R. E. P-OINDEXT'ER. STAY ROD CLIP FOR WIRE FENCES.
No. 469,808. Patented Man-'1, 1892.
' UNITE STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ROBERT E. POINDEXTER OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA.
STAY-ROD CLIP FOR WIRE FENCES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 469,808, dated March 1, 1892.
Application filed August 20, 1891- Serial No. 403,206. (No model.)
' of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stay-Rod Clips for Wire Fences, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my said invention is to produce a stay-rod clip for uniting vertical stayrods to the horizontal wires of wirefences in such a manner that said stay-rods will be locked or clamped securely in position and effectually prevented from sliding out of place after being so secured.
It consists in a construction whereby the stay rod is arranged to act as a lever,'while the clip forms the fulcrum and holding points therefor, as will be hereinafter more particularl y described and claimed.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, which are made a part hereof, and on which similar letters of reference indicate similar parts, Figure 1 is a front elevation of one of my improved clips with a fence-wire passing through it horizontally and a stay-rod vertically, as when in use; Fig. 2, a similar elevation of the clip alone before being applied to the fence; Fig. 3, a side elevation of the parts shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 4, a central Vertical sectional view onthe dotted line 4'4 in Fig. 1, and Fig. 5 a rear elevation of the structure which is shown in Fig. 1 in front elevation.
In the drawings the portions marked A rep-v resent the fence-wire, B the stay-rod, and O my improved clip. The fence-wire A and stay-rod B are or may be in themselves of an ordinary and well-known construct-ion, and will not, therefore, be further described herein, except incidentally in describing the invention. The clip O in general outline resembles some of the clips already in use. It has a transverse recess for the fence-wire A and a vertical recess for the stay-rod B. At one as shown most plainly in'Fig. 1. As will be noticed, particularly by an inspection of Figs. 3 and 4, the ring 0 extends above the body ot the clip 0, so that there will be no difficulty in casting the hole through said ring directly from the mold. Just below the ring 0 is a fulcrum 0 (see particularly Fig. 4,) over which the stay rod B passes and against which it is forcibly pressed in assembling the parts.
The operation is that after the fence-wires A are strung the stay-rod B is placed alongside said fence-wires in the desired position, the rings 0 of theclips 0 having been passed over it. It is then brought into exactly the position desired, when the end of the clip 0 which carries the projections c c? and theadj acent portion of the stay-rod B are forcibly brought together, which bends the stay-rod slightly where it comes in contact with the fulcrum c and locks all the parts tightly together. The projections c c are then clinched down, as shown most plainly in Fig. 1, and the operation is complete. The spring-force inherent in the parts always maintains a firm contact between them and prevents all sliding or slipping on the part of the rod B. In some cases the fence-wire A might be so ar; ranged as to take the place of the fulcrum 0 without departing from my invention; but I prefer the construction shown. 7
Having thus fully described my said invention, whatI claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination, with the fence-wires and stay-rods of a wire fence, of a clip having a ring or engaging-point at one end for said stay-rod, an intermediate fulcrum, and pro; ections at the other end adapted to be clinched over the stay-rod at that point, whereby the several parts are locked securely together.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal, at Indianapolis, Indiana, this 17th day of August, A. D. 1891.
