J ohn The invention relates to an'oil or water paint applicator, "-and moree'specially to an applyin roller or the like for pa int varnish, enamel, or other liquid cdating substances? I'heprimary object of the-inventionis the provision of a device of this characten-wherein oil, water paints,- varnishes,- enamels or other liquid coating substances or "materials, can be stored within' an applying roller 'kifithe device; such roller-thus forming a fountain orself-dispensing device for the substances or materials, so that they can bedi rectly delivered to a surface therefrom, thus saving time in the; application thereof, and with ease. and dispatch. 5 Another object of the, invention is the provision of a device'of this 'character,"wherein the substances or materials will be applied by a rolling action, thus avoiding streaks, as is the case in applying such substances or materials with a brush or other stroke implement, the substances or materials being applied evenly and smoothly with minimum exertion on the part of the user or operatorof the device.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character, wherein it is of novel construction, and unique in assembly, it being hand operated and is readily and easily manipulated.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a device of this character, which is simple in construction, thoroughly reliable and efficient in service, strong, durable, compact, ossessed of few parts, and inexpensive to manufacture.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists in the features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which discloses the preferred embodiment of the invention, and pointed out in the claim hereunto appended.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is an elevational view, artly in longitudinal section, of the device constructed in accordance with the invention;
Figure 2 is an elevational view of the device with part of the fabric covering shown on the roller removed;
Figure 3 is an end view taken from line 3-3 of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on the line 44 of Figure 1 looking in the direction of the arrows;
Figure 5 is a fragmentary elevation, partly fo FIcE broken away, ofa couplingpie'ce for the extension of the handle of the device. v
the drawing.- I
Referring to-the-drawing'infdetail, the devicei constituting the present invention, comprises-- cylindrical or tubiform body providing a hollow! roller III, in this instancehaving a-permanentlyclosed end II, while the other end opposite the; latter is of the closure type, its closure being, a, detachable or separable 'end closure head I2, andis threaded at I3 intoathe roller llLtalthough it ma be otherwise attached,- the threaded connec-% tion being best seen in Figure '1 oft-the d w On removal of the head l2 from the: roller ,III the latter is opened for the filling thereof with a determined quantity of liquid substance or material for the coating of a surface by application direct from the said roller through rolling action of the same thereon.
The permanently closed end II is formed with an inner centrally located bearing socket or seat I4 for an axle I5, rotatably supported in the said roller I0 and this axle I5 is carried through a stufiing .box or packing gland I6 countersunk centrally in the head I2, it being held against displacement longitudinally on the axle I5 by stops I1 and I8, respectively, both outside and inside of the roller and engaged or anchored on the axle, as best seen in Figure 1 of the drawing.
The axle I5 has union with a cranked or elbowed arm I9, having a .detachably fitted terminal handle or hand grip 20, which by the arm I9 locates it approximatel at the transverse center of the roller I0 and protruded laterally outward ly therefrom in required spaced relation to its outer periphery. The arm I9 is adapted for lengthening at its handle or grip carrying end by a coupling extension piece 2 I, shown in Figure 5 of the drawing. The coupling sleeve for this piece 2| is identified at 22, and such extension piece may be of any selected or required length.
Covering th roller I0 exteriorly thereof is a piled absorbent fabric cover 23 adapted to be impregnated or permeated With the content of the roller II), which is formed on its outer surface with spaced right and left hand spiral grooves 24 pierced or intersected by spaced outlet orifices or vents 25, so that the content within the hollow 26 of the roller I0 can be delivered to the cover 23, whence it can be transferred therefrom to a surface to be coated by painting or otherwise, through roller action of the device, without the use of an ordinary paint brush or the like. This material from leaking out or dripping, as the latter being the case with a paint brush, and in this manner assuring a clean job.
It is preferable to construct the closed end of the roller of a slightly greater diameter than the remaining portion of the body of the latter,
thus providing a bearing for the vabsorbent:cover,
and the removable end, being constructed in a similar manner, so as to provide a bearing for the said cover, the purpose being additionally to prevent drippingof thelcontained liquid and to effect the keeping of the'cover in wearing position on the said roller.
-What is claimed is:
A paint applicator comprising a tubular roller having an end wall closing one end thereof, a detachable filler head threadedly mounted in the other end of said tubular roller whereby said tubular roller may be filled with'surface coating material, a bearing socket centrally positioned in said end wall and opening toward said filler head, an axle journalled in said filler head and extending axially in said tubularroller, said axle positioned with the inner end thereof rotatably mounted in said bearing sooket'of th end wall whereby the tubular roller is supported for rotation on said axle, an arm extending laterally from the outer end of said axle and at substantially right angles thereto, a rod extending laterally from said arm and substantially parallel to said axle, a second rod extended from the end of said rod and positioned at substantially right angles thereto, said rods, arm and axle positioned in a common plane, a handle grip secured to said second rod, a pile fabric sleeve mounted on said tubular roller periphery, a plurality of oppositely directed intersecting spiral grooves formed on the outside-periphery of said tubular roller, said tubular roller having vent openings therethrough positioned at the intersections of said grooves whereby the fluid contents from within the roller are fed to said grooves and distributed lengthwise of" said roller for absorption by said fabric sleeve to thereby coat a surface upon contact thereof with said sleeve and rotation of the tubular member.
