FENCEPOSL MPLICATION HLED MAY 14, 1921- 1,42 3,934, Patented July 25, 1922.

g UNITED STATES PATENT orrise i WILLIAM P. HECKLEB, 0F NAPOLEON, onro.
rnivonros'r.
To (ZZZ whom it 17mg concern r Be it known that 1, WILLIAM P. lineman, a citizen of the United States, residing at Napoleon, in the county of Henry and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and use-. ful Improvements in Fencepostsdof which.
the following is a specification, reference be-' ing had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to fence post struc tures,and more particularly to corner fence;
posts.
It is 'an object of the-invention .to provide a fence post of this character which is properly held in a vertical position through the medium of a plurality of braces cooperating with each'other. V i I a It is another object of the invention to provide a fence post of this character which is insulated from the ground to prevent corroding, and wherein the primary supporting brace of the post is connected to the post and also insulated from the ground. 1
It is also an object. of the invention to. provide a fence post of thischaraeteradapte.
ed to be supported by base" members formed of imitation stone and wherein the fence tion and arrangement of parts to be herein-.
after more particularly described, fully claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawingsin which:
Figure 1 is a vertical elevation of a corner fence post, constructed in'accordance with an embodiment of the invention,
Figure 2 is an end elevation and sectional view of one of the base members, showing.
the end of the fence post embedded therein,
Figure 3 is a side elevation and sectional view of another of the base members, Figure 4 is a top plan view of the base of shown in section, and Y the main basefmember, the fence post being Specification of Letters Patent. Pai gntgd July Application filed May 14, 1921. Serial No. 469,545 a Figure 5 is a side elevation ofthebraces, folded upon the fence post. a I
Referring to the drawings 5 designates an. imitation stone base membeiythesidesfi of said .base member taperingfrom'the bottom to the top of the base .member, the lower portion of said sides being provided with a flange 7.;w'hich serves as an anchor .for the base member, the taperingsides being arranged to prevent side movement of the base member within the ground.
hen: the base member 5 is formed, a corner fencepost' 8 ispositionedcentrally of the base member, said fencepost being .con-
strueted preferably of angle iron, and having bolts 8 orlikeprojections extending through its lower end to assist in anchoring the postwithin thebase member. In view ofthe fact that the. base member surrounds the lower portion of. the post, it is impossible. for the-post at any. time to. come in contact with the, ground. In addition to this the base is considerably larger and heavier than the post, so thatfdangenof the weight of the post overbalancing the base, is eliminated In order to render thefence post substantialand permit the same to properly sustain the fence wires under tjensiom thereis provided novel bracing means comprising a" primary brace member 9, which ismade preferably of angle iron or steel, said brace. being considerably longer than the post 8.
The end 10 of the brace is connected to the upper end portion of the post 8 by means of a bolt or rivet 11. The opposite. end 12 of the brace 9 is adapted to extend into a base member 13, the end of the flange 14 of the brace member 9, being embedded in the base member, while the extremity of the flange 15 of the brace member 9 engages the upper face of the base member 13. In
this way, the end of the flange 14': serves as an anchor for the brace member. The base member 13 is similar in construction to the base member 5 but smaller, and is adapted to be disposed in spaced relation to thebase member 5, so that a substantial support is provided forthe primary brace 9.
To assist the brace'9 in holding the post 8 in a vertical position, there isprovided a plurality of secondary or auxiliary braces 16 end 17, the brace 16 being shorter than the brace 17, and having one of its end portions bolted to the ntermediate portion of the fence post 8, The opposite end portion of ice the brace 16 has the end portion of its flange 18 beveled so as to permit the brace 9 to engage the end portion of the flange 18. In this way, the beveled end portion of the flange 18 serves to properly position the brace 9 with respect to the base 14. The brace 1-7 is disposed adjacent the ground and has its end 19 bolted or otherwise secured to the fence post 8. The opposite end 20 of the brace 17, similar to the brace 16, has the end portion of its flange 21 beveled so as to permit the end portion of said flange to engage the brace 9.
From the foregoing it will be readily seen that this invention provides a novel form of corner fence post which is properly braced and maintained in position through a novel arrangement of braces and imitation stone base members. The lower end of the fence post and the end of the brace 9 do not come in contact with moisture in the ground as they are disposed centrally of the base member; The flanges on the lower edges of thebase members resist any lateral or any like movement of the base members. In addition to this,the intermediate portions ofthe brace 9 and the fence post 8 are not only reinforced, but the post is provided with additional securing means. It will also be noted that the brace members 16 and 17 may be disconnected from the brace member 9, and folded upon the fence post in parallel relation, thereto, together with the brace member 9, so as to render the device compact for shipping. Another feature is that the brace member 9 is connected at three spaced points to the fence post, that is, through the medium of the (connection of the secondary braces and the connection of the brace member 9 to the end of the post,
provide right angular flanges, an elongated.
prim ary brace member formed substantially L-shapfed in cross sectionv to provide right angular flanges, the end portion of one flange of the primary brace member being connected to the end portion of one flange of the standard, a multiple of secondary bracemembers, each secondary brace member being formed substantially L-shaped in cross section to provide right angular flanges, one end portion of one flange'of ca ch of the secondary braces being pivoted to the standard intermediate its ends, the opposite end of said flange of the secondary braces being beveled and detachably connected to the primary brace, the remaining flange .of each of the secondary bracesehaving. one end thereof engaged with the remaining flange of th primary brace to prevent relative movementof the secondary braces and primary brace, said secondary braces being detachable from. the primary brace to permitmovement of the primary brace and secondary braces substantially into parallel relation with the standard.
In testimony whereofl hereunto afiix my signature.
