Fence and its fixing device

USPTO Application #: 20070187661
Title: Fence and its fixing device
Abstract: A fence is made integral of plastic foam material by injecting molding, having an inner shock-enduring layer contained in the interior, and shaped corrugated to have a plurality of lengthwise convex ridges and lengthwise concave recesses alternately connected with each other, with a light reflecting strip or dot adhered on each ridge. The fixing device of the fence includes a fixing base and a fixing block, and the fixing base is provided with a fence-contacting surface for combining with the fence. The fixing block is fixed with a bolt on a front surface of the fence at the spot where the fence is to be fixed with the vertical post, with the fixing base placed behind the fence. Thus the fence can be installed stably at two sides of a road, (end of abstract)

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] This invention relates to a fence and its fixing device, particularly to one made of plastic foam material with shock-enduring property for positioned stably at two sides of a road by means of the fixing device, and its fixing work is quick and simple,

[0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art

[0004] A conventional fence fixed at two sides of a road shown in FIG. 1 includes a fence 1 made of metal and a post 11. The fence 1 is provided with plural boltholes 10 for bolts 13 to tighten the fence with the post 11, with a buffer block 212 sandwiched between the fence 1 and the post 11. But the metal fence 1 may be limited in its length, and it takes much time in fixing the fence 1 with the post 11, which is made of concrete, metal, wood, etc. and concrete may be the preferable material for the post 11 because of its anti-corrosion. The buffer block 12 is made of wood, having buffering function for the fence 1.

[0005] However, the conventional fence and its fixing device have been found to have the following disadvantages. [0006] 1. The metal fence 1 is devoid of elasticity, and easily bends in case of shock a car receives, having a potential danger for persons and cars, Moreover, a reflective strip is not easily attached on its surface, so reflective paint has to be used, but reflective paint may be liable to peel off. [0007] 2. In fixing the fence with the post, the bolt and nut 13 and a buffer block 12 are used, but the buffer block 12 is made of wood, easily rotten by means of elements, resulting in a problem of replacing it even if it might not be hit to break off. [0008] 3. In positioning it at two sides of a road, much workload is necessary for combining the fence, the post and the buffer block, delaying the work.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0009] The inventin has the following features. [0010] 1. The fence is made integral of plastic foam material, having a plurality of light reflecting strips or spots on its outer surface, containing an shock-enduring layer for boosting enduring force to shocks, not easily rifting and making it very safe to humans and cars. [0011] 2. The fixing device of the fence consists of a fixing base, a fixing block and a post, The fixing base is combined with the post first, and then the fence is fixed with the fixing base, saving assembling work and quickening its work. [0012] 3. The fixing base is provided with a fence-contacting surface for fixing with the fence tightly, and with a post-contacting surface for fixing with the post tightly. So the fence can be assembled with the fixing base and the post together with easiness and quickness.
