FENCE-POST.
Speeicatono'f Letters Patent.
'Patented Aug. '26, 1913.
Application filed November 4, 1912. Serial No. 729,516.
To all whom if may concern.'
Be it known that I, JOHN G. RUSSELL, a. citizen of the United States, residing at Farmington, in the county of St. Franco-is and State of Missouri, have invented a new and useful Fence-Post, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in fence posts and more particularly to a cement fence post having a reinforcing' element therein.
The object of the invention is the provision of a post in which the reinforcing element is used as part of the fastening means for securing the fence wires to the post.
l/Vith the foregoing and other objects in View which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invent-ion.
In the drawings: Figure l is a front elevation of the post. Fig. 2 is a cross section, and Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section.
In the drawings, the numeral 1 indicates the body of the post which is preferably formed of cement and 2 indicates a hollow metal core extending longitudinally of the post, and the core 2 is slit longitudinally as clearly shown in Fig. 2. Within the first mentioned core is a second metal core 3, the front portion of which is adapted to engage the first core 2 as clearly shown in Fig. 2. The core 3 is slit longitudinally and the edges are bent to form the flanges 4 which are adapted to textend through the slit in the core 2. The outer ends of these flanges are flush with the face of the cement post, forming a longitudinal opening in the post, protecting the edges thereof, and at the same time forming a guide for the wire fastening devices. The space between the cores 2 and 3 is filled with asphaltum 5 and the inner core 3 is also filled with asphalturn as indicated at 6. The asphaltum in the inner core extends between the fianges 4.- and is flush with the face of the body part of the post.
For securing the fence wires to the post a staple 7 is used and this staple is driven between the flanges 4 and passes through the asphaltum in the core 3 and the ends of the staple pass through the inner core and when they engage the outer core are fiared as shown at 8. -The fact that the asphaltum 5 is between the inner and outer core allows the ends of the staples to pass through the inner core but the solid backing behind the outer core will form a resistance to the ends of the staples passing through the outer core and will flare the ends as shown at 8. By constructing a post in this manner a substantial post is formed and the reinforcing element is used as part of the means for securing the wires to the post. The asphaltum 6 in the inner core also forms means for holding the staple steady and against side movement when driving.
Having fully described my invention, what is claimed is:
l. A fence post comprising a body, a hollow cylindrical core within the body, said core being slit longitudinally, a second cylindrical core within the first, flanges formed on the second core and extending through the longitudinal slit of the first core, and a filling' of asphaltum within the second core and between the two cores.
2. A fence post comprising a body, a hollow longitudinally slit cylindrical core within the body, a second longitudinally slit cylindrical core within the first, said second core being of less diameter than the first and the longitudinal edges thereof being flared and adapted to extend through the slit of the first core, and a filling of asphaltum within the second core and between thc two cores.
3. A fence post comprising a body, a hollow longitudinally slit core within said body, a second longitudinally slit core within the first core, said second core being of less diameter than the first, and engaging the first core for only a short distance of its circumference, and a filling within the second core and the space between the two cores.
4. A fence post comprising a body, a hollow longitudinally slit core within the body, a second longitudinally slit core within the first and of less diameter than the first, flanges formed on the longitudinal CII edges of the second core and adapted to pass as niy own, I have hereto ailXecl my sigthrough the slit in the first core, and through nature in the presence of two witnesses. the body to a point flush with the outer surface of the body, and a filling of plastic JOHN G' RUSSELL material within the second core and between the two cores.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing "Witnesses O. W. BLEECK, GEO. C. FORSTER.
Copies of this patent may be obtained for iive cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents, Washington, D. C.
