WILLIAM L. nu'rcnnn, on nnmennns'r, (INDIANA.
FENCE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM L. BUTCHER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bringhurst, in the county of Carrol and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fences, of which thefollowing is a specification.
This invention relates to the construction of fences, and has particular reference to guards or protectors through which instrumentality a close approach to the fence is prevented.
It is the object of the, invention to provide an improvement in such structure as are shown and described in, my co-pending application, Serial No. 191,558, filed Sept. 15-4917 in which is shown a protector wire carried by the extremities of laterally projected arms, as thatit stands at such a distance away from the fence-wires or other parts that persons and animals, particularly the latter are kept back from the fence and prevented from jumping the latter. In the application mentioned, I have shown a laterally extended arm which ,may be swun from one side of the fence to'the other, an in the improved structure of this case, I have made provision for the use of arms projecting in both directions, together with means for swinging one arm from one side to the other, where only one such arm is supplied.
With the above and other objects in view, and such others relating to the details of construction as may hereinafter appear, my invention will now be fully set forth and described reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which like reference characters indicate" like parts throughout and Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the use of the invention.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary detail elevation looking toward the support at right angles to the fence.
Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
Fig. l is a fragmentary elevation of a modified form of the invention, and
Fig. 5 is a detail perspective view.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, 1 represents a fence post which is one of a line to which the strand wires 2 are secured. Fixed to the side of the post 1 at a proper height, is a troughed or channeled supporting bar 3 which may be rolled from Specification of Letters Patent. 'Pate'nted Aug. 2'7, 1918. Application filed January 17, 1918.
Serial No.'212,272.
a blank of sheet material. A bolt 4 passed through small eyes 5 in the walls of the supporting bar 8 midway of the length of the latter fastens the bar in place transversely of the fence, and a pair of brace irons 6 com plete the rigid positioning of the device. Continued in opposite directions from the eyes 5 are the slots 7, which in turn, terminate in eyes 8 at comparatively short distances from the central eyes 5.. The eyes 8 provide sockets for bolts 9, which secure the inner ends of the arms 10 within thechanneled bar 3, a portion of the lengths of the bars being supported on the bottom. of the channeled member and bolts 11 passed through the walls of the member 3 and the bars, locking the latter in place. When the bars are thus mounted, they extend laterally beyond the opposite sides of the fence to such distances as may be found necessary or expedient to properly carry the guard wires 12. The arms 10 are notched at their ends so that tapered recesses 13 are provided into which the wires 12 are thrust and therein tied by means of tie elements 14. v I
The inner bolts 9 are provided with-the flattened bodies 15, the threaded shanks 16 and the headsl7, the bodies 15 cooperating with the eyes 8 and slots 7 in the adjustment of the device to adapt it to the needs of the fence upon which it is installed. Now, each bolt 9 is fitted into its respective arm 10, so that when the arm is swung upwardly from the bar 3, the bolt will turn therewith.
when the arm 10 lies within the trough of the bar 3, the wide dimension of the body 15 stands vertically, so that it occupies the corresponding edge 8, and may not be slid longitudinally in the adjacent slot 7. But, when the arm 10 is turned vertically, the body of the bolt will lie flat and the arm may he slid along the slot 7 toward the middle or to the opposite eyes 8. This construction and arrangement permits the single arm to be swung to either side of the fence with a minimum of labor, where only one arm is employed and it is necessary to make such a change. Thus it is only necessary to remove the bolts 11 and 4., swing the arm 10 upwardly into the vertical position, slide it across the bar 3 and then replace it in its reverse horizontal position.
In the form shown in Fig. 4, the slots 7 are dispensed with, and in making the interchange in this case, the arms 10' are completely removed from the bar 3 and the bolts 9 are merely ordinary cylindrically bodied elements. When it is desired to swing the arms 10 out of their horizontal positions, so that the guard strands are not ei'i ective, said arms are swung uponthe bolts 9 or until they stand vertically when the longitudinal slots 19 in the inner ends oi the arms 10 through Which the bolts 9 pro ject permit said inner ends to be dropped through slots 18 which are cut into the bot toms of the trough 3, whereby the arms 10 are securely locked in the vertical position. Attention is also called to the fact that it it is desired a third guard strand may be projected above the fence by placing a third arin'vertieally on the bolt which Would then have a flatbody and when positioned in the slots 7, would hold the arm 10 vertically to carry the upper strand rigid relation. r
/Vhile l have described one preferred embodiment of the invention, it Will of course, lie Within the scope or" the invention to make numerous changes in the details of construction Without departing from the spirit of the invention or the elements of the claims which follow.
lVhat I claim as my inventicui 1. A fence guard consisting of a bar to be secured to a fence-post a plurality of intercommunicating eyes in said bar an arm -mounted on the ban a connecting means Which permits movement of the arms from one eye to another when the arm is rertical topics of th s natent be obtained for five cents each, by addressing Washington, v
and loclrs the latter against longitudinal movement when it lies longitudinally, and means to secure a guard Wire to the arms.
2'. A fence guard consisting of bar to be secured to a fence-post, a pluratity of intercominunicatin eyes in said bar, an arm mounted on the bar, a connecting means which permits movement of the arms from one eye to another when the arm is vertical and locks the latter against longitudinal movement when it lies longitudinally and means to secure a guard Wire to the arms, and a nieansto hold the arms in vertical position.
3. A fence guard consisting of -a channeled bar to be secured to a fence-post, the Walls thereof having elongated slots therein which terminate in enlarged eyes, an arm to occupy the channeled bar and project therebeyond in either longitudinal direction and a flattened bolt securing the arm to the bar, said bolt locking the arms against movement longitudinally of the bar when the former is laid in the channel of the latter, so that the bolt occupies the eyes at one end, and being movable through the slot when the arm is Yerticah whereby the latter may be carried to and projected beyond the opposite extremity of the bar.
