YORK, N. Y.
, ASSIGNOB OF ONE-THIRD TO ALBERT H.
ONE-THIRD TO EDWIN S. HEALY, OF NEW POLE Original 110. 1,696,772, dated December 25, 1928, Serial No. 307,981, filed September 24, 1928. Application for reissue filed July 21, 1931.
My invention relates to a pole or post intended primarily to be used for supporting telephone and telegraph lines, but capable of being employed for various other purposes; and it is an object of the invention to provide a sectional metal pole made up of any desired number of sections, which may be readily built up or taken apart, and of simple and inexpensive construction; all as will be hereinafter more particularly described and claimed.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, which are made a part hereof and on which similar reference characters indicate similar parts, a
Figure 1 is a side elevation partly in section, of a pole, illustrating one application pole, any desired number of which may be used. The pole sections may be secured together by bolts or other fastening means 11. Each section of the pole is formed of four corner portions 10 slightly tapering from end to end and having two sides disposed at right angles and provided at their edges with interlocking lugs or fastening elements 12 which are adapted to be engaged by similar complementarily formed lugs or fastening elements on the adjacent corner member of the pole.
The pole sections are fastened together by the fastening bolts 11 at each corner within the angle formed by the two sides, and in order to provide suflicient foundation or support for the fastening bolts the extremities of the sections are provided with transverse web plates or inturned flanges 13, the inner edge Serial No. 552,273.
surfaces of which are curved to form, when combined with the other sections, a circular opening. Likewise, the corner members are provided with opposed elongated cut-out portions or complementarily formed open- ,ings which when the parts are in position form oval shaped openings which give the appearance of a light-weight skeleton frame, such frame however possesses sufficient strength to withstand the stress to which the pole is adapted to be subjected.
In Fig. 2 I have shown a pole formed of a plurality of sections, each section instead of being formed of four castings as shown in Fig. 1, comprises a single casting 14'having an elongated opening 15 at each side, said castings being secured together in groups of three by bolts 16 located at diagonally opposite corners, the bolts of one grou being staggered relative to the bolts 0 the next ad aCent group. Also the ends of each section are provided with inturned flanges 17 similar to the flanges 13 previously described. If desired, the pole sections shown in Fig. 1 may be fastened together in the same manner as in Fig. 2, by long bolts 16. A pole like that shown in Fig. 2 is of course much simpler and less expensive to manufacture and is also lighter in construction.
In Fig. 4 I have shown a joint between pole sections of the same general character as those shown in Fig. 2, with bolts 18 inserted from the exterior in curved openings 19, such fastenings being applied in a manner to engage the strongest portions of each section.
In Fig. 5 I have shown a plurality of pole sections 20, 21, 22 and 23, also of cast metal but of different designs which may be used in lieu of those shown in the other figures, and while I have shown only a few of such designs it will be understood of course that not only square, octagonal and circular poles may be used, but those of any preferred configuration as well.
It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes may be made in my device Without departing from the spirit of the invention, and I therefore do not limit myself to what is shown in the drawings and Q9 set forth. V
a; a B
described in the specification, but only as set forth in the appended claims.
Having thus fully described my said invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure byl ettarsvPatent, is:
members forming each section, substantially as set forth. 7 v
3. .A member adapted to be=combined with other members of a similar character for forming a section of a,p0le, said member comprising a. pair of flanges disposed substantiallyatrightangles, provided at one of their edges-with outwardly and downwardly extendi g P rtions forming interlocking lugs fol-engagement withcomplementary ln s on anad'caent section, substantially as set ort-h. v4..polecomprising a plurality of abutit disposed in end to end relation, formed of a plurality of longitudinal ementary members having complementa y'.fonmed interlockingelementsfor holdthe partstogether, and fastening means .the pole sections together, substantially as Set forth. 5.. .A polecomprising a,plura.l;ity oisections each formed of ajlplurali'ty of members provided withflcomp ementarily formed interand concealed fastening meant-J01 seminghzhe sections of-the poles together wherebyt sections are held in enga fiat, substantially as set forth. v T e combination of a plurality of elonted members having vccniplementa inter- ??cking elements for'holding the mem -rs.t0- gather, said. memberswhen combined formmg a ole section and being adapted to be secure in abuttin end to end relation with M other ,members to orm acomplete-pole, and fasteningelements holding said pole sections in.end,to end relation whereby the members forming each section are held against relative longitudinal movement, substantially as I a series of castmetal sections disposed in en toend abutting relation ,toeachrother. the abutting'ends of the re.- spective sections being provided with inwardgtransverse web .plates or flanges 3. A poleeompris' and for {preventing the disengagement of the metal sections secured to therip end toend relation, the abutting of the several sections being formed with web plates extending inwardly at right angles with the axis of the poleto form sup orting surfaces at the joints, and means wit in the pole structure for rigidly securing said sections together at said joints, whereb a continuous cast metal pole is provided 0 appropriate form and with a smooth exteriorand of such length asmay be desired.
9. A metal pole comprising a series of cast metal sections oftapered form the base of one section corresponding in diamcterto the top of the section immediately beneath, which sections are secured together in end to end relatiom'the abuttingends of .the several sections being formed with web plates extending inwardly at right angles with the axis ofthe pole-to form supporting surfaces at the joints, andmeans withinthe pole structure for rigidly securing said sections together at said joints, whereby a continuous cast metal pole is provided of appropriateform and with a smooth exterior and of such length as may be desired. v
In witness whereof, I have-hereunmset my hand at Washington, in :theDi'strict of Columbia, this 18th day of July. 1931.
