' BARRIQADE. Y
Application filed February My invention particularly relates to barricades used in road construction; also in road p operations by public utility-companies such as Compauieatelephone companies, electric light companies, etc. The objects oflthe 1nyention are to provide a device of thisv character which is economically manufactured, the parts of which are easily transported 1n quantities, is solid and Strong so as to withstand any reasonable wind pressure, and canbe quickly and conveniently assembled or dismantled or moved vintact by one` man. Other advantages will appear from the `following description, upon reference'to the accompanying drawing. y y i The annexed drawing and the following description set forthin detail certain means exemplitying my invention, such disclosed means, however, showing but one of the forms in which the principle of the inventionmay be embodied.
ln said annexed drawing: Figure l represents a sideelevation'of my complete barricade; and
Figure 2 is an end view of the barricade'. Referring to the annexed drawing, a stringer 1 for a barricade is adapted to be supported at its ends by a pair of supports which are formed-trom metal stoel; intothe structure shown plainly in Figure 2. Preferably this stock is steel. The Stringer l can be a stand ard article used in operations of the character noted, with the usual side cleats eliminated. The barricade supports each comprise a pair of upwardly converging leg portions 2 which are formed into upper spaced substantially parallel verticalvsections 3 connected at their tops by an integral horizontal section 4 whereby three sides of an eye section 5 forming an enclosure for the end .ot the Stringer l is arovided. The supporting or base side of the eye enclosure 5 is provided by an integral or separate strap portion 'secured to the inside walls ot the legs 2 substantially at the junction point of the latter with the spaced vertical sections 3, as plainly shown in Figure 2, the particular strap portion 6 herein shown being` separate members riveted to the legs 2.
The eye portion 5 is somewhat larger in cross-section than the cross-Section of the stringer l so that the lattercan readily be inserted into the eye 5 for assembling the barricade shown in Figure 1. The top and bottom walls of the eye enclosures 5 lie in planes substantially at right angles to the longitudinal axes of the supports, so that in assem- `1,1928. seriai No; 251,088. 7"- y bling, lit'l the Stringer isinserted in the eye enclosure 5 substantially atright angles to the longitudinal axis of the support, the assembly iS quickly and easily effected. Then when.
theend support' is lowered to the ground, vthe legs 2 can be pulledoutwardly into the proper supporting position Shown in Figure 1, whereby one edge 7 of theupper surface of the strap 6 will bind upon the bottomsurface of the Stringer 1, and the opposite edge 8 of 'the lower surface of the Support Section 4 will bind upon the top surface of the Stringer, to hold the latter by friction within the eye portion 5 and prevent its being moved therein or pushed out of the eye by any. light pressure.
lhe bar-ricade end supports are ymade Sufiiciently heavy to provide a structure which `will not blow over under any ordinary wind pressure. Neither will the barricade wobble vbecause of the rugged heavy construction and the manner of assembling the Stringer and end supports. The'metal end supports may be bent by accident but will not break and are of a construction Such that a few hammer blows will Straighten'them if thev are bent. The initial cost of construction is practically the entire cost of the barricade, since there is no repairwork necessitated. The Stringers are adjustable at any point along the end supports, the cost of the usual Stringer cleats used with wood supports in constructions of this nature being eliminated, as well aseliminating thelimitations as to the adjustability ofthe Stringer upon the supports. Thebarricade can be easily hanldled by one man both as respectsk assembling and dismantling and also the Same up and manuallymoving it intact from one position to another. Furthermore, if it is'desired to use the Stringer 1 with one end support, resting one end of thek Stringer upon the ground, the construction afords means ofa character which `provide an eil'ective barricade of this nature and one which is not readily displaced Lor in which the end support is not readilyl damaged. A coinparatively small space iS required for storage of thebarricade parts and the latter nest together compactly for economical transportation.
What I claim iS:
. 1. A barricade Support comprising a metal body member formed into two upwardly converging legs whoSe upper ends are vertically extended .into Substantially parallel sections connected at the topby an integral as regards taking horizontal section, and a strap :securing together the upper ends o the con-verging Vpor.n tions to form an enclosure yand support for a barricacle enel between said parallel sec: tions said horizontal Section and said strap.
2. A barricacle Comprising a horizontal Stringer, and two end supports inclined to- .Ward each other and each orinel with supporting legs Whose upper ends are connected at 'thetop by an integral Section and a strap below aeui'ed to .the legs so as to form an eye adapted Stringer enel,
eyes in said end supportslying in planes substantially at right Iangles to the longitudinal 'axes of the supports so that in the inclined position of the supports the barricade is helcl 4inthe eye enclosures by frietional engagenient.
