Patent number: 11624202Abstract: The spring wire clip fastens fence wire to T-posts. The clip is constructed from hardened high carbon spring steel and has a geometry that allows the clip to be installed with no tools. The middle of the clip has a shape complementary to the T-post spine, typically a āVā shape, such that the clip wraps around the spine and the two ends extend laterally. Each end has a curl that can engage the fence wire on either side of the T-post. The clips can be installed five times faster than with standard twist-type clips and can be repositioned, or reused, as the attachment is not permanent.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2020Date of Patent: April 11, 2023Assignee: LOCK JAWZ LLCInventors: Nicholas Andrew Hiner, Alan Wade Simon

Patent number: 11346124Abstract: The corner fence post support consists of cylindrically shaped main ratchet that sits on top of a corner fence post, typically a T-post. A second component, a ratchet socket is attached to support legs. The bottom of the legs can be fitted with specialized foot structures or simply driven into the ground. The legs are usually placed inside the fence line where they provide outward support to the corner post to counter the inward force of the fence line. The main ratchet and ratchet socket can easily engage and lock together at multiple vertical positions, so that the optimal fit can be readily obtained under a variety of local conditions and a variety of grades, whether level, uphill or down-hill.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2018Date of Patent: May 31, 2022Assignee: LOCK JAWZ LLCInventors: Nicholas Andrew Hiner, Alan Wade Simon

Patent number: 10358840Abstract: A T-post insulator that includes means to attach in a plurality of locations around the post. The insulator portion of the device consists of an outer surface that wraps around the T-post about 270 degrees for optimal insulation of the wire. The wire is installed through means of a snap in action from the top center of the wire around a retaining post. The wire is insulated fully regardless if installed on a straight run or a corner installation where wrapping around the T-post is required.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2017Date of Patent: July 23, 2019Assignee: LOCK JAWZ LLCInventors: Nicholas Andrew Hiner, Alan Wade Simon
