IMPROVEMENT IN PORTABLE FENCES.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ABRAM JEWETT, of Sanfords Corners, in the` county of Jefferson and State of New York, have invented certain Improvements in Portable Rail Fences, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawing.
My invention relates to an improved portable rail fence 5 and consists in a novel manner of constructing upright frames or posts for supporting the rails, as hereinafter described.
Figure l is a side elevation of one of my uprights or supports, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a section of fence constructed on my plan.
In constructing my support A I first provide two bars, a, of equal length7 and cross them near their upper ends and unite them by a pin or bolt, I1, passed through them, and a band, c, of wire or metal around them, as shown. I then nail or otherwise secure the ends of the two bars a to a beam or bar, d, intended to rest upon the ground and support them 5 and across the upper ends of the two bars I secure an iron band or bar, e, having a hole through its middle. I next secure to the two bars, just below the point of union, a cross-bar, j', and to this bar and the base-bar d I secure two vertical bars, g, leaving a space between them equal to the thickness of the rails to be used. In constructing a fence on my plan the frames are placed on the ground parallel with each other and at a distance apart equal to the length of the rails B, and then the ends of the rails inserted between the bars g and between the upper ends of the two bars a, in the manner shown in Fig. 2. By reference to said figure it will be seen that the end of a rail on the left hand is irst inserted and rested upon the bottom bar d, and that then a rail from the right is inserted and allowed to rest upon the end of the first one, and so on alternately until the fence is built to the top of bars g. Two rails, one from each side, are then laid between the upper ends of bars a, and a pin, h, driven down through the hole in the metal band e and through the rails, as shown in Fig. 2, so as to hold the whole together. One of these frames or uprights is placed in this manner at the end of each length or section of rails to connect them with the next, and in this manner a continuous fence is built up. Additional security may be given to the fence by driving stakes over or across the bottom bar cl to hold the frame in place.
The frames constructed as described can be made very cheap; they support the rails in such manner as to produce a strong and neat fence, and they enable the fence to be very rapidly set up-and taken down.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is- A portable fence-post, consisting of the base bar d, the crossed bars a, bar f, the band c, and vertical bars g, when constructed and arranged substantially as herein described.
ABRAM JEWETT.
