SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 707,457, dated August 19, 1902.
Application filed Inne l, 1901. Serial No. 62,716. (No model.)
T0 (/,ZZ whom i vita/y concern:
Be it known that. I, MADISON D. SHIPMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing atDekalb, in the county of Dekalb and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Wire Fences; and I do' declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appe rtains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to wirerfences, and more especially to the manner of uniting the vertical stay-wires with the longitudinal cables or line-wires.
The objects of -my invention are to provide a strong, durable,simple, and efficient fence in which the vertical stay-wires are connected to the line-wires by a simple but permanent tie or knot formed in the wire without requiring a free end to either wire.
Another object is to provide a wire-fence fabric composed of longitudinal line-wires or cables and vertical stay-'wires which are offset between each alternate pair of line-wires and connected thereto by loops clamped tightly around said line-wires.
I attain these objects by means of the construction illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure lis a side elevation of a fence made in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a portion of a line-wire with a vertical stay-wire secured thereto by a loop formed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 5 is a rear elevation of the same. Fig. 4 is a sectional view of the line-wire and a side view of the clamping-loop. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the clamping-loop in the stay-wire unattached to the line-wire. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the stay-wire loop clamped to a twisted line-wire or cable. Fig. 7 is a sectional view of the twisted line-wire or cable and a side view of the loop in the stay-wire clamped about it. Fig. S is a perspective view.
Like numerals of reference designate like parts in the different views.
In said drawings the numeral 1 designates the line-wires or cables, 2 the vertical staywires, and 3 the fence-posts. The stay-Wires 2 are secured to the line-wires or cables at suitable intervals by loops 4, formed in the stay-wires. These loops are bent from the body of the wire without requiring a free end to the wire and are formed by doubling-the wire to create a crown 4 and two arms 5 6, lying side by side. The doubled portion of the loop is clamped around the line-wire to closely embrace it, and the vertical portion 7 above the loop is in a dieren t vertical plane from the vertical portion 8 below said loop, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3. The object of this feature is that a single piece of wire covers a greater longitudinal area and the strain is not in a direct line, giving slight resilience to the fence as a whole. It is also to be noticed that the loop 4 clamps the line-wires or cables by a double grip extending around one-half of each line-wire. This feature gives double strength at the point off greatest strain by the use of a single stay-wire. The vertical portions upon opposite sides ofthe loops 4 lie upon opposite sides of the line-wires or cables.
A wire fence made in accordance with my invention is strong and durable, requires comparatively little wire to i produce it, and owing to the manner of doubling the loop around the line-wires cannot be easily damaged and can be readily repaired without the use of special tools.
I claim- A wire fence consisting of line-wires and vertical stay-wires secured thereto by loops in the stay-wires, said loops being doubled and clamped tightly around the line-wires and forming double arm-clamps extending around one-half of the circumference of the line-wires, and the vertical portions'at opposite sides of the loops lying upon opposite sides of the line-wires and in parallel vertical planes.
In testimony whereof I aftix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
MADISON D. SHIPMAN.
