Jzforney Patented June 21, 1932 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ROLLAND G. WILLIAMS, OF BRANFORD, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR T0 MALLEABLE IRON t FITTINGS COMPANY, OF BRANFORD, CONNECTICUT, A CORPORATION OF CONNECT- ICU'T HIGHWAY GUARD FENCE Application filed April 30, 1931. Serial No. 534,094.
My invention relates to highway guard fences such as are made of iron of tubular form in which the fence rails and their securing fixtures are so secured to fixtures clamped to the fence posts, that the impact of a vehicle against the rail fixtures will swing the latter to one side without causing material damage to them or to the fence posts.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification,
Figure 1 is an elevation of my fence,
Figure 2 is a view at the line 22 ure 1,
Figure 3 is a section at the line 33 of Figure 1, and
Figure 4 is a view at the line 44 of Figure 2.
Similar numerals of reference denote like parts in the several figures of the drawing.
1 are the fence posts and 2 the fence rails.
improved of Fig- 3 is a socket embracing the post and having at the rear spaced terminals in the form of ears 4 through which a threaded bolt 5 is passed and a nut 6 driven on the end of the bolt to clamp the socket firmly to the post.
From the front of the socket 3 at the upper and lower portions thereof extend lugs 7 in spaced relation and perforated vertically.
8 is a ring through which the fence rail passes and 9 a set screw driven through the ring against the rail to secure it.
From the rear of this ring extend lugs 10 which have threaded bolts 11 depending integrally therefrom, and these bolts are passed through the lugs 10 and nuts 12 driven on the bolts to secure the ring 8 firmly in offset relation with respect to the post. 7
Should a vehicle strike a rail and come in contact with the ring, the force of the impact would overcome the binding effect of the nuts and merely swing the ring to one side with- .in highway What is claimed is A means for clamping the rods to the posts guard fences consisting of a socket for securing around a post, spaced upper and lower lugs extending from its front.
