SPEOIFICATZEON 'fo rming part o f Leiter's Patent N o. 293,406, dated February 12, 1884.
' Application filed July 31, 1853. flhlodel.)
T all whom, it 777,661] concern Be it known that we, WILLIAM H. BLIss and JEREMIAH ,W.-BLIss, of Hamilton, Caldwell county, Missouri, have invented anew and Improved NVire-Stretcher, of which the following-is a full, clear, and exact description.
Our invention consists of a reel-support,
brake, and guides contrived for attachment to awagon-box to be driven alongside of the line of fence-posts for delivering wires to be attached to the posts and for stretchingv them along the posts, the attachment being arranged for readily taking out and putting in the reels when required, and also being contrived for a" m of Fig. 2. Fig. 4; is a transverse section of one of the guide-eyes for the wires, and Fig.
5 is a longitudinal section of the said guide-eye.
WVe make a bed-frame, a, with lugs or cars b, and a binding-screwgc, to be fastened on a wagon-box, d, crosswise, and having a sliding .extens'iome, to draw out of one end, on which frame we mount the wire-reel shaft f in bearings g of uprights h, having hinged caps a, that are fastened with hooks j, to be opened and closed readily to take out and put'in the shaft when desired. The shaft f has a crank, it, for turning it, a ratchet-dislr, Z, and a pawl, m, for holding it, and also a brake-lever, 0, for regulating the unwinding of the wire from it. Said shaft also has a disk, with stud-pins q and a nut, s, for securin g the spools t, whereon the wires are wound. Below the shaft there is an elbow-lever, u, that is pivoted at 12, and carries a guide-spool, w, in front of the reel, which is used mainly in reeling wire onto the spool, but will sometimes be serviceable in reeling it off. On the extension-frame 6 there is a"guide-stand, x, on the top of which there is a guide-pulley, y, with which there. is a guide-eye, a, through which the wire I) passesv from reel t onto said pulley y, and. another guideeye, 0, through which the wire runs afteripassing around pulley 3 From this latter guidethe wire is attached to the post (1, from any desired tension may be applied to the wire i asthe machine-is moved along by the wagon to deliver the wire to the posts.
The guides to and c are made in parts that are jointed together at 'e, and they have springfasteners f to hold them together, the object being .to apply or remove the wires without running them through the eyes to the end of the wire when it may be required to do so. Said-eyes are funnel-shaped at the ends, to facilitate the running of barbed wire through them, and they are swiveled at g to these supportingarms h, to allow them to turn as the wire may incline. These supporting-arms are pivoted to the stand a: at the center of pulley y to swing around itfor setting said eyes in different positions, and they rest 011 the slotted circular table 71, whereon they are fastened in any position by the clamp nuts and bolts j, whijch'swing along the slots Z in said table. For reeling off the wire onto the posts (1' these guides will be set in about the positions represented in Fig. 1, the wire I) passing around pulley y to the right hand; but for reeling on the wire the guides a 0 will be shifted to the other ends of their respective slots, and the wire, passing first through guide 0, will then pass around pulley y to the left hand, thence through guide a to the reel.
It will be seen that with this improved machine wires may be stretched along the fenceposts with great facility, and in case any ravine orother place may be encountered that cannot be crossed-by the wagon, the reel and wire may be readily taken out and carried along by hand until ground is reached where the wagon may be againused, when the reel the frame e can be shifted to the other end of frame a, and the machine can be used. in the same manner on the same side of the fence and going inthe reverse direction, the wire being drawn from under the spool in one direction and over it in the other direction.
Having thus described our invention, we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent v 1. The combination, in a Wire-stretching apparatus, of the reel-shaft f, guide-eyes a. and c, and the guide-pulley y, the said reel-shaft being provided with a friction-lever, 0, and a ratchet and paw] Zm, substantially as described.
2. The combination, in a wire-stretchingapparatus, of the reel-shaft f, guide-eyesaoand o, and the guide-pulley y, the said reel shaft having hinged and hooked bearing-caps, and
the guide-eyes being arranged to open and close for the removal of the reel and wire and the replacing of the same, substantially as de-' scribed.
3. The combination, in a wirestretching ap-.
paratus, of the guide-pulley y'and the guideeyes a and c, said guide-eyesbeing swiveled to their bearing-arms h, and said arms pivoted the bed-frame-a, having ears or lugs 12, and a binding-screw, the wire-reel mounted onf sai'd bed-frame, the extension 0 of said bed-frame, and the guide-eyes a and c. mounted on said extension, substantially as described.
-6. The combination of the spool-guide w, inounted on the elbow-lever-u,- with the wirereel t, and the guide-eyes a" and c, and the .guidepulley y, substantially as described.
