SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 761,721, dated June 7, 1904.
I Application iiledDecember 21, 1903. Serial No. 186,105. (Ilo model.)
T0 all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM B. STANLEY,
.a citizen of the United States, residing at Titsimplify and improve the construction andv produce a device of this character which'may be adapted to any form or size of post of combustible material which requires protection from iire.
The device may be employed upon posts of various kinds erected adjacent to railway-lines which are liable to beaiected by burning grass` or other growth which has been ignited from locomotive-sparks or from other causes and may also be employed to advantage for the protection of farm-fence posts in localities liable to be aiiected by prairie-ires and the like.
For the purpose of illustration the device is shown in Figure 1 applied to an ordinary'tele-` graph or telephone pole, and in Fig. 2 applied to an ordinary fence-post. Fig. 3 represents the two parts comprising the improved device partially united to illustrate the manner of in- Fig. l represtalling them upon the post. sents an end elevation of the improved device with the post in transverse section. Fig. 5 is an enlarged sectional detail illustrating the manner of forming and attaching the fencewire clips. Fig. 6 is a view similar to Fig. 4., showing the device formed of cement,
burned clay, or similar material or com` pounds. The improved device comprises two particylindrical members 10 11, each greater than one-half of a complete cylinder and adapted vto be united around the post 12 by sliding one member longitudinally upon the other, with the edges of the members interlapping, as
v shown in Figs. 4f and 6. When thus assembled,
The material employed for the parts 10 11 may be of any suitable non-combustible substance or composition, such as sheet. metal, clay, burned or dried,concrete or other cement compounds, and the like.
In Fig. 4 the parts are represented as constructed ofsheet metal, while in Fig. 6 a pair of the members are shown as formed of cement or similar compounds. By this simple arrangement it will be evident that a very effective protection for the post is provided which may be cheaply constructed, quickly applied, and may be adapted to all sizes of posts and to posts employed for any purpose.
It is obvious that the protecting members must be made of ample size to include between them the post which is to be protected, and it is equally obvious that the larger ofthe two members must necessarily be of an interior diameter exceeding the exterior diameter oi' the post. An intermediate opening or airspace is thus formed between the protecting members and the post which efciently aids in attaining the objects of the invention.
rlhe lower ends of the members 10 11 may be embedded for a distance in the ground (represented at 13) as a `further protection to the posts. i I
- When employed as a protector for fenceposts, one oi' the casingmembers will be provided with a plurality'of clips 14, spaced apart for supporting the lower strand-wires 15 of the fence, the upper strand-wires 16 being supported in the usual manner upon the post above the protector, as shown.
The manner of connecting the strand-wirev invention, what one-haiil and one of said members being of an exterior diameter equal to the interior diameter of the other member.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as `my own I have hereto aiiixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses. v.
