WOVEN-WIRE FENCE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 21, 1906.
Application filed June 26, 1906. Serial No. 323,497.
the county of New York and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Woven-Wire Fence, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to woven-wire fences.
The object of the invention is to provide a strong, simple, durable, and inexpensive woven-wire fence which is provided with a novel and efficient form of hinged joint for connecting the brace-wires with the linewires.
With the foregoing and other objects in View, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of invention herein disclosed can be made Within the scope of the following claim without departing from the spirit of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages.
In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a side elevation of a fence constructed in accordance with the present invention. Fig. 2 is an enlarged side elevation. Fig. 3 is a transverse section through a portion of the fence.
Like reference-numerals indicate corres onding parts in the different figures of the c rawings. j
The reference-numeral 1 indicates a fencepost, which may be of any suitable form and construction adapted to support the linewires 2, which preferably are arranged in parallel order and are disposed closer to each other at the lower end of the fence-post than at the upper end thereof, so as to prevent the passage of small animals through the fence at the lower end thereof. While the line-wires 2 may be of any suitable form and construction, said wires preferably are bent at a lurality of points, as indicated at 3, to rocl uce kinks which by straightening out wil permit a longitudinal stretching of the line-wires 2 whenever necessaryl The line-wires 2 are connected with each other by a plurality of brace-wires 4, which are disconnected from each other and are of merely suflicient length to reach from one line-wire 2 to the next adjacent line-wire.
Each of the brace-wires 4, excepting only those which extend between the two highest line-wires, is bent around one of the linewires 2 at its upper end to form a plurality of sets of coils 5 and 6, which are spaced away from each other, as shown, and are connected together by a spirally-extending loop 7. The spaced sets of coils 5 6 and the spirally-extending loop 7 are all formed integral with each other and with the bracewire 4, as shown, the set of coils 6 being formed of the extreme end of the brace-wire. The spirally extending loop 7 preferably is disposed entirely below the line-wires 2. The arrangement of the spaced sets of coils 5 and 6 upon the line-wire 2 is such that the brace-wire is connected with the set of coils 5 at the extreme outer or left end thereof, as shown.
At its lower end each of the brace-wires 4 is bent around one of theline-wires 2, as indicated at 8, so as to produce a set of coils which are located between the spaced sets of coils 5 and 6 at the upper end of the next lower brace-wire 4. As shown clearly in the drawings, both ends of each brace-wire 4 cross the adjacent line-wires on the same side thereof, so that when a fence is constructed in accordance with the invention the intermediate portions of all the brace-wires 4 will be disposed on the same side of the line-wires 2. In other words, the brace-wires will not extend diagonally from the inner side of one line-wire to the outer side of the next linewire. This arrangement of the brace-wires so that they will all be disposed on the same side of the line-wires 2 causes all of the coils 5, 6, and 8 to be laterally offset on the same side of the brace-wires.
The arrangement described produces a sim ple and inexpensive form of fence in which the line-wires are hinged together in such manner that they can move easily with relation to each other. The neat appearance of the fence is greatly increased by arranging the brace-wires so that they all cross the linewires on the same side, as described, whereby the intermediate portions of said brace-wires are all disposed in a different vertical plane from that of the line-wires.
As shown clearly in the drawings, the upper ends of the brace-wires which extend between the two highest line-wires of the fence are formed at their upper ends with simple coils which extend around the top line-wire, it being unnecessary to form spaced sets of coils at the upper end of the fence.
' By extending the spiral loop 7 which con nects the spaced sets of coils 5 and 6, in a downward direction, as shown, so that it will be located under the adjacent line-wire, said loop is prevented from interfering with the pivotal movement of the neXt higher bracewire upon said line-wire. If the spiral loop 7 were disposed above the line-wire, it would interfere seriously with the hinge action of the neXt higher brace-wire upon said linewire.
What is claimed is A fence comprising a plurality of line-wires and a plurality of disconnected bracewires each of the brace-wires at the two ends thereof crossing the same sides of two adjacent l1newires, each brace-wire at the upper end thereof being bent to form a plurality of 3 spaced sets of coilssurrounding the line-wire and connected with each other by a downwardly-extending spiral loop, the brace-wire being connected with one of the spaced sets of coils at the extreme outer end thereof, and each of the brace-wires at its lower end being bent around a line-wire between the spaced sets of coils of the next lower brace-wire, the intermediate portions of all the brace-wires being disposed in a different vertical plane from that of the line-wires. o
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto afliXed my signature in the-presence of two witnesses.
