Folding board painting box, the side walls of which have grooves for transport or for storing wet pictures and containers for paints,

Brushes and the like are provided.

Patented in the German Empire on January 26, 1911.

Painters who go on long study trips and paint a lot in the open air have it as one Great disadvantage felt that all the existing boxes do not meet the needs of the Artists who want to paint larger pictures correspond. The paint boxes available are basically only suitable for amateurs who either only have minor wet studies (most of them only a small one), or if several can be accommodated, this only happens at the expense of the size, weight and inconvenience of the box. Also at The stretcher, which is often common on large study trips, is not appropriate; because at A collection of several larger pictures makes the transport cumbersome, and a stretcher frame Neither does it guarantee the safety of the image during transport, since the canvas pierced by sharp objects and otherwise with insufficient Caution can be damaged. As a result, the painter was often forced, especially his to leave valuable larger wet sketches in the hotel while he had to travel on, which has often caused great inconvenience.

To remedy these evils is the purpose of the invention, which is the greatest Space saving, easier and more convenient handling and absolute safety for the Transport of the wet pictures the recording, a large one and various smaller ones wet Studies (possibly several

large studies) and thus enables the artist, his large and small Carrying sketches without any damage or inconvenience, even if you move frequently. For take away "The new box is suitable for several large pictures by removing the actual one Paint box or paint box from one half of the folding board, as this box carries the palette, paints, brushes, etc. Can be easily transported on its own as well as any other paint box in the '45 trade is. The subject matter of the invention can also be used as a painting board Advantages, since all side walls of the folding board can be folded down and therefore not when working are a hindrance.

The invention consists in the combination of a specially built folding board and a palette, brushes, paints, etc. included - ■ ' the paint box, which is placed in the folding board that also serves as a painting board;: £. is.' . '· - ".'

The object of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

The · folding board e is set up so that all side walls d, which are provided with grooves / (Fig. 4) at suitable intervals, can be folded down, allowing freer work and at the same time removing and bringing in the large and small wet ones Images η is made possible without them being damaged. If several large and small wet studies are to be transported at the same time, small boards or cardboard are pushed into both halves of the folding board drawing box into grooves I, on which the large pictures are attached with thumbtacks and the small pictures on the underside.

In one half of the folding board paint box (Fig. I) the box a containing the paints, brushes, palette, etc. rests on a bar c in the lowest groove. The bottom groove carrying the box is so far away from the bottom of the folding board e that the large picture underneath is not damaged when the box is inserted, which is prevented in the same way if the actual paint box is removed and several large wet studies are inserted will.

According to the invention, there is a multi-part intermediate board f, which corresponds to the height of the two, between the two bottom parts e, e, which were connected by hinges in the previous folding boards and therefore only allowed very low side walls of the folding board and the inclusion of only one sketch without a paint box opposite side walls of the hinged board halves e, e corresponds and at the same time forms the back strip of the box in the closed state (Fig. 4 and 6).

The intermediate board f consists, as noted above, of several, expediently at least three, wooden strips that are connected to each other and to the two bottom halves e, e of the folding board by gluing fabric in the manner of the known roller blinds. By arranging this multi-part intermediate board, it has become possible. the folding board with its high silk walls can be folded up without any hinges at all.

pen. The main advantage and novelty of the attachment of the intermediate board is that when the bottom surfaces e, e of the folding board are covered with a large picture (by means of thumbtacks), the necessary compensation when folding the folding board is produced, which without the / attachment of the flexible intermediate board Given the height of the folding side walls, it would hardly be possible without damaging the study, because the picture fastened with the thumbtacks would tear itself away from them or be kinked. This multi-part intermediate board also extends the area for taking large pictures.

On the two outer longitudinal sides of the foldable side walls d there is a guide h, in each of which a dovetail-shaped slide g, suitably made of metal, is stored, which is set when using the folding board for painting in order to serve to stiffen the painting board. The set slides g, g can be used both in the opened and in the folded-down state of the side walls. \ 'The foldable side walls are kept closed in the unfolded, upright position by means of brackets or fastener m. They are rounded at the inside corners for better rotation of the picture and to prevent it from buckling.

The lid b of the in the lowest groove of the _; one half e of the folding board resting, paints, brushes, etc. carrying paint or paint box α serves as a palette, the thumb hole i ' can be closed by a lid slide k to prevent the .Herfallens of paints, tubes and the like.

The number of grooves present in the side walls, the dimensions and materials can of course be changed depending on the needs of each artist can also be used instead of one pallet. Further can be any device for closing and carrying the entire device, as well as the actual paint box.

It can be seen that the new folding board painting box enables the artist to easily be on a hike for a long time and _> to carry all painting utensils and finished wet pictures with him-. By taking along a reserve folding board of the type described, without an actual paint box, the artist has it in his hand to carry many large and small wet pictures with him.
