SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 747,156, dated December 15, 1903.
Application filed December 8, 1902. Serial No. 134,462. (No model.) 7
1'0 a, whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, LYMAN H. EVANS and BENJAMIN F. EBB, citizens of the United States, residing in Des Moines,countyofPolk, and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Fence-Posts, of which the following is a specification.
The object of our invention is to provide a fence-post of simple, strong,- durable, and inexpensive construction which will be capable of withstanding the elements and will be proof against fire.
Our invention consists of certain details of construction hereinafter set forth, pointed out in our claim, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in Which- Figure 1 shows a perspective View of our improved post. Fig. 2 shows a transverse section taken on the line 2 2. Fig. 3 shows a detail view of the wooden beam we use in our post, and Fig. 4: shows a detail view of the metal strip we employ.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, the reference-numeral 10 is used to indicate cement or concrete molded into the form of a good substantial fence-post, and the numerals 11, 12, 13, and 14 indicate wires or metal rods extending longitudinally through the post from the base to thetop.
The numeral 15 indicates a wooden beam embedded longitudinally in the forward face of the post, and the numerals 16, 17, and 18 indicate cross-pieces passing through the rear of the beam 15 at right angles to the side faces thereof.
The numeral 19 indicates a metal strip embedded longitudinally in the forward face of the post, and the numerals 20, 21, 22, and 23 indicate lugs cast on the side faces thereof. The numerals 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, and 29 indicate slots cut in the forward edge of said metal strip.
The numerals 30 and 31 indicate staples partly embedded or retainers arranged in pairs in the forward face of the post, one being on either side of the wooden beam 15 and the metal strip 19.
The wires 11, 12, 13, and 14., the wooden beam'15, the metal strip 19, and the hooks 30 and 31 are all embedded and placed in their respective positions in the cement or concrete while it is undergoing the process of manufacture. Hence it is obvious that they cannot be displaced, for after the cement or concrete hardens they will become firmly secured therein. The utility of the cross-pieces 16, 17, and 18 and the lugs 20, 21, 22, and 23 is also obvious, as they will afford additional strength in holding the wooden beam 15 and the metal strip 19 in position.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
A fence-post comprising a cement body having a primary wooden member extending longitudinally of and embedded in its outer face, a longitudinally-exteuding secondary member partially embedded in the post with one of its longitudinal edges projecting beyond the face of the post and provided with wire-receiving openings, and a series of wireengaging devices also partially embedded in the post and projecting beyond the face of -the same for engagement with fence-wires.
