JOHN H. BROWER, OF WVAUPUN, WISCONSIN, ASSIGNOR OF TNVO-THIRDS T RICHARD S. SARGENT AND FRED W. MOUL, OF SAME PLACE.
WlRE-FENCE STAY.
$PEGIFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 505,810, dated October 3, 1893.
Applicationflled March 31, 1893. Serial No. 468,439. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern/.-
Beit known that I, JOHN H. BROWER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Waupun, in the countyof Dodge and State of Wisconsin, have invented a new and useful Wire- Fence Stay, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to adjustable locks or clamps for transverse stay-rods attached [0 to the wires of fences, and the object thereof is to improve the construction in Patent No. 475,717, granted to me May 24, 1892.
With this and other objects in View, the invention consists in the construction and arrangement of the parts thereof as will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
In the drawings: Figure 1 is an elevation of a part of a panel of a wire fence, showing a transverse stay-rod thereon with the improved lock or clamp in connection therewith. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the improved clamp on an enlarged scale showing a part of a stayrod and Wire runner in connection therewith. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the parts of the lock or clamp detached from each other. Fig. 4C is a view similar to Fig. 3, showing the use of a flat link and a round key to illustrate a slight modification. Fig. 5 is a sectional view on the line x-m of Fig. 2.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, the numeral 1 designates a looking or clamping plate that 3 5 is provided with outwardly-extending shallow flanges or lugs 2, that are centrally notched, as at 3, to such a depth, width, and shape as to freely receive and hold a stay-rod 4. This construction leaves the opposite sides of the looking or clamping plate open, and extending centrally through the same is a slot 5, arranged in a longitudinal direction, and intermediate of the flanges or lugs 2.
Fitted over the stay-rod t at intervals are links 6, which maybe either flat or round, as shown, and having one end contracted, as at 7, to pass through the slot 5and form an eye or opening to receive a flat or round key 8, that is wedged against the back of the plate 50 1, to thereby hold the stay-rod firmly in the notches 3 and secure the clamp or lock in stable position against accidental movement.
It will be seen that the contracted part 7, of the link provides an enlarged head at the opposite end that prevents the said link from 5 5 being entirely pushed through the slot 5, and when the said link, after having received its key, is drawn home in proper position the stay-wire cannot possibly be accidentally disengaged from the notches 3. It will be seen that the link is arranged in horizontal position transversely of the plate 1, and between the upper and lower sides thereof and the adjacent flange, or lug 2, an opening is formed through which may be passed the runner 9, that is held in position against vertical movement by the flange 2, on one side, and the adjacent side of the link. Of course, the stay-rod holds the runner or strand firmly in position in the lock or clamp, and all the parts are thereby firmly united.
It will be observed that the key may be quickly inserted or withdrawn without loss oftime, and that it may be applied without requiring the use of any special form of implement, and therefore in applying it to a fence the building of the latter will be much more quickly accomplished.
In my patent heretofore referred to it is necessary to remove a nut from the. screwthreadedend of a hooked bolt that held the stay-rod in place, which consumed considerable time, but in the present instance it is only necessary to loosen the key and with draw the latter in order to take down the fence or to insert the key in building a fence.
It will be understood, of course, that the clamp or look will be used in connection with each runner or strand, and as many of such devices as are necessary will be used.
Changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new is- The combination with awire fence stay and strands or runners, of a clamping device consisting of a flanged plate having a slot ex- Ico tending through the same, a link removably fitted in said slot in a horizontal plane and extending transversely of said plate, and a key removably fitted in the rear projecting part of the said link to secure the latter in position, the said link embracing the stay-rod or stay and holding the same against the flanges of the plate, and the strand or runner passing between the said link and an adja-
