@vented Deo, 11, 1888.A
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JEREMIAH A. BARBER, OF NEVVILLE, INDIANA.
FENCE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 394,241, dated December 11, 1888.
Application filed July 2l, 1888. Seal No. 280,584. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, JEREMTAH A. BARBER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newville, in the county of De Kalb and State of Indiana, have invented new and useful Improvements in Fences, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in fences; and it consists in a certain novel construction and arrangement of parts, fully described hereinafter in connection with the drawings, and specifically pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying` drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of a fence embodying my improvements. Fig. 2 is a similar view of a fence constructed according to my invention, in which boards, instead of rails, are used in the panels. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view of the tence on the line .fr rc of l.
Referring by letter to the dra-wings, A A designate inclined stakes, which are arranged in pairs at intervals along the line of the fence, and they intersect each other near their npper ends, thereby forming upper angles, a.. The intersections of the said stakes are bound with tie-wires B, which are placed thereon as follows: The stakes are arranged side by side, the wire is wrapped around them near their upper ends, and then the lower ends of the stakes are separated and placed at the desired distance apart, thus twisting the ti e-wi res and causing the upper ends ot the stakes to be drawn tightly together.
The panels C C of the improved fence are formed entirely separate from each other and from the stakes, and are constructed as follows: The upper ends of connecting-wires D D are fixed to the top panel-rail, E, near its ends, the said wires are passed around the second panel-rail, F, and are then wrapped one or more times around the portion of wire above the said rail. The wiresare then extended down to the third rail, G, and after passing around the same are wrapped around the portion of the wire above the rail, and so on until the desired number of rails have been connected in this way.
After the panels are formed their top rails are placed in the upper angles, u. a, which are formed by theinclined stakes, and the bottom rails, H, are bound to the lower ends of the stakes by tie-wires I I, to prevent the panels from being lifted from the stakes or accidentally detached or displaced. This wire I is preferably extended to form the wire K, which connects the lower ends of adjacent stakes.
It will be seen that this fence may be constructed ready for erection before the timber is brought on the ground by binding the upper ends of the stakes together, as described, and connecting the rails of the panels, and therefore, when the parts are deposited on the site of the proposed fence, it is only necessary to arrange the stakes at the desired distance apart, separate their lower'ends, hang the panels on the stakes in the manner described, and bind the bottom panelrails to the stakes.
As a further precaution to guard against displacement of the felice, I connect the intersections of the stakes with suitable blocks or pins, I., driven in the ground at suitable distances from the fence on the side opposite to that on which the panels are hung by the tension-wires M.
In Fig. 3 I have illustrated a fence embodyn ing my improvements which is composed of boards instead of rails, the panel-boards being connected at their ends (and, if desirable, at their centers) by the cleats or braces N N, the panels in this form being hung on the stakes in the same manner as before described. This method of connecting the parts of the fence, as will be readily seen, is simple, and at the same time effective, and it enables a fence to be quickly and easily erected after it is deposited on the site, and also enables it t0 be readily removed without damage.
Having thus described the invention, I clai1n- In a felice, the combination, with the inclined stakes intersecting each other near their upper ends, oi the separable panels C C, comprising the rails, and t-he connectingwires D D, connected at their upper ends to the top rails, extending to and around the Second rail, and passing around the portionv In testimony that I oiaim the foregoing as of the Wire above the said rail, extending to my own I have hereto afiixed my signature in and around the third rail, and passing around presence of two witnesses.
the portion of the Wire above the said rail, J EREMIAH A. BARBER. 5 and so on throughout, the top rails of the Witnesses:
panels being hung in the upper angles formed ANDREW .I BAXTER,
by the stakes, substantially as specified. J. H. SMITH.
