T-Post rustler

Abstract

The T-Post Rustler is a device that is mounted to an adapter plate, which is mounted to an ATV or UTV so that the Rustler can be pinned into work or transport position. When in transport position the ATV or UTV can move to its destinations were it will began to remove metal t-posts on fence rows or etc. When in position you will remove transport pins, then let the Rustler down so that metal foot touches the ground. Now release the winch cable so that the locking plate becomes free from the Rustler so that you can slid the locking plate over and down the metal t-post to the lowest point. Then you can began to winch the t-post out of the ground, once the t-post is out the ground then slid the locking plate off the t-post and then place locking plate back into transport position.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to being attached to a ATV or UTV vehicles so that it is more work towards the Rustler than it is towards the vehicle.

2. Description of Prior Art

Over a period of time farmers have dealt with fence repairs and over the years in which means farmers of cattle, horses and agriculture still use fence row's today. Most farmers have switched to metal T-Post in place of wood posts because the wood rots and is a little harder to replace then it would a metal T-Post.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The object of this invention is to provide a safe and easier way of doing fence repair. By using a winch mounted on an ATV or UTV the T-Post Rustler makes life a little easier than before. With this invention you don't have to worry about wear and damage on the vehicle. I have tried the invention over and over just to make sure of the quality and safety of this invention. We as the inventors found that almost all of the abuse went towards the invention. We the inventors also tested several winches and found that it would take at least a 2.5 or a 3.0 to do the job. About 99% of the invention is welded together.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

It would be a better understanding of the present invention that will become apparent upon consideration if the following detailed description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein:

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the T-Post Rustler covering the invention in an upright position and is also lettered for each individual piece.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the Rustler FIG. 1 in a top view position.

FIG. 3 is a side view of the Rustler attached to a ATV and is showing how it is being used to pull out a T-Post.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE LETTERED EMBODIMENTS

Now as we take a look at FIG. 2 you see that you are looking from the top down at the Rustler. So that you can have a better look at the bends and shapes of the invention. Now looking at FIG. 1 you can see its shapes and design from the left side and also shows letters that indicates each individual part, some parts have a multiple sign which means 1 or more of the same. Now in FIG. 3 we can see that the T-Post Rustler is now attached to an ATV vehicle showing you how the invention is pulling out a T-Post.

Now as we take a look at FIG. 1 you can see each part has a letter and an arrow pointing to each part. As seen in letter (A) we used a piece of angle iron that measures two by forty-nine and half inches long and you will notice we rounded the edges off so there are no sharp edges. Now for letter (B) we used a piece of square stock one quarter by forty-nine and quarter inches long and we have welded (A) and (B) together. Now for letter (C) we have cut a piece of flat stock two by thirty-three inches by quarter inch thick and cut it about a twenty-two degree angle so the winch cable doesn't rub. Now for letter (D×2) which means two of the same but one is reversed as you can see in FIG. 2 and now (D×2) are welded to (B) and (E).

Now (E) is the support leg which is fifth teen and half by one and half inch tubing. Now for letter (H) it is a piece of flat metal that has been rounded on all corners so there are no sharp edges and it is fourteen by eight inches and is welded to letter (E). Now for letter (I×3) is flat metal cut three times four by five inch at a fifty degree angle and is welded to letters (E) and (H) to give more support to the leg section. Now for letter (J×4) we have cut three pieces of fourteen by half inch solid square stock and one piece six by half inch solid stock which is welded to the bottom of letter (H). Now for letter (G×4) pieces of two by quarter inch flat stock which has to be cut different lengths to fit between left and right sides of letter (D×2) and all four are welded in place. Now for letter (F×2) which two pieces of flat stock are cut two by three inches long and are welded to letters (B) and (E) and (D×2).

Now for letter (L) we have cut a piece of flat stock two and half by one and half inches long and welded to letters (F×2) and (B). Now for letter (K×2) we have cut two pieces of flat stock two by three inches long and rounded off one side of each piece so there is no sharp edge and have welded them to letters (D×2) on left and right sides. Now for letter (C) it has been put into place welded to letters (B) and (L) and we have drilled three holes into letter (C) so that letter (N) can be adjusted to the right height of the ATV or UTV. Now for letter (N) we have used two pieces of flat stock to make the snatch block and sheave pulley which is letter (O) to be able to move further away so the winch cable is clear of the invention and letter (Q) is a metal pin with a cotter pin attached so you can remove letter (N) to adjust to any hole on letter (C).

Now for letter (M) we have cut a piece of flat stock six by one and half inches long and have bent letter (M) to fit over letter (O) and to fit to either side of letter (B) and then drilled a hole through (M) and (B) so letter (O) can be attached to letters (M) and (B) and they are all held together by letter (P) which is a solid roller pin. Now for letter (T) we used a piece of flat metal four and quarter by three and half inches and cut it in a triangle shape and then we cut a triangle shape slot out of the middle so the T-Post can slide up and down the T-Post to desired position to be pulled out of the ground. Now for letter (S) which is a threaded cleaves and it attaches to letter (T) and attaches to letter (R×3) which is a three link chain in which attaches to letter (U) which is the winch cable.

Now as we look at FIG. 3 you can see the T-Post Rustler being used to pull out a T-Post out of the ground and how it attaches to the ATV. We have tested the invention and you have to be straight in line with the T-Post and you have to be at least (six to twelve) inches from the object which is a metal T-Post. You cannot pull from a distance or from the side because this may cause damage to the invention, or vehicle, or to the operator that is using the invention. Do not travel at a high rate of speed if the T-Post Rustler is attached to your ATV or UTV vehicle because this may injury or maybe even death.

Now for (V) we used a large hook so that letter (T) can be hooked for transport to the next post. Now for letter (W) we used a three inch shaver pulley so that you can place the winch cable under the pulley to pick the T-Post Rustler off the ground. If and only the next T-Post is close. But if moving a long distance needs to be put in transport position which means both pins need to be put in letters (K). Now for letter (X) we have put a handle so that the invention can be easier lifted and put in transported.
