Landscape Timber System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240040974 titled 'Landscape Timber System
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an improved landscape timber system that includes a spike and an adjustable length adapter. The adjustable length adapter is designed to receive an end portion of the landscape timber body, allowing for the overall length of the timber to be changed by shortening or elongating it. When the adjustable length adapter is fitted onto the landscape timber, it creates an aesthetic edge.
- The adjustable length adapter allows for easy modification of the landscape timber's length.
- The spike includes an adjustable length adapter with wings that converge towards a common pointed end for driving into the ground.
- The wings of the adjustable length adapter are equally radially spaced and form an elongated body, providing improved rigidity to the spike.
- The spike and adjustable length adapter have a polygonal configuration, further enhancing the rigidity of the spike and pointed end.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Landscaping and gardening projects that require adjustable length timber structures.
- Construction projects that involve creating aesthetic edges or borders using landscape timbers.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Simplifies the process of adjusting the length of landscape timbers, eliminating the need for cutting or joining multiple pieces.
- Provides a secure and rigid spike for driving landscape timbers into the ground.
Benefits of this technology:
- Easy and convenient modification of landscape timber length.
- Creates an aesthetic edge when the adjustable length adapter is fitted onto the timber.
- Improved rigidity and stability of the spike and pointed end for secure installation.
Original Abstract Submitted
an improved landscape timber system including a spike and an adjustable length adapter. in one embodiment of the adjustable length adapter, the adjustable length adapter has one end that is configured to receive an end portion of the landscape timber body for changing the overall length, shortening or elongating, of a landscape timber. once the adjustable length adapter is fitted onto the landscape timber an aesthetic edge is produced. in one embodiment of the spike, the spike has an adjustable length adapter with a first end, an opposite end, and a plurality of equally radially spaced wings forming an elongated body. the opposite end defines a pointed end for driving into the earth, where the wings of the adjustable length adapter converge toward a common point. the radially spaced wings define a polygonal configuration for improved rigidity of the spike and pointed end.
