SCHUYLER J. MUNN, OF ADRIAN, MICHIGAN.
FENCE-POST.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 342,922, dated June 1, 1886. Application filed December 5, 1885. Serial No. 18!,782. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, SoHUYLER J. MUNN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Adrian, county of Lenawee, State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Fence-Post, of which the following is a specification.
This invention consists in the construction of an improved post for use in wire fences.
- substantially as hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawings forming a part of this specification, Figure 1 is a side elevation of the post, with the groundin vertical section; Fig. 2, an elevation looking from a point at the left of Fig. 1; Fig. 3, an enlarged detail of Fig. 2 in perspective, the same beinga cla1nping-bloek of the post; Fig. 4, a perspective of two clamping-blocks, showing how they clamp the wire; and Fig. 5 is a perspective of the base of the post.
Referring to the letters of reference marked on the drawings, B is the tapered base of the post, having a flange heading, 0, to rest upon a block or plank, P, to hold the post firmly upright. Above the flange and integral therewith and with the base a is an upward projection having mortises in two opposite sides, to receive the base ends of the strips D D of the post. These strips or standards D have holes in said base ends, which slip over the studs V of the upward projection of the base B, by which means when the standards are bolted together said standards are detachably secured in a firm upright position. Between the standards are clamping-blocks A, grooved to fit against the fence-wire c and mortises s in the sides on two sides opposite to each other,
to receive the standards D. Bolts pass through the standards and the clamping-blocks, the latter of which have holes t to receive said bolts.
Brace-rods u u may be employed at such locations in the fence as may be deemed practical, said rods extending from the top of the post to stones 0', buried in the ground, said stones or their equivalent being secured to the end of the rods u it. These brace-rods may not always be needed, as in some cases the flange O, resting on the plank I, through which the spur-base B passes, will be a sulficient brace or support to hold the post in an upright position.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new isl. A post for wire fences, consisting of the base, upright standards secured at their lower ends to said base, clamping-blocks between the standards at proper locations, and provided with grooves in their engaging faces to receive the wire, and means for clamping the blocks against the wire, substantially as set forth.
2. The post composed of the spur-base provided with the flange and upward extension having the side mortises and studs, and the standards and olampi ng-blocks, all constructed and combined substantially as set forth.
In testimony of the foregoing I have hereunto subscribed my name in presence of two witnesses.
SCHUYLER J. MUNN.
