Rackable panel assembly and methods of assembly thereof
A rackable panel assembly is provided includes including a plurality of vertical members each having a rail engagement opening defined therein; and at least one rail having sets of opposed openings spaced along a longitudinal length of the rail, each set of opposed openings adapted to receive a vertical member of said plurality of vertical members therethrough and at least partially cover the rail engagement opening of said vertical member. The assembly further includes at least one coupling member adapted to be at least partially received in each said vertical member for pivotally coupling the vertical member to the at least one rail.
MODULAR FENCE SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
A modular fence system is disclosed herein. The modular fence system may include a first vertical post, a second vertical post, a first horizontal support configured to extend between and secure to the first vertical post and the second vertical post, a first vertical panel comprising a first vertically elongated slot and a second vertically elongated slot, and a first plurality of fasteners. Additional horizontal supports and vertical panels may be included. The modular fence system and its components may be configured to be installed on sloped terrain.
ADAPTABLE FENCE BRACING
Apparatus and associated methods relate to fence bracing apparatus having a tension adjusting modules to diagonally brace a fence posts and/or adaptive fence brackets for flexibly bracing the fence posts for various fence configurations and for attachment of various accessories. In an illustrative example, a fence tensioning module may include a tension regulation module coupled to a tension adjusting link. For example, the fence tensioning module may adjust the position of the tension adjusting link relative to the fence tensioning module so that a tension of the tension adjusting link is adjusted. The adaptive fence bracket, for example, may include a butterfly clamp and an adaptive C-bracket having two sidearms configured to couple, for example, to fence rails and/or other tension members to form various fence bracing configurations. Various implementations may advantageously provide adaptive and secure fence construction and provide options to install accessories.
HANDRAIL ARRANGEMENTS
The present invention relates to a handrail arrangement. The handrail arrangement comprises a handrail defining a grippable exterior surface and a recess in the handrail. The handrail arrangement also comprises an attachment device (40, 42) which is receivable in part in the recess defined in the handrail, the attachment device being configured in respect of a part not received in the recess to be attached to a handrail support (32). The handrail comprises first and second parts (34, 36) which are configured to releasably attach to each other, the first and second parts when attached to each other defining a substantially continuous exterior surface of the handrail in a circumferential direction, the first part defining more than 180 degrees of the circumference of the exterior surface of the handrail and the second part defining less than 180 degrees of the circumference of the exterior surface of the handrail.
Fence/rail assembly with concealed sliding, pivotal connection, and manufacturing method therefor
A fencing/railing assembly adapted to be positioned between a pair of posts and mounted thereto includes a plurality of pickets, a plurality of rails extending transverse to the pickets, and one or more pivoting, sliding connectors for connecting a picket to a rail, with the sliding, pivotal connection concealed by the rail. The connector is slidably mounted to the rail and is pivotally connected to the picket. In one embodiment, an elongated connector strip is concealed by the rail and spans multiple pickets. In another embodiment, the assembly includes a plurality of shorter connectors, one for each picket/rail connection.
Deformable folding fence
The present utility model relates to a deformable folding fence, including multiple groups of quick fixing assemblies, in which the multiple groups of quick fixing assemblies are connected to upper rods, lower rods and support rods, and two ends of each of the upper rods, the lower rods and the support rods are both provided with an elastic button and a clamping groove, each quick fixing assembly includes a fixing member main body, and a side wall of the fixing member main body is connected to a middle sleeve, so as to utilize the quick fixing assemblies, the upper rods, the lower rods, the support rods and the interaction among various components, so that the fences of different shapes can be spliced according to usage requirements and fields.
RACKABLE PANEL ASSEMBLY AND METHODS OF ASSEMBLY THEREOF
A rackable panel assembly is provided including a plurality of vertical members each having a rail engagement opening defined therein; and at least one rail having sets of opposed openings spaced along a longitudinal length of the rail, each set of opposed openings adapted to receive a vertical member of said plurality of vertical members therethrough and at least partially cover the rail engagement opening of said vertical member. The assembly further includes at least one coupling member adapted to be at least partially received in each said vertical member for pivotally coupling the vertical member to the at least one rail.
FENCE SYSTEM AND METHOD
A fence system may include stably coupleable posts, railings, and pickets. A post may include components configured to snap fit such as a post housing and post cover. A post cover may include a hole to snap fit to an end of a railing. A railing may include components configured to snap fit such as a railing housing and railing cover. Railing components may include holes positioned to correspond when the components are snap fit. The corresponding holes may be dimensioned to snap fit an end of a picket. Railings, pickets, or both may be pivoted when snap fit with a respective post or railing.
INTERLOCKING FENCE PANELS
Interlocking fence panels for interconnection between horizontal channeled rails in a fence system, and, more particularly, to improved interlocking fence panel members which can interconnect for insertion between horizontal channeled rails to provide a one-piece continuous infill effect between these horizontal channeled rails in a fence system which, when interconnected with other panels and in place, will not become disengaged from one another and which will strengthen the stability and integrity of the fence system itself.
Fencing System And Method For Assembling A Fence Panel
This invention relates to a fencing system and method for assembling a fence panel. The fencing system comprises pickets, braces and rails which can be assembled into a fence panel. The fence panel can be assembled by inserting the pickets through the slots of the brace and the opening of the rails when the brace is in the unlocked position. The assembled fence panel can be locked into place by longitudinally driving the braces relative to their respective rails from the unlocked position to the locked position.
