GEORGE \V. \VILLIAMS, OF ECONOMY, INDIANA.
FENCE-MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 360,189 dated March 29, 1887.
Application filed August 30, 1886. Serial No. 212,240. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. WILLIAMs, of Economy, in the county of \Vayne and State of Indiana, have invented a new and Improved Fence-Machine, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to the construction of a cheap, durable, and efficient fence-building device, and to a peculiar and novel form of tension device designed for use in connection therewith; and the invention consists of certain novel constructions to be hereinafter described, and specifically pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming apart of this specification, in which similar figures of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a fence, representing the same as it appears in the process of construction. Fig. 2 is an edge view of the fence, representing two of the fencebuilding devices or twisters in position, one of the twisters being shown in central longi tudinal section. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the twister and a portion of the fence, the wires of the fence and the end post,.however, being shown in full lines; and Fig. 4 is a perspective view of one of the twisters.
In constructing afence by means of my improved form of fence-building device I set up the posts of the fence, as shown at 10 and 11, and to the post 10 I secure staples 12, through which I pass the looped wires 13, the ends of the wires being carried to the post 11, where they are passed through staples 14, and then through other staples, 2, and, if necessary, through staples 3. The purpose of this arrangement of staples will be presently explained.
The twister proper consists of a bar, 16, formed with handles 17, and provided with metallic facing-plates 18, said plates being formed with grooves 19. In operation, this twister is placed between the two strands of the wire 13, and a picket, 20, is also placed between saidstrands, it being understood that there are as many of the wires 13 as'inay be desired to properly support the pickets, and that one of the twisters is employed in connec- 1 them through the staples l l l l l tion with each pair of the wires. After the picket 20 has been placed, as described, each twister is given two or more turns, the twister at this time being in the position in which the picket 21 is shown. After the picket 20 has been bound to place, the twister is slid along toward the post 11, and the picket 21 is inserted, after which a second twist is given to the wire 13, but in a direction opposite to that given in the first place, this alternate twisting preventing any undue twisting of the wires 13 between the twisters and the post 11.
By carrying the wires 13 through the staples 1 L and then turning them sharplyto carry 2, I subject the wires to a certain amount of tension, which may be varied by driving in the staples 2,01', if desired, the tension could be increased by providing a staple located as shown at 3 in Fig. 1. After the pickets have all been bound to place, the staples 14, 2, and 3 are driven home, thus clamping the wires to the post 11.
In some instances both strands of the wire 13 might be carried through a staple, as 5; but generally I would prefer to divide the strands, as shown in the central Fig. 1.
Having thus fully claim as new Patent 1. A tension device consisting, essentially, of staples, as 14:, and other staples arranged so that the wire passing from the staple 14 will be sharply bent in order that it may pass through the second staple, and a post into which said staples are driven, substantially as described.
2. The combination, in a fence-building n1achinc, of a tension device consisting, essentially, of staples 14 and 2, and the post into which said staples are driven, with a twisting device consisting,essentially, ofbars 1(3,formed with handles 17, and metallic facing-plates formed with grooves 19, said plates being secured to the bars 16, substantially as described.
