Specification of Letters Patent No. 111,012, dated June 6, 1854.
To all 'whom/t may concern:
Kings and `State of New York, have invented an Improved Method of Constructing Lattice-Vork, Iron Fences of Corru` gated Wire, the specific nature of such im provement consisting of an improved device for fastening and securing the individual rods of a panel of corrugated wire fence to each other Without interlocking the rods themselves, whereby a more durable, economical, and elegant` article is produced at a greatly reduced expenditure of labor, &c.,` over the ordinary modes of constructing suchl fences, some of the most prominentof which are illustrated on the drawings accompanying and making part o-f this specication in which` like letters refer to like parts in all the `figures.
Figure 5 shows the method of quire any further notice, or more explanation than will be `afforded by a 'glance at that `figure. y
Fig. 6X represents a method Vof constructploy, which make as compared with straps (for equal weights of metal) a stronger fence at much less cost. This form` of lattice work fence, moreover, renders the application of rosette ornaments (so very essen- "tial to the finish of corrugated iron` of any description) comparatively fences difficult. l .i
Fig. GY shows a form of corrugated wire fence, wherein the corrugations are `secured to each other, so as to constitute a continuous panel by whipping or binding them tigether with finer wire: a method at once unsubstantial, inelegant, and troublesome.
Fig. GZ represents a method where the wires, as well as being corrugated, are inter-` twisted with a single twist, is usuallyy concealed by a rosette ornament in two parts, Adrawn partially together, from each side of the panel, by a rivet passing through f lacing straight wires, now much employed, andj the labor incident to this method, as com` pared with mine, will be too obvious to re-` l them and between the parts of the twist. Be it known that I, MATTHIAS P. CooNs, of the city of Brooklyn, in the county of;
This'method of joining the wires, beside the troubleof twisting which at the same time injures them, leaves ateach juncture a harbor for rain and snow, causing great oXidation and damage at those points, and consequent injury to the entire structure.
, These three last named methods whileappearing similar, at least in certain features, are vyet quite distinct, in nature and results, from the method I employ, and have been simply introduced as the most ready and eX- act way of distinguishing the latter from portions of the upperand lower saddle i rails, and their accompanying ornaments, and some rosettes left 0E. A, A, are the posts supporting and conning the` panel rails, b', b', the upper, and c 0^ the lowerinto `both of which are received the corrugated wires el', d. ef, e', and f', f", are the F saddles, whose purposes will be hereinafter mentioned; and a, a', are` rosettes as ornaments merely, frequently employed in thev finish of lattice, work iron fences,- but in my case beingof a particular interior form, and whileserving equally, as in the cases mentioned, the purposes of ornament,
are, moreover, indispensable portions of the structure.
l In Fig. 2,1B and C give each an end View Vof the rail with a portion of the wire,
and a rosette, beneath, and the saddle with its ornament above. At B the saddle is secured to the rail by means of `its top ornament-s, which may be screwed, or otherwise passed, through both and fastened;
that at C, from its form permitting its orf naments, ifdesired, to be cast on the saddle-which has a groove cast within it, of which the rail forms the tongue, thusneeds no otherfastening to the rail. f OfFig. 3, D and E, being segments of rosettes with the incidental wires passing through, or rather across them, `illus- .i
trate the adaptation ofmy rosette to the reception of an eXtra complement, or series,
of wires, andwhich may therefore be termed iio . wire, or ornament, as the arrow seen in Fig.
l, and at D, Fig. 3, is used, when if only for symmetry of design, a pair of rivets becomes desirable), I can introduce an additional series of wires, straight or corru# gated, for purposes of ornament or increased strength, almost Without increased expense except that of the bare material. It may be remarked that, the grooves are so cast that a certain amount of clearance is allowed where they cross the outer edges -of the rosettes(for the greater convenience of fitting different designs, &c.) and more fully to prevent the working and possible loosening of the rosettes, I have provided, on the blank, or grooved, side of such segment, the gouts, and corresponding projections, respectively o', o', and r, 7", (Figs. 3 and 4:) which,-the two segments being brought and riveted together-covering and receiving each the other, prevent,
independently, the motion, in any direction, -of the two segments upon themselves.
Fig. 4f, represents the two halves of my rosette in perspective; showing the wires, in
the one, inserted to half their diameter in the, curved grooves, the fastening rivet s', &c.
Now with the different parts thus set forth and distinguished I will describe the very simple process of construction, or the application of those parts. Taking wires of any desirable gage and length, corrugated or crimped to any suitable pattern, (by an improved process and the aid of flexible dies, not necessary here to describe) I pass the ends of those wires through holes in the upper rail, and also through corresponding holes in the lower saddle, and
the rail beneath, when they are respectively secured by riveting or' clenching. The convexities, or angles, of any two adjoining wires bein adapted in the process of corrugation to t is end, are immediately opposite to each other, in the same plane, and separated only by a small space through which the rivet to be used passes, see Fig. l, while the similar convexities von the wires at the extremities'of the panel, immediately opposite and adjoining the center of the posts, inthe lineof the panel, are received into grooves purposely cast `in the post, or, as in the example at Fig. l, are simply let into the narrow, angular, space formed by the v.interior-converging lines of the quarterfoil form of post. The wires having been Ainserted in and fastened to the rails, as mentioned, the rosettes may now be applied by placing either half of the rosette, a', beneat-h the panel, which, for the purpose of riveting, &c., is placed Hat upon an iron bench, so as to receive the wires into the corresponding grooves-see E, v Fig. B-when the other segment or half of the rosette is placed above, or over the first, their blank faces being opposite and nearly touching, and the last half receiving the wires in like manner, the two are brought ho-me to The lower saddle, as explained, having been secured to its corresponding rail, the upper saddle, as in C, Fig. 2, with its accompanying top ornaments is now slid upon its rail, or, if it be preferred, the saddle may be in form and mode of fastening as at B, Fig. 2. The saddles in all cases serving at the same time the purposes of ornamentation, concealment of the ends of the wires,
and general strengthening of both rail 'and' panel. The panels being thus far com pleted, in the factory, their erection into a fence is very simple; the posts, for instance, being such as shown in the drawing, are properly placed and secured in the ground, and being especially adapted to the purpose, by suitable openings, or mortises, for lthe rails, &c., the panel is laid between the posts, when the whole are fastened and connected by pins, or other simple fastenings (such being what I generally employ) not necessary here to especially describe.
' The fence combined in my improved sysf t5em being now completed it will be seen to possess numerous important features, among which Imay mention the ease of manufact'zure, being effected almost wholly by steam machinery and casting; the many useful purposes of my rosette, which not only fuliils the customary duties of ornament, but moreover,fin my case the very important conditions Vof yielding additional stiffness to the individual wires by their extension over comparatively, long, immovable bearings therein; the preservation of all the wires of the fence in the same, plane, giving consequently flush, and symmetric, fronts; the
capability which the rosette possesses of receiving and confining a series of wires, as previously explained; and the general security of those wires, at the places where they connect with the rosettes, from abrasurpassed in the advantageous combination of beauty, durability and economy, While Wholly free from the many evils and disadvantages which have been proved to exist in lattice Work iron fences of ordinary modes of construction, all of which involve the necessity and Very troublesome feature of inltertvvisting or fastening together of the Wires themselves, so objectionable, not only as regards labor of construction, but consequent after results, and so eifectually averted by the application of my rosette, the latter being more especially designed to that object in particular.
Having thus fully described my said invention I claim- The peculiarly constructed rivet clamp i MATTHIAS P. COONS.
