ABSTRACT:
A jet blast deflector fence designed to present a cleaner, simpler, aesthetically pleasing appearance, the deflector fence comprised of simple frames which include only two structural members, a curved rib channel member securedly and hingedly attached to an airport apron and a vertical King post of angle iron which is rigidly secured at its lower end and hingedly attached at its upper end to the channel. A corrugated deflection surface overlies and is fastened to the curved rib members. Because of the respective hinged attachments of the rib members to the apron and the King posts to the rib members the distance between the lower end of the channel member and the King post can be adjusted to reduce the apron space required for the fence. One or more ventilating slots are included to reduce turbulence in order to improve deflection performance.
