STATES GEORGE J. WOHLTMAN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
BRUSH-=CUP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 540,129, dated May 28, 1895. Application filed January 25, 1895. Serial No. 536,269. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern..-
Be it known that I, GEORGE J. WOHLTMAN, of New York city, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Brush-Cup, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to improvements in devices for holding brushes and in particular to a device for holding a brush which is used in connection with a copying book.
The object of my invention is to produce a simple cup into which the brush may be conveniently dipped to moisten the brush, and on which the brush may be laid, when not in use, in such a manner that it will drain into the cup and will not wet surrounding objects.
To these ends my invention consists of certain features of construction and combinations of parts, which will be hereinafter described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar figures of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the cup embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal vertical section of the cup, and Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-section of the cup.
The cup 10, is of a generally rectangular shape and is preferably oblong. It is flat on the bottom and has flaring sides and ends. The cup is provided .with a grating 11 which extends nearly its entire length, and which has side rails 12 resting on brackets 13 in the cup. One end of the rails 12 is inclined upward, as shown at 14, to meet the cover 15 which extends across one end of the cup. As these upturned ends bear against the under side of the cover, their friction thereon will the grating when a brush is drawn over it in the direction of the upturned ends.
The cross bars of the grating do not extend quite the full length of the rails 12, and thus a space or slot 16 is left between the ends of the grating and the cover 15, so that the brush may be conveniently dipped into the water in the cup. When the brush is withdrawn it may be drawn across the end bar of the grating, so as to remove the superfluous water, and after the brush is used it is laid flat on the grating so that the water which drains from it may drop into the cup.
In order that the brush may lie Hat on the grating the cup has a notch 10 at one end to receive the brush handle.
The brush may be left lying on the cup so that it is always convenient for use.
The grating is removable and consequently the cup may be easily cleaned.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- As an improved article of manufacture, a brush cup open at its top for a greater portion of its length, a cover extended over one end of the cup, a grating located in the open portion of the cup below the plane of the cover, and having side rails providedwith upturned ends, which bear frictionally against the under side of the coverand'serve to hold the grating from longitudinal movement when a brush is drawn over it in the direction of said upturned ends, substantially as specified.
