Letters Patent No. 111,578, dated February 7, 1871.
IMPROVEMENT IN PORTABLE FENCES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of theme.
To all whom ct may concern.-
Be it known that I, Hneron SINGLAIR, {of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Portable Fences, of which the following is a full, clear, andexact description, reference being bad to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 represents a view in perspective of two panels of my improved fence in position;
Figure 2 is a-side elevation of one of the panels; and
Figures 3 and '4, opposite end elevations of said panels.
Figures 5 and 6 are side and top views of a stake used to secure the panels when in position.
Similar lettersof reference indicate corresponding.
parts. 7
My invention consists in a portable and adjustable wooden-fence, made up of panels which are constructed to lock with each other by wedge-shaped cleats and socket-strips, secured preferably in reversed order, onto the outsides of their uprights, and onto two or more of the adjacent sides ofthe main or corner posts, said panels, which are interchangeable,
erected-with facility and dispatch to lie or run in vat rious directions, including difi'erent-shaped iuclosures,
and when not required may be packed away pauelby paneL. a
Referring-to. the accompanying drawing3 A A represent two panelsof my. improved fence and B, a main or corner post.
Each of these panels is composed of end uprights a it, having pivoted to them, or their 'outsides or insides, as the case may be, the rails or longitudinal bars I) b by incansof screws or bolts passing, as at c 0, through the rails at or near their opposite ends and into or through the uprights a a, so that the panels readily adjust themselves to plain or hilly surfaces, or other irregularities of the ground, without interfering with the level or vertical position of the uprights and posts, or look of the panels and posts with each other. v
The lock of the panels with each other is effected by means of wedge-shaped cleats d d, and wedgeshaped socket-strips e e,secured on the outsides of the uprights, and of dovetail formin their transverse section, the wedge-shaped cleats d d preferably being arranged on the one of the panel uprights, and the wedge-shaped socket-strips c e on the other, and each panel being similarly provided to allow of the interchanging of the panels that are fitted into lock with each other by slipping the wedges d d of the one panel into the sockets cc of the next panel.
, The main or corner 'posts'B are similarly provided with wedge-shaped cleats d, and with wedge-shaped the posts being varied to suit difierent-shaped inclosures.
In erecting the fence, the end panels are fitted to the posts in like manner as they are fitted to each other, and the posts and panels simply rest upon the ground.
To secure the fence when in position, stakes, c, are driven into the ground at suitable points.
These stakes should be madestraight toward their butt ends, and a metal ring, f, be driven onto them,
ing away, the one upon the other or otherwise, these stay-rods may be swung to book their free ends into staples t 'i in the panels. I,
A portable and adjustable fence as herein described will be found very useful for inclosing hay-ricks, fruit-- trees, sheep-folds, and other objects or places; also as a temporary division fence, and wherever a removable and adjustable fence, either permanent or only I Letters Patent, is-
1. The locking, wedge-shaped cleats and socketstrips d ande or ll and c on the uprights of the panels and posts, essentially as shown and described.
2. The combination of the rails 11 11, pivoted-at their ends to the uprights a a of either panel, with the locking wedge-shaped cleats and socket-strips d and e e, arranged on the outsides of said uprights,
substantially as specified.
