PORTABLE FENCE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 30, 1906.
Application filed AprillS, 1906. Serial No. 312,407.
' siding at Bardstown, in the county of Nelson, State of Kentucky', have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Portable Fences; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact descrip- .tion ofthe invention, such as will enable others skilled in the. art to Vwhich it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to wire worm fences, and it is the obj ect thereof to provide various improvements in the construction thereof, among which are the formation of the panels of the same form and size, so that one may .be the duplicate of another not only in the matter of its construction, but in its utiliZa- ,tion in the building of the fence, secondly, in
the form and arrangement of the uprights, whereby those of one panel are made to sustain those of adjacent panels and to direct and assist in the formation of the an'gularity or worm of the entire superstruction; thirdly, to alternately' face the uprights of each panel so that each upright embraces, as it were, the upright of steadiness, strength, and durability to the structure as a whole.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists in the construction, arrangement, and combination of parts, all as hereinafter fully described, pointed out in the claims, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side view of a fence constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a side view of a single panel thereof. Fig. 3 is a similar view taken from the opposite side. Fig. 4 is atop plan -view of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a diagrammatic view indicating the manner of formation of the uprights.
Like parts are designated by corresponding numerals in the several views.r
In the formation of the several uprights a single log or post of timber of approximately rectangular shape instead of being ripped through from corner to corner is cut, as indicated in Fig. 6, from near one corner to near the opposite corner, (indicated by the line a l) in said figure.) The two sections formed are -each in turn split, vas indicated by the lines c d, thus forming the four uprights.
The drawings indicate three sections or panels of fence, (numbered, respectively,
the adjacent panel, thus giving 13, and 14,) although it is to be understood that each of said sections is similar in size and form and that the description of any one applies equally to the others.
As shown in Fig. 2, each panel consists of a pair of uprights connected by a center or supporting bar 15, to which the uprights are bolted. The uprights are arranged against the supporting-bar in such a position that their inner sides will be oppositely inclined, as shown in Fig. 4.
l Each upright may be regarded as provided with the four sides or faces 7, S, 9, and 10, Iof which 7 designates the long side, 8 the short side, and 9 and 10. the intermediate sides, the latter being approximately of the same length.
In the construction shown one end of each bar is bolted to the short side 8 of the upright, with the long side 7 thereof outermost, while the opposite end of the bar is bolted to the intermediate side 9 of the upright, with the short side 8 thereof outermost. i When the several uprights are correctly shaped, the outer sides 7 and 8 of the uprights of each panel will form an obtuse angle with the inner faces of the bar and may be regarded as divergent, while the inner faces 9 and 10, which, respectively, form an acute and a right angle with the bar, may be regarded as convergent. The uprights of each panel are further connected together by the several horizontal wires' 16, which extend along the rear face of the said uprights and are fastened to the outer faces thereof by pins or other fastening means 17, the upper and lower wires 18 of each panel being double and twisted, as shown, thus providing a strengthened connection therebetween. The several wires 16 and 18 are connected by vertical wires 19, held in place upon the supportingbar by means of staples 20. By passing the wires 16 around the rear faces of the uprights the front faces thereof are unencumbered and can freely interlock in the followin .mannen f n setting up the fence the inner faces of the uprights of one panel will be in contact with those of the uprights of adjacent panels, as shown in Fig. 4, and the bar of one panel will be on the opposite side of the fence from that of the succeeding and preceding panels. The adjacent panels are fastened together, as shown, by means of bolts 21, carried by one IOO 12, 1upright of each panel, adapted to pass 11o through openings in the adjacent panel be retained in place therein by nuts 22.
As will be apparent from Figs. 4 and 5, the angle between the rear and inner faces of one upright is the supplement of that between the front and inner faces of -the other upright, andtherefore when two sections or panels of fence are locked together there will e a perfect joint between the contacting faces, and each upright of one panel may be regarded as embracing the opposite upright of the adjacent panel.
Owingto the identical construction of all of the panels, it is only necessary to fit togrether the panels from opposite sides7 when, owing to the supplemental construction of the angles of the uprights, they will readily interlock and accidental bodily movement of any one panel prevented.
Any defective or damaged panel may be readily detached from the fence and replaced by another in a short space of time, and as the several panels are identical they may be manufactured in bulk without necessitating different construction for each separate panel.
The formation and construction of the fence is thought to be apparent from the above, and further description is therefore unnecessary.
What is claimed isl. A fence-panel composed of a pair of uprights each of which is quadrangular in crosssection; a supporting-bar attached to the rear face of said uprights, and connectingwires; the angle between the rear and inner faces of one upright being the supplement of the angle between the front and inner faces and l of the other upright whereby be set with either end up.
2. A fence-panel composed of a pair of uprights each of which is quadrangular in crosssection; a supporting-bar attached to the rear face of said upriglits, horizontal wires connecting said uprights; the upper and lower strands of said wires being double and twisted to provide a strengthened connection; crossavires connecting said horizontal wires, and fastened to the supporting-bar; the angle between the rear and inner faces of one upright being the supplement of the angles between the front and inner faces of the other upright whereby the panel may be set with either end up.
3. A worm fence formed of a plurality of interchangeable panels each composed of a pair of uprights quadrangular in cross-section and located upon one side of the panel, a supporting-bar attached to the rear fare of said uprights, and connecting-wires; the inner face of each upright of one panel being in` Contact with that of the adjacent upright of the succeeding panel; the angle between the rear and inner faces of one upright being the supplement of that between the front and innerfaces of the other upright to permit a close lit between the adjacent faces of the nprights, and to effect the angularity of the fence.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
