LOCK-PLATE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters PatentNo. 662,847, dated November 2'7, 1900. Application filed arch 22, 1900. Serial No. 9,719. (No model.)
To do whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALPHEUS H. \VOOD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Amarillo, in the county of Potter and State of Texas, have invented new and usefullmprove ments in Fence-Stay Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in lock-plates for the stays of wire fences; and it consists in a certain peculiar construction the novelty, utility, and advantages of which will be fully understood from the following description and claims when taken in conjunction with the annexed drawings, in which Figure l is a detail elevation illustrating one of my improved lock-plates as applied to an intersecting runner and stay of a wire fence. Figs. 2 and 3 are sections taken in the planes indicated by the broken lines 2 2 and 3 3, respectively, of Fig. 1. Fig. 4.- is a perspective view of the lock-plate. Fig. 4t is a horizontal section of the same. Fig. 5 is a plan View of the piece of sheet metal of which the lock-plate is formed.
A is a runner of a Wire fence, B a Wire stay disposed at an angle to and intersecting the runner, and O my improved lock-plate. The said lock-plate is formed by bending a rectangular and apertured piece of sheet metal, such as shown in Fig. 5, into the shape shown in Fig. 4 and comprises a flat body or main portion athat is, a portion all of which lies in the same planea horizontal channel b, disposed at one side of the plane of the main portion a and intersecting the central aperture c, and a vertical channel 61, disposed at the opposite side of the plane of the main portion with reference to channel I) and also intersecting the central aperture 0, the said channels b at being of concavo-convex form in cross-section for a purpose presently pointed out.
In practice the lock-plate is applied in the manner shown in Figs. 1 to 3that is to say, the fence-runner is arranged in the channel I) of the plate and at one side of the fiat main portion a, thereof, and the stay is arranged in the channel d and at the opposite side of the main portion. The runner and stay are also made to intersect each other in the aperture of the plate, after which the portions of metalforming the two channels are flattened against the runner and stay, as indicated by e and f. The flattening of the metal forming the channels against the runner and stay may be effected by hammering or pressure and is highly ad vantageous,since it serves to equally spring-bend the portions of the runner and stay in the aperture 0 of the lock-plate, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, with the result that the runner and stay are securely fixed with respect to each other and the lock-plate is effectually held against casual movement with respect to both.
It will be seen that the runner and stay are equally springbent, and hence are in no wise weakened by pressing or hammering of the channel portions of the plate. It will also be appreciated that the flat portion a. of the plate, all of which lies in the same plane, lends material rigidity and strength to the plate.
Having described my invention, what I claim is 1. In a fence-stay fastener, the combination of a wire-fence runner, a stay intersecting the same, and the sheet-metal lock-plate having the flat main portion a, all of which lies in the same plane, provided with a central aperture 0 receiving the intersecting portions of the runner and stay, and also having the straight channels I), d, of concavoconvex form in cross-section, disposed at opposite sides of the main portion a, and in line with the horizontal and vertical axes thereof and receiving the runner-wire and the stay, respectively 3 the portions of the plate forming the channels being flattened against the runner-Wire and stay whereby the portions of the wire and stay in the aperture 0 of the plate are spring-bent, as and for the purpose set forth.
2. As an improved article of manufacture, the herein-described sheet-metal lock-plate having the flat main portion a, all of which lies in the same plane, provided with a central aperture 0, and also having the straight channels I), d, of concavo-convex form in In testimony whereof I have hereunto set cross-section, arranged at opposite sides of my hand in presence of two subscribing Witthe main portion a and in line with the horinesses.
zontal and vertical axes, respectively, there- ALPHEUS H. WOOD. 5 of; the said channels intersecting the aper- Witnesses:
ture a, substantially as and for the purpose RAY WHEATLEY,
set forth. W. G. WITHEY.
