WIRE-FENCE BARB. No,171,008, Patented Dec..14, 1875.
WITNESSES: V VENTOII:
NI'IED STATES I HENRY N. FRENTRESS, OF DUNLEITH, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN WIRE-FENCE BARBS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 171,008, dated December 14, 1875; application filed September 25, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY N. FREN'DRESS, o Dunleith, in the county of Jo Daviess and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful improvement in Barbs for'Wire-Fences, of which the following is a specification:
Figure 1 is a front view of one of my improved barbs shown as applied to a Wire cord. Fig. 2 is a side view of the same, the wire cord being shown in cross-section. Fig.3 isa plan View of one of the barbs after being cut out and before being bent.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
The object of this invention is to furnish improved barbs for wire-fence, which shall be simple in construction, inexpensive in manufacture, and reliable in use, keeping theirplaces securely.
The invention consists in the barbs formed by cutting thin sheet metal into diamond form, slitting them from the acute angles nearly to the center, and bending the prongs at each end at an angle with each other to adapt them to be twisted into a two'strand wire-cord, as hereinafter fully described.
A represents one of my improved barbs, which is made of thin sheet-steel, or other suitable sheet metal. The barbs A are cut into diamond shape, as shown in Fig. 3, and are slit from their acute angles nearly to their centers, so as to form four prongs. The four prongs are then bent at the inner ends of the slits, the two prongs at each end of the diamond-shaped blank being bent from each other at an angle, so that the two prongs upon each side may be parallel with each other,
claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The barbs A, formed by cutting thin sheet metal into diamond form, slitting them from the acute angles nearly to the centers, and bending the prongs at each end at an angle with each other to adapt them to be twisted into a two-strand wire-cord, substantially as herein shown and described.
HENRY N. FRENTRESS.
