vide an improved apparatus of this kind by means of which the wires of a wire fence may be stretched and the apparatus prevented from becoming disarranged during such operation.
The invention further has for its object to provide an improved apparatus for stretching all the wires of a Wire fence simultaneously, which apparatus is com osed of a small number of parts which may e readily assembled and taken apart, and which will be thoroughly braced and held in firm position.
Referring to the accompanying drawing: Figure 1 is a view of a ortion of a wire fence and fence post, an a wire stretcher constructed inaccordance with this invention, and shown in o erative posit-ion. Fig. 2 is a plan view of t e parts shown. in Fig.
. 1. Fig. 3 is a detail view ofa portion of the wire stretcher with parts broken away and se arated.
he apparatus constructed in accordance with this invention consists of a standard 1 composed preferably of a vertical metallic ipe and a short transverse brace 2 at its ibwer end referably in the form of a pipe, as shown, avingla central coupling oint 2 secured to the lower end of the standard 1. The transverse brace 2 is fastened to the ground in any suitable manner as for exam le by means of the spikes8 which exteng through holes in the transverse brace 2. A screw spindle 4 pro'ects at one end through a hole in the stan ard 1 located at a suitable distance above the lower end of said pipe to bring the spindle 4 in the proper position for o eration. The inner end of the screw spin is 4 is provided with suitable means for connecting it to the clamp which is secured to the shown preferably consists of a head 5 having a hook 5' which is detachably connected wire fence and as here to a pair of rings 6 which in turn are connected to eye bolts 7 rojecting laterally from a pair of strips 8 wiiichserve as clamps for the wire fence and are clamped to a wire fence 9, as shown, by means of bolts 8' and nuts 9.. The wire fence 9 is shown as bearing against a fence post 10 and is stretched f over the same by means of the screw spindle 4 drawing on the clamps 8, the spindle 4 being operated by a crank handle 11 having a circular head 12 in threaded engagement with the spindle 4 and bearing against a boss 13 inte ml with the standard 1. The standard 1 1s braced b means of a rod 14 having its outer end firmed with. a 'shar point 15 adaptedto engage the post 10, an
has its inner endsecured to an'elbow joint 16 swiveled to the upper end of the standard 1 so as to permit of the rod 14 which is located at an incline, as shown, to be adjusted. to the proper osition to engage the post 10 and act as a 1. The lower end of the standard 1 is braced preferably by means of a longitudinal strip end abutting againstr't e 0st 10 and its other end against the coup ing joist .2 of
ar 1 may the transverse brace 2; The stan be providedwith another hole and boss 13 race for the standard sis in order to permit the screw spindle 4 to be laced in a different position where it is to lie used with a wire fence of different width than that shown.
It will be seen from the foregoing that a wire stretcher is provided which is constructed with a small number of parts and so 17 which lies uponthe ground and has one coupling at the Upperen'd 'of said standard,
standard being formed of a metallic pipe an upwardly inclined bracing arm extending wiih a transverse brace at its lower end. fr'oln said inclined coupling, and a Wire enllnving described the invention, what I f ga' ing means carried b said standard! which will be strong and stable owin to the 5 claim is n testimony whereo I hereunto afiix .my 5
