FENCE.
Patented Mar. 11, 1913.
GEORGE H MOMULLEN, OF MAIIVERN, PENNSYLVANIA.
FENCE.
Spcoitlcattoaot Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 11, 19.13.
Application tiled June 26, 1912. Serial No. 705,910.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, Gsonos H. MCMULLEN,
a citizen of the United States, residin at Malvern, in the county of Chester and tate of Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Fences, of which the followlll" is a specification.
ily invention relates more particularly to a post having improved means for securing thereto the wires of which the fence is composed.
The primary object of my improvements is to provide a simple and inexpensive post that can be (11" 'en has a firm engagement with the earth, and is braced against bending strains, in combination with simple, inexpensive and convenient means for fixing wires thereto in a secure and efficient manner.
The nature and characteristic features of my improvements will more fully appear from the following description and the accompanying drawin s in il ustration thereof.
In the drawings, igure 1 is a side elevation of a fence embodying my improvements; Fig. 2 is an elevation of a section of a post in combination with a wire and means for securing it to the post; Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view of the construction shown in Fig. 2; and Fig. 4 is a transverse sectional view of the post with means for fastening the wire thereto shown in lan.
As illustrated in the drawings, t e posts A are made from angle iron out to roper length and havin the loo itudinal ed es of their legs a tame inward y to form anges (1. extending substantially at right angles to the respective legs preferably from the tops of the posts approximately to the ground line.
The fence wires 1) are placed against the flanges a of the posts where they are socured by fasteners C. These fasteners are suitably formed from approximately rectangular plates adapted to approximately fit within the members a and a and have their forward corners turned inwardl to form hooks for engaging the wires b, laf eral corners c which bear against thezflanges a, and rear corners 0 between which and the motion between the l s of the posts nails l) are driven so as to ti t the fasteners and press the corners 0 against the flanges a,
which act as fulcrums therefor, and draw the hooks 0 against the wires 1) so that the latter are firmly pressed against the flanges (1 These fasteners permit the wires to be fastened at any desired position with equal facility, securely hold them in the position in which they are placed, the attachment is very readily made, a desired dissociation can be effected without difliculty, and the .parts, as well as the operations, are simple,
inexpensive, and efficient.
The post is inexpensive, being readily formed from common angle iron stock, and the flanges not only considerably increase the stiffness of the post in its original form but also provide improved bearing means for preventing the lateral movement of the post.
Having described my invention, I claim:
1. A fence comprising a post having flanges, a wire, a member having a part enagmg said wire and bearings engaging said anges, and adevice movable longitudinally of said post for tilting said member and causing it to press said wire against said post.
2. A fence comprising an angle iron section having edges of its legs turned inwardly, a wire on aging said edges, a memher having a llOOC on aging said wire and bearings engaging sai edges, and means between said angle and member whereby said hook is caused to press said wire against said edges.
8. A fence comprising an angle iron section having inturned flanges on the legs thereof, a wire, a fastener of approximately quadrilateral form engaged within said section so that corners thereof bear against said flanges, said fastener having a hook thereon engaging said wire, and a nail driven between said fastener and angle section so as to force said corners a ainst said flanges and said hook against saiii wire.
4. A fence comprising a )ost having inturned flanges, a wire, a fastener having corners engaging said flanges and a corner heat so as to enga c said wire, and a nail drivenbetween said post and fastener so as to tilt the same and draw said wire against. said post.
- 5. A fence comprising a post having inlOU member, whereby saidme'mberis turned on Witnesses:
turned flanges, a member having bearings 'In witness whereof I have hereunto set fnlcrumed 'onv-- 'said"flanges-within saidipost my name this 25th day of June, 1912, in the and a. hook, a wirefengaged-by ;seid -inember presence of the subscribing witnesses.
