Portable wire gate closer

摘要

A portable apparatus for closing wire gates includes an inner U-shaped ring that is pivotally attached at each end of the inner U-shaped ring to a U-shaped handle at each of two open ends thereof. A first length of chain is attached near to one of the two open ends of the U-shaped handle. A second length of chain is attached near to the remaining end of the two open ends of the U-shaped handle. The second length of chain includes a hook that can be attached to any link of the first length of chain, and therefore provides a method to adjust the overall combined length of the first length of chain and the second length of chain as desired. The inner U-shaped ring bears against a first post that is to be drawn closer toward a second post thereby eliminating the need for any attachment of the closer to either the first post or to the second post. The first length of chain is placed around the second post and the second length of chain is extended and the hook thereof is attached to a desired link of the first length of chain. The U-shaped handle is lowered into a horizontal attitude which draws the first post closer toward the second post. A second hook attached to a center of the U-shaped handle is placed around a section of wire as desired to better secure the gate closer in the closed position.
