APPARATUS FOR rnnsnnvme Ann PROTECTING POLES AND THE LIKE.
To all whom it may concern I Be it known that I, THOMAS E. Lnwls, a citizen of the United States of Amerlca, re-
siding at Fort Worth, in the county of Tarrant and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Apparatus for Preserving and Protecting Poles and the like, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to protectors for preserving wood posts and moreparticularly such devices as electric light, telephone and telegraph poles; and theyobject is to provide devices, which are simple 1n construction which can be readily applied to any post or pole, and which Wlll preserve the pole against the ravages of weather conditions by keeping out moisture and other.
elements of the earth. Another advantage of the improved devices is that they will brace the posts or poles; Other objects and advantageswill be fully explained in the following.clescription.and the invention will be more particularly pointed out in the claims. 1 I f Reference is had to the accompanying drawings which form a part of this application. 1
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the clevices applied to a pole which is broken away, the long dotted line indicating the ground line. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, with the protecting hood omitted. Fig. 3 1s a plan view of the protecting hood. Fig. 4
is a horizontal section, taken substantially on the line 41 of Fig.1. Fig. 5 is an inverted view of the rotor or rotating sleeve. Fig. 6 is a plan view of the devices with the hood removed. Fig. 7 is an elevation of the rotating devices, partly in section. Fig. 8 is a plan view of the yoke which supports.
the devices while they are being adjusted.
Similar characters of reference are used to indicate the same parts throughout the several views. 7 i
In the drawings, a .pole or post 1 is shown broken away and a band 2 of sheet metal is wrapped on a portion of the pole above and below the level of the surface of the earth. The means for wrapping the sheet metal 2 on the pole include a slotted tube 6 having a vertical slot 5. The edges 1 of the sheet metal are rolled, asshown in Fig. 4 and the two edges are caught in the slot 5 in the tube 6. The means for rotating the tube 6 in- Specification of Le s-s Patent. P t t e g 2a Application filed June 24, 1919. Serial 110,306,383. j g y cludea yoke 3 which issecured to thepole by nails or screws or other devices.
rotor has an inwardly projecting rib 9 which projects into the slot/5 of the tube 6, the object being to turn the tube 6 for wrapping the sheet metal closely about the post or pole. Any suitable crank, or other in-: strument may be inserted in the opening 10 for turning the rotor 7 and the rotor will turn the tube or sleeve Gland the tube will draw the sheet metal by reason of the rolled edges 1 which willnot slip out of the slot- 5. The sheetmetal 2 will, be drawn closely about, the pole, as shown in Figs. 4ca/11d.5 except at one. part andthe object is to leave a pocket 11. for vreceiving any preservinga. flange l-which projects up under the flange 13 to keep out moisture. A portion of the jacket 2 which extends below the surface of the ground is covered with a sheetof paper. or fabric 15 which is soaked or filled with a preserving composltlon, as pine tar, to protect the metal from attacks of ele-- ments of the earth, such as alkali. This sheet 15 may be wrapped about thejacket with the tube or sleeve'2. When the :sheet "metal 2 has been wrapped "sufficiently taut about the pole, it, may be locked stationary thereon. The exterior of the rotoris fluted A hood 12 is mounted on the pro-.
A rotor 7 operates in the eye 8 of the yoke and the as shown and the eye8 of the yoke 3 has two key seats'16 and a key 17 may be inserted in one. ofthe' seats to-lock the rotor 7 against movement. "Anyone of the flute creases or corrugations of the rotor 7 that is adjacent to one of theseats 16 will receive the key f 17 so that the rotor will be securely locked against rotation. -Any suitable fluid or compound may be placed in the pocket 11 and packed therein for preserving the pole. Such preserving fluid or material will be taken into the pores or cells of the pole and thus keep out moisture. The pocket 11 may be repeatedly filled as the pole takes the material in the pocket. The lower end of the pocket 11 may be suitably closed to retain the preserving material to be taken up by the pole.
Such poles as electric light, telephone, telegraph, and the like often decay about the lower part just above and below the surface of the ground and the decayed portions are sloughed off, making somewhat peripheral grooves. The housing herein provided and the pocket 11 will retain preserving fluid which will fill such grooves and be taken up into the pores and cells of the wood and which will stop the decay of the poles.
The yoke 8 serves as a guide when the sheet metal is being wrapped about the pole and of course prevents any slipping of the metal because the pipe 6 which operates the metal is turning in the eye 8, the rib 9 locking the pipe 6 and the rotor 7 in operative relation.
arious changes in the sizes, proportions, construction, and arrangement can be made without departing from my invention. The bent portions t of the edges of the sheet metal may be of any suitable shape, the object being to-prevent the edges from slipping out of the slot while the sheet metal is being wrapped on the pole. The rotor and the sleeve 6 may be used for tightening various devices, such as hooks on tanks;
What I claim, is,
1. A preserving apparatus for poles and the like comprising a piece of sheet metal, and means for wrapping the same on the pole including a rotor, said sheet metal. and rotor forming a pocket to receive preserving material against the pole.
2. A preserving apparatus for poles and the like comprising a piece of sheet metal, means for wrappingthe same on a portion of the pole including a rotor, said sheet metal and rotor forming a pocket to receive preserving material against the pole, and means for locking the wrapping means in place on the pole.
8. Apparatus for preserving and protecting poles and the like comprising a piece of sheet metal having rolled edges, tube having a slot to receive the rolled edges of said sheet metal, a yoke attached to the pole, and a rotor operatively connected to said tube and cooperating with said yoke for turning said tube.
