Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a support device for the cylindrical sleeve of a paint roller.
  • the paint rollers known to date generally have a T-shape and comprise a cylindrical sleeve mounted in free rotation between flanges on a stirrup, generally a bent metal wire equipped with a handle at its end.
  • rollers are very bulky, especially when they are offered for sale on a shelf where they are generally suspended from a rod by an orifice made at the end of the handle.
  • the present invention aims to remedy this drawback by proposing a support device for a paint roller which, apart from being very compact when exposed to the sale, also has the advantage of being lower manufacturing costs and less weight than existing devices.
  • the device for supporting a paint roller according to the invention is essentially characterized in that it comes entirely from injection molding of a plastic material, and in that the handle is divided lengthwise in half. solidary parts, articulated on the part intended to support said cylindrical sleeve.
  • Such a support can thus be presented for sale with the two integral parts of the handle positioned in the extension of one another, along the stirrup intended to support the cylindrical sleeve, parallel to the latter, allowing a significant gain in space on a shelf.
  • a cylindrical sleeve support, not shown, of a paint roller device according to the invention produced by injection molding of a plastic material of the type polypropylene, has two separate parts, a substantially cylindrical handle 1 divided into two semi-cylindrical parts 2 and 3, and a stirrup 4 in the form of a chute comprising at each of its ends a flange 40 provided with means for fixing the sleeve.
  • the handle 1 consisting of the bringing together of the two parts 2 and 3, comprises a base 10 of square section, housing a cavity 11 of also square shape.
  • Parts 2 and 3 of the handle 1 are secured to the stirrup 4 on a square stud 41 positioned in the center of the stirrup 4, by means of two bridges, respectively 42 and 43, coming from molding, which allow pivoting at 90 ° to parts 2 and 3, allowing them to pass from a position parallel to a position perpendicular to the stirrup 4, and thus to constitute the handle 1, the joining together of the two parts 2 and 3 being produced by known latching means, not shown.
  • a second stud 44 also of square section, projecting at the center of stud 41, and of external dimensions equal to the internal dimensions of the cavity 11 of the handle 1, is tightly wrapped by the base 10 of the handle when the two parts 2 are brought together. and 3, thus reinforcing the joining and maintaining of the handle 1 on the stirrup 4.
  • the handle 1 After manufacture, the handle 1 is open, the parts 2 and 3 are positioned parallel to the stirrup 4, attached to the latter by breakable bridges 45, visible on Figure 1, so that the support can be presented for sale suspended in a linear with a smaller footprint, orifices 20 and 30 being formed for this suspension at the end of parts 2 and 3 respectively of the handle 1.
  • the stirrup 4 comprises, projecting perpendicular both to the stirrup 4 and to the axis of the handle 1, two parallel lugs 46 and 47, also coming from molding, allowing the horizontal positioning of the roller on the edge of the paint bucket for draining, the spacing of these two pins 46 and 47 allowing their snap-fastening on a pot of standard thickness.
  • the handle 1 consists of two non-identical parts 2 'and 3', which can be joined together also by snap-fastening.
  • Part 2 has at its end a tubular portion 21 allowing the adaptation of an extension, not shown, facilitating remote painting work, for example for painting a ceiling.
  • the parts 2 'and 3' each have, near the bridges, respectively 42 and 43, and perpendicularly to these, a flat rib, respectively 22 and 32, intended, when the parts 2 'and 3' are brought together to form the handle 1, to be engaged in a mortise 48 made, in the longitudinal direction, in the stud 41.
  • the flat ribs 22 and 32 in association with the mortise 48 thus make it possible to strengthen the connection from handle 1 to stirrup 4, in the direction of use of the roller, or perpendicular to these flat ribs 22 and 32.
  • each of the parts 2 ′ and 3 ′ may comprise several parallel flat ribs 22, 32 intended to be engaged in several parallel mortises 48 made in the stud 41.
  • the device according to the invention has other advantages.
  • the trough shape of the stirrup 4 makes it possible to avoid paint splashes on the handle 1, therefore on the user's hand.
  • the device according to the invention is entirely made of plastic, it does not present any risk of electric shock to the user, as is the case with conventional paint rollers when they are used near a power source.
