods 4 is necessary after assembly, this task is also difficult and laborious.

Embodiment Construction

[0018]Referring to FIGS. 3 to 7, a modular fence device 200 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown to comprise an upper beam 10, a lower beam 20, a plurality of spaced-apart rods 30, a plurality of upper and lower spacers 40, 40′, two upright posts 50, two upper cap members 60, and two lower cap members 70.

[0019]The upper beam 10 extends along a longitudinal direction (X), and includes an upper rail member 11 that is disposed at a bottom side of the upper beam 10 and that extends along the length of the upper beam 10, and a handrail 12 connected to and disposed above the upper rail member 11 and extending along the length of the upper beam 10. The upper rail member 11 is inverted U-shaped in cross section, defines an upper groove 111 that extends along the length of the upper rail member 11 and that opens downwardly, and has two opposite upper longitudinal rail walls 110 bounding two opposite sides of the upper groove 111, two upper spacer retainers ...

Abstract

A modular fence device includes a plurality of spaced-apart rods connected between upper and lower beams, a plurality of upper spacers each disposed between top ends of two adjacent ones of the rods, and a plurality of lower spacers each disposed between bottom ends of the two adjacent ones of the rods. Each of the upper and lower beams includes a rail member defining a groove and having two opposite longitudinal rail walls, two spacer retainers extending longitudinally on the respective longitudinal rail walls, and two rail tracks extending above the spacer retainers. The top and bottom ends of each rod respectively extend into the grooves in the rail members of the upper and lower beams, and have a pair of slide protrusions projecting transversely and oppositely therefrom and engaging respectively and slidably the rail tracks of the rail members of the upper and lower beams.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]This invention relates to a structural element, more particularly to a modular fence device.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a currently available fence device 100 includes spaced-apart upper and lower beams 1, 2, two frames 3 each disposed inside a respective one of the upper and lower beams 1, 2, a plurality of spaced-apart rods 4 mounted between the frames 3, and a plurality of upper and lower spacers 5. The upper beam 1 has an upper longitudinal groove 101 with a bottom opening, and a pair of upper engaging grooves 102 adjacent to the bottom opening. The lower beam 2 has a lower longitudinal groove 201 with a top opening, and a pair of lower engaging grooves 202 adjacent to the top opening. The frames 3 are inserted respectively into the upper and lower grooves 101, 201. Each frame 3 has a U-shaped cross section, and has a horizontal plate 301, and two side plates 302 connecte...
