IMPROVEMENT IN FENCES.
fltip grlgshub more; it ill flpse some can: amt mating omit at ttc same- TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONOERN:
Be it known that I, M. D. MESSLER, of New Lebanon, in the county of Montgomery, and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Fences; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full and correct description of the some, sufficient to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to fully understand and construct the some, reference being had to the accompanying drawings which make part of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 is a side-elevation of a fenco with my improvements attached.
Figure 2 is on end elevation ot'tho same, and V Figures 3 and 4 are sectional top views of parts 01' the same, showing thcmanncr of attaching and securing the wires.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.
The nature of my improvements consists in a novel mode of securing braces of fences in the ground and to the fence, and of novel means of holding the panels together.
A and B, in the drawings, may represent separate panels of a fence. Each panel is constructed of uprights C D, between which the cross-pieces or boardsE are secured in any known way. To the uprights O D, at one end of each panel, are pivoted cleats a It, provided with holes, corresponding with holes in the end pieces C D,
of the adjoining panel, through which holes a pin, b, passes, by which means partly the panels of the fence are held together. Rod's F, the-lower ends of which are of spiral or corkscrew shape, whilst their upper ends are bent, as shown in fig. 2, are bored into the ground, opposite each end of each panel, or of alternate panels, as may be most convenient, on each side of the fence. The vertical part of their upper bent ends is then secured to the uprights C D by clamps c, constructed of wire, iron, or any suitablematerial. Those rods F are the braces of the fence. Wires d are twisted around the rods F on one side of the fence, then passed through a hole in the upright C, along the top of the lower cross-piece E, between the pieces C D, until they have passed the adjoining pieces 0 D, then returning in the same manner, forming loops (1, in the upright 1), opposite to where they entered through the upright C, and are twisted around the rods F on the other side of the fence.
Keys .01 wedgesfare then driven into the loops 0, by means of which the panels are drawn near together, and
the rods]? secured rigidly iii-their positions. The rods F being bored into the ground will hold more securely than by the common way of putting them in the ground straight, as' they will work around roots, into cracks of rocks, and offer greater resistance to any force employed to pull them out. Should their upper bent parts become loose on the fence, it only needs the driving of the clamp in another place to again secure them to the fence. The wires 02 form cheap and durable connections between the panels, as they can be tightened at any time by drivingthe wedges or keys f into their loops 0. By witlulrawing the pin 1) and one wcdgof, holding the same panels together, one of thcurcan be easily taken out to form gate-opening, particularly when the rods F, wires 1?, and. cleats a a are placed only on alternate panels.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and dcsir'c to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The rods F, having spirally-shaped lower cnds,,thcir upper ends bent and secured to the upright of a fence, substantially as described.
2. The wires 1, forming thcconucction between the panels of a fence, constructed and arranged substantially as described.
3. In combination with the above, the pivoted cleats a a, secured and arranged substantially as described.
