FENCE-MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming pari: of Letters Patent No. 368,261, dated August 16, 1887.
Application filed April 19, 1887. Serial No. 235,334. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, BENJAMIN A. WnLDs, of Jackson, in the county of Jackson and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Fence-Machines; and I do hereby declare that the followingis a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in fence making machines, and is especially designed as an improvement upon Letters Patent of the United States granted to me November 9, 1886, No. 352,212.
The invention consists in the peculiar construction, arrangement, and combinations of the various parts, all as more fully hereinafter set forth.
Figure l is a perspective view of my improved machine as set up ready for use. Figs. 2, 3, 4, and 5 are detail views of diferentparts.
In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, A represents the frame of the machine, which may be of any desired height, and inside of which are journaled a suitable number of twisting-wheels, B, which are connected together by means of idler wheels or pinions C. Vhen the crank D is applied to the shaft E, the two beveled wheels F cause all .of the twisting and idler wheels to revolve together. The wires are used in pairs, and are passed through openings made through the twistings-wheels in the usual manner,so that when the wheels are made to revolve the wires are twisted together.
In the lower part of the frame A is properly journaled a bearing-wheel, G, designed to rest and travel upon a plank, G. H is a lever fulcrumed to or near the lower end of the frame upon one side thereof, and is connected by means of a link, I, which passes through a slot, a, in the frame, to one arm of the bellcrank J, the free end of which acts as a dog to engage with the base-plank upon which the machine rests.
K is a spring connecting the lever H with the frame A.
Secured to the side of the frame A are a suitable number of sockets, L, into which the adjustable guides M are placed. These guides serve to regulate the distance of the pickets from the side of the machine, as shown, coming in contact with the edge of the picket and holding it while the Wire is being twisted. These guides are made removable, so that ones of different lengths can be used, according to the distance desired between the pickets.
In order to brace the upper end of the frame and hold it in an upright position, there is pivoted to the perforated plate N the brace O, having yits outer free end bent so as to catch behind the edge of the last paling secured in position. This prevents the upper end of the machine from being forced forward and causing it to perform irregular work.
For the purpose of holding the upper ends of the' pickets upon a horizontal lever, there is adj ustably secured to the frame A the gage Q. This gage consists of a piece of iron bent at a right angle, and which projects above the u'pper end of the frame and beyond its side just far enough over the picket which is being inserted in place.
The upright l?, to which the tension-blocks Q are fastened, is placed any desired distance beyond the machine, and is anchored to the ground in anyconvenient manner. The blocks Q are fastened to the standard I) by means of bolts S, which pass through the standard and the blocks, and which bolts are provided with rubber washers at one end, and with a nut provided with a handle or lever at the other. Upon the inside of cach of these blocks is made a series of recesses to receive the dowels which project from the standard. The wires in passing between the blocks Q and the uprights pass in between these dowel-pins and over t-he bolt, and are thus given a sufficient kink to hold them more rmly.
To move the machine along upon the base plank after a picket has been secured in place, the lever H is depressed, which releases the dog from the plank. The machine can then be pushed to the desired position, the lever released, when the spring will cause the dog to again engage with the plank.
W is a spirit-level inserted in the frame A, and by means of which the operator can readily adjust the pickets and machine in a plumb vertical position.
\Vhat I claim as my invention is 1. In combination with the frame A of a fence-making machine provided with a bear- IOO ' E, bevel-Wheels F, Wheel G,lever H,link I, bellcrank dog J, spring K, sockets L, adjustable guides M, support N, brace O, upright I?, tension-blocks Q', bolts S, and spirit-level W, the parts being constructed, arranged, and operatp ing substantially in the manner and for the purposes specified.
