re ent PATENT QFFIQEB JOHN H. CANNON, OF SHREVEPORT, LOUISIANA.
FENGEPOST.
Application filed September 14:, 1922.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN H. CANNON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Shreveport, in the parish of Caddo and State of Louisiana, have invented a new and useful Fencepost, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to fence posts, one of its objects being to provide a post pref erably formed of concrete so shaped as to have the maximum strength with the minimum amount of material, to afford means for fastening the fence wires securely again displacement relative to the post and to hold the wires properly spaced relative to each other.
'With the foregoing and other objects in View which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood, that, within the scope of what is claimed, changes in the precise embodiment of the invention shown can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawings:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of the post, showing a couple of wires attached thereto.
Figure 2 is a side elevation.
Figure 3 is a section on. line 33, Figure 2.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference 1 designates a post formed pref erably of concrete, said post being triangular in cross section and of the same configuration throughout its length. One ridge formed between two of the converging faces of the post is provided with a longitudinal series Serial No. 588,223.
of rounded depressions or notches 2 and extending transversely through the post and adjacent these notches are small openings 8.
After the post has been set up in the same manner as an ordinary post the fence wires V are seated within certain of the notches or recesses 52 so that they will be properly spaced relative to each other. Short binding wires B are inserted through certain of the openings 3 and are wrapped around the adjacent wires W and twisted so as to force the wires tightly into the adjacent recesses and hold them securely therein.
By providing a post which is triangular in cross section it has the same strength approximately as a spare post without, however, requiring the same amount of material. By notching the post the wires are held securely and will not become easily dislodged. Furthermore it will be noted that the notches in the post are close together so that their walls merge to form points. Thus live stock will not push or rub against the post.
What is claimed is A fence post triangular in cross section and having a longitudinal series of elongated recesses in one longitudinal edge, the walls of the recesses merging to form points between the recesses, there being transverse openings in the post adjacent the recessed edge, and separate tie wires extending through the transverse openings for gripping fence wires and holding them in certain of the recesses.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
JOHN H. CANNON. Witnesses:
MILTON BARNHORT,
O. O. JoNEs.
