AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a wire that can carry electric current to a fence to reduce the risk of harm or damage to the animal or fence before the animal touches the fence. The invention is simple and easy to attach and can be used in different configurations and arrangements for fencing systems. The technical effects of the invention include increased safety and protection for animals and fences, as well as improved efficiency and reliability in fencing systems.

Problems solved by technology

Equally as damaging and often of greater detriment is the damage caused by the animals themselves due to rubbing, chewing, or leaning on the fence.
Often times, however, the electric wire is located immediately adjacent or close enough to the fence that by the time the animal contacts the wire and gets shocked, the damage to the fence, harm to the animal or both has already, or simultaneously, occurred.

Embodiment Construction

[0020] While this invention may be embodied in many different forms, there are described in detail herein specific preferred embodiments of the invention. This description is an exemplification of the principles of the invention and is not intended to limit the invention to the particular embodiments illustrated.

[0021] For the purposes of this disclosure, like reference numerals in the figures shall refer to like features unless otherwise indicated.

[0022] Depicted in the figures are various aspects of the invention. Elements depicted in one figure may be combined with, and / or substituted for, elements depicted in another figure as desired.

[0023] As known in the art, many fences are constructed using vertical support posts and horizontally extending rails. For example, FIG. 1 is an illustration of a portion of a fence 10 having a vertical post 11 and three horizontal rails 12. Posts 11 are generally positioned in a spaced relationship around a pasture or other animal confinement r...

Abstract

The invention is directed to devices, methods and systems for animal confinement. In general, the systems provide convenient wire holders that mount to a fence to hold a wire capable of carrying an electric current at a predetermined distance from the fence.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] Not Applicable STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH [0002] Not Applicable FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0003] The present invention is directed to livestock or other animal containment systems to maintain the animals in a defined area. In particular, the invention is directed to devices, systems and methods for deterring an animal from contacting a fence before the animal contacts the fence. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0004] Known fencing systems for maintaining animals, such as horses, cattle, sheep, goats, buffalo, poultry and other livestock are typically manufactured from wood, metal, plastic, or other materials, and including combinations of materials such as wood posts and polymeric railings, wood posts and steel railing, etc. A concern with many systems is the longevity of the fencing due to degradation by natural elements. Equally as damaging and often of greater detriment is the damage caused by the animals themselves du...
