GATE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 593,060, dated November 2, 1897.
Application filed June 7, 1897. Serial No. 639,733. (No model.)
To aZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that we, MARION T. STAUFFER and J ACOB L. TOLSON, citizens of the United States, residing at Barry, in the county of Pike and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Gates, which improvement is fully setforth in the following specification and accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a side elevation of our improved gate for wire fences; Fig. 2, a top or plan view of the same, partly in section; and Fig. 8, a central vertical section of the latch and tension mechanism.
Our invention pertains to certain improvements in gates for wire fences; and our obj eot is to supplement and improve the device dedated August 25, 1896. The prominent and essential features ofthe original invention being fully set forth in said patent we shall herein confine our claim to sundry improvements, which comprise novel and effective means for increasing the stability of the gate, for regulating the tension of the wires thereof, and other details, as will be hereinafter set forth.
The peculiar features and special advantages of the device will be apparent by reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- A indicates the wires of a section of fence, extending between the posts 2 and 3. In the construction of our gate these wires are severed near the post 2 and their free ends are securely fastened in the front stile 4, which is composed of twin bars, between which the wires are clamped by screw-bolts 5. If desired, the stile may be made of a solid bar and have the wires fastened thereto in any suitable manner. A swinging crane 6 is hinged to the post 3. In order to lengthen or shorten the gate when desired, the horizontal arm of the crane has an extension 7, which is readily adjustable by screws and thumb-nuts 8. The outer extremity of the extension is provided with a slot 9 to admit a bolt which upholds the stile 4, the lower end of which is normally secured in a bifurcated block 10. The tension of the wires is controlled by a pawl and ratchet 11, inclosed between twin plates 12, which are suitably attached to the stile by a screw-bolt 13. The free ends of a looped chain or flexible cord 14 are attached to the shaft of the ratchet. It will be observed that when the loop is placed in the hook 15, which is attached to the post 2, and a wrench or key applied to the projecting squared end 16 of the ratchet the wires may be easily drawn taut and the gate securely fastened. When thus arranged, it is evident that the device will serve all the purposes of a permanent gate.
In order to open the gate, it is only necessary to release the pawl and slacken the wires sufficiently to allow the loop or latch to be drawn out of the hook. The gate being light the stile may then be easily lifted out of the bifurcated block.
hat we claim as new is- In a gate for wire fences, the combination with a section of severed wires A, of the herein-described swinging crane provided with an adjustable extension, the depending front stile of the gate laterally adjustable in a slot in the outer extremity of said extension, the pawl and ratchet attached to the said front stile and adapted to regulate the tension of the wires A and the looped latch 14, all constructed and arranged substantially as and for the purposes herein specified.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing we have hereunto set our hands, this 18th day of May, 1897, in the presence of witnesses.
