COIIILBINED BRUSH AND CLEANING-BOD.
Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed February 24, 1908. Serial No. 417,559.
"Patented Aug." 2, 1910.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Fnnonmc I. JOHN- soN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Fitchburg, in' the county of Worcester and Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Brush and Cleaning- Rod, of which the following is a specification, accompanied by drawings forming a part of the same, in which- Fi e 1 is a side view of my improved cleaning rod. Fig. 2 is the same with a cleaning cloth attached. Fig. 3 is a. perspective view of a revolver barrel detached, showing the position of my cleaning rod in use.
Similar reference figures refer to similar parts in the different views. My invention relates to an improved cleaning rod for pistols and other firearms in which various cleaning implements are combined in a single rod, and 1t consists in the construction and arrangement of parts as hereinafter described and pointed out in the annexed claims.
Referring to the accompanyin drawings 1 is a rod referably of twiste wire, but constructed of any material possessing suflicient' rigidity and of the proper diameter to be inserted in the barrel of the firearm tobe cleaned. I have shown a cleaning rod arranged for pistols and revolvers and so comparatively short, but it is obvious that the length of the'cleaning rod may. be arranged to correspond with the length of barrel in any firearm for which the cleaning rod is designed. Near one end 2 of the rod 1 isva brush 3 arranged concentric with and at right angles to the rod 1,.as is usual in cleaning rods as at present constructed. Near the center of the rod a loop or holder 4 is constructed in the rod 1 arran ed to receive a cleaning cloth or swab 5, which is inserted in the barrel to .com-
plete the cleaning process, and by means of which oil or similar substance may be applied to the interior ofthe barrel. I am aware that similar loops have been formed in the end of a cleaning rod for a similar purpose, but so far as I am aware the location of the loop near the center of the cleaning rod is entirely novel. In this position the cleaning swab may be either pushed or pulled through the barrel, by
' alternate applications to the ends of the rod while the swab is within the barrel. In this way the entire manipulation of the'swab .in both directions is accomplished by either a pushing or ulling strain, the latter ens abling a flexib e rod to be used which may be rolled or folded in a small compass.
In the ordinary construction of the rod a pushing strain must be applied in one direction and for. movement in the opposite direction the rod must be pulled backward.
As the cleaning and oiling of the interiorof the barrel is most thorough when the swab approximately fills the barrel and is a tight fit therein, the advantages of providing for the movement of the swab in both directions by a pushing strain areapparent. As in my improved cleaning rod the swab .5 and brush 3 are arranged upon the same rod, the change in position of the swab, also affords a handle end 6 free from dirt orgrease opposite the brush end- 2. I pro vide the handle end 6 with a loop 7 and the.
brush end with a smaller loop 8. In. the
In the use of myimproved cleaning rod the brush 3 is used to clean the barrel in the usual manner. A cleaning cloth or swab is placed in the loopl and inserted in the barrel, the rod being held by the handle end 6. The swab isreciprocated in the barrel by force applied u on either end of the cleaning rod to comp etc the cleaning.
Oil may be applied by the swabin a similar manner. To clean and oil restricted portions of the mechanism of the firearm, the
cleaning rod 'is held by the handle end 6, a swab is placed in the loop 7, thus enabling me to reach other portions of the mechanism and to clean and oil them by the use of the same cleaning rod. The combination of these various instrumentalities in-one rod affords a complete cleaning apparatus for all parts of the firearms.
I claim,
1. A rigid cleaning rod, having loops at both ends and at the center of the rod, said loops arranged for the insertion of a cleanthe rod to form loops. for detachably' attaching'e cleaning cloth to said rod, and a brush attached near one end of isaid rod within the loop.
