FENCE.
STECIFIGATiON forming part of Letters Patent No. 631,670, dated August 22, 1-899. Application filed Eeptemhcr 29, 1El98. Serial No. 692,204. (No model.)
T 0 aZZ whom it mayconcern:
Be it known that we, ANTHONY REISINGER and VINsoN L. CAPLE, citizens of the United States, residing at Naples, inthe county of Ontario and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Fence, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in fences.
The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of fences, more especially the application of fence-stays to the same, and to provide a simple, strong, and durable fence adapted to be easily erected and capable of yielding to the contraction and expansion of the horizontal fence-wires without affecting the fastening devices for secur ing them to the fence-posts.
The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts, as hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a fence constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view of a portion of one of the stays and the adjacent horizontal wires, illustrating the arrangement of the parts after the fence has been completed. Fig. 3 is a detail view similar to Fig. 2, illustrating the arrangement of the stay before crimping the horizontal wires.
Like numerals of reference designate corre sponding parts in all the figures of the draw ings.
1 designates a series of horizontal fencewires, arranged intermediate of the top and bottom of the fence and being preferably of less diameter than the top and bottom wires 2 and 3; but they may be constructed otherwise, if desired. The fence-wires are supported at intervals by stays 4, each constructed of a single piece of wire doubled to form a loop 5, which receives the top wire and which permits the same to be depressed or moved downward in it should stock lean upon the top of the fence. The sides of the stay are twisted or coiled around the intermediate fence-wires l at 6, and the said intermediate fence-wires are provided at their points of connection with the stay with upward crimps or bends 7, receiving the coiled or twisted portions 6.
The intermediate portions 8 of the sides of the stay lying between the horizontal fencewires are X shaped or crossed above the bends or crimps, and the latter, which in the construction of the fence take up the slack, form resilient portions which are adapted to yield to and compensate for the contraction and ex pansion of the fence wires to prevent the same from becoming too loose or tightening to the extent of breaking or affecting the means for attaching them to the fence-posts. The lower ends of the sides of the stay are coiled around the bottom fence-wire 3, as shown at 9, and
the coils are located at opposite sides of the lower end of the stay.
In constructing the fence the horizontal fence-wires are first attached to the fencepost and the stays are applied to the same, as shown in Fig. 3. The intermediate fencewires are then crimped by means of a jack or other tool adapted to bear against the top and bottom wires and capable of forcing the former upward sufiiciently to crimp the said intermediate fence-wires simultaneously.
The invention has the following advantages: The fence, which is simple, inexpensive, strong, and durable, is easily constructed, and the crimps or bendsof the longitudinal or horizontal fence-wires form resilient or spring portions which are adapted to compensate for the contraction and expansion of the wires. The top of the fence is provided with loops which enable the top fence-wires to be depressed by stock without afiecting the adjacent wires, and after the top wire is relieved of such pressure it will swing back to its normal position.
Ohangesin the form, proportion, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
What is claimed is- 1. In a fence, the combination with a series of horizontal fence-wires, of a stay composed of two sides connected with the top and bottom wires, twisted around the intermediate wires and crossed between the same, and forming a series of short crimps or bends in the fence-wires toprovide resilient orspring portions to compensate for the contraction and expansion of the wires, substantially as described.
2. In a fence, the combination with horizontal fence-wires, of a vertical stay composed of two sides twisted from each other around the fence-wires and crossed between the same, and forming a series of crilnps or bends in the fence-wires, substantially as and for the purpose described.
3. In a fence, the combination with horizontal fence-wires, of a stay constructed of wire and comprising" a vertical loop 5, receiving the top wire, the X-shaped or crossed por-
