1'0 all whom it may concern:
lie it known that l, JAY Daumxa, a citi- Z011 of the United States, residing at Williamsport, in the county of llj'arren and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful lmprowunenis in Staples for l ene'e-losts, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to staples of that character employed for securing wire fences to plastic posts and has for its purpose to provide an improved device of that kind which may be firmly anchored within the body of such a. post when it is being molded, and which also provides a. means for securing the fence wires thereto without the use of any additional fastening means. I
The further purpose of the invention is to produce a staple of the character in question from a single strand of wire the intermediate portions whereof are designed to form the concealed anchoring elements, and whose ends or exposed parts are tied and constitute the eye for receiving the strands of the wire fence.
\Vith the above objects in view the device is described in full detail in the following specification, and the points of novelty thereof set forth, in the accompanying claims.
In the drawing appended herewith wherein is shown the invention in its preferred structure: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a fence post showing my staples applied thereto. .l i g. 2 is a transverse sectional view thereof showing the position of one of the staples. Fig. 3 is a detail view of the staple. Fig. l is'a like View of a modified form of staple, and Fig. 5 shows a further moditicz tion thereof.
Referring to the several figures more in detail, and wherein like reference characters indicate corresponding parts in the different figures, the numeral 1 designates an ordinary form, of fence post made of plastic material, and 2 that face thereof to which the fence wires 1" are adapted to be secured. The several wires 1 are held to the fence post 1 through the medium of the staples, the structure of which staples will now be given. Each of these fastening members consists of a wire 3 preferably of a single strand and which is bent intermediate its length at the point (3, thence carried along with a portion 7 running parallel to the main length of the wire. The portion 7 is then bent at the point 8 and carried along with the portion 9 running parallel with said length 7 and the body of the wire, and has terminating end it) turned at, right angles thereto, said end being of relatively short length. With this relative relation of the several lengths 3, T, and 9, the former member is disposed slightly above and intermediate the latter members. portion t' bent at right angles to the parallel strands and is oppositely disposed to the member 10. fiaid members 6 and 10 constitute the means for anchoring the staple within the body of the post, said staple being properly placed therein during the molding of the post as heretofore pointed out.
l'then in applied position, 2'. (a, before the fence wires 1 are secured thereto, the loop portion 8 and the end at of the wire are exposed, the part t projecting outwardly in that manner shown in Fig. 3. In securing the line wires 1* to the post said wires are brought against the face 2 of the post and rest upon the projecting loops, (see Fig. 1). The end portions -t are then bent about the wires to provide securing eyes, and to make this seeurement of a permanent character said members s are passed through the loops b and bent against the outer ends thereof in precisely that manner shown in Fig. 2.
In that form of staple shown in Fig. 4, the strand of wire 11 is shaped to provide the two parallel lengths 17 and 20 which portions are in turn looped at the points 16 and 2t, and thence extended along parallel to ant co-extensive with the sections 17 and 2021s indicated. by the numerals 15 and 22. The section 22 terminates in a substantially short and angularly disposed end 23 Which' provides one of the anchoring members of the device. The section 15, on the other hand, is looped atl-t, and returned parallel with and intermediate the lengths 15 and 22, and terminates with the projecting portion 152 whose function is the same as that he end i shown in Fig. 3, 2'. c the end 12 is l with an eye for the wire and tied to one or the loops and 21 which will be exposed. The anchoring elements for this design of staple are made by bending the it ed. ends 1 is in opposed relation.
In the form shown in Fig. 5, the staple is in all essential details designed after the The loop and 19 at the points 13 and.
manner of that shown in Fig. 4, differing l -What I claim as new and desire to proonly in that the section Q L'thereof is disposed to one side of the parallel lengths 28 and 29 and not intermediate thereof as in the above instance. The end portion .25 forms the eye and tie for the fence wire, and the anchoring elements 27, 33 and 36 are formed in the manner already explained. This form of staple does, however differ from the others in that the parallel sections or lengths 28, 29; 31 and 32, are criinped or of a zigzag formation, to provide an additional securing means for holding the same within the plastic fence post.
FY0111 the foregoing descriptions it will be seen that 1 have provided several forms of staples which are particularly adapted for use. on plastic fence posts, and which by reason of their peculiar structure cannot be displaced through the ordinary wear or strains to which a fence of the character in question would be subjected.
feet by Letters Patent is:
1. A staple comprising a single wire bent to provide a plurality of lengths disposed in parallel relation, oppositely disposed anchoring inenibers formed adjacent to one end of said lengths, and an eye formed adjacent to the opposite end of said lengths.
2. A staple comprising a single wire bent to provide a plurality of lengths disposed in parallel relation, said parallel lengths being criniped throughout their length, oppositely disposed anchoring members formed adjacent to one end of said lengths and an eye :forined adjacent to the opposite end of said lei'igths.
in testimony whereof I atiix my signaturc;-in presence of two witnesses.
