Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a painting vessel, which allows an adequate quantity of paint to be held while painting by hand and also allows the brushes to be soaked effectively when they are not in use.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a painting vessel which is improved with respect to known vessels, with reference to comfortable and stable hold and to the possibility of keeping brushes, pads, rollers and other hand-held instruments immersed in water or another solvent contained in this vessel.
  • the handle extends from or in proximity to the mouth towards the bottom.
  • the handle is designed to pass from the first to the second configuration rotating about a rotation axis AR lying in an ideal plane substantially normal to the axis of the vessel body and eccentric with respect to the mouth.
  • the rotation axis AR is external to the mouth.
  • Figs. 1-4 relate to a first embodiment of the painting vessel according to the invention.
  • This vessel comprises a vessel body, indicated with the reference numeral 2, and which forms a cavity 3 designed to contain an adequate quantity of paint, for example from one quarter of a litre to 2 litres, and more preferably from one to 1.5 litres.
  • the receptacle body can be made, for example, of an appropriate injection moulded plastic material, for example polyethylene, and more in particular high density polyethylene.
  • the cavity 3 is delimited by a bottom 5 and by side walls 6.
  • the cavity 3 is open at the top and forms an upper mouth 7 delimited by a first edge 9, in which the side walls 5 end.
  • the cavity has slightly elongated cross sections.
  • the painting vessel 1 is provided on one side with a handle 11 designed to allow the vessel 1 to be held more stably and comfortably in the hand.
  • the handle 11 comprises a band 13 and a relative fastener 15. ( Figs. 1-3 ).
  • the band 13, indicated in this description also as “mobile band 13”, is preferably made of one of the following materials: synthetic rubber or another relatively soft and flexible polymeric material, such as low density polyethylene, synthetic rubbers or resins with modulus of elasticity ranging from 170 to 350 MPa, synthetic rubbers or resins with Shore A hardness equal to or lower than 70, and more preferably equal to or lower than 60.
  • the mobile band 13 substantially has the shape of a strip and is hinged to the first edge 9 in such a manner that it can rotate about a horizontal rotation axis AR, thereby passing from a handle configuration, shown in Fig. 2 , to a brush washing configuration, shown in Fig.
  • the band 13 and/or handle 11 can be fastened more in general at or in proximity to the mouth 7, i.e. closer to this latter than to the bottom 5; in other embodiments, not shown, the rotation axis AR can not only be horizontal but, more in general, lie in an ideal plane substantially normal to the axis of the vessel body 2 and eccentric to the mouth 7.
  • the rotation axis AR is external to the mouth 7; in other embodiments, not shown, the rotation axis AR can be more in general eccentric with respect to the mouth 7, therefore does not pass through the centre thereof.
  • the fastener 15 is produced as a coupling pin or projection located on the lower outer part of the vessel 1 ( Fig. 3 ) and, in the handle configuration, the band 13 is coupled - using appropriate through holes 17 - to the coupling pin or first coupling projection 15, in such a manner as to form a loop inside which the user can insert a hand to hold the vessel ( Fig. 1 ); in this configuration the handle 11 extends from the mouth 7 towards the bottom 5.
  • the coupling pin 15 has a thickened end to which the band 13 is substantially buttoned.
  • the band 13 is also provided with brush-holder openings 19 ( Fig. 4 ) designed to receive one or more brush handles P1, P2 and hold them substantially upright and with the relative bristles immersed in the cavity 3 when the band 13 extends across the upper mouth 7, i.e. when the painting vessel is in the brush washing configuration; in this configuration the brush-holder openings 19 are advantageously designed to maintain the brushes P1, P2 suspended so that their bristles are not resting on the bottom of the cavity 3, preventing damage thereto caused by bending.
  • substantially upright is intended as inclined with an angle, with respect to a horizontal plane, equal to or greater than 45°, more preferably equal to or greater than 60° and even more preferably equal to or greater than 70°.
  • the brush-holder openings 19 are arranged in such a manner as to hold the brush handles P1, P2 substantially vertical and at a distance from the side walls 5 and from the first edge 9, indicatively in the central portion of the upper mouth 7, as shown in Fig. 4 .
  • each brush-holder opening 19 forms one or more flaps in the form of a lobe 21, for example cusp shaped ( Fig. 4 ), which allow better blocking of the handle of the brushes P1, P2, for example through friction, adapting to handles with considerably different diameters; in the present embodiment the various lobes 21 are arranged substantially radially and converge towards the centre of each brush-holder opening.
  • the mobile band 13 can be held stretched, substantially horizontally, across the upper mouth 7, coupling with a free end 16 to an appropriate fastening tooth 5 or other second fastening projection 23, for example produced on the edge 9, in a position more or less diametrically opposite the hinge 25.
  • the band 13 couples to the tooth 23 using the same holes 17 with which it couples to the coupling pin or projection 15, making it simple and inexpensive to construct.
  • the painting vessel 1 described above combines two different functions:
  • this latter can have substantially flat cross sections.
  • the first edge 9 forms one or more slots or other seats of suitable shape 27, designed to receive and hold in position various parts of other brushes, for example to receive the handle or, advantageously and as shown in Fig. 1 , the ferrule: in this way, it is possible to hold the vessel 1 and the brush, for example during a short break, with one hand, while the other hand is free, for example, to clean an unwanted paint mark or to carry out other operations.
  • the bristles of the brush are not immersed in the paint or in the solvent contained in the cavity 3.
  • the slot 27 is substantially V-shaped in such a manner as to be able to receive brushes of different sizes.
  • the slot 27 has edges turned outwards and/or towards the inside of the cavity 3, in such a manner as to hold the brushes more stably.
  • the vessel 1 is provided with a second edge 29, located inside the cavity 3, in proximity to the first edge 9; as shown in Fig. 1 , the second edge 29 substantially forms a ledge against which the brush can be lightly squeezed after having been dipped in the paint, so that any excess runs directly into the cavity 3.
  • the band 13 can also be made of different materials to synthetic resins, such as fabric made of animal or vegetable fibres.
