Abstract

A fence post comprising a first post member including at least one through rail opening formed therethrough. There is also at least one through wire opening formed through the post member with an insulating member positioned therein. Additionally, at least one cavity is formed in the first post member for receiving a preserving composition therein. A driving member is fixed to a bottom surface of the first post member that includes at least one projection having a predetermined contour projecting from a bottom surface thereof for breaking obstacles as the first post member is driven through a ground surface.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A fence post comprising:
 a first post member having a substantially rectangular cross section and including at least one through rail opening formed therethrough;   at least one through wire opening formed through said first post member, said at least one through wire opening having an insulating member positioned therein;   at least one cavity formed in said first post member for receiving a preserving composition therein; and   a driving member fixed to a bottom surface of said first post member and covering a portion thereof, said driving member including at least one projection having a predetermined contour projecting from a bottom surface thereof for breaking obstacles as said first post member is driven through a ground surface.   
   
   
       2 . The fence post as recited in  claim 1 , further comprising a second post member fixedly coupled to a back surface of said first post member. 
   
   
       3 . The fence post as recited in  claim 2 , where said driving member is extended to cover at least a portion of a bottom surface of said second post member. 
   
   
       4 . The fence post as recited in  claim 1 , where said first post member includes a pair of opposing side surfaces having concave contours. 
   
   
       5 . The fence post as recited in  claim 1 , where said first post member includes a pair of substantially planar opposing side surfaces. 
   
   
       6 . The fence post as recited in  claim 2 , where said first and second post members are formed from materials selected from the group consisting of wood boards, wood scraps, recycled composites, bamboo, kenaf grass and ceramic materials. 
   
   
       7 . The fence post as recited in  claim 6 , where said first and second post members further include thermoset compositions molded therein. 
   
   
       8 . The fence post as recited in  claim 1 , where said predetermined contour includes a plurality of arcuately formed tines for breaking the obstacles. 
   
   
       9 . The fence post as recited in  claim 1 , where said preserving composition is formed of materials selected from the group consisting of sodium borate, silica gel, and permanganate manganese ore. 
   
   
       10 . The fence post as recited in  claim 1 , where said at least one cavity is formed on said bottom surface of said first post member. 
   
   
       11 . A fence post comprising:
 a first post member having a substantially rectangular cross section and including at least one through rail opening formed therethrough;   at least one through wire opening formed through said first post member, said at least one through wire opening having an insulating member positioned therein;   at least one cavity formed in said first post member for receiving a preserving composition therein;   a second post member integrally formed on a back surface of said first post member; and   a driving member fixed to bottom surfaces of said first post member and said second post member, said driving member including at least one projection having a predetermined contour projecting from a bottom surface thereof for breaking obstacles as said first and second post members are driven through a ground surface.   
   
   
       12 . The fence post as recited in  claim 11 , further comprising a third post member integrally formed on a front surface of said first post member. 
   
   
       13 . The fence post as recited in  claim 12 , where said driving member is extended to cover at least a portion of a bottom surface of said third post member. 
   
   
       14 . The fence post as recited in  claim 12 , where said first, second, and third post members are formed from materials selected from the group consisting of wood boards, wood scraps, recycled composites, bamboo, kenaf grass, and ceramic materials. 
   
   
       15 . The fence post as recited in  claim 11 , where said predetermined contour includes a plurality of arcuately formed tines for breaking the obstacles. 
   
   
       16 . The fence post as recited in  claim 11 , where said at least one cavity is formed on said bottom surface of said first post member. 
   
   
       17 . A fence post comprising:
 a first post member having a substantially rectangular cross section and including at least one through rail opening formed therethrough, said first pots member including a pair of opposing side surfaces having concave contours;   at least one through wire opening formed through said first post member, said at least one through wire opening having an insulating member positioned therein;   at least one cavity formed in said first post member for receiving a preserving composition therein;   a second post member fixedly coupled to a back surface of said first post member;   a third post member fixedly coupled to a front surface of said first post member;   a driving member fixed to bottom surfaces of said first, second and third post members, said driving member including at least one projection having a predetermined contour projecting from a bottom surface thereof for breaking obstacles as the fence post is driven through a ground surface.   
   
   
       18 . The fence post as recited in  claim 17 , where said first, second and third post members are formed from materials selected from the group consisting of wood boards, wood scraps, recycled composites, bamboo, kenaf grass, and ceramic materials. 
   
   
       19 . The fence post as recited in  claim 16 , where said predetermined contour includes a plurality of arcuately formed tines for breaking the obstacles. 
   
   
       20 . The fence post as recited in  claim 16 , where said preserving composition is formed of materials selected from the group consisting of sodium borate, silica gel, and permanganate manganese ore.
