( No Model.)
'Patented'Jan. 24
UNITED STATES PATENT .FFICE; Y
LAFAYETTE BARTON, ,OF SHERWOOD, MICHIGAN.
MOLD FOR EARTH sauces.
SPECIFICATION forming'part of- Letters Patent at. 376,536, dated January "24, 1888.
Application filed June 3,1886. Serial No. 204,019. (No model.) 7
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, LAFAYETTE BARTON, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Sherwood, in the county of Branch and State of Michigan, have'invented certain new ,and useful Improvements in Molds for Earth reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification. I My invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in molds for building earth trate my invention, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the adjustable frame-work or casing which isemployed for building a fencein accordance'with my invention. Fig. 2 is an end View; Fig. 3, a vertical sectional view, and
- Fig. 4 isa sectional view taken through the line -00 of Fig. 2. v
A refers to the side pieces, which may be of any suitable height or length, said side pieces consisting of a series of longitudinal boards, a a, which are provided at their up-I per and lower edges with outwardly-projecting battens b and b, between which are secured vertical bars 0, which are rigidly connected thereto and to the longitudinal bars a by means of nails or other securing devices. One end of the side pieces, A-for instance, at the terminal of the fencehas rigidly attached thereto a board, B, which projects inwardly over the boards a afor a slight distance,.said board being bolted to the last vertical batten, c, of the section, thus providing said section with an inwardly-projecting flange, against which the end board, 0, may. abut. The end board, 0,
, isprovided with tapering sides, and its upper portion has a transverse batten, d, which will lieover the upper edges of the side sections,
can be built which will be regular in construeand the sides are slightly tapered, each side' converging equally toward the top.
D refers to clamp-bars, which are placed over the top edges of the side pieces, so as to hold them'in position andprevent them from I 5 5 being spread when the earth is thrown between them, the lower portions of said bars being held imposition from outward expansion by pins E, which are driven inthe'ground,'. the longitudinal board b 'rbearing against these pins. In putting up theframe-work oneof the tie piecesD may be provided with a plumbbob, so as to assist inplacing the center ofthe frame in proper position. One' of the ends of I one of the side pieces, A, may be cut at an angle, as shown in Fig. 1, which-is desirable in turning a corner, and the next adjacent sec-- 'tion will abut against this angular portion, while the outer side extends to the. opposite side of the frame;-
In building an earth fence the frame here inbefore described is set up, as shown in Fig. 1, and the earth is thrown between the side pieces and rammed or packed. After the earth has been sufficiently packed and. the '75 frame completely filled said frame can be taken down and moved as the construction'of'the fence progresses. By the employment of the device hereinbefore described'an earth Ifence -tion and the sides will be equal. Besides producinga fence of uniform construction, the I building may be carried on much more rapidly. P I I I am aware that it is not broadly new to cm- 8'5 able frame, as shown in the patent of Lewis B. Budd, datedJuly 26, 1881, and I do not there fore claim what is shown in said patent; but
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is I I A mold for earth fences, comprising the sides A,inc1ined inward toward each other and wider apartatv their base than at their upper edges, and constructed of longitudinallyarranged 5 side boards, a, secured to vertical'bars c, which are attached at their upper and lower ends-to outwardly-projecting battens b b, the stakes E, driven against the outer edges of the lower ploy in the construction of earth fences'a movbattens, b, to prevent the sidesfrom spreadroe ing at this point, the removable top tie-bars B, and the transverse batten d, substantially D, having end projections overlapping the as described. 10 top battens, b, to prevent the'sides from spread- In testimony whereof I affix my signature in ing at their upper portions, the inwardly-expresence of two witnesses.
5 tending end strips, B, bolted to an end strip, LAFAYETTE BARTON.
O, secured to the sides A, the end board, 0, Witnesses: having tapering sides bearing against the in- WVARREN HENRY,
weirdly-extending edges of the boards or strips D. R. SPENCER.
