FENCE-MAKING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 367,187, dated July 26, 1887.
Application filed April 25, 1887. Serial No. 236,027. (Mode-l.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, BENJAMIN F. CHAND LER, of Kingston Oentre,.in the county of Delaware and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fence-Mali ing Machines; and I do hereby 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 pertains to make and use it, reference being bad to the accompanying' drawings, which form part ,of this specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in fenoe-making machinery; and it consists in, first, the combination, with one of the posts of the fence, of a metallic supporting-frame provided with hooks or sharp points for catching in the posts, a chain for securing the frame to the post, a swiveled screw-threaded bearing for the-tightening-screw, which is provided with a hook at one end and a handle at the other, a swiveled hook to which the screw is connected at its hooked end, and the eveningbar, to which the swiveled hook is fastened; and, second, the arrangement and combination of parts, which will be more fully described hereinafter, and pointed out in the claims.
The object of my invention is to provide a machine by means of which the wires can be twisted around the pickets, and which is pro vided with means for attaching the tighteningscrew to one of the posts, whereby the wires 4 are supported in position ready to be twisted.
' twisted around the pickets, are passed through the twisting-wheels D, journaled in the slotted frame E, then over opposite sides of the evening-bar F, between the tension device G, and thence to the drums upon which the wire is wrapped beyond the. post B. Each one of the twisting-wheels D is provided with two sets of holes, which are placed at different distances apart, so that the wires can be adjusted to the of tension upon the wires.
thickness of the pickets or lumber which is being used. These wheels are journaled in suitable bearings, H,which are held in position by means of the clamping-bolts I, which pass through the slots J in the frame E. To the bearings H at one end are secured the bearings J, which extend outward at right angles thereto, and in which bearings J arejournaled the operatingwheels K, which operate the twisting-wheels D. Each one of these wheels K is provided with a crank of its own, and each of the bearings H J are made vertically adjustable in the slots without any reference to the others. The frame E will preferably be provided with five sets of slots, so that five wires can be used; but any lesser number of twisting-devices may be used, as may be preferred. This frame E is provided with a supporting caster, L, at its lower end, which caster runs upon the board M, which is placed upon the ground between the post A B. By means of this caster the frame E can be moved along from picket to picket with perfect ease.
The evening-bar F is made separate and independent of the frame E, and is provided with guides or projections N upon opposite sidesffor the purpose of supporting the different wires 0 in position, so that they will eX- tend straight from the bar directly to the twisting-wheels, as shown. Secured to this evening-bar F is the metallic frame O, in which is swiveled the hook P, by means of which the bar F is held in position. This hook P is swiveled in its frame 0, so that it can revolve freely with the adjusting-screw Q. Bearing against that edge of the evening-bar which comes neXt to the post B are the tension devices G, between which the wires are held. These devices G consist of two plates which are clamped togetherby means of nuts and screws, so as to produce any desired amount These tension devices bear against the edges of the eveningbar, and are supported in position upon the wires.
Applied to the outer edge of the post 13 is the metallic frame R, which is provided with hooks S at its corner to catch on the post B, and which has the chain Tfastened to it. The outer end of the chain T is fastened to a suit- IOC able catch, U, which is screwed or otherwise 7 detaehably fastened to the post 13. The hooks S and the chain T serve to secure this metallic frame R to the post, so as to support the tightening-screw Q in position. Journaled in the outer edge of the frame R is the swiveled screw-threaded bearing V, through which the screw passes. This bearing V is swiveled in position, so as to allow the screw to turn freely in any position. \Vhen this screw Q is tightened up, a direct strain is brought to bear upon the evening-bar F and the tension devices, whereby the wires and the bar are supported in position. The strain upon the screw Q is transferred to the frame R, and hence it becomes necessary to provide the hooks S and the chain'T to support it in position.
After the wires have been fastened to the post A, passed through the twisting-wheels O D in the frame E, along opposite sides of the evening-bar F, and through the tension device G, the screwQ is turned until the evening-bar F is made to exert a sufficient inward pull upon the tension device G. The wires being stretched, it is only necessary to place the pickets in position between them and then turn separately each one of the wheels K, which in as shown.
2. The combination of the frame It, provided with the hooks upon one end, the chain which is fastened to the hooked end of the frame, the screw-threaded bearing for the screw, the screw, the evening-bar, the swiveled hook to engage with the screw, and the tension devices for the wires, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
BENJAMIN F. CHANDLER.
