Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a paint roller assembly.
  • Known paint roller assemblies comprise a roller frame having a handle for a user to hold, and an elongated section to receive a roller sleeve.
  • the roller assembly is arranged such that the elongated section, and therefore the roller sleeve can rotate so as to apply paint to surfaces such as walls or ceilings.
  • a problem with known paint roller assemblies is that the user must handle the roller sleeve and therefore come into contact with wet paint when removing the roller sleeve to clean it or throw it away.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a roller assembly in which the user does not have to come into contact with wet paint to remove the roller sleeve.
  • a paint roller assembly comprising a roller frame having an elongated section on which a roller sleeve can be releasably attached, and a release strip positioned radially between the roller sleeve and the elongated section such that the release strip can be pulled so as to remove the roller sleeve from the elongated section of the roller frame.
  • the provision of the release strip enables a user to remove the roller sleeve from the roller frame without having to touch the roller sleeve, and therefore there is no contact with wet paint by the user.
  • Figure 1 is a side view of a paint roller assembly according to the present invention
  • Figure 2 is a front view of a paint roller assembly according to the present invention
  • Figure 3 is a simplified front view of the paint roller assembly of Figure 1 with the roller sleeve fully attached
  • Figure 4 is a simplified front view of the paint roller assembly of Figure 1 with the roller sleeve partially detached, and
  • Figure 5 is a simplified front view of the paint roller assembly of Figure 1 with the roller sleeve fully detached.
  • the paint roller assembly 10 comprises a roller frame 12 having an elongated cylindrical section 14 upon which a roller sleeve 16 can be attached, and a handle 18.
  • the elongated section 14 has a first end 22, and a second end 24.
  • the roller release strip 20 is in the form of a thin plastic strip, and has a first end 26 and a second end 28, the first end 26 being fixed to a circumferential outside surface 23 of the first end 22 of the elongated section,.
  • the first end 22 can be fixed to axial end 25 of the elongated section.
  • the roller release strip 20 is fixed using a suitable adhesive, or other suitable fixing means.
  • roller release strip is shown thicker than it actually is so as to enable its function to be described clearly.
  • the strip is sufficiently thin so that is can be easily positioned radially between the roller sleeve and the elongated section, but not so thin that it will break when pulling it to remove the roller sleeve.
  • the roller release strip 20 is arranged such that it is positioned radially between the elongated section 14 and the roller sleeve 16 and extends from the first end 22 along the elongated section with the second end 28 of the roller release strip 20 extending sufficiently beyond the second end 24 of the elongated section such that a user can grasp it, but not so far beyond such that it interferes with the normal paint rolling process.
  • the release sleeve is removed from the elongated section of the roller as follows with reference to Figures 3 to 5:
  • release strip 20 enables the user to remove the roller sleeve without having to contact it.
