FENCE POST AND STAY.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 26, 1907.
Application filed April 18, 1906- $erial No. 312,495.
7'0 whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MONTA M. WICKHAM, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hegewisch Sta, Chicago, in the county of Cook, State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fence Posts and Stays; and 1 do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled pertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to the attachment of wire fencing composed wholly or in part of horizontal wires to U-shaped channel-bar or angle iron or steel fence posts and stays.
It is the object of my invention to provide an angle iron or steel fence post and stay of triangular form in cross-section, (or any form having two opposite wings,) each wing provided with slots for the reception of the longitudinal wires, the said slots in one wing of the post or stay being reversed in the opposite wing of the same post or stay and the resting-points of the wire in the slots of a line of osts being such as to have the wire forming the fence extend in a straight line from one wing of the post or stay to the other wing and from post to post and stay to stay or post to stay or stay to post, said slots to be punched every two inches in the part of the post that stands above ground in order to place the wires at any desired distance apart.
It is the object of my invention to form a fence that shall be strong and durable, be easily and quickly put up and taken down without crimping or damaging the wire in any way, and to provide a post which can be spiked to a wooden post already set or be partially buried and used for a post entire, and to provide a fence-stay of smaller dimensions than the post to attach between posts to the horizontal wires, holding them firmly and parallel to each other, these stays to rest on the ground.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation showing a portion of the fence embodying the present invention and illustrating two ways of anchoring posts when desired. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section in the art to which it apthrough one of the of one wing extending posts. Fig' 3 is an enlarged elevation of a portion of a post. Fig. 4 illustrates the manner of attaching wire-netting.
Referring now to the drawings, each postis formed of sheet metal and comprises mutually-connected wings 5 and 6, which in h ig. 2- are illustrated as standing at right angles to each other, although it will be understood that the angle and the specific cross-sectional shape may be varied. 'lhe lower end portion of the post is split longitudinally along the line of the angle, and the lower end of the wings are bent outwardly at right angles at both sides of the slit, as shown at 7 and 8, to form feet. These feet may rest upon the surface of the ground, as shown at the left of Fig. 1, or the lower end of the post may be buried, as shown at the right of b ig. 1.
In each wing 5 and 6 are formed a plurality of wire-receiving slots. The slots in the wing 5 extend first inwardly and do nwardly, as shown at 9, and. then upwardly or vertically, as shown at 10, while the slots in the wing 6 extend first inwardly and upwardly, as shown at 11, and then vertically and downwardly, as shown at 12, the upper ends of the portions 10 of the slots of the wing 5 being at the same height as the lower ends of the portions 12 of the corresponding slots of the wing 6.
In the use of the post the strand-wires are passed through the portions 9 and 11 of the slots and finally engaged in the inner end portions of the portions 10 and 12, respectively, of the slots, the tension of the wire insuring against accidental disengagement from the slots. When the lower end of the post is not buried, the post may be anchored by driving nails 15 through both wings of the post and into a stake 16, driven into the ground, or if there is a convenient tree it may be nailed to it.
In Fig- 4 of the drawing is illustrated the manner in which wire-netting may be secured to the post by engaging its upper and lower edges in corresponding slots.
Vhat is claimed is A metal fence-post comprising wings provided with slots extending inwardly through the longitudinal edges of the wings the slots inwardly and upwardly then vertically downward while the f In testimony whereof I aflix my signature slots of thle other wing extend 1inwardly 31nd in presence of two Witnesses. downwar 1 and then vertica 11 War T I I, the inner a id outer ends of eacli sldt of ori e i TA WVICKHAM' 5 wing being at the same height as the inner Witnesses:
and outer ends of the corresponding slot of S. A. MARTINDALE, the other wing. 5 JosEPH BERG.
