20150292234 | HORIZONTAL CABLE RAIL BARRIER - A barrier panel is formed of a first vertical rail member and a second vertical rail member mounted to and extending between top and bottom rail members. At least one vertical support member is also mounted to and extends between the top and bottom rail members. The first and second vertical rail members include first and second openings, respectively, spaced apart along their lengths. Horizontal cables are mounted to and extend between the first vertical rail member and second vertical rail member. A first end of each horizontal cable is secured within one of the first openings in the first vertical rail member and a second end of each horizontal cable is secured within an opposite one of the second openings in the second vertical rail member. Each cable further passes through an additional opening provided in the vertical support member (which is positioned between the first and second vertical rail members). | 10-15-2015 |
20150292233 | VERTICAL CABLE RAIL BARRIER - A barrier panel is formed of a first rail member and a second rail member with at least one vertical support member mounted to and extending between the first rail member and second rail member. The first rail member includes first openings spaced apart along its length. The second rail member includes second openings spaced apart along its length. Vertical cables are mounted to and extend between the first rail member and second rail member. A first end of each vertical cable is secured within one of the first openings and a second end of each vertical cable is secured within an opposite one of the second openings. | 10-15-2015 |
20140332741 | INSTALLABLE TOP ACCENT PANELS FOR A BARRIER SYSTEM - An accent top panel is selectably installed on a base panel. The installation is made using one of a number of techniques, including, press-fit, clamp fit and clip fit. The base panel can be one of a fence panel, railing panel or gate. | 11-13-2014 |
20130175488 | BRACKET FOR SUPPORTING ATTACHMENT OF THE END OF A RAILING MEMBER TO A VERTICAL MEMBER - A rail receiving member includes a rail receiving member having a bottom wall, a plurality of side walls, and a back wall, and is configured to receive and connect to an end of a rail member. The back wall of that rail receiving member may be attached to a vertical member and covered by a cap. In an adjustable railing bracket installation, a hinge assembly can be selectively coupled to the rail receiving member in at least two orientations, each of which allowing for rotation of the rail receiving member about a hinge axis of the hinge assembly. A first orientation permits rotation of the rail receiving member about the hinge axis of the hinge assembly in a vertical plane. A second orientation permits rotation of the rail receiving member about the hinge axis of the hinge assembly in a horizontal plane. | 07-11-2013 |
20130155686 | ACCENT LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR DECKS, PATIOS AND INDOOR/OUTDOOR SPACES - An accent lighting source utilizes a light source having a metal heat dissipating housing with an aperture within which at least one point light source, such as from an LED, is mounted. The aperture is closed by a lens/diffuser structure. The light source is mounted within a housing for the accent light source. The housing has a design configuration that supports one or more of a preferred accent lighting installation on a horizontal or vertical surface. Exemplary horizontal surfaces include the top of a post member, a deck surface, a stair surface or an overhanging or ceiling surface. Exemplary vertical surfaces include a stair riser and the side of post or wall surface. | 06-20-2013 |
20130153844 | APPARATUS FOR COUPLING BETWEEN THE ENDS OF TWO PIPE PIECES WITH A SELECTABLE ANGLE FORMED THEREBETWEEN - A connector joins two handrail ends to each other at a user selectable angle. This is accomplished by forming the connector to support attachment to the handrail ends while providing a pivoting joint between a first coupling member (configured to mount to one handrail end) and a second coupling member (configured to mount to another handrail end). The pivoting joint is provided by a selectively tightenable ball and socket joint. The selective tightening operation is supported by a pivotally mounted threaded interconnect shaft. The shaft passes through a slot opening formed in the first coupling member at the ball portion of the ball and socket joint and is threadedly received in a threaded opening formed in the second coupling member at the socket portion of the ball and socket joint. | 06-20-2013 |
20090146122 | INSTALLABLE TOP ACCENT PANELS FOR A BARRIER SYSTEM - An accent top panel is selectable installed on a base panel. The installation is made using one of a number of techniques, including, press-fit, clamp fit and clip fit. The base panel can be one of a fence panel, railing panel or gate. | 06-11-2009 |
20090065755 | BARRIER SYSTEM - A barrier is formed from at least one elongate rail and at least one vertical upright member. The elongate rail includes a web and a pair of opposed side walls which extend from the web to define a rail channel. Each upright member includes an aperture formed therein. In one implementation, a pin extending from a clip is inserted into the aperture, and the upright member, with the clip, is at least partially situated within the rail channel, wherein the clip is welded to an inside surface of the rail channel. In another implementation, a pin is inserted through the aperture, and the upright member, with the pin, is at least partially situated within the rail channel, wherein opposed ends of the pin are welded to an inside surface of the opposed side walls of the rail channel. The pin and aperture form a pivot point allowing the upright member to rotate with respect to the elongate rail. In a fence implementation, this allows the barrier to be racked in order to follow undulating terrain. | 03-12-2009 |
