Application filed April 3, 1913. ficrlal No. 'ifid,5'73.
To all 107mm it may concern Be it known that LJAcu M. Boom, e. citizen of the United States, and a resident of American Falls, in the county of Power and State of l'deho, have invented a new and useful improvement in Posts or Poles, of which the following is a specification.
My present, invention relates to posts orpoles, my object being to provide it metallic post which may be quicldy and econoinlcellyformed, which will effectually receive and bold longitudinal fencewires and thusbe adopted for use as u. fence post, and which may be driven into the earth and rigidly 'muintain itself in position.
Further objects, and; he advuutuges oi -f my present construction will appear in the course of the following description, in which reference is made to the accompanying drawing, forming a purl; of this specificstion, and in wh1ch- Figure 1 is a. side elevation of the ostblank, the preliminary operation oi hen ing the angular portions or the plate having been completed, Fig: 2 is e front elevation of the completely donned post, illustrat ng its practical application, lg. 3 is o, side elevation of the completed post as shown in Fig. 2 with its upper portion broken away and in section in order to better illustrate the fence wire fasteners, and Fig. 4 is an: enlni'ged cross section taken through the post substantially on the line 4-4; of Q, and looking downward.
Referring nowto these figures, the blank of my improvec fence post In formed of an elongated striped sheet metal, the upper end of which is squarely cut oil, and the lower end of which. is tapered to a point located in "the medinn plane of the strip.
in the preliminary operation of forming the posts, the strip is bent elofig its median longitudinal line, in order to form angular portions A end A as shown, the pointed lower end being indiceted at a, and provided with u plhrelity 0i apertures o, ex tending in a series from a substantially central point to its upper end and located along the line of englebetween the said portlons and A, each of these apertures forming transverse slots in the outer face of the post into which the longitudinal. wires B of u. fence may project, it being thus easy to secure these ic'ence Wires B by the use of U-sheped fasteners C, as particularly indifipecihcation of Letters Patent.
Patented ill-sir. ill. 191d.
noted in Figs. 3 and i, which straddle the fence wires and have their I extremities spread apart upon the inner surface of the post after being extended through the apertures a, before mentioned.
Adjacent to the lows end oi the post the angular portions A. and A are provided with lateral extensions or wings l and l),
' otthe upper ends of which are formed longitudinally extending prongs d, the inner sides of which are separated from the sides of the said angular post portions, the said wings being bent, following the bending of the angular post portions, to lie in substantiolly the same plane, and the prongs 63 being cm'vcd forwardly and downwardly in order that; their sharpened ends muy extend into the soil and form lateral supports for the posts when the letter is driven into the ground. Below the prongs d, the an or portions A and A ere provided with ownw'ordly diverging slits e, in order to form ini gml tongues E, which are bent) to flare forwardly" zind outwardly with rcspect to the posts in order to resishupwnrd movement of the post after it has been driven intothe ground as befoi 'f described.
'llhus from'the foregoing it may be readily seen that the operations incident to the formation of my improved fence posts are comparatively simple and inexpensive and that the structure which I provide necessitutes the use of a. comparatively small section of metal plate. it will further be seen that when theience post is driven into the ground the upwardly and outwardly flaring tongues IE will resist any tendency toward upward movement of the posts, and will quite naturally cooperate with the downward bent prongs d to laterally support the post.
1 china-- 1. d'post blank composed of an elongated plate of metal bent longitudinally upon itself to form two wings at an angle to each other,
the said plate having its wings provided at their lower ends with lateral extensions and having the upper ends of said extensions se united at their inner edges from the body 0 the post to form projecting tongues, said tongues being tapered to form outer pointed ends end being bent downwardl so as to enter the surface of the grounc, the said wings being also slitted below said tongues to form tongues free at their upper ends, the
lateral extensions being adapted to be bent out of the plane of the wings from which they project, substantially as set forth.
2. A post comprising an elongated plate bent to form angular portions, the said angular portions being tapered and sharpened at their lower ends and being provided ad jacent said lower ends with laterally projecting wings bent to extend in substantially the same plane and provided at their upper ends with downwardly bent prongs adapted to form lateralsupports for the post as used.
3. A post of the character described, comprising an elongated plate bent along a longitudinal line to provide angular portions, the lower endsof said angular portions beadjacent the lower end of the post in order to provide upwardly and outwardly flaring tongues adapted to resist upward movement of the posts in use, and to cooperate with the said wings and prongs to form lateral supports for the post, substantially as described.
