STEEL NEWEL POST.
Application filed Itovember 80, 1921. Serial. Etc. 518,760.
To all whom it may camera:
Be it known that I, CONRAD E. ANDERSON, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Steel Newel Posts, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to steel newel postsand a method of formingthe same.
It is the object of the invention to provide a newel post that will eliminate the large expense involved in producing such an article by casting and which will further avoid the rou hness of appearance that is diflicult to avoid in casting an article of such a nature.
A further object is to produce a steel newel post by a method involving a considerable saving of time as compared with present practice.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a view in elevation of the improvement post;
Figure 2 is a cross section on line 2-2 through the body of the post;
Figure 3 is a cross section on line 3-3 of Figure 1 through the base of the post;
l i re d is a view illustrating the method of forming the body of the post from standard angle bars;
hi re 5 is a view of the post showing an initia provision of slots to facilitate weld- 111W i1 1 these views the reference character A designates a pair of standard angle bars which are combined to form the body of the post. Preliminaryto connecting said bars by welding, they are arranged in the comp ementary relation shown in Figure d with their reduced edge portions B spaced a slight distance apart, so as to permit cylindrical filler rods G and C to be clamped be tween said ortions. The two angle bars are then wel ed together by fusing portions of said filler rods at suitable sace intervals. .Iihus the section line for igure 2 is so taken as to show a welded portion of the red C and an unwelded portion of the rod C. F is the base member or the post formed of a pair of an is bars F and F? by a method somewhat similar to that above described, said bars being however Suficiently larger than the bars A to permit the body formed by the latter to snugly telescope into said base. It is preferred to bevel the edges of one of said bars, and abut said edges against the edge portions of the other bar, thus forming pockets to be filled with metal in the process of Welding. Before establishing the telescoping rela tion, the upper end portion of the base is slotted as indicated at G to facilitate welding the body A thereto, the slots G being filled in the welding operation with molten material. To give the body of the ne-wel post a aneled appearance, each corner of the said body is embraced by a relatively small angle bar H rigidly secured in place by Welding. Preferably this welding operation is facilitated by a preliminary slotting of the bars H as indicated at I, said slots being filled with molten metal in welding. The panel efi'ect is completed by securing a pair of small cross strips J to each side face of the body, adjacent the top and baseof the post. The strips J are secured both to the body of the post and to the angle bars H in one welding operation.
The described post, produced by the disclosed method, is very much less expensive than the cast post now commonly used and the various operations of assembly may be I accomplished in a much shorter period of time than is required to produce a cast post, Furthermore, the construction is one that lends itself to production in any desired size the expense involved in the production of different sizes being very slight as com= pared with casting. lit is further to be noted that the built up steel post is much lighter for a given strength than a similar post produced by casting.
What I claim as my invention is:
1. A hollow steel post comprising a pair of opposed angle bars having abutting flanges a rigid connection therebetween and relatively small apertured angle bars embracing said abutting flanges and haying a welded. connection therewith through said apertures. a
2. A hollow steel post comprising a pair of opposed standard angle bars having a welded connection between their flanges.
3, A. hollow steel post comprising a hollow rectangular body composed of opposed rigidly connected angle bars and relatively small angle bars respectively embracingl the corners of the body and having'a w ded connection with the body.
l. A post comprising a body and a baseres ectively composed of angle bars having their flanges abutted and a welded connection therebetween, said body being telescopically engaged Within said base and rigidl secured thereto.
5. post comprising a hollow rectangular stee body and 'a hollow rectangular steel base provided with apertures therein, the former telescoping within the latter and having a welded connection through said apertures therewith.
6. The method of forming a hollow steel post, comprising welding together the flanges of two standard angle bars arranged in an opposed relation.
7. The methodof forming a hollow steel post from standard an' le bars, comprising shearing off the rounde edges of two standard angle b'ars, arranging said angle bars in opposed relation with their flanges abutting and rigidly connecting said flanges by welding. i
8. The method of paneling a rectangular metal post comprising embracin the corners of said post by apertured ang e bars of a size to produce the desired panel and securing said angle bars to the post by welding through said apertures.
In testimon whereof I aflix my signature.
ONRAD E. ANDERSON.
