FREMONT E. \VOOD, OF Y'ITOCA, ARIZONA TERRITORY.
LIGHTNING-CONDUCTOR FOR WIRE FENCES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 401,095, dated April 9, 1889.
Application filed November 28, 1888- Serial No. 292,058. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
lie it known that l, FREMONT E. \VOOD, of Yucca,in the county of Mojave and Territory of Arizona, have invented a new and Improved Lightning Conductor for 'Wire Fences, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
One of the greatest ob j cctions to the present form of wire or barbed-wire fences is that in electric storms the wires of the fence attract the electric fluid, and as the wires are usually practically insulated from the ground it frequently happens that the current passing over the wires discharges through the body of an animal standing close to the wires, severe losses of stock having occurred in this way.
It is to overcome the danger to stock that I have devised the invention forming the subject-matter of this application; and to this end the invention consists in the particular construction and arrangement of parts, all as hereinafter fully described, and. pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar figures and letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure l is a side view of a section of a fence, representing the same as it appears when provided with my improved lightningarrester. Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view of a portion of the arr-ester, the two clamping-sections being represented as they appear when separated. Fig. I} is across-sectional view on line .r :1: of Fig. (3. Fig. l is an inverted plan view of the upper clamp-section. Fig. 5 is a plan view of the lower clamp-section, representing the same as it appears when being applied to the fence-wire. Fig. 6 is a side view of the clamp. Fig. 7 is an end view of the same, and Fig. 7 is a central sectional view of the lower portion. of one clamp and the upper portion of another clamp.
in the drawings 1 have illustrated a specific construction for establishing the necessary connection between the main conductor of my arr-ester and the line-wires of the fence;
equivalent or proper connection could be employed without departing from the spirit of my invention.
In the construction shown, 10 represents the lower portion of a clamping-socket, which said socket is formed with a central longitudinal groove, 11, upon either side of which there are ribs 12 and 12, the rib 12 running from one end of the clamping-socket to about the middle thereof upon one side of the groove, while the rib 12 runs from the other end to about the center of the socket, but upon the opposite side of the groove.
In connection with the soeketsection 10, I employ an upper socket-section, 13, that is formed with a central groove, ll, upon either side of which there are ribs 15 and 15*, so disposed that when the two socket-sections are placed together the said ribs 15 and 15 will supplement and complete the ribs 12 and 12, respectively. Outside of the ribs 15 and 15 the section 1 3 is formed with flanges 16, which said flanges rest upon shoulders 17 of the socket-section 10 when the two socket-sections are adjusted to the position in which they are shown in Figs. 6 and 7, the two sections being united by screws 2, as shown. The socketsections 10 and 13 are formed with cent-rallyapertured and internally-threaded bosses .18 and 19, the thread of one boss being a righthand thread and the thread of the other a left-han d thread.
The sockets employed in connect-ion with the several wires of the fence are connected by rods 20, said rods being threaded at each end, but in inverse directions, to engage the threaded apertures of the bosses l8 and 19, a binding -wire, 21, being bound within the threads of the connectingrods 20 and about the fence-wire, which wire is shown at A, and at the same time the wire 21 is so bound about the wire A that the sockets maybe moved to the position shown in Fig. o that is, so as to cross the wire diagonally-the arrangement of the ribs 12 and l2 permitting this movement. After the wire 21 has been applied, the two socketsections are brought together and united by the screws 2, the wire 21 bein forced hard against the wire A by a set-screw, 22, and against the rods 20 by set-screws 2 .3. The lower section oi the rod 21) is grounded,
1. In a lightning-conductor for wire fences,
the combination of a sectional conductor and clampin -sockets formed of two sections, each section being provided with a longitudinal groove and an aperture at right angles to the groove, substantially as described.
2. In a lightning-conductor, the combination of the sectional conductor, sectional sockets in which the ends of the sectional conductor are secured, and a connecting or binding wire for connecting the ends of the sectional conductor with the strands of a wire fence, substantially as described.
3. A sectional socket consisting of a socketsection, 10, formed With a central groove and ribs 12 and'12, and a socketsection, 13, formed with ribs 15 and 15, and a means, substantially as described, for connecting the sockets, as and for the purpose stated.
4. In a lightning-conductor, the combination, With rods 20, of socket- sections 10 and 13, screws 2, a binding-Wire, 21, and set-screws, as 22 and 23, substantially as described.
