CHARLES L. PAGKER, OF WILTON JUNCTION, IOWA.
WIRE-HOLDER.
SPEGIFIGATION forming" part of Letters Patent No. 729,212, dated May 26, 1903. Application filed January 12,1963. Serial No. 133,718. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES L. PACKER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Wilton Junction, in the county of Muscatine and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Wire-Holder, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain improvements in wire clamps or holders, and has for its principal object to provide an improved form of clamp for firmly holding a barbed or plain wire and adapted to be connected to a wire-stretching tool, the clamp or holder being so arranged and disposed as to engage the wire without kinking or bending the latter to such an extent as to impair its strength.
A further object of the invention is to provide a clamp or holder which may be readily disengaged without unbending or twisting the wire.
With these and other objects in view the inven tion consists in the novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings,and particularly pointed out in the appended claim, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportions, size, and minor details of the structure may be made without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View of a wire-holder constructed in accordance with the invention. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional elevation of the same.
The wire-holder is formed of iron or other suitable material, and comprises a substantially rectangular body portion 1, provided at one end with a hook member or eye 2, which may be readily attached to any of the ordinary forms of wire-stretching devices, a portion of one of these being shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1.
Projecting from one face of the body or base 1 are pins numbered 3, 4, and 5, the pins being of cylindrical form and of uniform diameter from end to end. The intermediate pin 3 is arranged in a plane above and between the two pins 4 and 5.
In practice the barbed or plain wire a: is passed under pin 5, thence up and over the pin 3, down and under pin 4, passing straight out. The only kink or bend which would tend to impair the strength of the wire is that formed by the bending of the wire up over pin 3, and the wire readily straightens out, and the wire-holder may be disengaged and secured in the wire at another point farther along in the line. As the pins are cylindrical in form and not headed, they may be readily removed from the wire without stopping to unbend the latter, as is usually necessary in tools of this nature where the holding-pins are provided with heads.
I am aware that tools of this class have heretofore been made in which the holdingpins were arranged in a single row and provided with heads in order to hold the wire in position; but in these devices it required more than a simple bend to secure the wire in place, while with a device constructed in accordance with my invention either a barbed or plain wire may be firmly held, owing to the position of the pins whereby the wire passes straight out under pins 4 and 5, as shown in the drawings. a
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is- The combination in a wire-holder, of the broadened base portion 1 having at one end a hook member 2, cylindrical pins 3, 4 and 5 all of uniform diameter from end to end, said pins being widely spaced, the lower pins 4 and 5 being in a common horizontal plane below that of the upper pin 3 and arranged one on each side of the vertical plane of said upper pin, and the hook member having its engaging bill in a horizontal plane about midway between the similar planes in which the pins are situated.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
CHARLES L. PACKER.
