20120175578 | SECURITY FENCE FOR SWIMMING POOLS - A security fence for swimming pools is provided to be so positioned as to surround the water of a swimming pool. The security fence comprises fence sections which are linked to an alarm system. The fence sections are moveable between a non-signaling position and an alarm signaling position. When the fence sections are in the non-signaling position and a given fence section is engaged with sufficient force it is moved to the alarm signaling position thereby signaling the alarm. The foregoing prevents a user, such as a child, from entering the pool water when the alarm system has been activated. | 07-12-2012 |

20120280194 | FENCE WITH PIVOTABLE PANELS - A partition fence comprises two posts and a panel, pivotally connected between said posts by rotary joints. At least one of the rotary joints has a first joint member, connected to the post and comprising a first rotary bearing unit, and a second joint member, connected to the panel and comprising a second rotary bearing unit. One of the two rotary bearing units radially surrounds the other. Stop faces of the second joint member stop against stop faces of a first joint member when the second joint member is rotated relative to the first joint member. | 11-08-2012 |
20130001493 | Safety Barrier - It is presented a safety barrier for securing a working surface comprising a screen section ( | 01-03-2013 |
20130037770 | REMOVABLE BARRIER FOR LOCATION ON AN UPPER PORTION OF A WALL - This invention relates to a barrier for fixing to an upper portion of a wall, the barrier comprising fixing means securable to the wall, and a barrier held by the fixing means that locates above the upper portion of the wall, wherein the barrier is removable from the fixing means to allow access to the upper portion of the wall as required. In one aspect, at least a portion of the barrier is moveable relative to a remainder of the barrier and between a first position where it is located above an upper edge of the wall, and a second position where access is then provided to the upper wall edge above which the movable barrier portion was previously positioned. | 02-14-2013 |
20130119334 | MARINE BARRIER AND GATE - A marine barrier has substantially vertical panels, each having a buoyant portion, and a plurality of hinges, each hinge for elastically connecting a side of a first one of the panels to a side of an adjacent second one of the panels with an included angle therebetween, to form a buoyant continuous pleated row of panels, with the hinges arranged in first and second substantially parallel rows. An impact cable is attached to opposing ends of the pleated row of panels passing through each of the hinges in the first row of hinges. When the barrier is floating in water and a moving vessel impacts the impact cable, the impact cable deflects to transfer a force of the impact to one or more of the panels, which in turn engage the water to transfer the force of the impact to the water, to arrest the motion of the vessel. | 05-16-2013 |
20130207061 | CONVERTIBLE BARRICADE AND METHOD FOR ITS USE - The present device is a collapsible A-frame sign that can be converted into a panel that is capable of interlocking with other panels to form a physical barricade. When used alone, the device works similar to conventional A-frame sign or barrier by folding two frames hinged around a common end at the top of frames to form an A-shape allowing it to be erected in an upright position. Additionally, the device can be locked into a 180-degree angle, and joined with other identical devices to form a barricade at a height twice of the length of single frame. As a result, a group of locked devices can be used as a barricade as well as a warning signs. | 08-15-2013 |
20150069312 | FOLDABLE SAFETY BARRICADE - A safety barricade comprising a plurality of interconnected panels. Each pair of adjacent panels is hingedly coupled together with a hinge assembly. Each hinge assembly has a rotational axis offset from a vertical plane of one of the adjacent panels. The barricade is adjustable between a folded configuration wherein the panels extend in parallel planes immediately adjacent one another for storage in a confined space, such as an elevator machine room, and a deployed configuration wherein the panels are unfolded to form a barrier blocking access to a segregated work area. Each of the panels of the barricade has a different width to enable the panels to fold flat against an adjacent panel in the folded configuration. In one embodiment the barricade comprises a mounting assembly for rotatably mounting a first one of the panels to a support structure within the confined space. The mounting assembly permits vertical displacement of the barricade relative to the support structure when the barricade is moved between the folded and deployed configurations. Each panel of the barricade is symmetrical about a centerline extending between first and second side edges thereof. The barricade may thus be positioned in either a first orientation adapted for left-hand mounting on a support surface or in a second orientation inverse to the first orientation adapted for right-hand mounting on a support surface. | 03-12-2015 |
