Definitions

  • U.S. Patent 786,462 to Percival shows a molded fence post having a series of mortises for receiving the ends of fence rails, wires or the like.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a mounting post which can be produced in different configurations with different external shapes and appearances.
  • the present invention is a mounting post comprising an elongated shaft formed of cementitious material. Means for reinforcing the shaft are embedded in the cementitious material and an elongated channel member is embedded in the shaft.
  • the channel member has an opening facing outwardly of the shaft.
  • the channel member has inturned edges along the opening.
  • Support means are received in the channel member for supporting and retaining an element on the shaft.
  • the support means are slidable along the channel member and include side portions dimensioned to abut against the inturned edges to hold the support means within the channel member.
  • the support means may also comprise a wire insert for supporting barbed wire, or the like.
  • FIGS 2 and 5 show a rectangular post 10' having channel inserts 16 opening through the minor surfaces of the post.
  • Spring nut assemblies 50 are received in each of the channel inserts 16.
  • Each spring nut assembly includes a nut 52 having a width sufficient to rest against the inturned edges 20 of the channel insert, and a spring 54 which extends between the back of the channel insert 16 and the nut 52 to urge the nut against the inturned edges 20.
  • a wooden plank 54 is attached along each channel insert 16 through the use of bolts 56. It should be noted that the spring nut assemblies 50 can be moved longitudinally along the channel insert to be positioned where they would be most effective.
  • Planks 54 serve as effective nailing surfaces for wooden slats 58 which are held with nails 60 extending through the wooden slats into the planks 54.
  • Figure 3 shows a post 10" ' with a single channel insert 16 for use in mounting highway signs, city street signs, or other general post applications.
  • Shown mounted on post 10'" is a gusset 66 which is attached using bolts 68 connected to spring nut assemblies in the channel insert 16.
  • Gusset 66 is of heavy gauge galvanized steel for stabilization and strength in soft or sandy soil. Accordingly, channel insert 16 extends below the ground level of post 10"'. Gusset 16 is designed in a V-shape to permit easy insertion into the ground. In place of gusset 66, other mounting aids may also be attached to channel insert 16.
  • Figures 6 and 7 show a post 10'''' which is round and contains a single channel insert 16.
  • Post 10" is designed for use as vineyard tresseling for machine harvesting of wine grapes.
  • Eyebolts 70 are attached to channel insert 16 through spring nut assemblies 50. Eyebolts 70 are passed through washer 72 before being attached to the spring nuts 50 so that the washers and spring nuts apply pressure to opposite sides of the inturned edges 20, thereby holding the eye bolts in place to receive vines or the like.
  • Figure 7 also shows a top view of the sleeve 16 used to connect the post of the present invention to a post installing machine.
  • each of the posts of the present invention is of the same general reinforced concrete construction having a sleeve 16 mounted in the top and connected to the reinforcing steel cable to facilitate insertion of the posts.
  • FIGS 9 and 10 show a clip 80 used for mounting barbed wire 82 to a channel insert 16.
  • Each clip 80 has a protruding nose 84 which extends outwardly of the channel insert 16 and through which the barbed wire 82 passes.
  • a recurved portion 86 is formed to abut against the inwardly curved edges 20 of the channel insert 16 to prevent the clip 80 from being pulled free.
  • Clips 80 can be formed from spring steel or the like so that legs 88 are pressed against the sides of channel insert 16.
  • Figure 11 shows another arrangement for holding barbed wire or the like.
  • the device in Figure 11 includes a plate 90 having curved edges 92 which fit behind the inwardly curved edges 20 of a channel insert.
  • a second plate 94 is positioned outside of the channel insert. Plates 90 and 94 are connected by a bolt 96 which pulls the plates together to hold the device onto a channel insert.
  • a spiral wire 98 extends outwardly from plate 94 to hold barbed wire or the like.
