`i'ippncaami aieanovinber e?, 19H25'. -iseriai No. 7175i This invention relates to certain improve?.`
ments in felice .postsand `has relation more particularly to a device of this kind espe`- cially designed and adapted for use in connection with wire fabric or the like, and it"- is an `object of the invention to provide a post provided with means whereby slack oc? curring in the fence fabric or the like may be taken up with convenience and facility.
Another object of the invention is to provide a post of this kind with means whereby the fence fabric or the like may be readily stretched thereto or disconnected therefrom whereby the fabric or the like may be readily taken down or replaced in the event pas- Sage is desired for threshing machines and' other1 farm machinery too wide for the ordi` nary gate. i
rl`he invention consists in the details of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts of my improved fence post whereby certain important advantages are attained and the device rendered simpler, less expensive and other wise more convenient and advantageous for usej as will be hereinafter more fully set forth. Y
rlhe novel features of my invention will hereinafter be definitely claimed. Y
In order that my invention may Vbe the better understood, l will now proceed to de" scribe the same with reference to` the ac.-`
the means herein disclosed for holding a bar against rotation.
is disclosed in the accompanying draw-a ings, P denotes the post proper which may be at a corner or in the middle of a fence section, the lower end portion of the post l) being herein disclosed as set in aconcrete foundation l.
The post P adjacent to its upper end and to the foundation l is provided with out`` standing and. oppositelyl disposed arms 2 which may be integrally formed with the post P or may comprise separate casting disposed through the `post as illustrated in the flexible members.
View in elevation illustrat-` accompanying drawings. The pair` of arms 2 at each side` of the post P provide verti-` cally spaced bearings or `mountings for a bar 3. The lower extremity of the bar 3 is received within a pocket or recess a provided in the upper surface of the lower arm 2 while the upper portion of said bar 3 is freely disposed through the upper arm 2 and terminates thereabove. The portion of the applied bar 3 above the upper arm 2 has disposed therethrough the angularly related ppenings 5 to provide means whereby a turning rod or kindred implement may `be en-- gagedwith thebar when it is desired to rotate the same, l `The lower portion of the bar or thatportion received within the pocket or recess lg'is provided therearound with circumferentially spaced openings 6 adapted to register 'with an opening 7 in the lowerv arin 2 in communication with the pocket or be received within the opening 7 and a reglistering opening 6 to hold or lock the bar against rotation in either direction.
As herein disclosed, the post P has coactiug therewith the braces 9.
In practice, a clamp C of any desired type is operatively engaged with the wire fabric F and said clamp is operatively en gaged with a bar 3 by the chains 10 or other y Upon rotation of the bar 3 said flexible members l0 will wind therearound. resulting in sufficient pull being imposed upon the fabric F through the medium of the clamp C to take up substantially all of the slack in the fabric. The fabric is then attached directly to the bar 3 by the clamp C and upon continued rotation of the bar 3 the fabric is properly tightened, after which ythe bar .3 is held against retrograde rotation under the `tension of the fabric by proper application of the pin 8.
During this operation of tightening the fabric Fit will also be understood that the barbed wire W generally employed in connection` therewith -will also be properly tightened. i i
From the foregoing description it is tion ofthe severa'fprts herein shown in' carrying cept as hereinafter cimmed.
I claim y In combination with 'a out my invention' in practice exthe post to one side thereof and upon which the fabric isvradapted to Abe Wound?. said `bar being ,providedA Wlth .ineens to 'rotate the 'encevpost and Wire fabric, a bar rotatably supported by tation, a clamp engageable with the fabric" at a point spaced from the bar, a fiexible cone nection between said clamp and the bar., said flexible connection Winding upon 'the bar to impose'pnli on 'the fabric' upon rotation of the bar in one direction, andra second clamp coacting With the bar for holding to the bar the fabric Wound thereon.
