A combinative fence assembly includes two posts (1), a plurality of heighteners (2) and a rail (3). Each of the posts (1) has a combining side (10). The two combining sides (10) of the two posts are arranged at an interval and face each other. Each combining side (10) is formed with an inward trough. The heighteners (2) are separately embedded in the troughs (11). The rail (3) is connected between the two combining sides (10) of the two posts (1). Two ends of each rail (3) are separately embedded in the two troughs (11) of the two posts (1) and superposed on at least one of the heighteners (2). Thereby, a fence can be constructed depending on actual requirements.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Technical Field

The invention relates to fences, particularly to a combinative fence assembly.

2. Related art

Due to development of human civilization, architecture is used to construct a living space, such as houses, roads and various buildings. They build everyone's individual living field between people. Fences are also used to construct boundaries between people and animals.
Conventional fences are modularized to satisfy users' various requirements, but their structures are too complicated to be easily assembled. Also, such a complicated structure cannot satisfy some specific requirements such as fences in a ranch because it is difficult to match natural environment.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

A primary object of the invention is to provide a combinative fence assembly, which has a relatively simple structure to be simply assembled depending on actual requirements.
Another object of the invention is to provide a combinative fence assembly, which can be made of a wood-like material. This can offer sufficient strength of protection to meet a requirement of ranch such as preventing the fence from being broken by collision of animals.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a combinative fence assembly, which is made of plastic to be simply manufactured, transported and assembled.
To achieve the above objects, the combinative fence assembly of the invention includes two posts, a plurality of heighteners and a rail. Each of the posts has a combining side. The two combining sides are arranged at an interval face each other. Each combining side is formed with an inward trough. The heighteners are separately embedded in the troughs. The rail is connected between the two combining sides of the two posts. Two ends of each rail are separately embedded in the two troughs of the two posts and superposed on at least one of the heighteners. Thereby, a fence can be constructed depending on actual requirements.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Please refer to FIGS. 1 and 2. The invention provides a combinative fence assembly and includes two posts 1, a plurality of heighteners 2 and a rail 3.
The two posts 1 are arranged to face each other at an interval required or corresponding to length of the rail 3. Each of the posts 1 is an upright rod and has a combining side 10 for being embedded by the rail 3. The two combining sides 10 are arranged at an interval face each other. The combining side 10 is formed with an inward trough 11 for being embedded by the heighteners 2 and the rail 3 to form a fence structure. The number of the posts 1, heighteners 2 or rail 3 may be increased depending on actual requirements.
The heighteners 2 are bar-like and separately embedded in the trough 11 for supporting the rail 3 between two posts 1 to a desired height position or spacing two adjacent rails 3.
The rail 3 is a rod-like body and is connected between the two posts 1. The rail 3 can be supported by the heighteners 2 to a certain height between two posts 1. The rails 3 can be interlaced with the heighteners 2 in the two troughs 11 of the two posts 1. As a result, the number of the rails 3 can be increased to enhance a protective effect.
Please refer to FIG. 3. Two ends of the rail 3 are separately embedded in the two troughs 11 of the two posts 1 and abut against an inner side of the trough 11. The rail 3 is made of flexible plastic. The rail 3 can be prevented from escaping the trough 11 by two ends of the rail 3 abutting against an inner side of the trough 11. In detail, each of two lateral sides of the trough 11 is formed with a slot 110 and each of two ends of the rail 3 is formed with an insert 30. The insert 30 may be formed by one or more inserting elements penetrating the rail 3 and separately protruding from two surfaces thereof. The inserting element may be a bar. When the two ends of the rail 3 are embedded into the trough 11, the insert 30 is also embedded into the slots 110 to form a cross connection to enhance connecting strength. Also, the heightener 2 may be further formed with wings 20 corresponding to the slots 110 to secure the rail 3.
In order to be convenient to be made of plastic and to reinforce structural strength of plastic materials, the inside of the post 1 is formed with a longitudinal hollow portion 12. The hollow portion 12 is filled with a filler 120. The filler 120 may be a material with high density or strength such as metal and may be a hollow rod-like frame. The frame may be filled with concrete to increase weight. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, when all required rails 3 have been disposed between posts 1, the top end of the post 1 may be provided with an end cap 4 to cover the top end. The bottom end of the post 1 may be provided with a seat 5. The seat 5 has a flange 50 encompassing the bottom end of the post 1. As a result, a required fence can be obtained as shown in FIG. 6.
As shown in FIG. 7, in another embodiment of the invention, the posts 1 are erected on the ground by the seats 5. As shown in FIG. 8, in still another embodiment of the invention, the posts 1 are erected by inserting the filler 120 into the ground.
As shown in FIG. 9, in yet another embodiment of the invention, a cover roof 6 is added over the posts 1. The cover roof 6 includes poles 60 corresponding to and separately connected to the posts 1 and a cover 61 supported by the poles 60. The cover 61 may be canvas or sun visor.
It will be appreciated by persons skilled in the art that the above embodiments have been described by way of example only and not in any limitative sense, and that various alterations and modifications are possible without departure from the scope of the disclosed example as defined by the appended claims.
