Letters Patent No. 101,307, dated March 29, 1870.
IMPROVED ATTACHMENT FOR BRUSHES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part: of the same I, SAMUEL PEARSON, of Cincinnati, Hamilton county, Ohio, have invented a new and useful Attachment for `Host-1ers and other Brushes, of which the following is a specification.
Nature and Objects of the Invention.
My invention relates to the provision of a ngerrest, which, being attached to the back of a hostlers or other brush provided with a back-strap, greatly increases its proper control by the operator, and enables the brush to be used-more eiectively, and with less fatigue.
General Description with Reference t0 the Drawings.
Figure 1 is a perspective viewof a hostlers brush, provided with my improvement.
Figure 2 is a transverse section ofthe same at the line X-X.
A, B, and O represent, respectively, the back, the hand-strap or back-strap, and the bristles of an ordinary hostlers brush.
I) is my rest, composed of vulcauite or hard rubber, bone, wood, metal, or other suitable substance.
The said rest is formed on its front or eective surface into a series ot' scallops, E, with intervening ridges F,`ot` which the central ridge is preferably the most prominent.
These scallops, in the preferred form of myimprove Iment, slope from the back of the brush rearward and upward at an angle of about forty-tive degrees.
Projecting from the under side of the rest -is a pin, Gr, which, being passed through a suitable hole provided in the back A, is riveted on the under side thereof.
This riveted pin, with one or more spurs, H, projecting also from the under side of the rest, serves to hold the latter firmly iu position. When of metal, my rest maybe either cast or stamped.
Myimprovemeut is shown attached to a brush having the customary leather back and leather hand-strap, but may be applied to brushes having wooden backs.
Inusing a brush having my improvement, the foreinger occupies the extreme left-hand scallop, where the righthand is employed, the middle and fourth iingers occupying the two right-hand scallops, but where the left hand is employed, the fore-finger occupies the extreme right-handscallop and the middle and fourth iingers the two left-hand scallops. When a brush has become worn at one end the rest`may be changed Ato the other end.
Persons accustomed to cleaning horses are aware that much of the labor attending the use of the common hostlers brush is wasted inthe eort to' prevent the brush slipping about under the hand while in use.
To remedy, in part this defect, hostlers are compelled to brace their hands with much eEort against the strap, thus fatiguing their muscles and drawing the brush out of shape, and even with this precaution the brush is apt to slip when firmness is most necessary, whereas, in using my improved brush, the user grasps it without fatigue and has perfect command at all times. 4
While describing the preferred form of my invention, I reserve the right to vary the same in nou-essential particulars, for example:
A second riveted pin may be employed in place of the spurs H, or the rest may be let slightly into the back of the brush, in` which case a single riveted piu will be sutiicient, or the rest may be secured to the back ofthe brush by screws entering it from the under side or front ofthe brush.
Instead of a single rest, two or more may be ernployed, providing their shape is such as to afford the requisite lateral support to the iinger of the operator, and to impart a firmer grasp with less fatigue to the user.
Although described and particularly intended for use upon hostlers brushes,.the improvement may be applied to any brush having a .back-strap.
Claims.
I claim as new and of my invention- 1. The rest D E F G H, or its equivalent, for attachment to the backs of hostlers brushes, substantially as set forth.
2. The rest D, in combination with a brush having a back-strap, substantially as set forth.
In testimony of which invention I hereunto set my hand.
SAMUEL PEARSON. Witnesses:
Guo. H. KNIGHT, JAMES H. LAYL'IAN.
