REINFORCEMENT FOR CEMENT FENCE- POSTS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 4, 1907.
Application filed August 81,1905. Serial No. 273,848.
To all whom, it may concern;
Be it known that I, EDWARD R. SrowELL, a citizen of the United States, residing in Adams county, in the State of Indiana, and whose post-ofiice address is New Corydon, Indiana, have invented a new and useful Reinforcement for Cement Fence-Posts, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to fence posts of that character formed from concrete or cement and its object is to provide an efficient core for reinforcing the post throughout its length, said core being of comparatively light metal constructioh and havingintegral means ex tending therefrom whereby fence wires may be fastened to the center of one of the faces of the posts. I
With these and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel features of construction and combinations of parts which will be hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings is shown the preferred formof the invention.
In said drawings: Figure 1 is adetail view of one of the sections of the core; Fi 2 is a horizontal section through a post embodying the present invention; Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the core; Fig. 4 is a detail view of the fence securing key; and Fig. 5 is an elevation showing the post and a fence fabric secured thereto.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference, 4 indicates a triangular tie made of a single length of wire and having coils atthe apexes thereof, said coils being designated by the letter C. One of the sides of the tie has an integral loop A extending from the center thereof, said loop being formed by twisting the wire, as shown at B. The ends of the wire extend from one apex of the .tie, as shown at 5. The eyes C receive the opposite end portions of rods-1 so that when the rods are assembled within the post a trian 'ular skeleton core is formed which may be placed within a mold and covered with the cement or concrete body E of a triangular post. The core is so positioned that the loop A extends from the center of one face of the post and not from the apex thereof.
It is of course understood that a desired number of ties may be assembled on the rods 1 and after the post has been molded with post and held in place byinserting the key rodF through the loo s A so that it will extend transversely of t e fence fabric. The fabric is preferably arranged so that the uper wire 2 thereof is supported between two oops A while the lower wire 3 extends under the lower loop A. This arrangement has been shown in Fig. 5. By arranging the loops A upon the central portion of one face of the post the fabric H may be held more firmly against the post than where the same is supported against one apex or edge of the 0st, in which event the edge of the post is iikely to become chip ed or broken by reason of the contact of t 1e fabric therewith.
What is claimed is:
1. A metallic core for posts comprising a plurality of triangular ties, each tic having an integral coil at each apex and an outwardly extending loo at a oint between two of its apexes, an paralle rods extending through the coils to hold the loops in alinement.
2. A fence post comprising a triangular body and a metallic skeleton core embedded gular ties having their sides substantially 4 arallel with the faces of the body, each tie aving an integral coil at each apex, and a loop extending from each tie at a point between two of its apexes, said loops extending beyond one face of the body at points removed from its edges, and rods embedded within the body and extending through the coils, the projecting loops being disposed in alinement.
3. A fence post comprising a triangular body, a plurality of triangular ties embedded therein, coils integral with the ties and formed at theapexes thereof, alining loops extending from the ties at the center of one. side thereof, two .of said loops being disosed in close proximity to receive a single ence wire therebetween, parallel rods extending throu h the coils and embedded within the body, and a key rod reinovably mounted withinthe loops and parallel with the post.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence. of two subscribing witnesses.
