R. R. DANIELS.
iOLE SETTING DEVICE. APPLICATION FILED SEPT- 24, I92].
Patented Mar. 21, 1922.
UNITED STATES ROY R. DANIELS, 0F INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA.
POLE-SETTING DEVICE.
Application filed September 24, 1921.
To all w hom it may concern Be it known that I, For Ii. DANIELS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented new and useful Improvements in Pole-Setting Devices, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide a simple and effective means for raising or taking down telegraph, electric wire, and telephone poles; straightening them when out of vertical position by the action of wind or other forces; pushing the polebutt over when not in the desired position,
as when moving the poles to a new location;
taking the place of a guy or brace temporarily while the poles are being set or changed; and for raising poles while temporary supports are being placed under them in case of a severe sleet or wind storm, high enough to clear the dragging wires from the ground, and afterwards for pushing the poles back into place.
I accomplish the above, and other objects which will hereinafter appear, by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which- Fig. 1, is .a view in front elevation of a line of poles with cross-arms, showing the near pole leaning to one side of a vertical plane, and my invention applied thereto in the position for pushing the top of the pole back to the vertical plane of its base.
Fi 2, shows my invention in operative position, on a larger scale than in Fig. 1, but detached from the pole.
Fig. 3, is a perspective view of the jack illustrated in Fig. 2 but showing the opposite side of the jack. Fig. 4: is a longitudinal section of the outer end of the extension pipe showing the manner of attaching the prongs to the extension for sticking into the poles. Fig. 5, is a section on the line 5-5 of Fig. 2 showing the pipe slide and the manner of its assembly with the pipe and jack standard. Fig. 6, is section on the line 66 of Fig. 2 showing the construction and assembly of the standard slide, and Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the foot-block against which my device has its bearing at its ground end.
Like characters of reference indicate like parts in the several views of the drawing.
My invention consists essentially in a ush-bar in two lapped parts, one end of the push-bar being firmly supported upon the Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 21, 1922. Serial No. 502,961.
ground with the other end against the lower side of a pole to be straightened, and means for moving the two parts of the push-bar relative to each other to vary the length of the bar. The embodiment here shown comprises a foot-block 8 formed from I-beam steel with serrations-8 on one of the flanges to enable it to enter the ground more freely. The webb of the I-beam has a hole 9 into which the lower end of the lower member of the push-bar is engaged, the hole being of such size and shape as to engage the end without allowing it to pass entirely through. This lower member of the push-bar is here shown as the standard 10 of a lifting jack, of any usual and suitable construction, the embodiment illustrated having a longitudinal series of holes 11 for the engagement with the standard of climbing-pins 12 and 13 carried by runners 14 and 15 respectively mounted on the standard. A lever 16 is pivoted to the runner 14: and has a pitman 17 which is pivotally connected with the runner 15 whereby the two runners may be moved relative to each other on the standard 11. The pins 12 and 13 are pressed into the holes 11 of the standard by springs 18 wrapped around them and are caused by a dog mechanism not shown to alternately engage the holes 11 by the operation of lever 16 to cause the runners to move longitudinally of standard 10. The runner 14 has a foot extension 20.
Bolted to an end of the standardlO is a casting having a lateral cylindrical eye which I will hereinafter designate as pipe slide 21. Through this slide 21 the extension pipe 22, forming the second member of'the push-bar, is inserted, and the lower end of pipe 22 is seated upon the foot 20. Surrounding the extension pipe 22, at the upper end of the runner 1 1, is a casting which is bolted or riveted to the pipe, and which has a lateral extension with an opening to receive the standard 10 with a sliding fit, which casting will be hereafter designated as standard slide 23. Its purpose is to keep the end of extension pipe 22 on the foot 20. The end of the extension pipe 22 opposite the foot 20 is suitably barbed to cause the end which comes in contact with the wooden pole, to enter the latter suiiiciently to secure a hold on the latter that will not slip under pressure. This comprises a metal point 25, here shown as formed with three spears or barbs, and
partures are'fpossible in other respects 7 a bearing plate,
having a dowel-shaped end which is inserted in the end of the pipe where it is riveted.
In'the operation of my invention, the footblock 8 is suitably placed upon'the ground at the side of a pole to be operated on and the standard 10 of the jack, in which the extension pipe has been assembled has its lower end seated inthe hole of block 8 and the barbs at the other end of the extension pipe in contact with the pole. Then the standard and pipe are moved longitudinally in opposite directions by the manipulation moved to thedesired new position.
lVhile I have here shown a particular form of jack for multiplying the power in extending the length of the push-bar, any othersuitable jack with a foot and standard of similar construction may be used, and derom the particular embodiment here shown. I
therefore do not desire to be limitedto the precise embodiment here shown and described, or any more than is required by the appended claims. a
I claim;
1. In a devicefor the purposes specified, a jack standard having a pipe slide secured to it near one end and having the other end bearing on said plate a runner slidable on the standard and having a foot extension, power multiplying means for manually sliding the runner on the standard, a pipe passing through the pipe slide and having one end bearing upon the foot extension of the runner and having prongs at its other end to engage a post to be moved, and a standard slide secured to the pipe and slidingly receiving the standard.
2. Ina device for the purposes specified, an I-beam bearing plate having a: flange'with serrations for freer engagement and having a web with formations to engage a standard, a
a standard having one end engaging said pipe slide secured to its other end, on the standard, said runnerhaving a foot extension, power multiplying means. for manually moving the runner on the standard, a pipe passing through the pipeslide and having one end bearing [against the foot extension of the runner and having prongs at the other end, anda standard slidesecured to the pipe and slidingly receiving-the standard.
Signed at Indianapolis, Indiana, this the 16 day of September, 1921. 1
ROYR. DANIELS.
