Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a fence having a fence body attached to posts. [Background technology]

[0002] A known fence body is provided with lattice members. The lattice members extend horizontally, are arranged vertically, and are held by vertical frames. A known fence of this type is one in which the main body, which is the fence body, is made up of small bars, upper bars, lower bars, vertical bars, upper and lower frames, and vertical frames (see Patent Document 1).

[0003] In the main body of the conventional fence described in Patent Document 1, the small bars are connected to the vertical frame by caulking in the thickness direction of the main body, and the vertical frame is slidably fitted to the vertical bar. In addition, the upper and lower frames are connected to the vertical frame by screws in the vertical direction, and the upper and lower bars and the upper and lower frames are connected by sliding. In this way, in the conventional fence, the connecting direction and the connecting direction are different when connecting the small bars to the vertical frame and when connecting the upper and lower frames to the vertical frame, and it is necessary to move the main body during assembly in accordance with the connecting direction and the connecting direction, respectively, to perform the connecting work and the connecting work. Therefore, the assembly work of the main body is time-consuming, and there is a risk that the workability of the assembly of the main body is affected. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0009] An embodiment of the fence of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The fence of this embodiment is an independent partition body that is installed outdoors and is installed in an upright state at an installation location to partition an outdoor space. The installation location may be, for example, the ground or the top of a wall.

[0010] Fig. 1 is a front view showing a fence 1 installed at an installation location G in this embodiment, and shows a schematic configuration of the fence 1 as seen from one side of a space partitioned off by the fence 1. In Fig. 1, the portion of the fence 1 that is embedded in the installation location G is indicated by a dashed line. As shown in the figure, the fence 1 stands on its own at the installation location G and extends along the installation location G. The fence 1 also extends in an extension direction at the installation location G and is installed between a space on one side and a space on the other side that sandwich the installation location G. At the installation location G of the fence 1, the space is divided by the fence 1 into a space on one side and a space on the other side that sandwich the fence 1 and the installation location G.

[0011] The fence 1 comprises a plurality of posts 2 erected at an installation location G, and a plurality of fence bodies 3 supported by the posts 2. The lower portions of the posts 2 are buried in the installation location G, and the posts 2 are arranged in the vertical direction R above the installation location G. The posts 2 are installed in an upright state at the installation location G, protruding above the installation location G. The posts 2 are also located on one side of the fence body 3 in the thickness direction, and the fence body 3 is attached to the posts 2. The multiple posts 2 are installed at intervals in the extension direction of the fence 1. The multiple fence bodies 3 are located on the other side of the fence body 3 in the thickness direction relative to the multiple posts 2, and are installed lined up in order in the extension direction of the fence 1.

[0012] When the fence 1 installed at the installation location G is viewed from the front, the direction that is up and down is the up-down direction R, and the direction that is left and right is the left-right direction S. In Fig. 1, the up-down direction R is the vertical direction, and the left-right direction S is the horizontal direction. The thickness direction of the fence main body 3 is the thickness direction of the fence main body 3 installed at the installation location G. In addition, the thickness direction of the fence main body 3 is the front-to-back direction (depth direction) when the fence 1 and the fence main body 3 installed at the installation location G are viewed from the front, and in Fig. 1, it is the horizontal direction perpendicular to the left-right direction S. In this way, the directions related to the fence 1 are specified by the directions when it is installed at the installation location G.

[0013] Here, the extension direction of the fence 1 is the left-right direction S, and the fence 1 extends in the left-right direction S. The multiple posts 2 are installed at intervals from each other in the left-right direction S. The multiple fence main bodies 3 are adjacent to each other in the left-right direction S, span the multiple posts 2, and are supported by the multiple posts 2. Adjacent fence main bodies 3 are connected to each other with their ends in the left-right direction S facing each other.

[0014] Fig. 2 is a front view showing the fence main body 3 of this embodiment. Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-sectional view showing the fence 1 of this embodiment, showing the fence 1 cut along line X1-X1 in Fig. 1. In Fig. 3, the lower portion of the post 2 is omitted. As shown in the figure, here, the fence 1 is installed between the land (site) on which the structure is located and the road, and separates the space on the site side from the space on the road side. Therefore, one side of the fence main body 3 in the thickness direction T is the site side, and the other side of the fence main body 3 in the thickness direction T is the road side. The fence 1 and the fence main body 3 are installed between the space on the site side and the space on the road side.

[0015] The fence main body 3 is located on the road side of the post 2, and is attached to the post 2 by upper and lower mounting fixtures 4, 5 (upper mounting fixture 4, lower mounting fixture 5). The lower mounting fixture 5 is fixed to the post 2 by a screw 5A, which is a fixing device. The lower end of the fence main body 3 is placed on the lower mounting fixture 5 and engaged with the lower mounting fixture 5. The upper mounting fixture 4 is fixed to the post 2 by a screw 4A, which is a fixing device, and engages the upper end of the fence main body 3. The fence main body 3 is held between the upper and lower mounting fixtures 4, 5, and is supported by the post 2 via the mounting fixtures 4, 5.

[0016] The fence main body 3 is a lattice unit extending in the extension direction of the fence 1 (left-right direction S), and has multiple lattice members 10. The lattice members 10 are horizontal lattice members and extend in the horizontal direction (left-right direction S). The multiple lattice members 10 are arranged side by side in the up-down direction R at intervals in the up-down direction R. The lattice members 10 are located in front of the fence 1 on the road side, and are arranged facing the road side.

[0017] Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing the fence main body 3 of this embodiment, showing a simplified shape of the fence main body 3. Moreover, since the multiple lattice members 10 lined up in the vertical direction R have the same configuration, the fence main body 3 shown in Fig. 4 is provided with only two lattice members 10. Figs. 5 and 6 are perspective views showing the components of the fence main body 3 when the fence main body 3 shown in Fig. 4 is disassembled.

[0018] As shown in the figure, the fence main body 3 has upper and lower furring strips 20, 30 (upper furring strip 20, lower furring strip 30), upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 (upper retaining member 40, lower retaining member 50), and multiple vertical bones 60, 70 (end vertical bones 60, middle vertical bones 70). The upper and lower furring strips 20, 30 are attached to the posts 2, respectively, and the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 are attached to the upper and lower furring strips 20, 30, respectively. The multiple vertical bones 60, 70 are joined to the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 and are held by the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50. The lattice material 10 is located between the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50, joined to the multiple vertical bones 60, 70, and supported by the multiple vertical bones 60, 70.

[0019] The upper and lower furring strips 20, 30 are hollow horizontal furring strips that extend laterally and are arranged spaced apart from each other in the up-down direction R. The upper furring strip 20 is located at the upper end of the fence main body 3 and is attached to the post 2 by an upper mounting fixture 4. The lower furring strip 30 is located at the lower end of the fence main body 3 and is attached to the post 2 by a lower mounting fixture 5. The furring strips 20, 30 also have accommodation grooves 21, 31 that accommodate the retaining materials 40, 50 and the ends of the vertical bones 60, 70, and a pair of receiving portions 22, 32 that are located at the openings of the accommodation grooves 21, 31 and receive the retaining materials 40, 50.

[0020] The storage grooves 21, 31 and the receiving portions 22, 32 extend in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction S) of the furring strips 20, 30, respectively. The storage groove 21 of the upper furring strip 20 is disposed facing downward and is open toward the bottom. The pair of receiving portions 22 of the upper furring strip 20 are located on both sides of the opening of the storage groove 21 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, protrude from the pair of groove walls of the storage groove 21 in a direction approaching each other, and face each other while being spaced apart. The storage groove 31 of the lower furring strip 30 is disposed facing upward and is open toward the top. The pair of receiving portions 32 of the lower furring strip 30 are located on both sides of the opening of the storage groove 31 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, protrude from the pair of groove walls of the storage groove 31 in a direction approaching each other, and face each other while being spaced apart.

[0021] The upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 are furring strip joining materials joined to the upper and lower furring strips 20, 30, and are arranged spaced apart from each other in the vertical direction R and extend horizontally. The retaining materials 40, 50 are joined and attached to the furring strips 20, 30, respectively, and are arranged along the furring strips 20, 30. The upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 are also upper and lower connecting materials (upper connecting materials, lower connecting materials) that connect multiple vertical bones 60, 70 to the upper and lower furring strips 20, 30, and are joined and fixed to the vertical bones 60, 70, respectively. The vertical bones 60, 70 and the lattice material 10 are located between the upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50, and are also located between the upper and lower furring strips 20, 30.

[0022] The retaining members 40, 50 have abutment pieces 41, 51 that abut against the vertical bones 60, 70, a plurality of through holes 42, 52 formed in the abutment pieces 41, 51, protruding pieces 43, 53 protruding from the abutment pieces 41, 51, and a plurality of notches 44, 54 formed in the protruding pieces 43, 53. The abutment pieces 41, 51 are vertical pieces arranged along the vertical direction (up-down direction R). The abutment piece 41 of the upper retaining member 40 protrudes upward from the protruding piece 43, and the abutment piece 51 of the lower retaining member 50 protrudes downward from the protruding piece 53. The through holes 42, 52 are provided at a plurality of positions in the abutment pieces 41, 51 at intervals in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction S) of the retaining members 40, 50, and penetrate the abutment pieces 41, 51 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3. The protrusions 43, 53 are protruding plate portions protruding from the abutment pieces 41, 51 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, and protrude from the abutment pieces 41, 51 toward one side (the side toward the post 2) and the other side (the opposite side of the post 2) in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3.

[0023] The protruding piece 43 of the upper retaining material 40 is connected to the lower edge of the abutting piece 41 and protrudes from the lower edge of the abutting piece 41. The protruding piece 53 of the lower retaining material 50 is connected to the upper edge of the abutting piece 51 and protrudes from the upper edge of the abutting piece 51. The cutout portions 44, 54 are cut-out portions of the protruding pieces 43, 53 that protrude from the abutting pieces 41, 51 toward the support 2, and are provided at multiple locations on the protruding pieces 43, 53 at intervals in the longitudinal direction of the retaining materials 40, 50. The cutout portions 44, 54 are also void portions in which the vertical bones 60, 70 are disposed, and are located on the support 2 side of the abutting pieces 41, 51. The through holes 42, 52 and the cutouts 44, 54 are formed in the retaining materials 40, 50 so as to be aligned in the longitudinal direction of the retaining materials 40, 50, and are located at both ends of the retaining materials 40, 50 in the longitudinal direction and at a middle portion between the both ends.

[0024] The upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 are inserted into the accommodation grooves 21, 31 of the upper and lower furring strips 20, 30 from their longitudinal ends, and are accommodated in the accommodation grooves 21, 31 (see FIG. 3). Inside the accommodation grooves 21, 31, the tips of the abutting pieces 41, 51 abut against the groove bottoms of the accommodation grooves 21, 31, and the protruding pieces 43, 53 abut against the pair of receiving portions 22, 32 of the furring strips 20, 30, respectively. The protruding pieces 43, 53 are received by the receiving portions 22, 32, and the retaining materials 40, 50 are held inside the accommodation grooves 21, 31. The protruding pieces 43, 53 are also engaged with the receiving portions 22, 32, and the retaining materials 40, 50 are attached to the accommodation grooves 21, 31 and the furring strips 20, 30.

[0025] The lattice material 10 has a front plate portion 11, abutment portions 12 that abut against the vertical bones 60, 70, and a plurality of through holes 13 formed in the abutment portions 12. The front plate portion 11 is disposed away from the vertical bones 60, 70 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3. The abutment portions 12 are vertical plate portions disposed along the vertical direction, and are positioned on the vertical bone 60, 70 side of the front plate portion 11, and are disposed between the front plate portion 11 and the vertical bones 60, 70. Here, the lattice material 10 has two abutment portions 12 that are spaced apart in the up-down direction R. The through holes 13 are provided at a plurality of positions in the abutment portions 12 at intervals in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction S) of the lattice material 10, and penetrate the abutment portions 12 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3. The through holes 13 are positioned between both ends of the lattice material 10 in the longitudinal direction and in the middle between both ends.

[0026] The lattice material 10 is joined and fixed to the vertical bones 60, 70, respectively, and is bridged across the multiple vertical bones 60, 70. The multiple vertical bones 60, 70 are hollow support materials (vertical support materials) extending vertically, and are arranged spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction S. The upper ends of the vertical bones 60, 70 are joined to and fixed to the upper retaining material 40. The lower ends of the vertical bones 60, 70 are joined to and fixed to the lower retaining material 50. The vertical bones 60, 70 are held by the upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 between the upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 and between the upper and lower furring strips 20, 30.

[0027] The multiple vertical bones 60, 70 consist of left and right end vertical bones 60 and at least one central vertical bone 70. The left and right end vertical bones 60 are located at both ends of the fence main body 3 in the left-right direction S, and the central vertical bone 70 is located between both ends of the fence main body 3 in the left-right direction S. Here, one central vertical bone 70 is provided on the fence main body 3. The central vertical bone 70 is located in the middle between both ends of the fence main body 3 in the left-right direction S, and is disposed between the left and right end vertical bones 60.

[0028] The vertical bones 60, 70 have vertical members 61, 71 located on the support 2 side of the retaining members 40, 50 and the lattice member 10, and cover members 6, 7 located on the support 2 side of the vertical members 61, 71 and attached to the vertical members 61, 71. The vertical members 61, 71 and the cover members 6, 7 extend in the longitudinal direction (up-down direction R) of the vertical bones 60, 70. In the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, the vertical members 61, 71 are located between the lattice member 10 and the cover members 6, 7, and the cover members 6, 7 are located between the vertical members 61, 71 and the support 2. The vertical members 61, 71 are formed in a groove shape that is open toward the support 2 side, and the inner parts of the vertical members 61, 71 are open toward the support 2 side.

[0029] The upper and lower ends of the vertical members 61, 71 are located on the post 2 side of the abutment pieces 41, 51 of the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50, and are arranged in the cutout portions 44, 54 of the retaining members 40, 50 to abut against the abutment pieces 41, 51. In this state, the ends of the vertical members 61, 71 are accommodated in the accommodation grooves 21, 31 (see FIG. 3) of the furring strips 20, 30, and are arranged along the abutment pieces 41, 51 inside the accommodation grooves 21, 31. In the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, the dimension of the vertical members 61, 71 is smaller than the distance between the abutment pieces 41, 51 and the receiving portions 22, 32 located on the post 2 side of the abutment pieces 41, 51. Therefore, the ends of the vertical members 61, 71 can be disposed between the receiving portions 22, 32 and the abutment pieces 41, 51 and inside the accommodating groove portions 21, 31 without processing the ends of the vertical members 61, 71.

[0030] The vertical bones 60, 70 and vertical members 61, 71 are located on one side (the post 2 side) of the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3 relative to the retaining members 40, 50 (contact pieces 41, 51) and the lattice member 10 (contact portion 12). The retaining members 40, 50 and lattice member 10 are located on the other side (the opposite side to the post 2) of the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3 relative to the vertical bones 60, 70 and vertical members 61, 71. The vertical members 61, 71 are disposed opposite the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 and lattice member 10 on the post 2 side of the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 and lattice member 10, and are in contact with the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 and lattice member 10 to be joined to the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 and lattice member 10.

[0031] The vertical members 61, 71 have opposing portions 62, 72 that face the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 and the lattice member 10, and openings 63, 73 provided at positions spaced from the opposing portions 62, 72 toward the support post 2. The opposing portions 62, 72, openings 63, 73, vertical members 61, 71, cover members 6, 7, and vertical bones 60, 70 are located on the support post 2 side of the retaining members 40, 50 and the lattice member 10 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3. In addition, in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, the opposing portions 62, 72 are located between the openings 63, 73 and the abutting pieces 41, 51 of the retaining members 40, 50, and between the openings 63, 73 and the abutting portions 12 of the lattice member 10, and face the abutting pieces 41, 51 of the retaining members 40, 50 and the abutting portions 12 of the lattice member 10.

[0032] The facing portions 62, 72 and the openings 63, 73 of the vertical members 61, 71 extend in the longitudinal direction (up-down direction R) of the vertical members 61, 71. In the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, the openings 63, 73 are located on the post 2 side of the facing portions 62, 72 and are open toward the post 2 side. The facing portions 62, 72 abut against the abutment pieces 41, 51 of the retaining members 40, 50 and the abutment portion 12 of the lattice member 10, and are exposed toward the post 2 side in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3 at the openings 63, 73. The openings 63, 73 are used for joining the facing portions 62, 72 to the retaining members 40, 50 (the abutment pieces 41, 51 here) and for joining the facing portions 62, 72 to the lattice member 10 (the abutment portion 12 here).

[0033] The cover materials 6, 7 are located on the support 2 side of the vertical members 61, 71 and the openings 63, 73, and are arranged between the upper and lower furring strips 20, 30. The cover materials 6, 7 cover the openings 63, 73 over the entire area between the upper and lower furring strips 20, 30 at the openings 63, 73. The openings 63, 73 of the vertical members 61, 71 are blocked by the cover materials 6, 7, and the vertical members 61, 71 and the cover materials 6, 7 form the vertical bones 60, 70 into a hollow shape. The cover materials 6, 7 cover and shield the openings 63, 73 of the vertical members 61, 71 and the insides of the vertical members 61, 71 (including the opposing parts 62, 72).

[0034] The opposing parts 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 have upper and lower retaining material joints 64, 74 and multiple lattice material joints 65, 75. The upper and lower retaining material joints 64, 74 are parts where the upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 are joined in the opposing parts 62, 72, and are located between the openings 63, 73 and the upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3. The lattice material joints 65, 75 are parts where the lattice material 10 is joined in the opposing parts 62, 72, and are located between the openings 63, 73 and the lattice material 10 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3. The upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 are joined to the upper and lower retaining material joints 64, 74 of the opposing parts 62, 72, and the lattice material 10 is joined to the lattice material joints 65, 75 of the opposing parts 62, 72. Here, each of the lattice members 10 is joined to two lattice member joints 65, 75 spaced apart in the up-down direction R of the opposing portions 62, 72.

[0035] The upper and lower retaining material joints 64, 74 have joint holes 66, 76 formed in the opposing portions 62, 72, respectively, and the multiple lattice material joints 65, 75 have joint holes 67, 77 formed in the opposing portions 62, 72, respectively. The joint holes 66, 67, 76, 77 are through holes for joints, and penetrate the opposing portions 62, 72 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, respectively. The upper and lower retaining material joints 64, 74 and the joint holes 66, 76 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the opposing portions 62, 72. The lattice material joints 65, 75 and the joint holes 67, 77 are located between the upper and lower ends of the opposing portions 62, 72 (between the joint holes 66, 76 of the upper and lower retaining material joints 64, 74), and are provided at multiple locations on the opposing portions 62, 72 at intervals in the longitudinal direction of the vertical members 61, 71.

[0036] The abutment pieces 41, 51 of the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 face the opposing parts 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 and abut against the opposing parts 62, 72. The through holes 42, 52 formed in the abutment pieces 41, 51 are aligned with the joint holes 66, 76 of the retaining member joints 64, 74 and overlap the joint holes 66, 76 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3. The abutment parts 12 of the lattice member 10 face the opposing parts 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 and abut against the opposing parts 62, 72. The through holes 13 formed in the abutment parts 12 are aligned with the joint holes 67, 77 of the lattice member joints 65, 75 and overlap the joint holes 67, 77 in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3.

[0037] The fence body 3 has upper and lower retaining material connectors 8A and multiple lattice material connectors 8B (see FIG. 3). Here, the retaining material connectors 8A and lattice material connectors 8B are rivets. The upper and lower retaining material connectors 8A are inserted through connector holes 66, 76 of the upper and lower retaining material joints 64, 74 and through holes 42, 52 of the upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50, joining the abutment pieces 41, 51 of the upper and lower retaining materials 40, 50 to the upper and lower retaining material joints 64, 74 of the opposing parts 62, 72. The abutment pieces 41, 51 and the retaining materials 40, 50 are joined to the opposing parts 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 at the retaining material joints 64, 74 by the retaining material connectors 8A. The lattice material connector 8B passes through the connection holes 67, 77 of the lattice material joints 65, 75 and the through hole 13 of the lattice material 10, and connects the abutting portion 12 of the lattice material 10 to the lattice material joints 65, 75 of the opposing portions 62, 72. The abutting portion 12 and the lattice material 10 are connected to the opposing portions 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 at the lattice material joints 65, 75 by the lattice material connector 8B.

[0038] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a procedure for joining the lattice member 10 of this embodiment to the vertical members 61, 71, and shows a cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the vertical members 61, 71. As shown in the figure, the opposing parts 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 are abutted against the abutting parts 12 of the lattice member 10, and the vertical members 61, 71 and the lattice member 10 are clamped and fixed (see FIG. 7A). In this state, a hole processing machine 80 (for example, a drilling machine) is inserted into the vertical members 61, 71 from the openings 63, 73 of the vertical members 61, 71, and holes are continuously formed in the opposing parts 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 and the abutting parts 12 of the lattice member 10 by the hole processing machine 80. As a result, the joint holes 67, 77 of the lattice member joint parts 65, 75 of the opposing parts 62, 72 and the through hole 13 of the lattice member 10 are continuously formed, and the formation of the joint holes 67, 77 and the formation of the through hole 13 are simultaneously performed by one hole processing (see FIG. 7B).

[0039] Next, the rivet joint machine 81 and the lattice member connector 8B, which is a rivet, are inserted into the vertical members 61, 71 through the openings 63, 73 of the vertical members 61, 71, and the lattice member connector 8B is inserted into the connector holes 67, 77 of the lattice member joints 65, 75 and the through hole 13 of the lattice member 10 (see FIG. 7C). Next, the rivet joint machine 81 processes the lattice member connector 8B, and the lattice member joints 65, 75 of the opposing parts 62, 72 are joined to the abutting parts 12 of the lattice member 10 by the lattice member connector 8B (see FIG. 7D). At the multiple lattice member joints 65, 75 of the opposing parts 62, 72, the hole processing machine 80 and the joining operation by the rivet joint machine 81 are repeated.

[0040] By forming holes in the opposing parts 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 and the abutting parts 12 of the lattice member 10 by a single hole processing, the time required to form the joining holes 67, 77 and the through holes 13 is shorter than when the opposing parts 62, 72 and the abutting parts 12 are processed separately. In addition, when the opposing parts 62, 72 and the abutting parts 12 are processed separately, there is a risk that the joining holes 67, 77 and the through holes 13 will be misaligned due to the processing tolerance of the hole processing. In contrast, by forming the joining holes 67, 77 and the through holes 13 by a single hole processing, the joining holes 67, 77 and the through holes 13 will not be misaligned, and the lattice member connector 8B can be smoothly inserted into the joining holes 67, 77 and the through holes 13.

[0041] The rivet has a recommended pilot hole size set to exert a fastening force. When holes are drilled separately in the facing parts 62, 72 and the abutting part 12, there is a concern that the fastening force of the rivet will be affected if the joining holes 67, 77 and the through hole 13 are enlarged to absorb the machining tolerance of the holes. In contrast, when the joining holes 67, 77 and the through hole 13 are formed by drilling in one operation, there is no need to enlarge the joining holes 67, 77 and the through hole 13, and the fastening force of the rivet is stably secured.

[0042] FIG. 8 is a perspective view showing the fence body 3 of this embodiment in the middle of being assembled. As shown in the figure, a plurality of lattice members 10 are joined to the opposing parts 62, 72 (lattice member joints 65, 75) of the vertical members 61, 71, and the upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 are joined to the opposing parts 62, 72 (retaining member joints 64, 74) of the vertical members 61, 71. At this time, the retaining members 40, 50 are joined to the opposing parts 62, 72 in the same procedure as that for joining the lattice members 10 to the opposing parts 62, 72 (see FIG. 7). Next, the lower retaining member 50 is inserted from the end of the lower furring strip 30 into the accommodation groove portion 31 of the lower furring strip 30, and the lower furring strip 30 is slid along the lower retaining member 50 in the longitudinal direction of the lower retaining member 50 (left-right direction S). As a result, the lower retaining member 50 is accommodated in the accommodation groove portion 31 of the lower furring strip 30 and attached to the lower furring strip 30.

[0043] Next, the cover materials 6, 7 of the vertical bones 60, 70 are slid along the vertical members 61, 71 in the longitudinal direction (up-down direction R) of the vertical members 61, 71, respectively, to attach the cover materials 6, 7 to the vertical members 61, 71. At this time, the cover materials 6, 7 come into contact with the lower furring strip 30 and stop at the attachment position to the vertical members 61, 71. Next, the upper retaining material 40 is inserted from the end of the upper furring strip 20 into the accommodation groove 21 of the upper furring strip 20, and the upper furring strip 20 is slid along the upper retaining material 40 in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction S) of the upper retaining material 40. As a result, the upper retaining material 40 is accommodated in the accommodation groove 21 of the upper furring strip 20 and attached to the upper furring strip 20. By the cover materials 6, 7 coming into contact with the lower furring strip 30, the cover materials 6, 7 are positioned so as not to come into contact with the upper furring strip 20, and the upper furring strip 20 slides smoothly. In this manner, the fence body 3 is assembled.

[0044] FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view showing the fence body 3 of this embodiment, showing a cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the vertical bones 60, 70. As shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the vertical members 61, 71 of the vertical bones 60, 70 have a pair of mounting portions 68, 78 extending in the longitudinal direction of the vertical members 61, 71. The cover materials 6, 7 of the vertical bones 60, 70 are mounted to the pair of mounting portions 68, 78 so as to be slidable in the longitudinal direction of the vertical members 61, 71. The pair of mounting portions 68, 78 are located on both sides of the openings 63, 73 of the vertical members 61, 71 in the left-right direction S, protrude in directions approaching each other, and face each other while being spaced apart from each other.

[0045] The cover materials 6, 7 have a pair of engagement parts 6A, 7A that engage with and are attached to the attachment parts 68, 78. The attachment parts 68, 78 are disposed inside the groove-shaped engagement parts 6A, 7A, and the engagement parts 6A, 7A engage with the attachment parts 68, 78. The engagement parts 6A, 7A slide in the longitudinal direction of the vertical members 61, 71 along the attachment parts 68, 78 and are attached to the attachment parts 68, 78. The pair of engagement parts 6A, 7A are located between the pair of attachment parts 68, 78, and are attached by engaging with the pair of attachment parts 68, 78 so as to be slidable in the longitudinal direction of the vertical members 61, 71. The vertical members 61, 71, via the mounting portions 68, 78, allow the engagement portions 6A, 7A and the cover materials 6, 7 to slide in the longitudinal direction of the vertical members 61, 71, while restricting movement of the engagement portions 6A, 7A and the cover materials 6, 7 in the thickness direction T and left-right direction S of the fence main body 3.

[0046] Fig. 10 is a diagram showing a middle vertical bone 70 of this embodiment. Figs. 10A, 10B, and 10C respectively show the vertical member 71, the cover material 7, and the middle vertical bone 70 as viewed from the support 2 side. Fig. 10D shows the vertical member 71 as viewed from the direction of arrow X2 in Fig. 10A. Fig. 10E shows the cover material 7 as viewed from the direction of arrow X3 in Fig. 10B. Fig. 10F shows the middle vertical bone 70 as viewed from the direction of arrow X4 in Fig. 10C.

[0047] As shown in the figure, the vertical member 71 of the central vertical bone 70 has upper and lower regulating portions 79. The upper and lower regulating portions 79 protrude from the mounting portion 78 and regulate the displacement of the covering material 7 while being pressed against the covering material 7. The upper and lower regulating portions 79 are protrusions protruding toward the covering material 7, and are formed on each of the pair of mounting portions 78 by applying a protruding process to the pair of mounting portions 78, and protrude from each of the pair of mounting portions 78. The upper and lower regulating portions 79 provided on the pair of mounting portions 78 are pushed toward both outer sides in the left-right direction S by the covering material 7 located between them, and the vertical member 71 is elastically deformed toward both outer sides in the left-right direction S. As a result, the upper and lower regulating portions 79 are urged toward the covering material 7 and pressed against the covering material 7.

[0048] The regulating portions 79 are provided at the upper and lower portions of the portion of the mounting portion 78 where the covering material 7 is mounted. The upper and lower regulating portions 79 are spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction of the vertical member 71 and abut against the covering material 7. The vertical member 71 presses the covering material 7 with the regulating portions 79 to regulate the displacement of the covering material 7. The regulating portions 79 press the covering material 7 to prevent the covering material 7 from wobbling, and the covering material 7 is stably mounted on the mounting portion 78 of the vertical member 71. Here, the regulating portions 79 protrude from the tip of the mounting portion 78 and are pressed against the engaging portions 7A of the covering material 7 to regulate the displacement of the pair of engaging portions 7A and the covering material 7. The upper and lower regulating portions 79 also press the engaging portions 7A and the upper and lower portions of the covering material 7 to regulate the displacement of the engaging portions 7A and the upper and lower portions of the covering material 7. The vertical member 61 of the end vertical bone 60 has upper and lower regulating portions configured similarly to the upper and lower regulating portions 79 of the vertical member 71 .

[0049] FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view showing a location where two fence bodies 3 of the fence 1 of this embodiment are adjacent to each other in the left-right direction S, and shows a cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the end vertical bones 60. As shown in the figure, in the fence 1, the left and right fence bodies 3 are installed side by side and adjacent to each other. The furring strips 20, 30, lattice members 10, vertical members 61, cover members 6, and vertical frames (here, end vertical frames 60) of adjacent fence bodies 3 are adjacent to each other and face each other with a gap between them. In this way, the fence bodies 3 are installed side by side with a gap between them, with the end vertical frames 60 and the lattice members 10 facing each other and adjacent to each other. In addition, the gap between the lattice members 10 of adjacent fence bodies 3 is narrower than the gap between the end vertical frames 60 (vertical members 61) of adjacent fence bodies 3.

[0050] In the end vertical bones 60 of adjacent fence main bodies 3, each cover material 6 has a first covering portion 6B covering the opposing portions of adjacent vertical members 61, a second covering portion 6C covering the opposing portions of adjacent lattice members 10, and a screen portion 6D protruding from the first covering portion 6B toward the first covering portion 6B of the adjacent cover material 6. The opposing portions of adjacent vertical members 61 are the side portions of the vertical members 61 located on the sides of the fence main body 3 in the left-right direction S, and the opposing portions of adjacent lattice members 10 are the ends and end edges of the lattice members 10 located on the sides of the fence main body 3 in the left-right direction S.

[0051] The first covering portion 6B of the cover material 6 is located on the post 2 side (site side) of the lattice material 10 and the second covering portion 6C, and is arranged along the vertical members 61 in the gap between the adjacent vertical members 61. The first covering portion 6B is arranged to a position closer to the post 2 side than the vertical members 61, and covers at least the mutually facing portions of the adjacent vertical members 61. The second covering portion 6C of the cover material 6 protrudes from the first covering portion 6B and the vertical members 61 toward the opposite side (road side) of the post 2, and is arranged along the lattice material 10 in the gap between the adjacent lattice members 10. At the end vertical bones 60 of the adjacent fence main bodies 3, the gap between the second covering portions 6C of the adjacent cover materials 6 is narrower than the gap between the first covering portions 6B of the adjacent cover materials 6. The gap is a gap in the left-right direction S, and the gap between the first covering portions 6B is wider than the gap between the second covering portions 6C.

[0052] The concealing portion 6D of the covering material 6 is a protruding portion that protrudes from the first covering portion 6B to the side of the fence main body 3 in the left-right direction S, and is disposed apart from the first covering portion 6B of the adjacent covering material 6. The concealing portion 6D is located in the gap between the first covering portions 6B of the adjacent covering materials 6, and functions as a screen in the gap between the adjacent fence main bodies 3. The concealing portions 6D of the covering materials 6 of the adjacent fence main bodies 3 are shifted from each other in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3 in the gap between the first covering portions 6B, and are disposed so as to overlap each other when viewed from the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3. When the gap between the first covering portions 6B and the concealing portion 6D are viewed from the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, the concealing portions 6D are disposed so that the tip portions overlap each other.

[0053] In the fence 1 described above, the openings 63, 73 located on the support 2 side of the opposing parts 62, 72 of the vertical members 61, 71 can be used to join the retaining members 40, 50 to the retaining member joints 64, 74 of the opposing parts 62, 72, and to join the lattice member 10 to the lattice member joints 65, 75 of the opposing parts 62, 72. At that time, each joint can be performed on the same opening 63, 73 side, improving the efficiency of the joining work. In addition, the workability of assembling the fence main body 3 can be improved. Therefore, it is possible to provide a fence 1 that allows the fence main body 3 provided with the lattice member 10 to be easily assembled. It is also possible to automate the assembly of the fence main body 3, and it is also possible to reduce the man-hours required for assembling the fence main body 3 and the cost of the fence main body 3. The upper and lower retaining members 40, 50 and the lattice member 10 can be easily joined to each of the end vertical bones 60 and the center vertical bone 70, which are the vertical bones 60, 70.

[0054] The retaining material connector 8A is inserted through the joint holes 66, 76 of the overlapping retaining material joints 64, 74 and the through holes 42, 52 of the retaining materials 40, 50, and the lattice material connector 8B is inserted through the joint holes 67, 77 of the overlapping lattice material joints 65, 75 and the through hole 13 of the lattice material 10. In this state, the retaining material connector 8A can easily connect the abutment pieces 41, 51 of the retaining materials 40, 50 to the retaining material joints 64, 74 of the opposing parts 62, 72, and the lattice material connector 8B can easily connect the abutment parts 12 of the lattice material 10 to the lattice material joints 65, 75 of the opposing parts 62, 72.

[0055] The cover materials 6, 7 shield the openings 63, 73 of the vertical members 61, 71 and the inside of the vertical members 61, 71 (including the retaining member joints 64, 74, the lattice member joints 65, 75, the retaining member joints 8A, and the lattice member joints 8B), preventing the openings 63, 73 of the vertical members 61, 71 and the inside of the vertical members 61, 71 from being exposed. This improves the design of the vertical bones 60, 70. In addition, the vertical bones 60, 70 are formed into a hollow shape by the vertical members 61, 71 and the cover materials 6, 7, ensuring the strength of the vertical bones 60, 70. The restricting portion 79 of the vertical member 71 and the restricting portion of the vertical member 61 also allow the cover materials 6, 7 to be stably attached to the vertical members 61, 71.

[0056] By making the gap between the second covering portions 6C of the covering material 6 narrower than the gap between the first covering portions 6B of adjacent fence bodies 3, the gap between the lattice materials 10 is narrowed when the lattice materials 10 of adjacent fence bodies 3 are viewed from the opposite side of the posts 2, thereby improving the design of the fence body 3. Also, by arranging the screening portion 6D in the gap between the first covering portions 6B, it is possible to ensure a space for arranging the screening portion 6D of adjacent covering materials 6 and an overlapping allowance (overlapping width) between the screening portions 6D.

[0057] Fig. 12 shows another example of the central vertical bone 70 of this embodiment. Fig. 12A, Fig. 12B, and Fig. 12C respectively show the vertical member 71, the cover material 7, and the central vertical bone 70 as viewed from one side in the left-right direction S. Fig. 12D shows the vertical member 71 as viewed from the direction of arrow X5 in Fig. 12A. Fig. 12E shows the cover material 7 as viewed from the direction of arrow X6 in Fig. 12B. Fig. 12F shows the central vertical bone 70 as viewed from the direction of arrow X7 in Fig. 12C.

[0058] As shown in the figure, the vertical member 71 of the central vertical bone 70 has a vertical member side regulating portion 71A provided at one of the upper and lower sides, and the cover material 7 of the central vertical bone 70 has a cover material side regulating portion 7B provided at the other of the upper and lower sides. The vertical member side regulating portion 71A is formed at one of the upper and lower sides of the portion of the mounting portion 78 of the vertical member 71 where the cover material 7 is mounted, and the cover material side regulating portion 7B is formed at the other of the upper and lower sides of the cover material 7. The vertical member side regulating portion 71A is provided at the mounting portion 78 of the vertical member 71 and protrudes to one side in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3, and the cover material side regulating portion 7B is provided at the engagement portion 7A of the cover material 7 and protrudes to the other side in the thickness direction T of the fence main body 3.

[0059] Here, the vertical member-side regulating portion 71A is provided at the lower part of the mounting portion 78 where the covering material 7 is mounted, and protrudes from the mounting portion 78 toward the opposite side of the pillar 2. The covering material-side regulating portion 7B is provided at the upper part of the covering material 7, and protrudes from the engagement portion 7A toward the pillar 2. The vertical member-side regulating portion 71A regulates the displacement of the covering material 7 when pressed against the covering material 7. The covering material-side regulating portion 7B is disposed away from the vertical member-side regulating portion 71A in the longitudinal direction of the vertical member 71, and regulates the displacement of the covering material 7 when pressed against the mounting portion 78 of the vertical member 71.

[0060] The vertical member side regulating portion 71A is a protrusion that protrudes toward the cover material 7, and is formed on each of the pair of mounting portions 78 by applying a protruding process to the pair of mounting portions 78, and protrudes from each of the pair of mounting portions 78. The cover material side regulating portion 7B is a protrusion that protrudes toward the mounting portion 78, and is formed on each of the pair of engaging portions 7A by applying a protruding process to the pair of engaging portions 7A, and protrudes from each of the pair of engaging portions 7A. When the engaging portions 7A of the cover material 7 slide from above to below along the mounting portions 78 of the vertical member 71 and are attached to the mounting portions 78, the vertical member side regulating portion 71A abuts against the engaging portions 7A of the cover material 7, and the cover material side regulating portion 7B abuts against the mounting portions 78 of the vertical member 71.

[0061] The vertical member-side regulating portion 71A and the covering material-side regulating portion 7B are provided at different positions in the longitudinal direction of the vertical member 71, spaced apart from each other. The vertical member-side regulating portion 71A protrudes toward the engaging portion 7A of the covering material 7 and is pressed against the engaging portion 7A. The vertical member 71 presses the covering material 7 by the vertical member-side regulating portion 71A, thereby regulating the displacement of the covering material 7. The covering material-side regulating portion 7B protrudes toward the mounting portion 78 of the vertical member 71 and is pressed against the mounting portion 78. The covering material-side regulating portion 7B is pressed by the mounting portion 78 of the vertical member 71, and the displacement of the covering material 7 is regulated by the covering material-side regulating portion 7B.

[0062] The vertical member side regulating portion 71A and the cover member side regulating portion 7B hold down the cover member 7 to prevent the cover member 7 from rattling, and the cover member 7 can be stably attached to the attachment portion 78 of the vertical member 71. Here, the vertical member side regulating portion 71A and the cover member side regulating portion 7B regulate the displacement of the pair of engagement portions 7A of the cover member 7. The vertical member side regulating portion 71A and the cover member side regulating portion 7B hold down the engagement portions 7A and the upper and lower portions of the cover member 7 to regulate the displacement of the engagement portions 7A and the upper and lower portions of the cover member 7. The vertical member 61 of the end vertical bone 60 has a vertical member side regulating portion configured similarly to the vertical member side regulating portion 71A of the vertical member 71, and the cover member 6 of the end vertical bone 60 has a cover member side regulating portion configured similarly to the cover member side regulating portion 7B of the cover member 7.

[0063] As described above, the present embodiment discloses the fences described in the following items (1) to (7).
