SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 606,530, dated June 28, I898.
I Application filed March 14, 1898.
T0 aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, ALBERT FLESHER and JOSEPH L. CRIsLER, citizens of theUnited States, residing at Alert, in the county of Kay and Territory of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fences; and we do hereby declare the following to be'a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to Our..-i11vention relates to improvements in fences.
The object of the invention is'to provide a metal fence economical in construction and efficient in use. p
The invention consists in the combination of posts, of suitable material, having holesor perforations at their upper ends arranged at an angle leading from the side to the top or upper end of the post, and guys or stays connected with the upper end of the post with the top Wire or rail of the fence and anchored or secured in the earth at a distance from the bottom of the post.
i The invention also consists in other combinations hereinafter described and specifically designated in the claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective showing a fence-corner provided with our improved fence. Fig. 2 is av view showing a modification of the means for securing the guys or stays to the top of the post. Fig. 3 is a sectional detail showing the manner of coupling the wires or rails with the post. Fig. 4 is an enlarged elevation of the top of a post, showin g the method of clamping the top wire 'of the fence and looking or tying the guy wire to the post.
1 is a fence-post composed of any suitable material; but we have shown the same as being made from gas-pipe. The post is by prefer ence provided with inclined perforations 2 2, leading from the sides of the post and out at the top. The posts by preference are made to rest upon a base or support below the surface of the ground, although they may rest either upon the surface of the ground or slightly below the surface in the ground; but,
line of the fence.
as before stated, we'prefer to have them rest semi No. 673,845. (No an upon a stone or other solid base, as shown in dotted lines at-the left of Fig. .1.
3 3 areguys for supporting the posts against strain at right angles to or athwartthe line of the fence. These guys are also by preference anchored by means of a block of stone or other indestructible substance" buried in H the earth; but they maybe anchored bytmeans of a peg of the character of a tent-pin, both forms of anchor or holder being shown at the left in Fig. 1. I
The posts being erected and the guys being anchored in position, the wire-guy is led through the perforations 2 2 and around the upper wire or rail of the fence, as is shown in the drawings.
4c 4 illustrate guys arranged longitudinally to anchor the posts in the direction of the Obviously each one of the posts may be sustained by three or four guys, according to election; but we have found that lateral guys applied to each of the posts and longitudinal guys at intervals are entirely sufficient and satisfactory. After the fence is erected it is frequently found that the guys are not all drawn taut and to bring all the guys of a given post to the same tension we apply a tension ring or wire 5 around the posts, and thence around the guy-wires to take i up any slack there may be in any one or all of them. One tension-wire for each'post is usually sufficient; but obviously we may place two or more between the bottom and the top of the post. The fence wires or rails 6 may be provided with barbs, if desired, and all except the top wire are conveniently secured to the post by means of a loop or knot of wire 7 as particularly shown in Fig. 3.
In Fig. 2 we have shown modified means of connecting the guys with the top of the posts, the same consisting of a plug provided with a flange adapted for insertion into the top of the post, the cap or flange part of it being provided with perforations through which the guy-wires may be led.
Having described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A fence embracing the combination .of
posts provided with-inclined perforations, too
2 eoasso guys or stays having one end anchored in the ground and the other extending through the perforations, and a wire or rail of the fence around which the guys are extended, substantially as described.
2. A fence involving in its structure the combination of hollow posts, guys or stays having one end anchored in the ground and the. other connected with the top of the post, and a rail arranged above the top of the post, and a tension Wire or clamp to take up the slack of the guys or stays, substantially as described.
3. A fence involving in its structure the combination of a hollow post, guys or stays having one end anchored in the ground and the other connected with the top of the post
