[Modes for carrying out the invention] 【0007】 The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Figures 1 to 3 show a first embodiment of the structure of the present invention. This structure is applied to a fence 24 installed at the boundary between the property of a house and the road, or next to a gate, etc. As shown in Figure 1, this fence 24 has two posts 1,1 erected from the ground G, and a girder 5 is installed on the upper ends of the posts 1,1 to form a gate-shaped frame, and multiple horizontal grids 3,3,... are provided at vertical intervals on the road-side and site-side visible surfaces and the left and right visible surfaces of the frame. 【0008】 Column 1 is formed from an extruded aluminum alloy profile and, as shown in Figure 3, is formed in a hollow, square-sectioned form. The girder 5 is formed from an extruded aluminum alloy profile and, as shown in Figure 2, has a rectangular hollow section 6 and a recess 7 that opens downward on the lower side of the hollow section 6, which are continuous in the longitudinal direction. A cover 8 is attached to the longitudinal end of the girder 5, and the cover 8 closes the end of the girder 5. As shown in Figure 2, the upper end of the column 1 is fitted into the recess 7 of the girder 5 and fixed to the bottom wall of the recess 7 via a fitting 25. The recess 7 of the girder 5 is closed from below by fitting and attaching a cover plate 9, except for the part into which the column 1 is fitted. 【0009】 As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the grids 3, 3, ... attached to the road-side and site-side facing surfaces 10 of column 1 are constructed by stacking grid units 2, 2, ..., each consisting of multiple grids 3, 3, ..., vertically. In Figure 1, six grid units 2 are stacked vertically, with the first to fifth grid units 2 from the bottom being identical, each consisting of six grids 3, and the top grid unit 2 consisting of seven grids 3. 【0010】 As shown in Figures 2, 3, and 5, each grid unit 2 is constructed by arranging multiple grids 3, 3, ... at intervals in the vertical direction, and fastening the longitudinal ends of each grid 3, 3, ... to two vertically positioned furring strips 4, 4 facing the visible surface 10 of the columns 1, 1 with screws 11 from the rear. As shown in Figure 2, the lattice 3 is formed from an extruded aluminum alloy profile into a hollow rectangular cross-section, and as shown in Figure 3, both the left and right ends protrude laterally from the column 1. Resin caps 12 are attached to both the left and right ends of the lattice 3, sealing the ends of the lattice 3 with the caps 12. The furring strips 4 are formed from extruded aluminum alloy profiles and, as shown in Figure 3, are long members with a roughly C-shaped cross-section, with the side facing the column 1 open. As shown in Figure 2, the second from the top and the second from the bottom of the lattice unit 2 are lattices 3a with detachable cover plates 13 attached to the front, while the other lattices 3 are lattices 3b without cover plates. Each lattice unit 2 is attached to the column 1 by abutting the rear surface of the furring strip 4 against the visible surface 10 of the column 1 and screwing the lattice 3a with cover plates to the column 1 with screws 14 from the front, as shown in Figures 2 and 3. 【0011】 As shown in Figure 2, a support bracket 15 is attached to the column 1 to support the lower end of the furring strip 4 of each lattice unit 2. The support bracket 15 is a roughly L-shaped bracket having a mounting piece 17 that abuts against the visible surface 10 of the column 1 and is fixed with a screw 16, and a support piece 18 on which the lower end of the furring strip 4 is placed. 【0012】 Next, the installation procedure for the lattice units 2,2,... will be explained. First, as shown in Figure 4-1(a), a support bracket 15 is attached to a predetermined height position on the visible surface 10 of the column 1. The lower end of the furring strip 4 of the assembled lattice unit 2 is placed on the support piece 18 of the support bracket 15, and the rear surface of the furring strip 4 is brought into contact with the visible surface 10 of the column 1. Note that the fascia 13 of the lattice 3a with fascia strips should be removed. Next, as shown in Figure 4-1(b), the lattice 3a with the cover plate is fixed to the column 1 with screws 14 from the front. Since the lower end of the furring strip 4 of the lattice unit 2 is resting on the support piece 18 of the support bracket 15, the lattice unit 2 is held at a predetermined height position, and there is no need to hold the lattice unit 2 up by hand, so it is easy to screw it to the column 1. After that, the cover plate 13 is attached to the lattice 3a to hide the screws 14. Next, as shown in Figure 4-1(c), the support piece 18 is brought into contact with the upper end of the furring strip 4, and the support fitting 15 is attached to the visible surface 10 of the column 1. Next, as shown in Figure 4-2(d), the lower end of the furring strip 4 of the second lattice unit 2 is placed on the support piece 18 of the support bracket 15, and the rear surface of the furring strip 4 is brought into contact with the visible surface 10 of the column 1. Next, as shown in Figure 4-2(e), the lattice 3a with the cover plate is fixed to the column 1 with screws 14 from the front. Then, the cover plate 13 is attached to the lattice 3a to hide the screws 14. Next, as shown in Fig. 4-2(f), the support piece 18 is abutted against the upper end of the barrel edge 4, and the support fitting 15 is attached to the finding surface 10 of the pillar 1. Similarly, the lattice units 2, 2,... of the 3rd to 6th stages are attached. 【0013】 As shown in Figs. 1(b) and 3, the lattices 3, 3,... on the prospective surfaces 19 outside the left and right pillars 1, 1 are formed by stacking lattice units 20, which are formed by connecting a plurality of lattices 3, 3,... with the barrel edge 4 and grouped together, vertically. The lattice unit 20 on the prospective surface 19 has the same structure as the lattice unit 2 on the finding surface 10, except that the length of the lattice 3 is shorter, and the method of attaching it to the pillar 1 is the same as that of the lattice unit 2 on the finding surface 10. The lattice 3 of the lattice unit 2 on the finding surface 10 and the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 20 on the prospective surface 19 are arranged at the same height position as shown in Fig. 1, and as shown in Fig. 3, the longitudinal end faces of the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 20 on the prospective surface 19 are close to the rear surfaces of the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 2 on the finding surface 10. Thus, the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 2 on the finding surface 10 and the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 20 on the prospective surface 19 are continuously arranged. 【0014】 As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the lattices 3 are also attached to the finding surfaces 21 on the road side and the site side of the crossbar 5 and the left and right prospective surfaces of this fence 24. The lattice 3 is a lattice 3a with a mesh plate as shown in Fig. 2, and is attached to the crossbar 5 with a screw 22 inserted from the front side, and the screw 22 is hidden by the mesh plate 13. By sandwiching a spacer 23 between the rear surface of the lattice 3 and the crossbar 5, the finding surfaces of the lattice 3 attached to the crossbar 5 and the lattice 3 of the lattice units 2, 20 are flush. In this way, by attaching the lattice 3 to the crossbar 5, the crossbar 5 becomes less conspicuous and the design property is improved. 【0015】 As described above, the present structure (fence) 24 includes columns 1, 1 and lattice units 2, 2,... attached to the finding surfaces 10 of the columns 1, 1. The lattice unit 2 has a plurality of lattices 3, 3,... arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, and a body edge 4 that connects the lattices 3 to each other. At least one of the plurality of lattices 3, 3,... is a lattice 3a with a mesh plate, and the rest are lattices 3b without a mesh plate. By screwing the lattice 3a with a mesh plate to the column 1, the lattice units 2, 2,... are attached to the columns 1, 1, so that the attachment of the lattices 3, 3,... is easy, and moreover, a plurality of lattices 3, 3,... can be attached together, so that the construction can be simplified. Moreover, the screw 14 for attaching the lattice unit 2 to the column 1 is hidden by the mesh plate 13 of the lattice 3a with a mesh plate, and the screw 14 is not exposed to the outside, so the design is good. The present structure 24 has lattice units 2, 20 attached to the finding surfaces 10 in front of and behind the column 1 (road side and site side) and the prospective surface 19 of the column 1, respectively. The lattices 3 of the lattice unit 2 on the finding surface 10 and the lattices 3 of the lattice unit 20 on the prospective surface 19 are continuously arranged, so that the same design is obtained no matter from which direction around, and the design is good. The present structure 24 has a girder 5 installed at the upper ends of the columns 1, 1, and lattices 3 are attached to the girder 5, so that it can be made firm, and moreover, the girder 5 is not prominent and the design is good. The present structure 24 has a support fitting 15 for supporting the lower end of the body edge 4 attached to the column 1, so that the attachment of the lattice units 2, 20 is easy. A plurality of lattice units 2, 20 are attached in a stacked manner in the vertical direction. The support fitting 15 is attached to the column 1 in a state of abutting against the upper end of the body edge 4 of the lower lattice unit 2, 20, and the lower end of the body edge 4 of the upper lattice unit 2, 20 is placed on the support fitting 15. Therefore, it is easy to attach a plurality of lattice units 2, 20 in a stacked manner, and the workability is further improved. 【0016】 Figs. 6 and 7 show a second embodiment of the structure of the present invention. This structure is an embodiment for constructing a long fence 24 in the left-right direction. Three or more columns 1 are erected at intervals, a girder 5 is installed at the upper ends of the columns 1, and lattice units 2, 2,... are attached in a stacked manner across the finding surfaces 10 on the road side of two adjacent columns 1, 1. The lattice units 2 are installed side by side in the left-right direction between every two adjacent columns 1,1. As shown in Figure 7, on the intermediate column 1, the right-hand furring strip 4 of the lattice unit 2 located on the left and the left-hand furring strip 4 of the lattice unit 2 located on the right are attached to the visible surface 10 of the same column 1. The lattice 3 of the left lattice unit 2 and the lattice 3 of the right lattice unit 2 are arranged continuously with their longitudinal end faces close together. The structure of the lattice unit 2 and the method of attachment to the column 1 are the same as in the first embodiment. Although the illustrated diagram shows the lattice 3 attached only to the road-facing surface 10, the lattice 3 can also be attached to the site-facing surface 10 and the left and right facing surfaces 19, just as in the first embodiment. 【0017】 Figure 8 shows a third embodiment of the structure of the present invention. This embodiment is for the case where fences 24a and 24b are installed continuously in a 90° bend. The fences 24a and 24b, which are installed intersecting each other, have their lattice units 2a and 2b attached to the road-facing visible surface 10 of the column 1, stacked vertically on top of each other. At the corner of the column 1, the purlins 4 of the lattice units 2a and 2b are abutted against the two intersecting sides facing the road and screwed in place. In the lattice unit 2a of the intersecting fence 24a, the lattice 3 protrudes laterally beyond the corner column 1, and the end face of the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 2b of the other fence 24b is close to the rear face of the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 2a of the one fence 24a that protrudes from the column 1. In this way, the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 2a of the one fence 24a and the lattice 3 of the lattice unit 2b of the other fence 24b are arranged continuously. The structure of the lattice units 2a and 2b and the method of attaching them to the column 1 are the same as in the first embodiment. In the illustrated example, one fence 24a and the other fence 24b form an external corner, but they can also be used to form an internal corner. 【0018】 Figure 9 shows a fourth embodiment of the structure of the present invention. This embodiment shows a case in which fences 24a and 24b are installed continuously in a 90° bend, and in which lattice units 2 are attached to both the road side and the site side. Similar to the first embodiment, the intersecting fences 24a and 24b each have lattice units 2 attached to the road-facing and site-facing surfaces 10 of the column 1, respectively. The end faces of the lattice 3 of the road-facing and site-facing lattice units 2 of the one fence 24a are close to the longitudinal end faces of the lattice 3 of the road-facing and site-facing lattice units 2 of the other fence 24b. In this way, the lattices 3 of the road-facing and site-facing lattice units 2 of the intersecting fences 24a and 24b are arranged continuously. The structure of the lattice unit 2 and the method of attaching it to the column 1 are the same as in the first embodiment. In the illustrated example, one fence 24a and the other fence 24b form an inside corner, but it can also be used to form an outside corner. 【0019】 As described above, according to the structure of the present invention, by arranging the lattice units 2 side by side, the fence 24 can be constructed to be long in the left-right direction (see the second embodiment, Figures 6 and 7), or by arranging the lattice units 2, 2a, and 2b so as to intersect, the fences 24a and 24b can be constructed in a 90° bend (see the third and fourth embodiments, Figures 8 and 9). In either case, as with the first embodiment, multiple lattices 3, 3, ... can be attached to the column 1 together, resulting in good workability. 【0020】 The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. The materials and cross-sectional shapes of the columns, lattices, and furring strips can be changed as appropriate. The number of lattices provided in a single lattice unit can be changed as appropriate, and at least one of them should be a lattice with a fascia board. The present invention is not limited to fences, but can be applied to any structure in which lattices are attached horizontally between columns.
