Application June 26, 1950, Serial No. 170,309
6 Claims. (Cl. 131) This invention relates to a paste wax applying device, particularly for applying wax in paste form to floors prior to the polishing operation.
Several practicable devices have been developed for applying liquid wax to floors, the problems involved being relatively simple because of the liquid form of the polishing material. So far as I am aware, no practicable means has been developed for applying wax in paste form to floors, the problems involved being substantially different and much more difficult to solve. For example, where liquid wax can be dripped on a polish applying fabric or other porous medium, such means will not operate properly with paste wax, which will not flow through a merely porous medium unless the wax is melted. For this reason, it is the common practice in the commercial finishing of floors as well as the practice of .housewives to apply paste wax by hand and spread it over a floor.
An important object of the present invention is to provide a novel and easily operated device for directly and smoothly applying paste wax to a floor, after which the wax is permitted to dry for a predetermined length of time prior to polishing, the device being capable of efiicient use through the operation of a relatively long handle, thus eliminating the necessity for the operators having to apply the wax by hand.
A further object is to provide such a device wherein the wax applying means per se permits the free fiow of paste wax directly to the floor surface and which operates efiiciently to spread the wax uniformly over the floor surface.
A further object is to provide such a device which employs directly as one of its operating elements the conventional can in which paste wax is purchased from stores, it being necessary merely to cut away both extremities of the can to form the latter into a cylinder for use with the present mechanism.
A further object is to provide a paste wax applicator employing a plurality of applicating elements of such nature and such arrangement relative to each other as to facilitate both the application and the uniform spreadin of the wax.
A further object is to provide such a device wherein the applying elements are adapted to last in use over substantial periods or" time, but wherein they are capable of easy replacement.
A further object is to provide a novel paste wax applicator wherein the conventional can containing the wax not only is adapted to be used as a component part of the mechanism, but wherein the can may be placed in position and removed with the greatest possible ease.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent during the course of the following description.
In the drawing, 1 have shown one embodiment of the invention. in this showing,
Figure l is a perspective view of the device, the handle being broken away,
Fate's-tied July 12, 1955 Figure 2 is a central vertical sectional view through the device, taken longitudinally thereof,
Figure 3 is a bottom plan view of the device, parts being broken away, and
Figure 4 is a fragmentary detail sectional view on line 4--4 of Figure 1.-
Referring to Figure l, the numeral 10 designates the base of the device, preferably in the form of a wooden block having a circular opening 11 cut in the center thereof for a purpose to be described. Adjacent opposite edges, the body 10 is provided with upstanding side walls 12, also preferably formed of wood and secured to the base or body 10 in any desired manner.
The underside of the base 10 is provided with a plurality of spaced grooves 14, parallel to each other and preferably extending throughout the width of the base 10. Each of these grooves is adapted to receive a part of a wax applying element each of which is indicated as a whole by the numeral 15. Each of these elements comprises a channeled metal body'16 and a paste spreading element 17 arranged in the channel, the longitudinal edges of the channels being turned inwardly as at 18 to clamp the elements 17 in position. The elements 17 may be made of any suitable material, and preferably of relatively thick felt. The paste applying elements may be secured with respect to the base 16 in any suitable manner. For example, each end of each channel 16 may be provided with an upturned lip 20 secured to the edge of the base 10 near the bottom thereof by a suitable screw 21. The base 10 is surrounded throughout at least three sides there of with a felt bumper 24, the ends of which'may be secured against one side of the base 10 in the position shown in Figure 3. Throughout the remaining three sides of the body 10, the bumper 24 is preferably secured to such edges of the base 10 near the top thereof, the lower edge portion of the bumper being left free of the base at least on the opposite sides of the latter to which the lips 20 are secured. Thus access may be had to the screws 21 for the removal and replacement of the spreading units 15.
Above the base 10 is adapted to be arranged a cylinder containing a body of paste wax 31. In practice, the cylinder 30 will be the body of the tin container in which paste wax commonly is sold. Such container will have its two extremities cut therefrom, for example by means of readily available mechanical can openers which cut around a can inwardly of an end bead thereof. When the paste can is thus opened, the body of the can will be cylindrical from end to end and will be used as the cylinder 30. The opening 11 in the base is made or the size to receive a paste can of standard size. While the can could be supported above the base 19 in communication withthe opening 11, it is preferred that it be of such size as to receive the bottom of the cylinder 30 as shown in Figure 2, the lower end of the cylinder being supported on all of the channels 16 except the end channels as viewed in Figure 2.
A follower is operable in the cylinder 30 to displace paste wax therefrom. This follower may be of any desired construction and includes a preferable felt packing 36 to wipe down the sides of the cylinder 30 as paste is displaced therefrom. The follower includes a top plate 37 apertured as at 38 to receive the reduced lower end 39 of a screw stem 40 threaded in a cross member 41. This cross member engages the top edges of the uprights 12, the latter carrying screws 42 on which are threaded nuts 43, and preferably wing nuts as shown in Figure l. The screws 42 extend through suitable apertures in the cross member 21, one of these apertures being a slot 44 opening through the edge of the cross member 41, as shown in Figure .1, for a purpose to be described. The threaded 3. stem is provided at its upper end with an operating handle 45.
As previously stated, the present device is of such character that it can be operated by a long handle, thus eliminating the necessity for the operators having to work on hands and knees. To this end, the device is provided with a handle 48 preferably of substantial length and secured at its lower end as at 49 to yoke members 50, the lower ends of which are secured as at 51 to the outer faces of the uprights 12..
Operation When the device is to be used, a can of paste wax has the ends cut therefrom adjacent the beads of the can. The paste is in solid form,'of course, and will remain in the can until forced therefrom under pressure, as described below. Both wing nuts 43 are loosened, and with the stem 4%) turned to its uppermost position with the lower extremity of the threads of the stem adjacent the cross member 41, such cross member may be swung out of position pivoting on the screw 42 opposite the slot 44. The can or cylinder 30 is then inserted in position in the opening 11, whereupon the follower 35 is placed in the cylinder 30 on the top of the wax therein. The cross member 41 is then swung back to normal position, the reduced stem end 39 inserted in the opening 38, and the wing nuts 43 both tightened.
The operator will now turn the handle 45 to lower the stem 40 and force the follower 35 downwardly. This operation is carried on until a sufiicient initial quantity of wax is available in contact with the floor surface. The operator, grasping the upper end of the handle 48, then moves the device over the floor, the handle 45 being given a turn from time to time to force more paste wax into contact with the floor surface. The base is preferably square or rectangular, thus permitting the device to be moved into corners of a room to apply paste wax throughout the floor area. After the entire floor surface has been covered, the wax is permitted to dry for a predetermined length of time, usually at least twenty minutes, whereupon suitable buffing means is employed for polishing the wax.
Particular attention is invited to the fact that the ap plicator means of the present device comprises a plurality of spaced units, and the spaces between such units permit the wax in relatively thick paste form to be forced into direct contact with the floor. The wax is not applied by the felt elements 17, but rather through the action of the follower 35, the felt members serving rather to spread the wax evenly over the floor surface. It will be noted in Figure 2 that the units are preferably substantial in number and that two of these units are arranged beyond the limits of the cylinder 3 Thus wax forced fromthe limitsof the can or cylinder 30 at opposite sides thereof adjacent the remote units 15 will be contacted by the felts 17 of such units to be evenly spread over the floor surface. The felt units 17 last through substantial periods of time, and when they are too badly worn for further use,
they readily may be replaced. This may be done merely by lifting the lower edges of the bumper 24 at opposite I sides of the base It to provide access to the screws 21.
associated channels 16 due to the downward pressure exerted by the follower 35. The screws 21, however, do
not absorb lateral horizontal forces due to movement of the device 'over the floor.
.lips 20 against opposite edges of the base it). .This fact,
together with the weight of the device, prevents any rocking movement of the units 15 or any displacement of such units in the operation of the device.
Accordingly, it will be apparent that the present device is extremely simple in operation and provides for the eificient application of paste wax to a floor surface and the uniform spreading of the wax over such surface. The units 15 are simple in construction and relatively cheap to manufacture. These units last for long periods of time and are capable of easy replacement at a moderate cost. It is unnecessary to use any special container as the cylinder 30, and it is unnecessary to use any special securing means for fixing such cylinder in position. This cylinder is maintained in position merely through its reception in the opening 11, and the cylinder cannot be displaced vertically since its upward movement is limited by the cross member 41.
When a cylinder 30 is empty, a new container may be placed in position merely by screwing the stem 4! upwardly, loosening the wing nuts 43, swinging the cross member out of alignment with the cylinder 30, and lifting the cylinder 38 and replacing it with a fresh cylinder. When a container is empty, the follower 35 will be at the bottom thereof, and after the empty can is removed from the device, the follower may be pushed from the bottom of the can. The follower is then placed in the top of a fresh can, which is inserted in the device in the manner described above.
