tion.
This invention relates to shoe polishing brushes, and more particularly to rotary brushes ada ted to be operated by an elec: tric motor, t he'object bem to provide a series of brushes so arranged on a shaft that any oneof the brushes can be rotated by 0 crating a bar so,that the shoes can be c eaned and olished'.
- Another 0 ject ofmy invention is to provide very novel means for connecting the shaft carrying the brushes to the flexible shaft connected to the motor, so that they can be easily and quickly thrown in and out of engagement with, each other.
With these and other objects in view, the
invention consists in the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described and pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings forming a part i t s speoificationz-Figure 1 is a side View ofmy improved brush. Fig. 2 isan end view of the brush. Fig. 3 is a section through the grooved collar showing the operatin lever in position. Fig. 4 is a side elevationzil view of the frame carrying the back shaft and flexible shaft, showing the manner of connecting the two. Fl 5 is a plan view of one of the brushes art y broken away showi1i the manner 0 connecting thebrush to the s eeve Referring to the drawin s A indicates t'lT'! frame of a tube A provider with elbows A at its end, in which are secured tubes A A of different length.
Secured 0n the end pf the shorter tube A i a collar B carrying a journal box formed of s lwto sections connected together by screws in the ordinary manner. The stem of. a T- codpling (l is secured on the end of the longer tube A in which are secured the an led ends Ora wh n ofdiflerent length. The longer tube. E carries a journal box F at its end formed of two sections connected tc ether by screws. Mounted .in the journal boxes B and F of the frame, is ashaft G provided with aloosely mounted handle H at one end, and a fixed toothed-clutch wheel l at the other end. Pivoted on the end of thelshorter tube boxes, in which is mounted a flexible shaft K i which is adapted to be connected to an elec-' tric motor for operating the same.
.A handle "K is loosely mounted on'the shaft K to one side of the journal box 1, and a toothed clutch-wheel K is fixed on the end of the shaft adapted to engage the, clutch wheel I on the end of the shai't'G and rotate the same. It will be readily seen that the clutch wheel can be readily swung in and out of engagement with the clutch wheel I by the handle as desired. v
Loosely mounted on the shaft G is a coarse brush ll adapted to clean the shoes, a fine brush M for polishing the shoes, and a buffer wheel N for giving the shoes a finer polish. The periphery of the brushes and buffer-wheel are formed tapering and the brush L is formed smaller and wider than the brush M and the brush M is formed smaller than the bufferwheel so that the surface of the brush and buffer-wheel will be parallel with the tube A of the frame.
Secured to one side of the brushes and butler-wheel by screws are the aportured flanges of grooved-sleeves L, M, N, for the purpose hereinafter described. Secured to the other side of the brushes and buffer- -wheel are toothed clutch-wheels L NP and N 2 which are adapted to engage the toothed clutch-wheels, O, P and Q formed on the shaft. Spring actuated levers R, S and T are mount-ed on )ins in slots formed in the tube A provide with enlarged lower ends R, S and T having curved notches formed in their ends adapted to lit in the grooves of the sleeves L, M and N, res )ectively, so
that the clt1tch-wl1eels carried y the brush and buffer can be. tlnown into enga 'emeut wi h he clutch-wheels fixed on the shaft as readily seen that I'have provided a frame with a series of brushes so arranged that by simply pressin on a lever, the briishdesired to be used wil be rotated so that the shoe can be cleaned and polished in a very few minutes withaverylittle work. i 1 V aving thus fully described my invention, wha tl claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. The combination with a frame, of a shaft 'mounted in said frame provided with brushes, a clutch'wheel secured on one end of said shaft, an arm pivoted to said frame carrying a power shaft, and a clutch wheel secured 'on the end of said shaft adapted to;en gage the clutch wheel on the shaft carrying the brushes; 1
2. The combination with a frame having a shaft loosely mounted thereon, provided {with a clutch-Wheel at one end, brushes i mounted on said shaft and a flexible shaft pivotally connected to said frame provided with a clutch wheel at its end adapted to be thrown into engagement with the clutchwheel on. the shaft carrying the brushes for the purpose described.
3 The combination with a frame provided with journal-boxes, of a shaft mounted in said ,boxes provided with spaced clutch- Wheels, brushes loosely mounted on said shaft provided with clutch-wheels,.a clutchwheel secured on one end of the shaft, a flexible shaft pivotally connected to said frame provided with a clutch-wheel adapted to engage said clutch-wheel on the shaft and means for throwing the clutch-wheels of the brushes into engagement with the clutlg Wheels of the shaft,for the purpose descrlbe 4 The combination with a frame provider v with journal-boxes, of a shaft loosely mount-.
(provided with means for operatlng said shaft, for the purpose described.
5. The combination with a frame provided I with journal-boxes, of a shaft mounted in said boxes provided with a clutch-wheel at one end, an arm pivoted to said frame rovided with, a journal-box, a flexible s aft mounted in said box provided with a clutchwheel adapted to engage the clutch-wheel of the shaft, and brushes mounted on said shaft,
for the purpose described. v
