PORTABLE FENCE.

,'PoRTABLE FENCE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 254,214, dated February 28, 1882.
f Application tiled January 5, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WM. H. HAY, of Prospect, in the conn' ty 'of Butler and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Portable Fences; and I hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact (lescription thereof, reference being had tothe accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which Figure l is a perspective view of a panel of the fence set up. Fig. 2 represents a panel of the fence ready for transportation.
My invention relates to portable fences, and has for its object to provide a portable fence that can be set up with -`facility on any character of ground, be it level or not, or stony or swampy, and which can be packed for trailsportationwith great economy of space without detaehing any of its parts.
My invention consists in a panel for fences, composed of a series of'longitudinal planks or bars held together by a series of pairs of posts alternating first on one side of the planks and then on the other, there being a narrow space between the posts ot' each pair, and into said spaces are pivoted supportin glegs, all of which will hereinafter be more particularly described and specifically claimed.
In order that those skilled in the art may make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe the manner in which I have carried it out.
In the said drawings, A A represent the planks forming the horizontal portion of the fence. On these planks are secured a series of pairs of posts, B B, there being about three 'pairs of posts to each panel, and the pairs being arranged alternately, first on one side and then on the other of the planks, as seen in Fig. 1. The posts are so secured that there is a narrow intervening space, a a., betweenthe posts of each pair, and into this space may be folded a swinging or pivoted supporting-leg, C C, secured near the upper ends of posts B B by means of bolts b b. When the panels are set up, as seen in Fig. 1, the legs are spread out and adapt themselves to the inequalities of the ground. I prefer to set the panels alternately in reverse, so that the panels will brace one another. When the panels are packed for transportation the legs or supports (l C fold down into the spaces a c and lie flush with the surfaces ot the posts, thereby allowing the panels to pack snugly for said transportation. This construction enables me to utilize a panel for a flood-gate over small streams by making the supports of increased length, and, if desirable, the bot-tom of one or more panels may be raised from the ground, so
as to allow small stock to pass beneath and' yet prevent large stock from passing.
Having thus described my invention, what Iclaim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-' The portable fencepanel consisting of the planks A A, held together by the posts B B, arranged on their alternating opposite sides in pairs with the intervening spaces, aa, and the swinging supports pivoted by bolts b b between and near the top of each pair of posts, all constructed, arranged, and operated as set forth.
WM. HENRY HAY.
