WIRE-FENCE MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 351,842, dated November 2, 1886.
Application filed March 4, 1886.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SEYMOUR PIERCE, a resident of, Dublin, Indiana, have' made cer tain new and useful Improvements in Wire- Fence Machines, a description of which is set forth in the following specication, reference being made to the accompanying drawings, in the several gures of which like letters represent like parts. l
My invention relates to mechanism for mak-` ing fences of wire and slats; and itconsists in the several improvements hereinafter more fully described and claimed, and will be unf v"derstood from the following description.
In the drawings, Figure l represents a side view of the twisters and their casing and the mechanism for revolving the same so as to twist the wire, showing also the adjustable bar which carries the. tension-pulleys. Fig. 2 is an edgewise View of the frame-work that incloses the twisters, giving a side view of the lever for moving the twisting mechanism in and out toward the slats. Fig. 3 is a view of the same mechanism shown in Fig. l, looking at it from the opposite side, showing the location of the adjustable spacer. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the machine set up in the field for operation, witha section of the completed fence in proper relation thereto. Fig. 5-is a 'detail side view of the adjustable spacer. Fig. 6 is a detail side View of a part of the tension and clamping bars.
In detail, C is a framework or casing in which the pinions p are journaled, these pinions having holes opposite each other through' which the wires pass, the journals being markeds` p. The central portions of these pinions are adapted to intermesh with the cogs of toothed sectors,'which have bearings at 1 in the sides of the casing, and are vconnected at their outer ends at 2 to a bar, b,
which is provided with a handle, h, for oper` ating the mechanism. vIn the drawings three of these sectors are shown, but five or six are to be used in a full-sized machine, all being connected by a similar mechanism to that shown in Figs. 1 and 3. By moving the handle h up and down the sectors are caused to rotate on their bearings and revolve the pinions p, and as the wires pass through these the effect, of course, is to twist the wire.
having a handle or lever, l.
seal No. 193,917. (No moaei.)
On the outside of the casing C, and connected thereto by means of the links Z and Zg and the'hinges h and h2, is a crank-rod, c, This crank-rod has a rest or bearing in a block, b', which is intended to beheld in the hand, and the lower portion of this crank-rod has a bearing in the base B, the lower end of the casing resting loosely on this base, so that by means of the crank and its lever the casing C may be drawn away from or pushed toward the fence during the operation of .weaving the wire, as may be desired.
f is au upright framework or standard,
which is intended to carry the guiding and tension mechanism, so that the wire may be made taut before it enters the bearings of the pinions p. This upright is set away at asuitable distance from the casing C, and the wire which is intended to be used is taken from the 4spools or reels`and carried through a guide,
c', made of two pieces of wood, fastened to the back side of the frame f, as shown in Fig. 6, and then passes forward and under a sheavepulley, o", and onward to the twisters sp of the pinions. These sheave-pulleys are fastened to a secondary upright piece, b2, which is adapted to slide upon the part f and to be operated ,so as to be forced down or drawn up by means of a screw mechanism, s', located on the top t of the piece f, so that by turning this screw the sheavepulleys fr and the bar which carries them maybe forced downward in the manner of a tightening-pulley, increasing the tension or strain upon the wire after it has left the clamp c', as shown in Fig. 6. In Fig. 4 the guide is shown located in front of the frame f, being in the reverse position from that shown in Fig. 6, and it may be used in either position, but that shown in Fig. 6 is preferable.
In Fig. 5 is shown an adjustable spacer, a, which is simply a block lof K wood having two projections of different lengths, adapted to slide in a groove formed of two pieces, d d2, of wood, nailed on the outside of the casing G. It is shown in position in Fig. 3 at the bottom of the casing, and these spacers may be at the top and at the bottom of this casing, as desired. The object of this spacer is to regulate the distance between the slats in making the fence.
IOO.
The machine operates as follows: The casing is set upon a base, B, which consists of a suitable plank, the tightening mechanism supported on the frame j" being set up at a suitable distance from the casing. lWire is then stretched from the one through the other and fastened to any suitable post beyond or at the corner, and the twisting begins. A slat is set up on the outside of the casing against the spacer a between the stretched wires. The twisters s p are revolved by means of the toothed sector and its connections, and the wires are twisted between the picket and the casing. The casing is then thrown away by mea-11s of the crank-rod a sufficient distance from the pichet, the bottom of the crank-rod c being lifted out from the hole in the base B, which is only made by the pointed end of this crank-rcd pressing suiiiciently far into the base B to hold the rod from slipping. Another slat is put in, the wire is then twisted, and the casing again removed. The operation is again repeated until this casing has been drawn up so close to the framef that the lat ter has to be removed. The operation is repeated as long as desired.
The machine is intended to be used in the ield, and the posts are set for a whole line of fence before the operation of twisting is begun, and as each post is passed the wire is twisted and fastened to the post by means of a suitable sta-ple.
V hat I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is the following:
l. The casing C, inclosing the twisting-pinionsp, having bearings sp in the sides of such casing, the toothed sectors s, arranged to intermesh with the pinions p, the bar b, pivoted to the sectors s, and handle h, for operating the same, all combined substantially as described.
2. The casing C, carrying twisting mechanism and movable on the supporting-base B, the erank-rods c, connected by suitable links to the outside of such casing, and the lever Z, for
operating such crank-rod, all combined substantially as described.
The adjustable spacer a, having projections of dierentlengths,detachably connected to the side of the casing C, carrying twisting mechanism, substantially as described.
4. The easing C, inclosing the geared pinions p, and the toothed sectors s and their connected rods and levers for revolving the twisters for twisting the wire, the adjustable spacer a, detachably connected to one side of such casing, andthe crank-rod c and its lever to the other for moving the casing out or in as desired, all combined substantially as described.
5. In awire-fence machine, aseries of twisters carrying the wires longitudinally through them, journaled in the sides of a casing which partly incloses toothed sectors engaging with the geared central portions of the twisters, a device connected to each of the sectors for operating them together, a lever-connection for moving such casing and its twisting mechanism in or out toward the fence-section under construction, and an upright standard carrying a clamping and adjustable tension mechanism for the wire, all combined substantially as described.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my' hand this lst day of March, 1886.
SEYMOUR PIERCE.
