DANIEL B. WING, F CHICAGQ, ILLINOIS, .ASSIGNOR TO HANS E. HAGGLUND, 0F7- CHICAGO. ILLINOIS.
BRUSH-HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 3,1911.
To all whom 'it may concer/n:
Be it known that I, DANIEL B. VING, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brush-Holders; and I do hereby declare the following to be a 4 full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to improvements in brush holders of t-he type adapted to detachably clasp the back of a brush for providing a handle for the brush and facilitating manipulation.
The object in view is the production of a comparatively simple and cheap construction vwhich is susceptible of ready and easy manipulation and at the same time affords a permanent and rigid connection of an operating handle to a brush for the purpose of operating the brush at a distance from the hands of the operator.
With this and further objects in view as will in part hereinafter become obvious and in part be stated, theinvention comprlses cert-ain novel constructions, combinations and arrangements of parts as herein specified and claimed.
In the accompanying drawing,-Figure 1 is a perspective view 0f a brush holder embodying the features of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal, vertical section therethrough taken approximately on the median line, parts being seen in elevation.
Referring to the drawing by numerals, l indicates a shaft or other suitable handle provided with a preferably metallic ferrule or cap 2, one end of which is apertured centrally of its end portion, as at 3, in line with a longitudinal, central bore formed in the handle. The aperture 3 is threaded for receiving the threaded shank 5 of a brush engaging hook or clasp member 6. The member 6 may assume various contours, but is preferably shaped to snugly t about one edge of the back of a brush, and to this end is provided with a return portion or lip 7 adapted to underlap the back of the edge of the brush.
A complemental clasp member 8 is disposed for lying on the opposite side of the back of a brush from clasp member 6, the member 8 being formed with a lower, outwardly turned lip or finger' 9 and an upper finger 10, the two fingers being spaced apart a distance approximately equal to the thickness of the back of the brush to be grasped. Extending upwardly from the clasp member 8 and forming a part thereof is an extension 1l strengthened at each edge by a web 12 formed integral with and extending along the extension, and also formed integral with and extending along the finger 10. The extension 11 extends past the shank 5 and is apertured, as at 13, for accommodating the shank and allowing a certain degree of lateral play or swinging movement of the extension 11 for adapting the clasp member 8 to accommodate itself in various angular relations with respect to handle 1 and the brush as well as with respect to the clasp member 6. A strengthening rib 14 preferably extends along the back `of the clasp member 8, and the extension 11 is preferably slightly curved with a eonvexity opposing a similar slight convexity of the end of the ferrule 2, so that the extension 11 with the clasp member 8 may be free to rock for a limited distance to accommodate the parts to such a position as they will naturally assume under gripping action of the clasp members against an interposed ob'ect.
In operation, the hol er is applied to a brush by having the clasp members 6 and 8 moved apart a sufficient distance for accommodating the brush or other element to be grasped, and then the clasp members are drawn together or toward each other into engagement with such brush by rotating the handle l, and thus threading the ferrule 2 along shank 5 until the clasp members 6 and 8 firmly grip the interposed element. To 'release the brush, or other interposed element, the handle 1 is revolved in the opposite direction and the ferrule is thus threaded back along the shank until the clasp members are free to be released from the brush. The shank 5 outside of the handle and beyond the extension l1 is formed with a non-threaded section which extends to the clasp member 6 and is preferably disposed at an obtuse angle both with respect to the threaded portion of the shank and to the main portion of the clasp member 6. This angularit of the non-threaded portion of the shank disposes the clasp member 6 substantially parallel to the main portion of clasp member 8, and largely eliminates the element of twisting stress which would occur if the shank 5 were straight throughout its entire length. Furthermore, the disposition of the non-threaded portion at the angle stated and the forma-tion of such non-threaded portion of a length substantially equal to the width of the element to be clasped enables and insures a disposition of such element with its working surface at an acute angle to the under portion of the handle, that is at such an angle as will cause the handle to extend upwardly at the desired angle when the brush is being used on a floor and to lie outwardly at the required angle when the brush is being manipulated against a window or other vertical surfaces.
What I claim is l. In an implement holder, the combination with a handle having a longitudinal bore, of a ferrule on the end of said handle having a threaded aperture registering with the bore of the handle, a clasp member, a shank therefor having a threaded portion threaded into the aperture in the ferrule, the intermediate portion of the shank between said threaded portion and the clasp member being disposed at an angle to said member and to the threaded portion of the shank, and a complemental clasp member having an extension loosely and shiftably carried by said shank.
2. In an implement holder, the combination with a handle, of a shank threaded into the handle, a clasp member fixed to the shank, and a complemental clasp member having a lateral extension formed with l,
an eye loosely surrounding the shank whereby the complemental. clasp member is shiftably carried by said shank.
3. In an implement holder, the combination with a handle, a shank threaded into the handle, a clasp member carried by the shank, and a complemental clasp member having an apertured extension disposed with the shank extending loosely through the aperture of the extension, said extension having a curved surface disposed toward the handle. A
4c. In an implement holder, the combination of a handle having a convex end, a shank threaded into said convex end of the handle, a clasp member carried by the shank, and a complemental clasp member having a curved extension of opposite convexity to that of the end of the handle and adapted to engage the end of the handle, said extension being apertured for the loose passage of the shank.
5. In an implement holder, a handle, a shank threaded into the same, a clasp member fixed to the shank, a complemental clasp member opposing the first-mentioned clasp member, the complemental clasp member being formed with spaced fingers extending toward the rst-mentioned clasp member and also being formed with an extension having an aperture through which the shank loosely extends.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
