  • Patent number: 11979969
    Abstract: An electric fence energizer comprising an energy storage capacitor (2), which is able to be discharged into the primary (3) of a step-up transformer, the secondary (4) of which is connected to the electric fence, and comprising an internal electronic control device for controlling the discharge pulses from the capacitor (2) to the electric fence. The capacitor (2) is discharged into a circuit consisting, in series and in the following order, of a first electronic actuator (5), followed by the primary (3) of the transformer, followed by a second electronic actuator (6), the opening and closing of each one of the two electronic actuators (5, 6) being able to be controlled, and each one of said electronic actuators being able, during discharging, to interrupt the discharge pulses from the capacitor (2) into the primary (3) of the transformer, and then to permit said pulses.

  • Patent number: 7451964
    Abstract: Fence post (1) having a point portion (2) and a principal portion (3). The principal portion is provided with connection elements to assemble a plurality of posts (1, 1?). The connection elements include assembly elements (81, 82) constituted by a female element and a male element. The male element is connected to the principal portion by means of a spacer element (83) connected to the principal portion. The assembly elements permit connecting head to tail two posts to form a pair of posts. The connecting elements also include through holes (71, 72) located on the principal portion. The through holes permit associating on connecting rods several pairs of posts.
