BRUSH SUPPORT.
Application filed Ju1y'14, 19a-5, seria1-No.4"3j5'45.
To all who/mt mug/concern:
Be it known that I, Fnnnnnrorr G. Dinkn, a citizen of the United States,"and ares'ident of Johnson City, county 'of Broome, land State of New York, have 'inventedicertain new and 'useful Improvements in a 'Brush Support, of which the following is a description, reference being had lto the accompanying drawing, which forms a part ot this specilication.
My invention relates to brush holders and is yparticularly 4'adaptable Vto use with paint brushes, lfor reasons to be desciibed, a1- though `it'is--to be understood that'the'invention-s not'limitedtosuch useand is ot wide application and adapted for use with practically all types of brushes, brooms, mops, stirring rods, iladles, and analogous devices.
The principal object 'of imy invention vis to vprovidea brush iholder or support which is provided with means for securing Pthe same'upon a ves'selsuch as apaintbucket in such a manner that when Ithe brush -is supported in Vthe holder, l'the saine lis held in proper -position for draining 'back into lthe bucket.
Another object is to provide fa novel vand ingenious clamping means vfor this "sup'port.
A still further object is `'to "provide a removable brush securing element Iwhereby a plurality of such elements may be used thereby readily accommodating the `holder to `any size of brush desired, or necessary.
Another object is'to construct Vthedevice simply and cheaply and in such nian'nerfthat it will take Vup little space on the bucketor vessel, and which maybe 'readily detached therefrom.
Many other objectsand advantages in details oi" construction and operation will be apparent as the description proceeds reference being had to the accompanying drawing -wlie'rein'like reference 'numerals indicate like parts.
`In the drawing Figure 1 is 'a side view, partly in section, showing my improved support or brush holder mounted in operative jposition upon a bucket or vessel. Themanner of unclamping the support from the vessel is also illustrated in` dotted lines.
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the'brush holder with the brush clamping jaws removed.
Figure 3 is a front view of the holder showing f'cl'early the pivoted clamping meansand the socket for receiving the brush holding jaws.
Figures '11, 5 and 6 alre'details` of the brush 'holding aws, removed from the holder and illustrating the 'manner in which the brushes ot various "sizes are vaccommodated by my `improved holder. Y
As illustrated, my invention is .herein shown Aand described as being constructed chiefiy'oif'he'avy bent wire. Itis to be understood'ho'weverthat thisfconstruction is merely ienuiiciative- `only and that the ydevice `may be constructed-oi metal or any other suitable material, lending itself to such construction.
.In the'enibodimeut illustrated, my 'invention comprises a U-shafped member' 1, the 'legs 2 and 3 of which eiitend tupwardly in fpracticallythe s'ameplane, and arefthen bent outwardly, parallel and at right angles to said :legales-at i and 5to a'point which may be determined bythe size or' the .holder to be usedidepending ofcourse upon the type and size oit brush to be held.v The legs are then turned upward andbackwardly in a' plane parallel to that occupiedby vthe members 4C and 5, as indicatedjat and 7.
The leg 'portions fand 7-are parallel'and eXtend back gkbeyond the plane occupied by the 1U-shaped`portion 1,-and are then turned 'downwardly 'asfat Sand 9 Where the free ends thereof -are then turned `inwardly towardseachother asiat '10 and 1'1, 'forming a Vpivot for the lclamping member 12 provided with the sleeve or other suitably formed vhinge Amember A13.
Clamping and supporting member 12 is pre'lerably formed'o'f sheetmetal and is provided ne'ar its lower end with parallelclampfing flanges 14 and 15. The distance from the pivot 18 to theclampin'g-edges of the 'flanges 14C and 15 is'preferably slightly greater than the distance between the pivot 13 and the legs 2 and 3 ofthe U-shaped member 1, in- Oludingthe thickness ofthe bucket or other vessel upon which the holder is to be mount'ed. This fact together with the resilience imparted to the whole structure by the construction just described, permits a vtight clamping action between the clamping edges of the flanges 14 and 15 and the side wall 16 of the paint bucket or other vessel 17. rl"he manner of this clamping` action is clearly illustrated in Figure 1, wherein it will be noted that upon attaching or detaching the support to or from the vessel 17, the clamping nember 12 is first rocked on its pivot 13 to the position shown in dotted lines in Figure 1, whereupon the U-shaped member 1 may be readily slipped over the edge of the vessel.
'lhe upper free end of the clamping 1neinber 12 is provided with inwardly turned flanges 1S and 19, forming a socket toreceive the closed end of a substantially U- shaped, resilient brush holder, illustrated in Figures Ll, and 6.
l do not limit myself to any particular s iape or construction of this resilient brush holder, for it willl be understood that many varieties and types thereof can be readily applied to the supporting and clamping device. For illustrative purposes, however. l have shown a resilient brush gripper made of flat lear spring material and comprising the U- shaped portion 2O for engagement Within the socket formed by the flanges 18 and 19. 'lhe legs 21 and 22 of the brush holder or gripper are then carried upwardly a substantial distance, spreading outwardly to increase the resilience thereof, and then turned inwardly and downwardly as at 23 and 2l, the free ends thereof being formed to receive a brush handle or any other device which it may be desired to grip with my support. lt will be noted with reference to Figures and 6 that the legs 25 and 26 and 27 and 28 may be formed outwardly to a greater degree if it is desired to provide for a larger Iorush handle.
'.lhis brush gripping element is easily removable from the clamping member' 12 by simply compressing the side arms of the holder and withdrawing the U-shaped portion from the soclret in the member 12.
lt will be noted that the horizontal portions 6 and 7 of the supporting member provide a rest for the brush 29 and as the resilient brush gripping member is higher than the members 6 and 7, it will be seen that the tendency of the brush so held is to drain back into the bucket or vessel. The advantages of such a construction will be obvious to those skilled in the art.
r1`he operation of my invention is as follevi's: 1t being desired to mount. the supporting device on a paint bucket or other vessel the operator first pivots the clamping member 12 backwardly as shown in dotted lines in Figure 1, and slips the U-shaped member 1 over the edge of one side of the vessel. then roclrs the member 12 back upwardly on its pivot whereupon the clamping edges of the flanges 111 and 15 will come into engagement with the side wall of the vessel. Due to the resiliency of the structure, this clamping action is sufficient to securely hold the supporting device in rigid and ready position upon the edge of the bucket. The handle of a brush or other instrument may then be forced in between the arms 23 and 2A of the resilient brush gripping member, the wide portion of the brush then being permitted to rest upon the end of the members 6 and Y .vhereby the brush may drain back into the vessel. lf it is desired to secure and support a larger brush, it is merely necessary te remove the resilient brush gripper and replace it with one better suited for the particular sir/1e being used, such as illustrated in llifjures i and (i.
f desired, of course, the entire supporting and clamping member can be readily removed from the. vessel.
As heretofore stated, l do not limit myself to the exact structure herein shown and describe/t., the same being the preferred embodiment, other than by the appended claims.
l claim:
1. A brush holder comprising a supporting element, means pivoted to said support for clamping the same to a vessel, said clamping means carrying removable brush gripping means.
2. A brush holder comprising a resilient supporting element, means pivoted to said support for clamping the same to a vessel, said clamping means carrying removable resilient brush gripping means.
