Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a container for receiving used brushes, consisting of a kettle, pot or bucket-shaped receiving part and a lid sealingly closing it.
  • a certain number of different brushes is usually required.
  • the number of brushes varies depending on the different works and the number of different colors.
  • the brushes are used at different intervals. If there are long intervals, the brushes are cleaned in solvent and then washed and dried. For shorter intervals of a few minutes or hours, the brushes are placed in containers with solvents so that they are immediately ready for use again. A prerequisite for readiness for use is that the brushes contain no foreign color. Therefore, almost every brush is placed in a single container. Accordingly, at the workplaces of the painters, in workshops or on buildings, there are often a lot of open containers with brushes. This requires a lot of solvent, which evaporates.
  • US-PS 3527341 shows a pot with a high lid, which has hooks on the inside for hanging the brushes.
  • the pot is filled with a solvent. If the lid with the attached brushes is placed on the pot, the brushes hang in the solvent.
  • the disadvantage of this solution is that when the lid is kept floating, the brushes have to be hung or removed from the poorly accessible hooks.
  • the inventor recognized these problems and set himself the task of creating a container for holding used brushes, in which the disadvantages described above are eliminated.
  • the flat lid with attached column, with star-shaped arms and a lower stand organ has the advantage that a simple opening and lifting of the lid allows a brush to be removed or attached quickly. This is particularly advantageous if the container contains a volatile agent to prevent the paint from drying, because then as little of the evaporated agent as possible is lost! If the container has to be cleaned or if liquid has to be refilled, it is advantageous that the column is equipped with stand organs, together with the lid and the attached brushes, can be removed from the container and simply put down.
  • a non-volatile liquid into which the bristles of the brushes are immersed, it is advantageous if the standing members can be brought into engagement with the closing members on the upper inner edge of the container. The brushes are then easily accessible and can drip into the container.
  • the container used for receiving and storing that is to say unpurified brush with fresh paint is used, consists of a boiler -, cup- or bucket-shaped receiving part and a lid or this final closure.
  • the receiving part is referred to as boiler 1 for the sake of simplicity.
  • the boiler 1 is shown cylindrical in the example shown, but other shapes can of course also be considered.
  • the boiler 1 is closed by a lid 2.
  • a hanging member 3 for the unpurified brush is attached to the lid 2.
  • the suspension element consists of a column 4 attached to the cover 2, from which a plurality of arms 5 protrude in a star shape.
  • the arms 5 are formed by two metal rods passing through the column 4 perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
  • the number of arms is arbitrary, but care must be taken to ensure that the brushes do not come too close to one another and contaminate one another.
  • the column 4 also acts as a separation, so that brushes on opposite arms do not touch each other.
  • pillar 4 has other functions.
  • a clearly visible identification mark 6 can be arranged on the column 4, which indicates the maximum permissible brush length, so that the brush does not hang with the bristles in the solvent, or the column length itself indicates this measure.
  • the column can also correspond to the boiler depth and thus serve as an indicator of the solvent level.
  • the column 4 with a stand or foot so that the lid with the brushes suspended from the arms can be placed anywhere and the boiler can be cleaned and / or the brushes can be checked.
  • the stand can also serve as a length indicator for the brush.
  • closing members 7 in the form of fingers are attached to the underside thereof, which engage in members 8 on the inner wall of the boiler 1.
  • the organs 8, as shown in detail in FIG. 2a, consist of a wall thickening in the form of a plate 9 with a milled or punched guide groove 10, which has an approximately oblique and an approximately flat part, the first of which increases the closing pressure and the second serves as a backup.
  • a tab 11 on the cover 2 and one on the boiler 1 are exactly congruent one above the other in the closed state of the container, so that a padlock can be hung through holes 12 in the tabs 11. This is a not insignificant detail on the construction sites accessible to many people.
  • the large eyelet 13 on the boiler 1 serves the same purpose, namely the anti-theft device, so that the boiler can be chained somewhere.
  • a grid 14 can be attached either in the boiler 1 or on the column 4.
  • the grid 14 is provided with legs 15 and stands loosely in the boiler 1.
