Application fied necemter 19, 1922. serial No; 607,788.
To all whom it may concer/n.'
Beit known that I, STANLisoUs KosinN- sKl, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Vernon, in the county of Oneida and State of New York, have invent; ed certain new and useful Improvements in Staples, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to improvements in staples.
A primary object of the invention is to provide an inexpensive, simple in construction and eiiioient staple.
A further object of theinvention is to provide a. staple adapted for the purpose of securelyattaching wire to a fence post or the like.
Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of a sta-V ple and post with the staple' 'partly drivenk into the post, i f
Figure 2 is a view partly in section and partly in side elevation of the staple in its operative position,
Figure 3 is a plan view of a section of:k fencing showing a portion of the wire attached thereto, and
Figure 4 shows side elevationalviews of the staple.
The staple consists of a shank or body portion 10 having depending prongs 11. eX- tending therefrom. These prongs 11 have wedge-shaped outer ends orpoints 12 which are adapted to be easily driven into wood without splitting it. The inner edge of the shank or body portion 11 is provided with slots or grooves 13 which form the ridges or teeth 14 therebetween. These ridges or teeth securely hold the wire when the staple is driven into the wood. Formed on opposite sides of the shank or body portion 10 are two laterally extending shoulders or llanges 15. These flanges diverge downwardly from the head 2&2 ofthe shank or Vbody portion 1() and have at their lower outer edges depending teeth or projections 16 longitudinallyy disposed in relation to said flanges 15, and are adapted for biting into ythe wire as shown in Fig. 2. Y
Referring more in detail to the manner of operation thestaple .is placed over the wire 17 and driveniiito the post 18, as shown in F ig. 1, until the ridges or teeth la engage the wire. Further driving' of the. staple will force the wire into the post, as shown at 19 in Fig. 2, while the teeth or projection 1G will bite'into'tlie wire for further aidingV in securely holding the saine. thatthe wire thus driven' into the post is safe from being pulled `or loosened from its l fastening. A stillrfurther object of the invention is l, to provide a staple constructed for the com It is desirable that the wire be tightly stretched when secured to the posts, but it is oftentimes too rigid to bestretched manually. The staple as `herein described will aid in stretching the wire when driven into the post. In F ig. 3 there is illustrated a section of a fence embodying the invention wherein the portion of the wire designated by the numeralv 20 has been drawn taut having been stretched'upon two posts 18 .by the employment of the present staple, while portion 21 is loose preparatory to being secured by the stapleto the following post.
While it is herein described a preferred enibodinient of the invention, it is nevertheless understood that ininor changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed as new is 1. In a staple of the class described, a shank, a plurality of prongs extending from the inner end of said shank, shoulders ei;- tending laterallyV from said shank, and depending projections carried by said shoulders. Y f
2. In a staple of the classfdescribed, a shank, prongs extending from the inner end of Vsaid shank and terminating in wedge shaped points, n depending projections vformed in the inner edge of the shank in the space between said prongs, shoulders laterally extending from the outer end of It will be seen
