WIRE-FENCE CONTROLLER.
To all whom t may concern Be it known that I, HENRY A. Coi-IRS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Currie, in the county of Murray and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in VVire-Fence Controllers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates t-o an improvement in fence posts, the object being to provide a fence of such a construction as to take up the slack in the strands of wire which connect the posts.
Another object is to so arrange the takeup mechanism that the same may be easily operated by means of a wrench.
InA the drawings: Figure 1 is a side elevation of the device. Fig. 2 a sectional view, Fig. 3 a detail view of one of the drum members removed from the post, Fig. 4 a detailed view of the wire securing member.
In the drawings: 10 designates a hollow post member provided with a cement base 11. Arranged on said post are spools 12 on which t a collar 13 one face of which is provided with the ratchet teeth 14 the barrel 15 of the spool extending to a point adjacent said ratchet teeth. A sleeve 16 is adapted to embrace the post said sleeve eX- tending within the ratchet collar and abutting the end portion of the barrel. This sleeve is rigidly connected to the post and is adapted to support a dog 17 which engages with the teeth on the sleeve.
In operation the wire is connected to the attaching device 18 which is secured to the spool. When it is desired to tighten the wire a Spanner wrench is made to grip the spool, the spool is then rotated until the wire has been sufliciently tightened. The dog 17 prevents the spool from unwinding.
Any number of these devices may be positioned on the post their number depending upon the number of the strands.
The attaching device 18 consists of' a screw threaded shank portion and the arms 18', between which the wire is adapted to be slipped, the barb of the wire being adapted to engage the arms 18 or in the event that Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed August 15, 1910.
Patented July 2, 1912.
Serial No. 577,241.
barbed wire is not used, the wire is twisted around said arms.
From the foregoing it will be seen that the wire strands may be quickly and conveniently tightened without the hands of the operator coming in cont-act with the wire.
What is claimed is:
1. The combination with a rounded post, of a pair of flanged collars rotatably mounted thereon and having their flanges in engagement with each other, wire holding members carried by said collars, a similarly shaped flanged collar fitting over the end of each of the collars and secured thereto, said second collar having a toothed edge, a securing collar mounted on the post in engagement with the end of each of the first mentioned flanged collars, means for securing the securing collars in adjusted position on the post, and spring pressed dogs pivoted to the securing collars to engage the teeth of the toothed flanged collars to lock the same against rotative movement.
2. The combination with a tubular supporting post, of a sleeve secured thereon, a collarvrotatably mounted on the post and resting on said sleeve, said collar having an outwardly extending peripheral 4iiange formed on its upper end, a similarly shaped collar mounted in reverse posit-ion on the post and having its flange resting on the flange of t-he first mentioned collar, a sleeve secured on the post for retaining the collars against upward movement, a flanged collar having a toothed edge secured on each of the other collars with its toothed edge projecting over the adjacent securing sleeve, spring pressed dogs carried by each sleeve for engaging the toothed collar to prevent rotation of the same in but one direction, and wire gripping members secured to and projecting from the collars.
In testimony whereof I afIiX my signature, in the presence of two witnesses.
