Abstract
T Post Hole Driver is a manual, portable, reusable metal stake when driven into the ground and removed forms a hole for insertion of T Posts. The T Post Hole Driver is driven with a sledge hammer into the soil to create a properly shaped hole for the T Post. The T Post Hole Driver is removed and the T Post is inserted in the usual manner. The T Post Hole Drive allows for more accurate and uniform placement of T Posts with much less effort and time.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . The T post hole driver is a reusable, portable, metal stake that provides a more efficient method for accurate and uniform installation of T posts even in difficult soil conditions.
The usual method of driving metal T Posts requires work to be performed above shoulder level. This overhead effort is both inefficient and fatiguing. Even in favorable conditions, the use of the T Post Hole Driver to produce a hole prior to the insertion of the T post speeds the process and reduces fatigue. This method also allows for more accurate placement of the T Post which results in a straighter and stronger fence. When longer posts are used, the production of a prior hole allows longer posts to be placed with much more ease. If an insurmountable rock is encountered, then it may be difficult to remove the T post. Often the T post is bent in the process of removal. By having a predetermined hole for placement of the T Post this problem is eliminated.
2 . The T Post Hole Driver is driven with a sledge hammer into the soil to create a properly shaped hole for the T Post. The T Post Hole Driver is removed and the T Post is inserted in the usual manner.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
