Application filed September 24, 1928.
My invention relates to apole or post intended primarily to be used for supporting tele hone and telegraph lines, but capable of eing employed for various other purposes; and it is an object of the invention to provide a sectional metal pole made up of any desired numberof sections, which may be readily built up or taken apart, and of simple and inexpensive construction; all as will be hereinafter more particularly described and claimed.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, which are made a part hereof and on which similar reference characters indicate similar parts, I
Figure 1 is a side elevation partly in section, of a pole illustrating one application of my invention,
Figure 2, a similar View, showing a modified form of pole,
Figure 3, a section on the line 33 of Fig. 1, I
Figure 4, a fragmentary detail side eleva tion, partly in section, illustrating a further modified form, and i Figure 5, a view illustrating a number of modified forms of pole sections.
In the drawings, reference character 10 indicates a corner leg or portion of a metal pole, four of said corner portions being combined to form a longitudinal section of the pole, any desired number of which may be used. The pole sections may be secured together by bolts or other fastening means 11. Each section of the pole is formed of four corner portions 10 slightly tapering from end to end and having two sides disposed at right angles and provided at their edges with interlocking lugs or fastening elements 12 which are adapted to be engaged by similar complementarily formed lugs or fastening elements on the adjacent corner member of the pole.
The pole sections are fastened together by the fastening bolts 11 at each corner within the angle formed by the two sides, and in order to provide sulficient foundation or support for the fastening bolts the extremities of the sections are provided with transverse web plates or inturned flanges 13, the inner edge surfaces of which are curved to form, when combined with the other sections, a circular opening. Likewise, the corner members are provided with opposed elongated rota.
cut-out portions or complementarily formed openings which when the parts are in posi- Serial No. 307,981.
tion form oval shaped openings which give 7 the appearance of a light-weight skeleton frame, such frame however possesses sufficient stren'gthto withstand the stress to which the pole is adapted to be subjected.
In Fig. 2 I have shown a pole formed of a. plurality of sect-ions, each section instead of being formed of four castings as shown in Fig. 1, comprises a single casting lthaving an elongated opening 15 at. each side, said castings being secured together in groups of t-hree'by bolts 16 located at diagonally opposite corners, the bolts of one group being.
staggered relative to the-bolts of the next ad1acentgroup. Also the endsof each section are provided with inturned' flanges 17 similar to the flanges 13 previously described.
If desired, the pole sections shown in Fig. 1 may be fastened together in the same manner as in Fig. 2, by long bolts 16. A pole like that shown in Fig. 2 is of course much simpler and less expensive to manufacture and is also lighter in construction.
In Fig. 4 I have shown a joint between pole sections of the same general character as those shown in Fig. 2, with bolts 18 inserted from the exterior in curved openings 19, such fastenings being applied in a manner to engage the strongest portions of each section.
In Fig. 5 I have shown a plurality of pole sections 20, 21, 22 and 23, of different designs which may be used in lieu of those shown in the other figures, and while I have shown only a few of such designs it will be understood of course that not only square, octagonal and circular poles may be used, but those of any preferred configuration as well.
It will. be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes may be made in my device without departing from the spiritof the invention, and I, therefore, do not limit myself to What is shown in the drawings and described in the specification, but only as set forth in the appended claims.
Having thus fully described my said invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. A polecomprising a plurality of longitudinal sections disposed in abutting end to end relation, and clampingmeans securing the sections together, each section of said pole being made up of a plurality of independent members having complementarily formed interlocking elements, substantially as set forth.
2. A cast metal pole comprising a plurality of pole sections secured together in end to end relation, each of said pole sections comprising a plurality of longitudinally arranged complementarily formed members having interlocking elements to hold the p arts together and fastening elements for securing the sect-ions ot the pole together and for preventing the disengagement of the members forming each section, substantially as set forth.
3. A member adapted to be combined With other members of a similar character for forming a section of a pole, said membercomprising a pair of flanges disposed substantially at right angles, provided at one of their edges with outwardly and downwardly extending portions forming interlocking lugs for engagement with complementary lugs on an adjacent section, substantially as set forth.
4. A pole comprising a plurality of abutting sections disposed in end to end relation, each formed of a plurality of longitudinal complementary members having complementarily formed interlocking elements for holdmg the parts together, and fastening means for securing the pole sections together, sub stantially as set forth.
' 5. A pole comprising a plurality of sections each formed of a plurality of members provided with complementarily" formed interlocking portions, and concealed-fastening means for securing the sect-ions of the poles together whereby the sections are held in engagement, substantially as set forth.
6. The combination of a plurality of elongated members having complementary interlocking elements for holding the members together, said members When combined forming a pole section and being adapted to be secured in abutting end to end relation with other members to form a complete pole, and fastening elements holding said pole sections in end to end relation whereby the members forming each. section are held against relative longitudinal movement, substantially as set forth. p
In Witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand at New York, New York this 17th day of September, A. D. nineteen hundred and twentyeight.
