UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOI- IN II. SEARS, OF SPRINGPORT, INDIANA.
FENCE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 593,862, dated November 1.6, `189'?.
Application tied March 13,1897.
' To LZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN H. SEARS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Springport, inthe county of Henry and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fences; and I do hereby d eclare the following to be a full, clear, and exs act description of the invention, such as will form panels.
The object of this invention is to produce a cheap and durable form of fence in such a manner as to simulate an ordinary fence, but with the additional and superior advantages arising from the construction of a wire fence over the ordinary board panel-fence.
In the drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of a section of fence embodying the improvement. Fig. 2 is an enlarged elevation of a part of the fence, showingthe construction of the several parts. Fig. 3 is a transverse vertical section taken through a portion .of the fence.
Referring'to the drawings, in which like numerals of reference are employed to indicate corresponding parts in the several views, the lnumeral 1 represents posts which are placed at regular intervals to form the panels, and extending from one post to theother in succession are a series of Wire runners 2, arranged close together at the base and gradually spreading farther apart toward the top of the fence-section. On the wires and arranged at an angle are a series of pickets 3, which are crossed about their central portions and secured at the points of crossing, as at 4, and also at the top wire of the fence. These pickets provide lan exceptionally rigid brace for the fence and may beplaced against opposite sides or only upon one side, as may be found Serial No. 627,268. (No model.)
desirable-but as shown in the preferred form are arranged on opposite sides of the panel in pairs in continuity, so that the lowermost angle of one pair on one side will be opposite the highest angle of the pair on the opposite side, thereby presenting a very pleasing appearance and at the same time thoroughly reinforcing the fence-panel and the fence as an entirety against any shock or jar. Along the side of the pickets are a series of staples 5, through which the wires 2 pass and are thereby supported strongly against elevation or depression, and thereby form a very firm resistance at the lower portion of the fence against the eorts of small animals to pass between the wires or under the lowernost wire.
This fence will be found especially appli- -cable to be applied around inclosures containing hogs and other small animals. It Will be understood, further, that many minor changes in the construction and arrangement of the several parts may be made and substituted for those shown and described without in the least departing from the nature or spirit of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, what is claimed as new is In a fence, the combination of-posts, wire runners extending over the posts, pickets applied to the wire runners and arranged on` opposite sides of the same in pairs in continuity so that the lowermost angle on one side will be opposite the highest angle of the pair on the opposite side, and a series of staples extending throughout the length of the pickets through which the said wires pass, thereby holding the latter firmly against elevation or depression, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
