Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 12, 1907.
Application filed July 13. 1906. fierial N0- 326,109.
To all zuhmn it 777/[Ly concern.-
Be it known that we, HARRY I-IUGo A. KnErsxY, citizens of the United States, residing at Colby, in the county of Clark and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fences, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
Our invention relates to improvements in fences; and one object of our invention is to provide a fence which will have maximum stiffness and strength combined with minimum weight.
Another object of our invention is to provide a fence in which the fence-posts will, by the fence-wires, be braced against twist ing or turning.
A third object of our invention is to provide a fence of the foregoing character and adapted for use with. woven wires.
A further object of our invention is to provide a fence in which the fence-wires will be securely held.
Other features of our invention will be alluded to hereinafter.
In the drawings illustrating the of our invention and the best mode now known to us of applying that principle, Figure 1 is a front view, and Fig. 2 is a rear View, of our new fence. Fig. 3 is a perspective detail showing the key and the slot or recess into which the key is forced in order to lockthe fence-wires. Fig. 4: is a top plan view of the fence-post, and Fig. 5 is a sectional detail on the line A A of Fig. 2.
As is best shown in Fig. 3, the fence-post is an angle-bar or wings a, which widen from the top down- GREENE and wardly to a point 7), Figs. 1 and 2, where the fence-post meets the surface of the ground, (or the ground-line.)
This distributes the material so as to provide the greatest strength at the point where it will he most needed. From near the point I) at the surface of the ground the fence-post narrows to a point at its lower end, in order to facili tate its ready insertion in the ground.
Each of the wings a of the fence-post is formed near its outer edge with a slot d,
principle any metal bar having two from one look to the which leads to a V-shaped recess 6, adapted to receive strands of wire of different sizes and to retain the same securely therein. The \I-shaped recess 6 extends upwardly in one of the wings of the fence-post, and in the other wing it extends in a reverse direction that is, downwardly. This causes the fencewire to pass through one wing of the post to the other wing at a slight angle. The fencewires w are held securely in the recess by means of a .tapered key f, which is driven from the outside to the inside of the fencest.
1 In order to adapt the fence-post for use with woven wire, wooden blocks 9 are inserted in the opening between the wings in rear of the fence-post. These blocks are secured in place by driving keysf into them. The woven wire h is then secured by staples to the wooden blocks in the usual way.
As will be evident from an inspection of the figures and from the foregoing description, the wire strands x are kept taut by the key-and-slot lock, and the wires themselves securely hold the fence-post against any twisting or turning.
After the fence-post is driven into the ground the wire cannot be twisted or wrenched from the look, as the wire passes other on the open side of the post, thus keeping it in a straight line.
What we claim is 1. In combination, a metal fence-post provided with wings formed with recesses; a block constructed to fit between said wings; and means for securing said block in place, said means being driven into said recesses.
2. A metal fence-post provided with wings the rear edge of each of which is formed with a slot from which extends a V-shaped recess for the reception of the fence-wire; said recesses extending upwardly in one wing and downwardly in the other wing.
In testimony whereof we hereunto set our hands this 9th day of July, 1906.
