SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 747,361, dated December 22, 1903.
Application filed July 25, 1902. Serial No. 116,981. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DANIEL BIOE, a citizen of the United States, residing atSpencerville, in the county of Allen and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Fence-Post, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in fence-posts.
The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of fence-posts and to provide a simple and comparatively inexpensive one of great strength and durability adapted to be readily constructed of wroughtiron or other suitable material and capable of enabling a. fence to be rapidly erected.
The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claim hereto appended.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a fence provided with posts constructedin accordance with thisinvention. Fig. 2 is a detail view illustrating the manner of attaching the upper ends of the inclined braces to the corner-posts. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the corner-post. Fig. 4 is a detail sectional view illustrating the manner of securing the lower end of the upright portion of the post to the horizontal arm of the inclined inner or rear portion.
Like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawlngs.
1 designates a fence-post composed of an upright front portion 2 and an inclined rear portion 3, forming a transverse brace and provided at its bottom with a horizontal arm 4, forming the base of the post and designed to be embedded in the ground, as indicated in Fig. 1 of the drawings. The upright portion 2, which may be constructed of any suitable material, preferably consists of a piece of wrought-iron, and its lower end 5 is reduced and secured in a slot 6 of the arm-4, preferably by upsetting the reduced portion against the lower face of the arm to form a head. The inclined portion 3, which is arranged at the back of the post, is formed integral with the horizontal base, both parts being constructed of a single piece of wroughtiron or other suitable material. The upper and lower portions of the inclined back or brace of the post are provided with quarterbends 7 and 8, and the intermediate portion of the brace 3 is arranged edgewise to the front portion, as shown. The upper end 9 of the inclined rear portion of the post is secured to the front portion by means of a. bolt 10 or other suitable fastening device, and a brace 11 may have its upper end interposed between the upright front portion. of the post and the inclined rear portion or brace oi the same. The brace 11 extends longitudinally of the fence, and its upper end is perforated to receive the said bolt 10. The lower end of the brace 11 is arranged upon an anchor or support l3,consisting of a block or stone and designed to be arranged with its'upper face at the surface of the ground. The lower portion of the inclined longitudinal brace is connected with the upright portion of the post by means of a wire 14 or other suitable connection. One end of the wire 14 passes through a perforation 15 of the lower portion of the inclined brace 11, and the other end of the wire extends through a similar perforation of the upright portion of the post. The wire 14 may be secured to the post and the brace in any desired manner.
The inclined braces 11 may be arranged at intervals along the fence, and they may be omitted when not required.
The corner-post is supported by a pair of longitudinal braces 11, having their upper ends interposed between the inclined rear portion of thepost and the upright front portion of the same and connected at their lower ends with the upright portion of the post by connectingwires 14 and are supported on blocks, as clearly shown in Fig. 1.
Horizontal fence-wires or runners lb'are preferably secured to the post by means of structed of wrought-iron, bar metal, or other brace, the pivotal axle of the side brace servsuitable material. ing also as a means for attaching the rear What I claim is brace to the upright.
A fence-post comprising an inclined rear In testimony that I claim the foregoing as 5 brace provided with a forwardly-extending my own I have hereto affixed my signature in 15 base portion, an upright portion connected at the presence of two Witnesses.
its lower end to the base and at its upper end DANIEL BIOE. to the rear brace, and an inclined side brace Witnesses: pivot-ally attached at its upper end to the up R. R. KENNEDY,
