Description

Sliding device and fence with the sliding device

The present invention relates to a sliding device and a fence with the sliding device, in particular to a sliding device capable of hanging objects and having a large sliding range, and a fence structure provided with the sliding device.

The fence is generally composed of a number of spaced upright members and at least one transverse member, and depending on the location and requirements of the application, its shape can also have different changes, generally through the horizontally extending transverse members. It surrounds a specific area and separates the area from the outside by spaced upright members arranged on the ground. Because the fence is stable and has horizontally extending and generally rope-like transverse members, sometimes dog owners will also tie leashes to the transverse members to temporarily confine the dog around the fence or allow the dog to use the fence. Perform gatekeeping tasks for the stronghold. In the case where the dog does not run around, the owner often hopes that the dog can get as much space as possible. Therefore, the leash will be set on the cross member in a slip knot manner. The set end can slide along the transverse member to allow the dog to obtain a greater range of movement. However, because the transverse member is divided into many sections by the upright members arranged at intervals, the set end can only be blocked by the upright member. Moving between a short paragraph of paragraphs greatly limits the sliding range of the sleeve end, so there is still room for improvement.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a sliding device that can slide along the fence in a large range.

Therefore, the sliding device of the present invention defines a separation direction and a height direction that are perpendicular to each other. The sliding device includes a pulley frame, a straight stopper pivoted on the pulley frame, a pulley pivotably provided on the pulley frame, and a pulley frame that faces downward along the height direction from the bottom surface of the pulley frame An extended hanging piece and a reset piece arranged on the pulley frame. The pulley frame includes a first end and a second end spaced apart from the first end along the height direction. The straight stopper is rotatably disposed on the first end and extends to the second end along the height direction. The rotation axis of the vertical limiting member is parallel to the separation direction, and the vertical limiting member cooperates with the pulley frame to surround an installation space. The pulley is located in the installation space, and the rotating shaft is parallel to the separation direction. The resetting member is used for resetting the straight limiting member relative to the pulley frame.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a fence that can be installed with the aforementioned sliding device.

Therefore, the fence of the present invention defines a surrounding direction, a separation direction, and a height direction that are mutually perpendicular to each other. The fence includes at least one partition unit and at least one sliding device as described above. The at least one partition unit includes a plurality of upright members spaced apart from each other along the surrounding direction, a plurality of transverse support rods respectively fixed on the upright member, and a transverse member extending along the surrounding direction and connecting the transverse support rods. The transverse member is located above the transverse struts along the height direction, and is located outside the upright members along the separation direction. The pulley of the at least one sliding device is located above the cross member along the height direction and is in rolling contact with the cross member. The at least one sliding device can slide along the transverse member, and the vertical limiter will be pushed to rotate by any transverse strut. At this time, the gap between the first end and the second end can be used for the The passage of the transverse support rod enables the at least one sliding device to pass and continue to slide along the transverse member.

The effect of the present invention is that the hanging part of the sliding device can be used to fasten the leash of the dog. Through the rolling contact with the cross member through the roller, the sliding device can be pulled along by the dog or the user. When the transverse member moves, when it encounters any transverse strut, the vertical limiter will be pushed by the transverse strut to rotate and open, so that the gap between the first end and the second end is opened, and the The lateral struts pass between the gaps without being obstructed, and the lateral member is located on the outside of the upright members, so the sliding device will not be hindered by the upright members when moving, so that the sliding The device can go over the lateral struts and slide freely on the lateral member, so that the movable space of the dog is greatly increased, thereby solving the conventional problem.

Before the present invention is described in detail, it should be noted that in the following description, similar elements are represented by the same numbers.

1 and 2 are the first embodiment of the new type of fence. First, define a surrounding direction A, a height direction B, and a separation direction C that are perpendicular to each other. The fence includes a partition unit 1 and a sliding device 2. The partition unit 1 includes a plurality of upright members 11 spaced apart from each other along the surrounding direction A and inserted on the ground, a plurality of lateral struts 12 respectively fixed on the upright member 11 and each extending along the partition direction C, and an edge The surrounding direction A extends and connects the transverse members 13 of the transverse struts 12. The transverse member 13 is located above the transverse struts 12 along the height direction B, and is located outside the upright members 11 along the separation direction C. In the first embodiment, the cross member 13 is a steel cable, but it can also be other elements as required.

Referring to Figures 2, 3, and 4, the sliding device 2 includes a pulley frame 21 surrounding the cross member 13, and a vertical limit rotatably disposed on the pulley frame 21 and whose rotation axis is parallel to the separation direction C Positioning member 22, a pulley 23 pivotally disposed on the pulley frame 21 with a rotation axis parallel to the separation direction C, a hanging member 24 extending downward from the bottom surface of the pulley frame 21 along the height direction B, and a A reset member 25 arranged on the pulley frame 21 and used for resetting the straight limiting member 22 relative to the pulley frame 21. The pulley frame 21 is generally C-shaped, and thus includes a first end 211 and a second end 212 spaced apart from the first end 211 along the height direction B. A guide groove 213 extending along the surrounding direction A is formed on the second end 212. The straight stopper 22 is disposed on the first end 211 and extends along the height direction B to the second end 212, and cooperates with the pulley frame 21 to surround an installation space through which the transverse member 13 passes 214. The vertical limiting member 22 is located at the same height position as the horizontal struts 12 in the height direction B. It should be particularly noted that the first end 211 can be located above the second end 212 as shown in the drawings of this embodiment, but it can also be configured in reverse according to requirements (that is, the first end 211 is located on the second end). Below the two ends 212). The straight limiting member 22 includes a plate portion 221 pivotally connected to the first end 211, and a guide tenon portion 222 protruding from the plate portion 221 toward the second end 212 and located in the guide groove 213, And an anti-collision roller 223 pivoted on the board portion 221. The plate portion 221 surrounds and defines a mounting groove 224 penetrating along the surrounding direction A, the anti-collision roller 223 is disposed in the mounting groove 224 and the rotation axis is parallel to the separation direction C. 2 and 5, it should be particularly noted that the cross section of the guide tenon portion 222 can be in addition to the configuration shown in FIG. 2 or the configuration shown in FIG. 5, wherein the cross section is a circle. In a shape design, the guide tenon portion 222 can be a cylinder or a sphere, and the guide groove 213 is designed to correspond to the outer shape of the guide tenon portion 222. Refer to Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4 again. The pulley 23 is located above the horizontal struts 12 along the height direction B, and forms an outer ring groove 231 recessed inward from the outer circumferential surface. The outer ring groove 231 is for the cross member 13 to pass through, so that the pulley 23 and the The cross member 13 is in rolling contact. In this embodiment, the restoring member 25 is a torsion spring that surrounds the pivot of the straight limiting member 22 (because it is blocked, only a dotted line indicates its setting position), and its two ends are respectively fixed to the straight On the limiting member 22 and the first end 211.

Referring to Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 4, the hanging member 24 can be used to hook a dog tether D or a basket E. When the dog pulls the sliding device 2 (or the user through the tether D) When the basket E is pulled to drive the sliding device 2), the sliding wheel 23 is in rolling contact with the cross member 13 so that the sliding device 2 can slide along the cross member 13. When encountering any transverse strut 12 extending along the separation direction C and transversely obstructing the front, the anti-collision roller 223 will roll in contact with the transverse strut 12, and thus be supported by the transverse strut 12 as shown in FIG. 4 12 is pushed unidirectionally along the surrounding direction A, and the plate portion 221 is rotated from perpendicular to the surrounding direction A to a position parallel to the surrounding direction A (as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 4), so that the first end 211 When a gap is generated between the second end 212 and the second end 212, the lateral support rod 12 can pass the sliding device 2 along the aforementioned gap, so that the sliding device 2 continues to move in the surrounding direction A after passing over the lateral support rod 12. In the foregoing process, when the vertical limiting member 22 rotates from a vertical state to a horizontal state, the resetting member 25 will accumulate elastic force, and force the vertical limiting member 22 to be forced after the vertical limiting member 22 is no longer stressed. The limit piece 22 is reset. It should be particularly noted that when the straight limiting member 22 is not rotated and opened, the guide tenon portion 222 is located in the guiding groove 213, so that it can be ensured that the transverse member 13 cannot push the straight portion along the separating direction C. The stopper 22 further ensures that the transverse member 13 is located in the installation space 214. The anti-collision roller 223 is usually made of rubber, plastic, or other materials with an impact-absorbing effect, which can prevent the plate portion 221 from directly hitting the lateral support rod 12 to prevent the vertical limiting member 22 or the lateral support rod 12 It is damaged due to direct impact, and at the same time, the process of pushing and opening the straight limiting member 22 is smoother through rolling contact. When the straight limiting member 22 rotates, the guide tenon portion 222 will move out of the guide groove 213. The guide groove 213 can be designed to be closed at one end, so that the guide tenon portion 222 can be stopped when reset, or a stop can be designed on the pulley frame 21 to ensure that the straight stop 22 can be reset accurately. position.

The present invention allows the dog tether D to not be blocked by the upright members 11 and the lateral struts 12, but can move freely along the lateral member 13, so that the dog can obtain a larger space for movement. When the user needs to harvest fruits around the orchard surrounded by the fence, a basket E can be set on the hanging member 24, so that the sliding device 2 can make the basket E along the The movement of the transverse member 13 allows the user to flexibly move the basket E to different positions to place the harvested fruits, so that the user does not need to carry the basket E or place the basket E on the ground. The support of the fence saves the effort spent when moving the basket E.

6 and 7, it is a second embodiment of a new type of fence. The second embodiment is substantially the same as the first embodiment. The difference is that: the fence includes a plurality of The sliding device 2, and the fence also includes a connecting member 3 extending along the surrounding direction A and connecting the sliding devices 2 as shown in FIG. 6. Through the connecting piece 3, a plurality of sliding devices 2 can be connected in series to strengthen the hanging weight (or the pulling force of the dog) that the sliding devices 2 can carry. The connecting pieces 3 can be designed to be detachable according to requirements. This allows the user to assemble different numbers of sliding devices 2 according to the current needs. When the connecting member 3 is located above the sliding devices 2 as shown in FIG. 7, the fence may also include a shutter 4 covering the connecting member 3. The shutter 4 can shield the sliding devices 2 to prevent the basket E hanging below the sliding devices 2 from being exposed to the sun. The larger-area shutter 4 can also be used as a shelter for dogs from wind and rain. Shelter.

Refer to Figures 8 and 9, which are a third embodiment of a new type of fence. This third embodiment is substantially the same as the first embodiment, except that: the fence includes a plurality of partition units 1 and also includes The plurality of branching units 5 arranged at the confluence of three or more dividing units 1 will be described below in the form of three dividing units 1 first. Each branching unit 5 includes an adaptor rod 51 extending along the height direction B, and a diverter 54 pivoted on the adaptor rod 51 and whose rotation axis extends along the surrounding direction A. Two of the partition units 1 are located on the same side of the branch unit 5 along the surrounding direction A, and the other partition unit 1 is located on the opposite side of the branch unit 5. The diverter 54 has a plurality of base portions 541 connected to the rotating shaft, and a plurality of rail portions 542 respectively protruding on the base portions 541 and extending in different paths along the surrounding direction A. The diverter 54 can be rotated to connect the two ends of one of the rail parts 542 to the transverse members 13 of the two partition units 1 located on both sides of the branch unit 5, that is, by rotating the base plate part 541, different paths can be selected The characteristic rail part 542, and the rail part 542 is connected to the transverse members 13 of the two partition units 1, so as to achieve the effect of switching paths. In this way, the sliding device 2 can be moved to one of the other two partition units 1 by the user's pulling, so that the sliding device 2 can choose one of the way to pass on the branch road. In the third embodiment, the fence can not only be looped around in a ring, but also can be designed with bifurcated branches. These bifurcated branches can be used to temporarily store the sliding device 2 or be used as a maintenance station. Improve setting flexibility.

10 and 11, it is a fourth embodiment of a new type of fence. This fourth embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment, except that: the sliding device 2 also includes a The brake mechanism 28 on the pulley frame 21. The brake mechanism 28 includes a bracket 281 connected to the pulley frame 21, two clamping arms 282 pivoted on the bracket 281 and extending downwardly curved along the height direction B, and two clamping arms 282 are respectively arranged on the clamping arms 282 and Brake pads 283 located on opposite sides of the transverse member 13 along the separation direction C, a brake cable 284 connected to one of the clamp arms 282 at one end, and a brake cable 284 connected to the other end of the brake cable 284 and can be held by the user Press the controlled control handle 285. When the user wants to ensure that the sliding device 2 is stationary, he can press the control handle 285 to pull the brake wire 284, and the brake wire 284 will pull the corresponding clamp arm 282 and rotate it, which will cause The brake pads 283 on the clamping arms 282 approach each other, and finally the brake pads 283 clamp the cross member 13 to achieve the effect of braking and stopping the sliding device 2. The brake wire 284 can extend outward and be located beside the dog tether D or the storage basket E (please refer to Figure 1), so that the user can reach out and grasp and control it, so as to prevent the dog from rushing or the storage basket E on the downhill section The situation of sliding by itself. In addition, when the fence includes a plurality of sliding devices 2, the braking mechanism 28 can be provided on only one of the sliding devices 2 as shown in FIG. 11, that is, the user can replace the sliding device with the braking mechanism 28 as required Move the device 2 to avoid the complexity of the mechanism and produce a modular effect.
