摘要:
A cap assembly for a fence post comprises a molded upper base member, with a molded cap, preferably snapped together by internal prong-and-ear fasteners, or molded as a single piece, or as vertical halves fastened together. Various ornamental configurations are disclosed, such as New England cap, Ball cap or Gothic Spire cap. The components are brought together to make a hollow structure giving the appearance of a machined wood or plastic ornamental fence post cap.
摘要:
A clip-on picket fence cap assembly that can resist detachment of a plastic picket cap member from a plastic picket member when significant pulling force is applied to the cap member. The legs of the cap member upon which the clips are installed are very stiff by virtue of being reinforced by gussets that resist deflection of the legs when inserted in a picket. The assembly includes clips having outer surfaces that are substantially arched or bowed in shape in order to enhance their strength and resistance to deformation. The outer surface of each clip is preferably provided with at least one outwardly projecting retention means adapted for secure embedment into the inner wall surfaces of a picket member when the cap assembly is inserted therein.
摘要:
A post cladding element is provided including a one-piece elongated tubular flexible body having a continuous seam closure formed along the body and defined at first and second opposing longitudinal edges of the flexible body, whereby a post may be clad by flexing the body to open the seam closure a sufficient width to dispose the flexible body around the post.
摘要:
A clip-on assembly that can resist detachment of a plastic picket cap member from a plastic picket member when significant pulling force is applied to the cap member. The assembly includes a single clip constructed as a bushing-like member whose side walls are preferably provided with at least one outwardly projecting retention barb adapted for secure embedment into the inner side wall surfaces of a picket member when the assembly is inserted therein. The legs of the cap member upon which the clip is installed are very stiff by virtue of being reinforced by plates that resist deflection of the legs when inserted in the clip. The reinforcement plates are preferably dimensioned to inhibit inward flexure of the side walls of the clip and ensure embedment of the retention barb into the picket member.

A clip-on assembly that can resist detachment of a plastic picket cap member from a plastic picket member when significant pulling force is applied to the cap member. The assembly includes a single clip including an upwardly bowed central portion joined to first and second upwardly extending end portions. The end portions have at least one outwardly projecting retention barb adapted for secure embedment into the inner side wall surfaces of a picket member when the assembly is inserted therein. The legs of the cap member upon which the clip is installed are very stiff by virtue of being reinforced by plates that resist deflection of the legs when inserted in the clip.

A clip-on picket fence cap assembly that can resist detachment of a plastic picket cap member from a plastic picket member when significant pulling force is applied to the cap member. The legs of the cap member upon which the clips are installed are very stiff by virtue of being reinforced by gussets that resist deflection of the legs when inserted in a picket. The assembly includes metal clips having outer surfaces that are convex curvilinear in shape that enhances their strength and resistance to deformation. The outer surface of each clip is preferably provided with at least one outwardly projecting retention means adapted for secure embedment into the inner wall surfaces of a picket member when the cap assembly is inserted therein.
