FARM GATE.
Application tiled October 8, 1923.
To all 11n/0772. may concern.'
Be it known that l, Erin-Mann Piiniiinson, a subject et the ling of Great Britain, and resident oit the town ot Yorkton, in the Province o1 Saskatchewan, Canada, have invented certain, new and u` ful Improvement-s. in Farin Gates, ot Which-the followis thespeciiication. i
rEhe invention relates to improvements in tarin gatesv and an object ot the inventionA is to provide a simply constructed, light and strong gate which can be readily assembled and which is rigidly reinforced against twisting or ivarping.
A further object is to arrange the gate such that it can be Veasily tightened up from time to time as occasion .requires and without necessitating the use of special tools. i
With the above more important objects in View the invention consists essentially in the arrangement and construction oi parts hereinafter more particularly described and later pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a side view ot the gate in closed position.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged detailed plan view ot the gate.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view at 3 3 Fig. l.
Fig. 4E is a sectional view at ---l Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is a tace view ot the latch.
ln the drawing like characters ot retorence indicate corresponding `parts in the several tigures.
The gate, indicated generally by the retence numeral 1, is adapted to operate between the posts 2 and 3 being pivotally suspended from the post 2.
rthe gate is formed from the parts now described.
End uprights Lland 5 are provided, these uprights being ot equal length and being` provided with equi-spaced horizontal bolt openings 7 which receive similar adjusting bolts 8, the bolts having the heads at the outer sides ot the uprights and their inner ends screw threaded and receiving adjusting nuts 9.
Towards the upper and lower ends the uprights are provided With openings which receive fastening bolts 10, these bolts being utilized to secure angularly disposed pairs ot intersection bars 11 and 12 to the uprights, there being a pair ot brace bars at Serial No. 567,365.
each side ot the uprights. rlhe pairs of brace bars are held in an outwardly bowed position by a block 13 inserted between the pairs at 'their points et intersection and a fastening bolt l-t passes through the brace bars and the block, holding these parts {irmly together( According to this arrangement the brace bars torni a truss between the uprights.
0n each ot the bolts 8 l mount, betiif'een the nuts thereon and the upright, an anchoring strap 15, the strap being bent over the nut and having the tivo ends then brought together and provided With aligned openings 16. The opposing straps of the uprights` are connected by Wires 17, the wires having their ends passed through the openings 1G and thereafter tied.
lhe bolts associated ivith the upright -1 are utilized to tasten pivot members 18 and 19 to the uprights, the pivot members being really in the torni of metal strips bent to span the upright and the brace bars and shaped to provide a socket 20, the sockets being vertically aligned and located centrally at the outer side of the upright.
The gate is suspended trom the post 2 by pintles or hangers 2l and 22 which have their upstanding ends adapted to pass into the sockets. The swinging side of the gate is provided Awith an extending locking pin Alfter the gate parts have been assembled one tightens up the nuts 9, this bringing the ivires into tension, which makes the whole structure very rigid.
The nuts can be tightened by turning the straps which are bent around the nuts so as to grip them and cause the same to rotate upon the straps being turned. Ot course this adjustment could also be effected by turning the heads oit the bolts S.
Vhilst I have shown single wires connecting the straps this part of the gate structure could be woven wire fencing it' desired and without departing from the spirit of the invention.
It ivill be obvious iroin the above description that the gate is particularly light and strong and Will not Warp or twist and that it can be readily tightened up :trom time 'to time as occasion demands.
The gate is held closed by a plate 2li fastened to the post 3 and provided with an upturned notched flange 25, the notch being adapted to receive the locking pin of the gate. A pivotcd latch 2G is attached to the plate, the latch being,` held normally in the position best shown in Fig. 5, by the action of a spring' 27. The lower end of the lat-ch opposes the notch and is spaced therefrom, the arrangement being such tha as the gate swings shut the latch is struck by the pin and moved with it suiliciently far to allow the pin to enter the notch, after which time the latch returns to its normal position above the notch, thereby locking' the pin in the notch.
To open the gate one simply shifts the latch sideways and raises the pin from the notch.
that claim as my invention is:
1. A gate comprising` a pair of spaced end uprights, a pair of crossed stay bars located at each side of the uprights and having,- the ends thereof connected to the upper and lower ends of the upright-s by fastening' bolts, means connecting the pairs of stay bars at their points of intersection, said means maintaining,` the stay hars outwardly bowed, spaced adjusting bolts passing through the uprights and provided with adjusting nuts, straps mounted on the latter bolts between the nuts and the upriglits and having;` their ends bent around the nuts and brought together at the inner ends of the latter bolts and tension wires connecting the opposing;` straps of the opposing uprights.
2. A gate comprising a pair of spaced end uprights, a pair of crossed stay bars located at each side of the uprights and having the ends thereof connected to the upper and lower ends of the uprights by fastening bolts, means connecting the pairs of stay bars at their points of intersection, said means maintaining` the stay bars outwardly bowed, spaced tension wires extending between the uprights, adjustable means anchoring the ends of the wires to the ujf rights, and pivot supports attached to one of the uprights by the bolts fastening the stay bars.
Signed at Yorkton, Canada, `this 26th day of September, 1923.
