IMPROVEMENT IN FENCES.
The Schedule ereferred to in these lIILetters Patent and making part of the carne.l
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM MALLARY, of Bueyrus, in the county of Crawford, and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements n'Fences; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description ofthe same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making part of this speciiication, in which- Figure l is a front view in elevation.
Figure 2 is a face view ofthe stationary post.
Figure 3 is a sectional view of the fence-panel, with compound brace attached.
Figure 4 isa sectional View of the fencefpanel, with adjustable brace attached. v The nature of my Ainvention consists in supporting a fence by a single stationary or permanent post, and ,a series of compound and adjustable braces, the latter being so disposed along the line of fencingthat a se cure and durable fence is provided, and, also, one that can readily be removed should occasion require, The panels are connected together by means of a stationary and sliding coupling, the former being provided with 'a suitable opening for a wedge-shaped key toenter, by means of which the panels are securely locked in position.v
.To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my inventioml will nowI proceed to describe its construction and operation.
- A is the post, and may be made of any'desired ma' terial.. The one shown in the drawing isasquare-l 'rectangular piece of timber, its length being slightly greater than the height of the panel it is intended to support. 1
This post A is to be perfectly stationary, and `is so 'rendered' by means of iron rods, a a, usually about twelve inches in length, and of such Athickness as' to insure the requisite strength for the purpose intended. These rods a a, are lirmly secured to the opposite sides ofthe post A bymeans of screws or bolts, a a', or any other convenient means.
These rods a a are also permanently secured in a shoe Hor chair, A', which may be composed of a block of either wood, iron, stone, or brick, and which is to be firmly embedded in the ground, and at such distance as to furnish a firm and rigid support for the post A, the lower surface of which, when permanent-ly set, being held al short distance above the surface of the ground.
This post A is also provided with two or more stirrnps'or clasps, B B. These stirrups or clasps B B consist of two flat metal plates, the outer edges of which are bent at right angles, so as to furnish flanged faces, b l). These stirrups are-secured to the post A by means of screws or bolts b b.
The metal plates which compose the stirrup are attachedrto the post A, on its opposite sides,and at such position that their flanges b b are thrown in front of the inner face of the post, and at such distance there from as to allow of the free insertion and withdrawal of the panel O.
A wooden seat or stump, B', is secured to the post A, near the lower surface of the same, for the panel O, to rest on, when the latter is in position. Instead ot' this stump B, a suitable stationary support .of stone or brick may be'lprovided;
By this arrangement of A post, it will be obseryed, that the rst panel O, and, consequently, the entire fence, is held entirely free ofthe ground.
t The panel is secured to the post -withou t. the aid of nail, screw, bolt, or any other permanent attachment,l and insuch manner that the fence can readily be set and removed ,atwilL v C O' are two panels' of fencing, and are constructed in the usual manner, care being taken that the cleats or uprights, c c', ofthe panel C, shall be of such-dif mensions that, while they can bereadily inserted -in the stirrups B B, still, at the same time, when once in position, they shall be firmly held, so that the panelk shall always occupy an upright position, and without tion.
The panels U'C'are firmly locked together by means of couplingbars, D D', the former of which is made to v These bars are slide, while the latter is stationary. composed of ilat metal plates, of wood, or any other suitable material, and are inserted between the cleats or uprights c c', ofthe panels C O', one being4 secured near the upper, and the other near the lower surface of the same.
These bars D l) are of such length that they protrude a few inches beyond the panel to `which they are attached, thus aifording the Ameans of fastening the same on the outside 'of the cleats oruprights of the ad-v joining panel, as clearly shown .in iig. l.
` The sliding coupling-bar D is Vprovided with a head or shoulder, which prevents it from being drawn be'- yond the desired point, and is formed with an opening or slot, d'.
When the panels are in position, as shown in fig. l, by simply inserting a wedge-sliaped key in the opening tl', a firm and secure iasteningis afforded.
E is a compound brace, and consists of a rectangu- `lar piece ot' timber, E,bevelled at its upper section,
as shown atc, fig.,3, so as to give it an angular' bearing on the cleats or uprights of the panel, from which it descends in a slanting direction.
Tol the lower end of this piece Eris permanently secured, by means of staples e e', or other equivalent device,.an iron rod, e, which is also attached to a seat or cha-ir, E2, which is composed of a block of either wood, ii'on, stone, or brick, and, like the chair A', of the post A, is to be rmly embeddedf in the ground. This brace is clearly vshown in -iig. 3.
. l F is a double-compound adjustable brace, and can he'ttached and detached at pleasure.
This brace F consists of two pieces of timber, F F', slightly'bevelled at both their upper and lower surfaces, as seen at :c af, iig. 4, which causes them torest against the panel, and afford an angular bearing.
These pieces F' F' are secured to the cleats orruprights -of the panel, and also to their base-block or board, G, by means of staples, j' f, and hooks, f f.
G is a rectangular base-board or block, and furnishes not only the lower bearing-surface of the pieces 1" F', but, also, a seat for the end of the panel, as seen at g', g. 4.
To this block or board G are attached iron rods g g, which are also firmly secured 'to a chair or shoe, G', which is composed of' a block of either wood, iron, stone or brick, which is to be iirmly embedded in the ground.
An additional or intermediate support, H, can be readily7 furnished by simply securing to one of the centre upright cross-pieces, a metallic rod, h, and a block, H', the length of, the rod being such that the block shall rest on the surface ofthe ground.
These braces E F and intermediate support Hmay be applied as seen t, the number used depending upon the length and weight of the fence.
Having thus fully described my invention,
What -I claim therein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-
1. The post A, when the same is provided with stirrupsor clasps B B and stump B', and is secured to the block A' by rods a a, all being constructed and arranged substantially as described. l
2. The compound brace E, when the sameis arranged and applied substantially as described.
3. The double adjustable brace F, when the same is secured to the block G and applied to thee-fence,`
substantially as described.
4. Introducing, midway the panel, an intermediate support, H, 'when the same is arranged so as to operate substantially as described.
5. A fence, consisting of panels O O', connected by coupling-bars D D', post A, braces E F, and intermediate support H, when the whole is so combined and arranged, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
