BERENT P. ANDERSEN, OF RACINE, WISCONSIN.
IRON FENCE-POST.
Application filed August 14, 1907.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 17, 1908.
Serial No. 388,439.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, BERENT P. ANDnizsiiN, a Subj ect of Denmark, residing at Racine, in the county of Racine and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Iron Fence-Posts, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to fence posts and particularly to iron fence posts.
The object of my invention is to provide a fence post which may be easily and quickly removed from one place and fixed in another, and that without the necessity of digging to remove the post or to reset it, and which will be firmly anchored when in position; and to provide an iron fence post as mentioned, which will not be readily displaced froin its vertical position.
With these objects in view my invention consists generally in the fence post hereinafter fully described and particularly pointed out in the claims.
My invention will be more readily understood by reference to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specifica tion and in which,
Figure l is a side elevation of a fence post embodying my invention, the anchor plate being shown in section, Fig. 2 is a plan view of the anchor plate, Fig. 3 is a detail upon an enlarged scale, of the joint between the post proper and the anchor plate, and Fig. l is a detail sectional view of a portion of the post, on a much enlarged scale, illustrating a device for fastening the strand wires to the ost.
p Referring to the drawings, l indicates the post proper. This is preferably formed of an iron tube and may be squared as at 2, to provide a wrench hold. The bottom of the post is tapered as shown, forming an inverted conical portion, 3 and is then formed into a helical screw, 4.
5 indicates the anchor plate. This is formed of a rectangular metal plate having its four corners, 6 turned down to enter the ground, the plate 5, preferably lying on the surface. The center of plate, 5, is provided with a hole, 7 of less diameter than the post, l, to receive the conical portion, 3. The four corners entering the ground, prevent lateral displacement of the post in any direction.
To set the post, the plate, 5 is first slipped on over the screw, 4L, to the portion, 3 of the post. The post is then screwed into the ground. As the portion, 3 nears the surface the points, 6 of the plate, 5, may be inserted in the ground, and the post further turned until the cone, 3 wedges tightly in the hole, 7. It is evident that when the post is in place, it is securely anchored against both vertical and lateral displacement.
To secure the strand wires, a, to the post, I provide the novel clamp shown in Figs. l and 1l. This comprises a threaded shank, l() having a head, ll, which is provided on its under face with a groove to receive the wire, a. rlhe shank passes through the holes, 12, in the post, as shown and is secured in place by a nut, 18, which seatsagainst a boss, lll formed on the side of the post.
It is obvious that the post may be readily and quickly removed from one place and be easily reset in another location, without the necessity of any digging whatever.
Having described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. An iron fonce post comprising a tubular post portion proper, having a squared wrench hold formed thereon, an inverted conical base and a screw extension in combination with an anchor plate having a central hole of less diameter than the post proper and adapted to receive said conical base portion, substantially as described.
2. An iron fence post having a conical base terminating in an integral screw portion, in combination with an anchor plate having a circular hole of less diameter than said post and adapted to receive the conical portion of said post, said conical portion being wedged into said hole as the post is screwed into the ground.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
BERENT P. ANDERSEN.
