FENCE-POST.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 7945739, dated July 18, 1905.
Application filed April 21, 1905. Serial No. 256,701.
To all, w/tont 61/; may concern.-
Be it known that we, CHARLES W. PIEEoE and JAMEs A. WILLIAMSON. citizens of the United States, residing at Union City, in the county of Randolph and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fence-Posts, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to improvements in fence-posts, and refers particularly to a fencepost made of cement, concrete, or other suitable material capable of being molded into the proper form or shape.
The object of our invention is the provision of a fence-post of the character stated which will present a neat and attractive appearance, which will have means for receiving and securing the fence-wires in a proper manner,
which can be produced at a comparatively small expense, all things considered, and which will be very durable and have a long life.
To attain the desired objects, our invention consists of a fence-post embodying novel features of construction and combination of parts substantially as disclosed herein.
Figure 1 represents a vertical longitudinal sectional view of our fence post with the metal stay-post and wire-fastening arms embedded therein. Fig. 2 represents a transverse sectional view of the post with the metal stay-post shown in front elevation. Fig. 3 represents a perspective View of the metal post detached. Fig. 4 represents a vertical or front elevation of our post, showing the vertical channel in the front thereof to receive a strip to which the fence-wires may be connected. Fig. 5 represents a detail perspective View of one of the arms which receive the fence-wire.
Our fence-post comprises the main or body portion A, which is formed in a suitable mold and of cylindrical tapered construction, with the vertical groove or channel B therein, and embedded in the post is the metal or wood stay-post, which consists of the pair of vertical strips C, having the lower inclined or outward-flaring ends D, between the lower portions of which fit the rock or wedge E, which is formed with the broad portion F, which rests on the material of the post and forms an additional support for the metal post. Between the pair of strips are secured by suitable fastenings G or in any other desirable manner the series of arms H, which are provided with kerfs or seats J to receive the fence-wires, and these arms, it will be noted, project into the vertical channel of the post and serve to securely bind and retain the fence-wires in the proper position. The arms may be provided with suitable catches or clips K for securing the wires in the seat, and, if desired, a strip of wood to which the fencewires may be secured can be placed in the vertical channel of the post.
It is evident that we provide a fence-post which can be manufactured at a comparatively small price, which possesses merit in point of efficiency and durability, and which will last practically a lifetime.
If desired, the fence-wires may be connected directly to the series of arms, or a vertical wood strip L may be fitted in the vertical groove or channel and secured to the arms by means of fastenings M and the wires secured directly to said vertical wood strip L.
We claim- 1. The fence-post of cylindrical tapered form having the vertical strips embedded therein, said strips having the lower flaring ends and a wedge arranged between said flaring ends, and the horizontal arms secured between said vertical strips having their ends extending outward and adapted to receive means for securing the fence-wires.
3. The fence-post herein described, consist- In testimony whereof we afiix our signatures ing of the post provided with a vertical chanin presence of two witnesses. nel, a stay-post embedded in said post,.a series s i of arms connected to said stay-post and =pr0- 5 jecting into the channel of the post, and a ver- I tical strip fitting in the vertical channel of the Witnesses: post and secured to the series of arms, said J. A. SHOOKNEY, wood strip serving to receive the fence-wires. V GEO. WELLS SMITH.
