Smart Summary: A new type of fence frame can be easily set up and taken down. When it is unfolded, the top and bottom parts swing into place and lock together to create a strong support. This design makes the fence more durable, especially between the vertical rods at the top. Compared to regular fence frames, it has a simpler structure and is better at resisting damage from outside forces. Once the frame is unlocked, it can be folded away for storage. 🚀 TL;DR
The present invention discloses a new type of fence frame and when the fence frame is unfolded, the upper section and lower section swing until linear alignment and are then locked by a locking member to form a support rod, such that the structural strength of the fence frame, especially the part between the adjacent two vertical rods corresponding to the upper frame, is enhanced, and the fence frame can be folded after the upper section and lower section are unlocked. Compared with traditional ones, the present invention has a simple structure as a whole and, after the fence frame is unfolded, the part between the adjacent two vertical rods corresponding to the upper frame has a high structural strength to withstand deformation or break under external pressure.
