SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 777.622, dated December 13, 1904.
Appli ati n fil d June 6, 1903. Serial No. 160,366. (No model.)
To a, whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that we, ARTHUR BRAZILLA FROST, manufacturer, of the city of Oleveland, in the county of Ouyahoga, State of Ohio, and HARRY LOUIS Fnos'r, manufacturer, and ALEXANDER ROBERTSON, machinist, of the town of Welland, in the county of Welland, in the Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Barbed Wire for Fences, of which the following is the specification.
Our invention relates to improvements in barbed wire for fences; and the object of the invention is to devise a barb and means for holding it from longitudinal displacement on the strand which will not be liable to injure animals by contact therewith; and it consists, essentially, of a double barb made of two pieces of wire interlocked and formed with a central hole, so that they will readily turn on the supporting-wire, such wire being swaged on each side of the barb, so as to prevent the longitudinal displacement, as hereinafter explained.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of portion of a strand of a fence, showing our improved barb and means for holding the same in place. Fig. 2 is a cross-section. Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail of the barb from the one end. Fig. 4: is an enlarged detail from the opposite end. Fig. 5 is a view from the opposite side to that shown in Fig. 1.
1n the drawings like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure.
A is the main strand of wire, which is provided with projections a, swaged or otherwise pressed out of the bottom of the barb, as indicated.
B B is the double barb. The portion B is provided with a barb at each end and passes intermediate of its length circularly, so as to form a central hole, being separated intermediate of its length, so as to pass to a position diametrically opposite Where the opposite point ends. The coil thus formed is separated intermediate of its length laterally. into the space so formed extends the portion B, which is provided with a barb at each end, such portion B passing around the wire and to the outside of the circular part of the main portion B when it is twisted around the portion N atb and passes then outwardly crosswise to the barbed end 7/, the pointed end of the portion B being substantially at right angles to the barb of the portion B, which it straddles. It will thus be seen that the two wires or portions B and B, forming the double or really fourminted barb, are interlocked and form a central opening B through which the wire extends.
The barbs may be formed separately from the main wire A and placed thereupon and the projections to afterward formed, or the barbs may be formed upon the main wire A, as may be desired and found most convenient.
The main object of our invention is to produce a barb which when an animal comes up against it will recede or revolve on the main wire. The barb will prick the animal; but instead of having a tendency to tear the animal in its endeavors to get away it will partially rotate or give and free itself from the hide of the animal, and thereby not be liable to inflict a severe flesh wound.
In every case the barbs will have a tendency to recede from the animal, altl'iough they will punish him sufiiciently to make him keep away from it.
\Ve preferably use our barb on a coiled-wire strand, the pitch of which is of course very great.
hat we claim as our invention isv 1. In a barbed wire, the combination with the main wire, of the portions B and B, the portion B passing around the wire in a coil and having the points oppositely set and the coil slightly separated, and the portion B iitting into the separation between the coil and passing around the wire and twisted around one pointed end, the points of portion B being substantially at right angles to the points of the portion B as and. for the purpose specified.
2. A double barb comprising the portions B and B, the portion B being formed with a coil intermediate of its length slightly sepa rated, and the portion B being formed with a coil intermediate of its length partially inserted in the separation of the aforesaid coil,
volutions and twisted around one end of the portion B, the points of both portions being arranged at different angles, as and forthe purpose specified.
