Abstract
Description
[0001]Fence module The invention relates to the field of construction, namely, to modular fences, the posts of which can be combined with various types of fencing. A fence module is known, comprising two posts and a barrier connected to them, wherein at least one longitudinal groove is made inside each post, open towards the location of the sections, in each of which at least two fastening elements are placed (see RU170040U1, published on 12.04.2017). The disadvantages of the known module are the limited possibilities for modifying the fence in terms of combining posts with different shapes of barriers, insufficient strength of the connection of the posts with the barriers, the lack of the ability to ensure tension in the connection of the modules, as well as the high labor intensity of assembling the fence modules. The technical problem is the creation of a modular series of durable fence structures with a different number of barrier sections between the posts, with different shapes of sections and their heights and widths,and also expansion of the possibilities of upgrading the fence, including during its operation, by selecting the shape and size of the fence section, changing the number of fence sections, determining the width of the fence between the posts. The technical result is to ensure the strength of the fence and the rigidity of its structure, regardless of the selected shape and size of the fence section, accelerating the assembly of the fence while ensuring the convenience of its assembly. The technical problem is solved, and the technical result is achieved in that the fence module contains two posts and a fence connected to them, while inside each post there is at least one longitudinal groove open towards the location of the fence, in each of which at least two fastening elements are placed, characterized in that the post is made profiled, the longitudinal groove is made in a cylindrical cross section,the longitudinal geometric axis of which is offset relative to the longitudinal geometric axis of the post towards the location of the barrier, wherein the diameter of the groove in its cross-section is made larger than its width at the outlet of the groove onto the outer surface of the post, the fastening element is made in the form of a cylindrical boss located inside the cylindrical groove coaxially with it, a threaded hole is made in the fastening element in the direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the element, and the barrier is made in the form of a group of sequentially installed sections, wherein the section is made lattice, having at least two longitudinal beams with internal openings, in each of which a stud with threaded sections at its opposite ends is located, wherein one threaded end of the stud is screwed into the threaded hole of the fastening element located in the longitudinal groove of one post, and its other threaded end is screwed into the threaded hole of the fastening element,placed in a longitudinal groove of another post, wherein the threaded connections of the ends of the studs with the fastening elements are made with the possibility of changing the amount of tension between the posts by changing the distance between the fastening elements located at the opposite ends of the stud. The technical result is also achieved in that at least one recess of the lock can be made on the outer surface of the fastening element, and the section is provided with at least one locking protrusion entering the recess of the fastening element. The technical result is also achieved in that each section can be provided with a locking protrusion located on one side of the section, and on the opposite side of each section a recess is made intended for insertion of the locking protrusion of the adjacent section into it. The technical result is also achieved in that the section can be made of a non-metallic material. The technical result is also achieved in thatthat the posts can be made of non-plasticized polyvinyl chloride. The technical result is also achieved by the fact that a through longitudinal opening can be made in the post along its longitudinal geometric axis, in which a reinforcing load-bearing element made in the form of a pipe is placed. The technical result is also achieved by the fact that the length of the reinforcing load-bearing element can exceed the length of the post, and the reinforcing element can be made in the form of a pile buried in the ground. The technical result is also achieved by the fact that each post can be equipped with a base connected to it, having a fastening flange. The technical result is also achieved by the fact that the sections can be made replaceable, with the possibility of forming a barrier of various shapes. The technical result is also achieved by the fact thatthat each post can be made with the possibility of connecting it in the longitudinal direction with another post to increase the height of the composite post. The invention is explained with the help of drawings. Fig. 1 shows an assembled fence module; Fig. 2 is a diagram of disassembling the module with flange fastening of the posts to the foundation; Fig. 3 is a diagram of disassembling the module with fastening of the posts into the ground; Fig. 4 is an enlarged view A in Fig. 2; Fig. 5 is an enlarged section of the place of connection of the section with the post; Figs. 6 and 7 show cross-sections of the post having different variants of the profile design; Figs. 8-12 show variants of the fence module design. The described fence module contains two profiled posts 1, made, for example, by extrusion from a non-metallic material and a fence connected to them, made in the form of a group of sequentially located sections 2. Inside each post 1, at least one longitudinal groove 3 is made,open towards the location of sections 2. Groove 3 is cylindrical in cross-section, longitudinal geometric axis 4 of which is shifted relative to longitudinal geometric axis 5 of post 1 towards the location of section 2 closest to the post. Diameter "d" of groove 3 in its cross-section (see Fig. 6) is made larger than its width "h" at the outlet of groove 3 onto the outer surface of post 1. At least two fastening elements 6 are placed in each groove 3, each of which is made in the form of a cylindrical boss located inside the cylindrical groove 3 coaxially with it. A threaded hole 7 is made in fastening element 6 in a direction transverse to longitudinal axis 8 of element 6. Each section 2 is latticed, having at least two longitudinal beams 9 with internal openings, in each of which a stud 10 with threaded sections at its opposite ends is located. In this case, one threaded end of stud 10 is screwed into threaded hole 7 of fastening element 6,located in the longitudinal groove 3 of one post 1, and its other threaded end is screwed into the threaded hole 7 of the fastening element 6 located in the longitudinal groove 3 of the other post 1. The threaded connections of the ends of the studs 10 with the fastening elements 6 are made with the possibility of changing the amount of tension between the posts 1 by changing the distance between the fastening elements 6 located at the opposite ends of the stud 10. At least one recess 11 of the retainer can be made on the outer surface of the fastening element 6, and section 2 is provided with at least one locking protrusion 12 entering the recess 11 of the fastening element. It is also possible to make the recess 11 in section 2, and the protrusion 12 in element 6. A similar device can be used to fix a set of sections 2 of one module to each other. In this case, each section 2 can be provided with a locking protrusion 12 located on one side of section 2,and on the opposite side of each section 2 there is a recess (not shown in the drawings) intended for inserting the locking projection 12 of the adjacent section 2 into it. Section 2 can be made of a non-metallic material, wherein sections 2 can be made replaceable, and the shape of sections 2 of each group can be made different from the shape of sections 2 of another group. Posts 1 can be made of unplasticized polyvinyl chloride. In post 1, along its longitudinal geometric axis 5, a through longitudinal opening 13 can be made, in which a reinforcing bearing element 14, made in the form of a pipe, is placed. Opening 13 can be made with a different cross-sectional shape, for example, in the form of a polygon, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7. The length of the reinforcing bearing element 14 can exceed the length of post 1, and the reinforcing element 14 can be made in the form of a pile buried in the ground. Each column 1 can be provided with a base 15 connected to it,having a fastening flange 16. Each post 1 can be made with the possibility of connecting it in the longitudinal direction with another post 1 to increase the height of the composite post (see Fig. 12). Post 1 can also have a plug 17, covering the end surface of its profile and connected to the post using a rivet 18. The described fence module is used for the construction of fences of various purposes, with different shapes of the fenced area and different heights. The presence of several parallel longitudinal grooves 3 in post 1 makes it possible to use any groove 3 for arranging elements 6 in it and thus arrange sections 2 and subsequent posts 1 in the required direction. In this case, sections 2 located next to each other in the fence are made by injection molding on injection molding machines and have different shapes depending on the purpose of the fence. The span between posts 1 depends on the number of sections 2 in the fence. In this case, the cylindrical shape of the fastening element 6,installed in the cylindrical groove 3, ensures reliable fastening of the element 6 in the post 1, and the threaded connection of the stud 10 with the element 6 ensures the overall strength of the fence module and allows for longitudinal tension of the module by changing the tension in the threaded connection. In addition, the use of a power reinforcing metal stud 10 in the fence allows for the sections 2 to be freed from the load-bearing function of the building elements and to be made as a set of non-metals, mainly with a decorative function. In this case, the labor intensity of assembling the fence, consisting of a plurality of modules, is reduced, as well as the assembly of each module due to the introduction of the fixed post 1 of the elements 6 into the groove 3 together with the assembled fence, consisting of sections 2 assembled on the studs 10. If it is necessary to change the height of the fence, post 1 is extended with an additional post 1 (see Fig. 12). In this case, the number of studs 10 is also increased,sections 2 and elements 6. To increase strength, post 1 can be reinforced with element 14, made in the form of a standard pipe, for example, 3 / 4 inch. Thus, the use of the described module allows to provide the required strength and reduce the labor intensity of construction. In addition, it is possible to create a modular series of fences used for the construction of barriers for various purposes, of various shapes and sizes.
