Patent number: 9297166Abstract: A cladded structure having rows of spaced-apart fixing devices with engagement members mounted to the support structure for supporting rows of partially overlapping cladding boards. Each row of cladding boards being supported by a respective row of fixing devices. Each cladding board having a recess being provided in and along its rear surface into which the engagement members of the fixing devices engage to support the cladding board on the support structure. Retaining gaps are formed between sections of the upper surface of each cladding board and protruding surfaces of the fixing devices supporting the next upper adjacent cladding board, and a plurality of resiliently deformable retaining components are located in a deformed state in at least one retaining gap associated with each cladding board to exert a downward force on the cladding boards to retain them in an engaged state with their fixing devices.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2012Date of Patent: March 29, 2016Assignee: Jenkin Timber LimitedInventor: Richard James Carbines

Patent number: 8794598Abstract: A fence (10) comprising at least two spaced-apart substantially upright fence posts (12a, 12b) anchored into the ground or other fixed structure and a stack of at least two boards (14) extending between each pair of adjacent fence posts. Each board (14) extends in a substantially horizontal orientation relative to the upright fence posts and is supported at each end by a respective fence post (12a,12b). At least one pair of retaining components (16a,16b) are provided on each fence post (12a,12b) and each pair of retaining components forms a series of cavities that are each shaped to receive and retain a respective end of a board (14) of the stack to thereby support the respective end of the board (14) at the fence post (12a, 12b).Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2009Date of Patent: August 5, 2014Assignee: Jenkin Timber LimitedInventor: Richard James Carbines

Patent number: 8381475Abstract: A fixing system (20) for securing cladding boards (28) to the framing (26) of a building in a partially overlapping relationship, each board (28) having front and rear faces with a recess (42) being provided in and along the rear face. The fixing system (20) comprises a plurality of fixing devices (30), supported by the framing (26), that are spaced apart relative to one another and arranged in rows, each row of fixing devices (30) being arranged to support a board or row of boards (28) and each fixing device (30) having an engagement portion (40) that is arranged to engage with a section of the recess (42) of a board (28) to, in co-operation with a number of other fixing devices (30) of that row also engaging with a section of the recess (42), support the board (28) in place on the framing (26).Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2007Date of Patent: February 26, 2013Assignee: Jenkin Timber LimitedInventor: Richard James Carbines
