POST.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 760,167, dated May 17, 1904.
Application filed August 12, 1903. Serial No. 169,254. (No model.)
To n/ZZ w/wm it may concern.-
Be it known that I, DANIEL WARNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bronson, in the county of Branch and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Post, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to posts adapted for fences and similar structures, telegraph and telephones poles, electric-conductor poles, and other purposes requiring supporting poles or posts, and has for its object to improve the construction of such devices without increasing the expense or Weight, while at the same time increasing the strength and durability.
The invention consists in certain novel features of construetion,as hereinafter shown and described, and specified in the claims.
In the drawings illustrative of the invention, in which corresponding parts are denoted by like designating characters, Figure 1 is'a perspective view of one of the improved posts. Fig. 2 is asectional detail illustrating the construction. Fig. 3 is a transverse section enlarged.
The improved post may be of any desired length and size and employed for any required purpose, as above noted, but for the purpose of illustration is shown adapted as a fencepost.
The improved post consists of a plurality of longitudinal rods 10, spaced apart and preferably arranged in a circle, as shown. The rods are connected at suitable intervals by stay-plates 11, preferably in the form of flat metal rings, and provided with spaced radial recesses 12, in which the rods 10 are supported, as shown. The metal of the plates where the recesses occur are preferably thicker than at other portions to increase the vertical surfaces of the walls of the recesses, as at 13, and having their side walls extended to form spaced lugs 13, and when the rods are in place they will be firmly secured by bending the lugs 13 inward over the rods, as shown at the left in Fig. 3, which represents an enlarged section with a number of the lugs clenched to the rods, while the remainder are shown in position prior to the clenching.
respectively, with longitudinally-extending flanges 18 19, as shown, to increase the area with which the earth and tamping engage, and thus increase the grip of the tamping and correspondingly increase the rigidity of the post without materially increasing the weight or expense of construction. By placing the relatively wide flange 18 at or near the surface of the ground (indicated at 20) the lateral strains are more efficiently resisted, as will be obvious. By this simple means a very strong, eflicient, and rigid post is produced, which may be constructed of any size or length and with any size of rod or plate.
The rods may be of any required size and as many employed as may be required, and the stay-plates may likewise be of any required size and placed at as close intervals as required.
The tamping will be inserted within the portion of the post beneath the ground to in crease the stability, and a concrete or other similar bedding may be employed, if required.
The members 11 will preferably be of some form of metal, such as malleable iron, which will permit the clenching of the portions 13'.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is- 1. A post comprising a plurality of spaced rods and spaced stay-plates having spaced recesses to receive the rods, the plate at the upper ends of the rods having an upwardly-ere tending flange and a cap fitting over said flanges.
2. A post composed of spaced rods connected at intervals by stay-plates having spaced recesses to receive the rods, the side Walls of said I the opposite sides of said recesses and adapted I0 recesses contiguous to the rods being clenched to be clenched around said rods. around the rods, ears extending radially from In testimony that I claim the foregoing as said plates, and a rod extending vertically my own I have hereto afi ixed my signature in through said ears, substantially as specified. the presence of two Witnesses.
3. A post composed of spaced rods connected DANIEL WARNER.
at intervals by bands having spaced thickened Witnesses: portions provided With open slots or recesses HENRY WAIT, to receive the rods, and lugs extending from F. M. RUDD.
