I wIR: SUPPORTING DEVICE' Filed July 17, 1947 Gran G. LEw
Patented Nov. 18, 1952 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 7 Claims.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in wire supporting devices, and more particularly to such a device adapted to support an electric wire upon a metal post in insulated relation thereto;
In recent years it has become quite common to` electrify fences or enclosures utilized for keeping a, herd of cattle or other animals within a confined area. A single electric wire is usually employed which is connected to a source of electric energy of sufiicient power to impart to an animal contacting the charged wire a jolt or shock of sufficient intensity to cause the animal to quickly step back out of contact with the wire, it being understood that the electric charge induced in the wire is not of sufiicient power to injure the animal. It is quite customary in rural districts to utilize metal fence posts of more or less standard construction, which are adapted to be driven into the ground to a suitable depth to support the posts in upright position.
It is an object of the present invention, therefore, to provide a wire supporting device which is so constructed that it may be quickly Secured to a metallic post by a snap-on action, and whereby the element is frictionally retained in position on the post.
A further object of the invention is to provide wire supporting devices comprising an insulating block having opposed resilient arms secured thereto adapted to embrace a portion of a metallic fence post, thereby to frictionally secure the device in position upon the post, and a suitable wire supporting hook being secured to the insulating block in insulated relation to the resilient arms, whereby an electric wire may be quickly strung on a row of post without the use of tools, said wire supporting devices being so constructed that they may be quickly snapped onto the posts at the proper elevation, whereby the wire-receiving hooks provided thereon will be in proper position to receive the wire.
Other objects of the invention reside in the simple and inexpensive Construction of the device, whereby it may readily be manufactured in quantity production at low cost; in the provision of such a device comprisng an elongated body of insulating material having means for removably supporting it upon a metal fence post, and whereby it will be retained on said post in adjusted position, and said body having a spring actuated hook or clip thereon for releasably receiving an electric wire and whereby the wire is not likely to accidentally become detached from the wire supporting device.
Other objects of the invention will appear from the following description and the accompanying drawings and will be pointed out in the annexed claims.
In the accompanying drawings there has been disclosed a structure designed to carry out the various objects of the invention, but it is to be understood that the invention is not confined to the exact features shown, as various changes may be made within the scope of the claims which follow.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a view showing an electric wire supported on two fence posts by the novel wire supu porting device herein disclosed;
Figure 2 is an enlarged detail View of a portion of a conventional metal fence post showing the invention applied thereto;
Figure 3 is a sectional plan view on the line a 3-3 of Figure 2;
Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 2, but showing a device of slightly different Construction;
Figure 5 is a View showing a device having its ends notched to receive spaced projections on the fence posts;
Figure 6 is a view showing a wire supporting device of slightly modified Construction;
Figure 7 is a sectional plan view on the line 7-1 of Figure 6;
Figure 8 is a perspective view showing a series of fence posts With a wire secured thereto by the novel wire supporting device herein disclosed; and
Figure 9 is a. perspective View showing the invention applied to a conventional wooden fence post.
In the selected embodiment of th invention herein disclosed, there is illustrated in Figure 1, for purposes of disclosure, a section of fencing comprising the usual upright metallic fence posts 2, having their lower ends suitably anchored in the ground in the usual manner. Metallic fence posts such as are commonly utilized in the erection of rural fences, are usually 'sliding down on 'the posts when wired thereto.;
This is a common and well-known practice, and therefore need not be further described in detail.
A fence composed of two or more wires stretched along in vertically spaced relation upon the fence posts 2 may' serve to keep certain animals Withinan enclosure. There are many animals, however, as for example cattle, which often exert considerable strain on the Wires of a fence as a result of reaching under or over the wires for fresh vegetation.
To prevent the cattle from thus stretching and straining the wires, it has been found that by stringing an electric wire along the'fence where it may readily be contacted by cattle and other animals tending to reach under or over e the wires, that the slight jolt or shock imparted to the'animals when they contact'the live 'wire .will causeLthem to quickly jump .back away from the fence, into jthe enclosure, and as a result of I such jolts and shocks ;the cattle may soon learn to stay clear of the fence wires.
' 'An electric wire tobeused for the above'purpose,must be insulat'ed from the upright metal- 'lic supporting posts, and the present inven'tion makes it possible to quickly string an eleric wire alonga fence composed 'of metallic supporting posts with a minimum of effort and without the use' of tools.
The inventon herein disclosed comprises an elongated body 8 of a suitable nsulating material which is formed with a longitudinally disposed central groove 9 adapted to receive the rib 6 provided-upon the front face 5 of the supporting posts 2. Secured to the insulating block 8 is a pair of opposed resilient arms ll, which,
as; shown in Figures 2,and 3, may be made from a si-nghapiece of wirehaving its central ,portion fixed in an aperture in the insulating block 8 *with its opposed ends bent to form the arms H as shown in Figures 2 and 3.
, ;The arms li are so shaped that the insulating blok-may read'ly ;beisecured in position upon' the front face of the supporting post 2 at any ;desired elevation by simply engaging the resilient ;arms-i l-with the-fiangesS, as shown 'in Figures 2 and 3, whereby the insulating'block will be :firmly securedto thepost; but in such amanner that it may readily be ;detached therefrcm 'withi out to'olswheneverzdesired.
Secured to the outer or front face'of the insulating block 8' in spaced---relation to :the intermediate portionof the-wire forming the arms i 'll'is a spring'h'ook; genera-lly'designated bythe numeral l2. The hook has one end anchored in the insulatingblock,;-as shown at [3,- and its *opposite end 14* is' bent as shown in Figura-2,
whereby the free end portion i& of the hook When a wire is' thus engagedxwith the hook l2 'ofthe wire holding device, the electric wire will be insulated from the metallic supporting posts 2 as well as from the supporting arms H of the device, as may readily be noted by reference to Figure 2. The longitudinally extending recess or groove 9 in the insulating block 8 cooperates with the rib 6 on the front face of the post to prevent the device, as a whole, from relatively rotating upon the post, as will be understood. In Figura 1 of the application drawing there is shown a wire !5 mounted on two spaced metallic fence posts by means of the novel wire supporting device herein disclosd.
In Figure 4 there is shown a wire supporting device of slightly different construction, comprising `an 'elongated insulating body ll having a transverse notch or recess r !8' therein adapted to receive one of the vertically spaced lugs 'I usually provided on the posts, as shown in the application drawing. A pair of spring actuated legs !9 are Secured to the upper portion of the insu- 'lating block ll and are adapted to frictionally engage the. opposed fianges 3 of the post in a man- 'ner similar' to the device shown in Figure 3.
-' and lower ends formed with ` notchesfor recesses 22 and 23, respectively, adapted to receive -adjacently disposed ,spacedprojecting lugs 'I of the supporting post 2,* thereby to prevent `the insulation block 2| from relatively. rotatingupon .the post,.and;also whereby theblock 2! cannot Shift vertically thereon.
Springactuated legs24 are secured tothein- ;sulating block 2 l in a-`manner similar to .the legs ll-H shown in Figures 2 and 4,' andare adapted to embrace the flanges 3-ofthepost to secure thexwireholdr: thereto.
A suitable hook 25, similar to the hook l 2 :shown inFigure 2 is provided on the insulatingblock 2| for receiving and supportingthe wire-|5,.in-
dicated by dotted linesin Figure.
;In Fig ures- &and 7 there is illustrated a device comprising an insulatingblockr 26- similarto .the
oneshown in Figures -2 and 3, having spring-Laclation tothearms 21. The clips 28 oo-act to -'eceive and-secure .the electric wire !5 to the wire holding device. g
"In Figure 9 there is shown an insulating block 29 adapted'to besecuredto a conventionalwooden -fence post 3| -by means of a nail or screw-32. -To -thus secure theinsulating block to a fencepost, the body of the insulating block is provided-with a suitable aperture `which may be counterbored as shown,- to secure the nail orscrewhead.
While the' wire supporting device hereinc-,dis-
;closed has `beenshown and-described as :being lutilized fonsupporting-:an electrified wire in i positionto be engaged 1 by cattle -or other animals for %the purpose of retaining them :withinalconfined'area, it isto be understoodthat itl may be utilized for -detachablyrsupporting other- Wires onpoles or suitable uprghts without departing from the ,scope of theinven'tion.
The novel wire holding device herein disclosed has beenfound extremely practical and efiicient in actual use. Its construction is such that it may be quickly snapped onto a conventional fence post at any desired elevation, and the resilient legs thereof will retain the member in its selected position without danger of ever becoming accidentally detached from the post. The resilient legs secured to the insulating block make it possible to snap the devce onto a fence post with one hand after which the wire may be quickly snapped into position in the hook secured to the insulating block, it being understood that the hook !2 is preferably of resilient material Whereby it may readily flex, as indicated by the dotted lines in Figure 2, to permit the wire to be passed between the free end of the hook and the adjacent face of the insulating block 8.
It will also be noted that the devce, as a whole, is extremely simple and inexpensive in construction, and readily lends itself to manufacture in quantity production at low cost. It is also small and compact whereby a number of such devices may readily be carried in a pocket, if so desired, when installing or stringing an electric wire on a row of fenceposts.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that I have accomplished at least the principal objects of my invention, and it will also be apparent to those skilled in the art that the embodiments herein described may be variously changed and modified without departing from the spirit of the invention, and that the invention is capable of uses and has advantages not herein specifically described; hence it will be appreciated that the herein disclosed embodiments are illustrative only, and that my invention is not limited thereto.
