PATENT EMIL FISCHER, OF OALLIOPE, IOWA.
GATE.
PECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 330,474, dated November 17, 1885.
Application filed December 20, 1884. Serial No. 150,824. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EMIL FISCHER, a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Calliope, in the county of Sioux and State of Iowa, haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Gates; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to metallic gates, and has for its object to provide a gate so simple in design and structure that it may be conveniently made by any blacksmith with the ordinary tools common to such trade, and which, withal, will be strong, serviceable, and easily erected and taken to pieces.
The invention consists in certain novel constructions, combinations, and arrangements of parts, as will be hereinafter first fully described, and then pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figures l and 2 are elevations of my gate, taken from the opposite sides, the central securingplate in the latter figure being partly broken away. Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the gate. Figs. 4 and 5 are detached sections on, respectively, lines x x and yy, Fig. 1. Figs. 6, 7, and 8 are views similar to Figs. 1,. 2, and 3, except that they show a slightly modified form of gate. Fig. 9 is a detached section on linea z, Fig. 6. Fig. l0 is a detail view of one of the strut-braces shown in Figs. 6, 7, and 8; and Fig. 11 is a detached section on line z z', Fig. 6.
My gate, it will be seen, is intended primarily to be made of wrought-iron or similar metals.
In the preferred construction shown in Figs. l to 5, inclusive, I employ a center post, A, which has a longitudinal slot,A', cross-bars B, which have one end turned to form eyes B for the pintle of the hinges, and the side frames which form the end posts and the strutbraces. To form each of these side frames, I
take two bars of metal, one longer than the other, and bend them each into approximately the form of an equilateral triangle, the shorter bar forming the smaller triangle, and
it is arranged within the larger one, its base and sides being sufficiently far from those of the said larger triangle to form the intervening slots. rlhe two triangles form the end posts and strut-braces, the bases of the triangles forming the end posts, C C, and the sides thereof the strut-braces D D, as will be seen. The side frames may be extended upward slightly at F, to better receive the clamps F', by which the top barbed strand, G, is held to the end posts. This barb is held by a clamp, F2, similar to F', to the center post. These clamps F' F2, it will be seen, are composed of a bolt having an eye, f, on one end, which embraces the barbed strand, and its other end projected through a bearing -plate, f', and receiving the nut f2. The cross-bars B are secured by bolts E to the center post, and by bolts E' Ez to, respectively, the strutbraces and end posts. The strut-braces center against, and two on each side of, the center post midway the ends of the latter. The securing-plates H H are tted one on each side of the center of the gate, and are held by bolts H' securely to the center post above and below the strut-braces,and also to each of the strut-braces, as shown. By these plates the strut-braces are held firmly from any lateral movement, and being abutted against the center post are held thereby rmly from any displacement in the plane of the gate, and a strong connection can be obtained.
The bolts E' FP, it will be seen, are passed through the bars B, thence through the slots in the strut-braces and end posts, and through clamping plates I I I I, which latter are arranged on opposite sides of the gate from bars B B, and extend across the end posts and strut-braces close to the angle between such parts. By these clamping-plates I furnish a rm bearing for the bolts E' E, and connect the side frames at the angles of same in such manner as to form braces therefor, as will be seen.
The latch J is secured to the swinging end post G by a bolt, J', passed through the slot of the end post, so that the latch may be adjusted vertically to properly tit the catch on the gate-post. Y A
While I prefer the construction shown and before described, it is manifest that the con- IOO struction shown in Figs. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 1l, could be employed without departing from the broad principles of my invention. In the said construction the strut-braces and end posts are not integrally formed, but the struts are each made separately and looped at their outer ends over the end posts. This form of gate, however, comprises, like that shown in Figs. l, 2, andl3, end posts, crossbars, center post slotted vertically, slotted strut-braces centering against the center post, and the securing-plate, as will be appreciated.
Having thus described inyinvention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s
l. In a metallic gate, the combination of the center post, the strut-braces centering against the center post between the ends of the latter, and provided with openings iitted to receive bolts, the securing-plates placed one on each side of the center post, and fasteningbolts passed through the securing-plates and the openings in the strut-braces, substantially as set forth.
2. A metallic gate comprising end posts, cross-balsa center post slotted longitudinally, strut-braces slotted longitudinally and centering against the center post, the securingplates placed one on each side ofthe juncture of the center post and strut-braces, and bolts fastening said securing-plates to the brace and center post and the braces to the cross-bars, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination, with the triangular side frames bent to form the endposts and strut-braces, and the cross-bars B, of the bolts E E2, the central securing-plates, H, and the clamping-plates I, all arranged and operating substantially as and for the purposes specified.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
EMIL FISCHER.
