FLOOR BRUSHER AND OILER.
Application filed November 18, 1912.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Josnri-I E. HELLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Floor Brusher and Uiler, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
This invention relates to hand operated apparatus for expeditiously cleaning and oiling floors with one operation, the invention having reference more particularly to a frame in which a brush and also a reservoir and an oil spreader and rubber are mounted.
The object of the invention primarily is to provide an improved floor oiler and polisher of such construction as to be adapted to be reversed in order that the rubbing portions thereof shall be worn away evenly and enabled to operate in the most satisfactory manner, a further object being to provide a combined brusher and oiler of such construction as to be adapted for use either for brushing or for oiling and polishing a floor. 7
A still further object is to provide an implement of the above mentioned character that shall be so constructed as to be of few parts, of simple construction and which may be cheaply produced, and so as to provide either a brush or an oiling implement without it being necessary to provide a separate operating and controlling handle for each implement.
With the above mentioned and other objects in view, the invention consists in a combination implement comprising an operating handle provided with a brush and also a reservoir and an oil spreader, the
' invention comprising also an improved fioor oiler and an improved brush frame detachably connected in a novel manner with the floor oiler; and the invention consists further in the novel parts and in the combinations and arrangements of parts as hereinafter particularly described and claimed.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the complete invention; Fig. 2, a perspective view, partially broken away, of the improved frame whereby a floor may be brushed or cleaned without oiling it; Fig. 3, a vertical central section of the oil-reservoir and rubbing swab on the Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. f3, 1215.
Serial no. 73am.
Similar reference characters in the different figures of the drawings indicate corresponding elements or features of construction herein referred to.
The improved reservoir comprises a metallic wall having two principal side portions 1 and 2 and two relatively narrow end portions 3 and i, and also a top 5 secured to the upper end of the wall and provided with a filling neck 6 having a removable cap 7 thereon, the under side of the top 5 having a reinforcing bar 8 secured thereto and extending transversely from one to the other of the side portions 2 and 8 of the wall. A valve stem 9 is screw-threaded into the bar 8 and extends through the top 5, the inner end of the stem having a downwardly facing valve 10 thereon, the outer end of the stem having a hand wheel 11 fixed thereon. The length of the valve stem 9 is such as to maintain the valve at a suitable distance inward from the plane of the normal lower end of the wall corresponding to the upper side of a wooden bottom. 12 which is secured by suitable means to the wall, the bottom being set in a suitable distance above the plane of the lower end of the wall. The middle portion of the bottom has a vertical feed-port 18 that extends therethrough and a valve seat 14; at the upper end of the feedport. The end portion 3 of the reservoir wall has two projecting studs 15 and 16 and the portion i has two similar studs 17 and 18, the studs preferably extending through the wall portions and into the bottom 12. The valve 10 when forced down onto its seat 1% closes the feed-port 13 and obviously the feeding of the oil from the reservoir may be regulated ov adjusting the valve so as to partially open the feed-port.
A novel form of swab, which is highly efficient in operation, is provided and includes a holder which is preferably composed of a suitable number of wooden secand thickness, and a relatively thinner section 2 1, each section, excepting the thinner one, having a recess 25 in one side of its lower portion formed by rabbetting the sec--- tion before placing the sections together, the section 24 being placed against the section 23 so as to partially cover the recess in the section 23. It will be seen that the recesses constitute grooves at the joints of the several sections into which the upper edges of a suitable number of sections 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, of the swab are inserted and secured preferably by small nails 31, the edge portions of the sections being compressed in the grooves when the sections of the holder are forced together closely and secured as av unitary whole by means of a suitable number of rivets 32, 32 extending through all the sections. The sections of the swab preferably are composed of suitable felting, and a binder 33 of similar material is'placed around the swab sections and extends upward and is suitably tacked or otherwise secured to the exterior of the holder, the binder extending entirely about the swab sections and the holder, and the upper portion thereof with the holder is inserted in the lower portion of the wall of the reservoir so that the holder is in contact with the bottom 12. The upper side or top of the holder has a longitudinal main oil distributing channel at therein that extends under the feed-port 13, and a feed hole '35 extends downward from the channel through the swab holder so as to conduct oil between two of the swab sections. -The top of the holder has also two diverging branch channels 36 and 37 extending from one end of the channel 34, and two diverging branch-channels 38 and-39-extending from the opposite end 'of the main channel, there being preferably a suitable number of lateral channels 10 and 41 extending from opposite sides of the main channel. Two feed holes 42 and 13 extend downward from the channels 36 and 37 respectively, two feed holes 44 and 45 extending downward from the channels 38 and 39 respectively, other feed holes 46 and 47 extending downward from the ends of'the lateral channels, all the feed holes being arranged to conduct the oil so as to deliver it between two adjacent swab sections, in order that the oil may freely work down to the floor without necessitating the saturation of the whole of the swab. Theswab holder is provided with a suitable number of holes 48, 18 to receive screws 19, 49 which are inserted between adjacent swab sections and screwed into the bottom 12 whereby the swab is detachably secured to the bottom.
, A suitable handle 50 is provided to which two outspreading arms 51 and 52 are se- 'cured,'the arms being adapted'to tightly embrace the two end portions 3 and 4 revspectively of the reservoir wall and be in horizontal position when the reservoir is in normal upright position, the arms extending slightly beyond the plane of the normal front of the reservoir. The arm 51 has two sockets 53 and 53 receiving the studs 16 and 15 respectively, the arm 52 having similar sockets 54 and 54 receiving the studs 18 and 17 respectively, whereby the arms are connected to the reservoir and may be disconnected therefrom by springing the arms apart from the studs. The arms 51 preferably has also two apertures 55 and 56 therein, the arm 52 having two apertures 55 and 56 therein at opposite sides or forward and rearward of the reservoir, in order that a brush frame may be detachably connected to the reservoir frame.
A suitable brush frame comprises a main bar 57 that is normally in horizontal position and from which extends two guide bars 58 and 59 at right angles thereto, two arms 60 and 61 extending from the two guide bars respectively and adapted to closely embrace the outer sides of the arms 51 and 52. The ends of the arms 60 and 61 are provided with hinge pins or pivots 62 and 62 that are inserted through the apertures 56 and 56, respectively, and pivotally connect the brush frame to the oiler frame, a tubular spreader bar 63 being inserted between the arms 51 and 52 and receiving the inner ends of the pivots for holding the arms 51. and 52 at the required distance apart when disconnected from the reservoir, but the bar 63 may be omitted when the arms are connected to the reservoir. The arms 60 and 61 are provided also with two locking pins er and 6 1' respectively that are inserted in the apertures 55 and 55 to prevent relative pivotal movement of the brush frame, and it will be understood that the arms 60 and 61 may be sprung apart to disconnect them from the arms 51 and 52. The bar 57 has two guideways 65 and 65 therein and the guide bars 58 and 59 have vertically arranged slots or guideways 66 and 66 therein respectively that are approximately at right angles to the- arms 60 and 61 respec tively.
A suitable brush comprises a back 67 of suitable length to fit slidingly between the guide bars 58 and 59, and bristles 68 or the like secured to the'back. The ends of the back 67 are provided with guide pins 69 and 69 that extend through the guideways 66 and 66, and the back is provided also with two upwardly extending guide pins 70 and 70 that extend through the guideways 65 and 65 respectively for holding the brush in proper upright position, two coil springs 71 and 71 being inserted between the bar 57 and the back 67 and retained by the up right guide pins which may consist of screws having heads to serve as stops, the brush being stopped also when forced downward by the springs relative to the frame when the guide pins 69 and 69 arrive at the lower ends of their guide ways.
In practical use, oil required for the floor is regulated by the valve 10 and the flow entirely stopped by the valve when the apparatus is not in use. The implement is placed on the floor somewhat as illustrated in Fig. 1 and pushed ahead of the operator and obviously may be lifted from the floor and drawn backward and then lowered to the floor again, so that the floor may be thoroughly brushed or swept in order to remove dust in advance of the application of the oil, in order that the floor may be left in clean and polished condition. If it is preferred, however, to first cleanse the floor by other means the brush may be swung up on to the handle while oiling the floor if considerable weight is desired, or may be entirely detached by springing the arms 60 and 61 apart until the pivots 62 and 62 are disconnected from the arms 51 and 52. If it is desired to brush the floor and not oil it, it will be understood that the swab holder may be detached from the bottom 12 and the weight of the reservoir and oil therein will. serve to hold down the brush, or the swab may remain connected to the reservoir and the brushing be accomplished by simply elevating the handle 50 somewhat and preventing the oil from feeding down to the floor through the swab. In case it is not desired to have the brush weighted it is evident that after disconnecting the brush frame from the arms 51 and 52 the latter may be disconnected from the reservoir, after which the arms 60 and 61 may be connected to the arms 5] and 52 as illustrated in Fig. 2, and brushing operations may be easily accomplished.
It will be understood from the foregoing that the eservoir may be reversed in arrangement relative to its frame and also that the swab may be discarded when worn out, together with its holder, and a new one applied in its place, the incidental expense be ing relatively small. Also it is evident that a new brush may be readily substituted for a worn out brush at small expense.
