the latter to be used with or without the v fountain-appliance, as may be desired.
One of the objects of our invention is to improve the clamping means by which the fountain-appliance is secured to the brush.
Another object is to improve the construc tion of the fountain-appliance with a view:
of effecting a thorough distribution of the. water over the entire surfacev of the brush.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure l.
is a top plan view of the brush, partly section. Fig. 2 is a side elevation with the handle portion shown in. section. Fig. 3, is a bottom plan view with a portion ofthe bristles removed and the clamping device.
shown in section. Fig. 4 is. a vertical longie tudinal section of the clamping device- Fig. 5 is a cross sectional view, on line 5. 5,.Fig. 4:. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the clamping device with the shell removed.
Similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts. in the several. views.
1 represents the body or stock of the brush the outer edge of which is provided with a groove 2. Assembled in this grooveare two water- supply tubes 3, 1, provided at their outer or front ends with inwardly-extend ing hooks or lips 5 which are detachably seated in a socket or opening 5 located in the edge of the brush-stockv 1, so as to hold the front portions of the tubes in place thereon. These tubes conform generally to portions terminate in substantially parallel tangs or extensions 6, 7
At suitable intervals, along its lower marginal edge the brush stock is formed with recesses 8 forreceivingjet nozzles. 9 which project inwardly fr m thetube-sections3, t, and distribute the. watertherefrorn prefer. ably to the inner or base. portions ofv he bris les- At hese points. the jets. issuing from the nozzles meet with the least resist ance and the water is therefore projected into the central as well as the marginal portions of thebrush, thoroughly distributing it into all parts thereof.
Adapted to be received upon the tangs or rear extensions of the tubes 3, 4, is ahead, manifold or Y-connection 10 provided in its front end with. sockets 12, 13, which communicate with the inlet chamber 14 thereof. This chamber is provided at its. rear end with a hollow screw threaded stem 15 to the pro ecting rear end ofwhich isv applied a screw nut or nipple ldadapted to receive the customary supply pipe or hose 18. The hollow tangs or extensions 6, 7 of the tubes communicatev with the inlet chamber 14, as shown in Fig. 3, while. the front ends of the tubes; areclosed.
Surrounding the connection 10 is. a shell casingor abutment 17 which bears against 3 the contracted rear portions of the tubes 3, 4, the, front. end of the shell being preferably notched to receive the latter. The closed rear end of this shell is provided. with an Qpeningfor the passage of the. screw stem j 15.21 the. nipple 16 abutting against said closed, en
' Extending forwardly from the connection 10,.is a, laterally-swinging spring-arm 19 pivoted at 20 and having a downwardly-bent j lip 21 which is wedged rearwardly between the. converging portions of the tube- sections 3, 4;, upon tightening, the nipple l5. Said lip thus serves as an anchor which prevents rearward displacement of the connection 10 on the tangs 6, 7 and spreads or forces the lattGroutwardly against the outerwalls. of thesockets 12, 13. in the. connection 10, forming astrongand reliable connection between these partsi In, order to, prevent forward deflectlon of the. lip. 21 the connection 10 is preferably providedwith a hooked lug 22 which overlaps said lip. the shape of the brush-stock and their rear As. shown in Fig. 3, the outer ends of the Y sockets 12, 13 are preferably countersunk to receive rubber gaskets 2,3 which form a jwater-tight joint between the tube sections and the Y-connection 10.
24 indi ates the handle of the brushcarrying a ferrule 25. which fits frictionally and reinovably upon the rear end of t e shell, so that it can be readily de ached to. afiord access. to he screw n pple 16- When it is desired todetach the fountainappliance 3, 4 from the brush, the nipple 16 is removed after which the shell 17 is slid rearwardly off the screw stem 15, thereby exposing the pivoted spring arm 19. The latter is then swung aside to disengage its lip 21 from the tangs 6, 7, whereupon the connection 10 can be withdrawn from the tangs and the tube sections removed from the brush. In thus disconnecting the lip 21 from the tangs, the elastic arm 19 springs upward sufficiently to allow the lip 21 to clear the tangs.
It will be noted that the fountain or shower attachment comprises two separate tubes, the front ends of which have practically a pivotal connection with the brush stock which permits them to be swung freely toward and from the grooved edge of the stock upon removing the shell 17 and the Y-connection 10. There is therefore no necessity for bending or straining the tubes in applying them to the brush, thus avoiding all liability of breaking them or bend ing them out of their proper shape.
We claim as our invention:
1. A fountain brush comprising a brushstock, separate water-supplying tubes detachably mounted on opposite sides of the brush stock and extending to the front end thereof, said tubes being disconnected at their front ends and terminating at their opposite ends in hollow rearward extensions, and a water supply connection engaging said extensions.
