Patented Mar. 25, 1952 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE This invention relates to animprovedfountain brush for 'tonsorial purposes. and :also relates to novel improvements in fountain brushes of the type adapted for use in scrubbing, cleaning or the-like.
A primary object of this invention is to pro:- vid'e a brush, having. a reservoir or compartment above the" bristles, adapted to retain a supply of powder'or the like material, means being provided to control the dispensing of the powder to the bristles;
This invention consists of other novel combination offelements including a hollow body defining a reservoir, a: brush plate detachably securedto the body in a: closure positio n on the reservoir, and-sl'idably disposed valve means insaid reservoir responsive to exterior manual pressure for controlling the dispensing of the powder in the reservoir throughand to the tufts.
These and ancillary objects, which will become more fully apparent 'upon a perusal ofthe following description, are attained by fthis in-- vention, apreferred embodiment of which is set forth in the following drawings, wherein:
Figure 1 is atopplan' view of this invention; Figure 2 isafbottomrplan viewtof this invention; 1 Figure 3. is. a bottom. plan view, withIthe brush plate and contiguous nuts removed;
Figure 4 is an end elevational view of'this invention ;f
Figure 5 is a longitudinal vertical sectional view taken substantially on the-plane of 'line" 5 -5 of Figure 1 Figure 6 is a transverse sectional view taken substantially on theplane-ofline=66 of Figure 5 lookingin the direction of the arrows:
Figure 7 is a sectional view taken on line-'-'|-l of Figure'-5"'and looking in the direction of the arrows;
Figure 8 is an enlarged elevational view of one of the tufts, depicting the brush plate in sections and illustrating in section the means provided for frictionally retaining the tufts to the brush plate.
In carrying out this invention, there is provided a body section H! of substantially eggshape, which consists of a top l2 and an elliptical side wall l4. A handle l6 extends i'outward- 1y from the body section. A flange I8 is formed adjacent the lower end of the side wall I4 on the interior thereof and is provided with a plurality of spaced openings 20. as seen in Figure 3.
A brush plate 22 configured substantially as the body section I 0 is formed with a plurality of 2;. openings 24' adapted for registry with the open, ings 20. Suitable -securing means, such as set screws 26 are received in theregistered openings for detachably securingthe brush: plate. to the hollowbody-section, so that the same functions as. abottom section for the body. The.- brush plate is provided with a series of depending bosses 28, as seen in Figure 8, within which. are-f'rictionall'y held. the bristles and tufts. 30, medially joined by atransverse securing member such as apiece of wire 'or the like.
The hollow body serves as a. reservoir 32, within which is retained a' quantity of powder or similar material, the same being disposed in the reservoir through an exteriorly threaded op'ening 34, which is provided with a detachable internally threaded cap member 36.
The brush plate 22 is provided with a series of openings 38, arranged in U-shaped fashion, as seen in Figure '7, whereby the powder or similar material may gravitate through and onto the tufts or bristles. In this respect, valve control means, generally designated by the reference character 40' is provided to control the quantity of material dispensed through the dischargeopenings 38 in the brush plate.
The manner of control means 40 comprises a slidably disposed valve plate 42, which is slidably--mounted' on theupper orinner surface of the brush plate 22 and is-provi'ded with a series of spaced discharge openings 44, which are selectively registerable with the discharge. openings 38in the brush plate. The valve plate. 42 is longitudinally moved on the upper surface of the:
In operation, the brush is held and manipulated by the extending handle I6 and the thumb of an operator is disposed on the slide button 58 so that the quantity of material dispensed from the reservoir to the tufts can be easily controlled as the brush is being manipulated. For example, when the brush is in use by a barber in applying powder to the neck of a customer, the tufts are moved across the neck of the customer and the powder is dispensed from the reservoir through the exertion of pressure by the barber upon the slide button 58, which can be controlled by his thumb.
It is to be particularly noted that the brush plate and the valve means are detachably secured to the body section, which is formed integral with the handle section. elements of the device may be easily and conveniently removed for cleaning and sterilization.
Of course, to fill reservoir, it is only necessary to move the cap 36, so that the brush is at all times convenient for use. In embodying this invention for use in other types of brushes, such as scrubbing brushes or the like, wherein steel or relatively rigid tufts are used, the same may be carried out without any material change in the structural formation and elements, as noted above. The utility of this invention would still be inherent therein and the same would be adaptable for many uses.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
1. In a brush comprising a casing defining a material reservoir and having a top wall, depending side walls and an apertured bottom wall, valve plate means for controlling the discharge of the material through the apertures in the bottom wall including an apertured plate slidably superimposed on the bottom wall, an elongated operating arm mounted for sliding movement on the interior of the top wall, guide means for said arm, connecting means between said arm and plate and means extending from the arm and slidably disposed through the top wall for actuating said arm.
2. In a brush comprising a casing defining a material reservoir and having a top wall, depending side walls and an apertured bottom wall, valve means for controlling the discharge of the material through the apertures in the bot- Thus, all of the parts or tom wall including an apertured plate slidably superimposed on the bottom wall, an elongated operating arm mounted for sliding movement on the interior of the top wall, guide means for said arm, connecting means between said arm and plate and a lateral extension on the rear end of the arm positioned through the top wall, and a button member encompassing the outer end of the extension and slidably disposed on the top wall.
3. In a brush comprising a casing defining a material reservoir and having a top wall, depending side walls and an apertured bottom wall, valve means for controlling the discharge of the material through the apertures in the bottom wall including an apertured plate slidably superimposed on the bottom wall, an elongated operating arm mounted for sliding movement on the interior of the top wall, guide means for said arm, connecting means between said arm and plate and means extending from the arm and slidably disposed through the top wall for actuating said arm, said guide means including a pair of longitudinally disposed members extending downwardly from the top wall and laterally spaced apart to receive the arm positioned therebetween.
4. In a brush comprising a casing defining a material reservoir and having a top wall, depending side walls and an apertured bottom wall, valve means for controlling the discharge of the material through the apertures in the bottom wall including an apertured plate slidably superimposed on the bottom wall, an elongated operating arm mounted for sliding movement on the interior of the top wall, guide means for said arm, connecting means between said arm and plate and means, extending from the arm and slidably disposed through the top wall for actuating said arm, and stop means in said casing for limiting reciprocatory'movement of the arm and aligning the apertures in the plate with the apertures in the bottom wall.
