UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM R. BOWMAN, or sLoAN, PENNSYLVANIA.
WIRE FABRIC.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 659,126, dated October 2, 1900.
Application filed April 7, 1900. Serial Nol1,9Z 2. (No specimens.)
To all whmn it may concern:
Beit known that I,WILL1AM R. BOWMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sloan, in the county of-Westmoreland and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Wire Fabric,of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in wire fabric, and is especially adapted for use for flexible fences, 85c. Its primary object is to provide a fabric composed of a series of similar panels or sectionsso constructed as to be easily connected, thereby forming a fabric which may be made of any desired length.
A second objectis to provide a device of this character each section of which is provided with a stay which is adapted to support its own weight, and thereby reduce the strain upon the end posts of the fence, also preventing bulging or bagging of the selvage.
Another object of the invention is to pro vide a fabric which is simple and durable in construction and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists in the details of construction and novel arrangement and combination of parts hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed.
ings, forming a part of this specification,
wherein like characters denote corresponding .parts in the several views, and in which Figure 1 is an elevation of a portion of the fabric embodying my invention. perspective view of one of the panels or sections, and Fig. 3 is a detail view of a modified form of hook for the panels.
Referring to said figures by numerals of reference, 1 is a stayof suitable material, as heavy wire, having a hook at its upper end for engagement with a selvage 2, which is'of any desired length, and provided at its ends with hooks 3, adapted to engage with corresponding hooks formed upon the selvages of the adjacent panels.
At a point adjacent to the bot-tom of the the selvages.
Fig. 2 is a stay 1 isa support 4, comprisingahook formed by bending the stay upward, as shown, and then turning the same abruptly downward, as at 5, the portion of the stay beneath this hook being adapted to projectinto the ground a sufficient distance to permit said hook or support to rest upon the surface of the ground.
Each panel or section is formed of suitable wires 6, twisted about the stay 1 at desired intervals andforming, preferably, triangular loops which extend in opposite directions, the outer apex of each loop being preferably. in alinement with the corresponding hooks 3 of The loops of one side of the panels are each contracted at the apices 7 and bent into a hook 8, which is adapted to engage a corresponding loop on the adjacent panel. A
A selvage similarto the selvage 2, hereinbefore described, is secured within the support 4, and its hooks are adapted to engage the corresponding hooks of the adjacent selvages. I preferably securely fasten these books together by placing the same as shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
In Fig. 3 I have shown a modified form of hook whereby the panels may be securely fastened together. Said hook is T-shaped, as shown, the ends 9 of which are adapted to be bent over the wires of the loop, and thereby prevent the expanding of the book, as is obvious.
In the foregoing description I have shown the preferred form of my invention; but I do not limit myself thereto, as I am aware that modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit or sacrificing the advantages thereof.
Having thus fully described my invent-ion, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A panel comprising a stay, a hook between its ends, a rod secured therein, a hook at one end, a rod engaged thereby, wire loops secured to said stay, and hooks formed on said loops.
2. A wire fabric comprising similar panels each formed of a stay, having rods secured thereto, looped wires secured to the stays and hooks formed on said loops and rods, the hooks at the end of each loop and oppositeiy-extendupon the loops and rods of one panel engaging arms to said hook. 1o ing the corresponding loops of the adjacent In testimony whereof I affix my signature panels. in presence of two Witnesses.
3. Apanelcomprisingastay,ahookformed WILLIAM R. BOWMAN. between its ends, a rod secured therein, a hook Witnesses: at the end of the stay, a rod secured therein, G. W. MARTIN,
looped wire secured to the stay, a hook formed WILLIAM '1. RHEA.
