' specification.
To all whom itmajz/ concern.' Y
Be it known that I, JAMES T. PHARns, a citizen of the United States, residing at Carlinville, in the county of Macoupin land the State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in' Stand-Up Scrubbing-l3rushes, of which the following, isa
This invention relates to scrubbing brushes, and more particularly to the handle therefor, the object being to construct andy associate the handle with the brushl in a manner'to permit the same to be adjusted in an inclined position in the direction of either the transverse or longitudinal centerv j lines of the brush, with means for holding the handle in adjusted position, wherehj` the brush can be moved over the surface to be cleaned in either a longitudinal or transv verse positionwith respect to the handle.`
The invention further contemplatesa construction of a device of this. character, Y
whereby if one side -or end portion -of the brush should wear beyond useV prior to the'r remaining portion of the brush, the'handle being capable of beingV adjusted to extend beyond either end or side of the brush and permits use of the latter until the cleaning surface thereof is completely wornbeyond further use. .l I 'l I further aim to providev a Vdevice, of this character provided with meansv for connecting the ends of a piece of cloth or other suit-v able material to the brush which is adapted to cover the bristles thereof, when it is 'dei sired to use the brush forpbrushing walls, polished surfaces or the like. l
Other objects of the invention will appear as the nature of the same is better under; stood from the following description, wherein the specific construction andarrangement of parts are fully set forthvin the Y claims. j j
In the drawing forming part of this application like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views and wherein:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the brush i. showing the handle in one of its adjusted positions. Fig. 2 is an end view of the device with the parts in position as` shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is an end'view showing the handle in another of its adjusted positions.
Referring more particularly to the drawing A indicates generally a scrubbing brush ,JAMES 4T. rrranns, 'or GARLINVILLE, ILLINOIS.
' Specification of Letterslfatent. 1. Patente atpiicationnidianuary 22,1915. .seriainaegssa of ordinary w'ell known constructionincludingl the back 'and bristles 6. Adjustably daan. 4., 191e.
secured to theback 5 at a point approxi* mately centrally thereof vis a screw eye 7 adaptedA to be received between Vthe bifurcated portions 8 atthe'lower end of the .handle 9, a fastening boltf10 being passed l through said bifurcated portions ,and e'yef and secured therein by means of a nut 11.,
`This construction obviously* provides a lpivotal connection l'between thebrush A and .the handle whereby the Vlatter is permitted 12, .having a centrally disposed opening 4to assume an angular inclined position fas" shown. l
through Vwhich the handle projects, the block A I beingA supported upon the handle adjacent.
.the lower end thereof by means of the` b'olt j. 10, and thejnut 11, a Cotter pin 13 passing through a. suitable opening in the handle above the block and ,serving'to `hold ythe vblock operatively associated with the handle. The under side of the block at one end Y Athereofv is'recessed as at 14, the separated portions 15`de1ined by the recess being adapted to embrace the opposite side edges' .of the black 5 of the brush, when the handle.' is 1n the position shownin Fig. 1. block 12 in' this position serves to limit the pivotal movement of the handle in one di-p'V rection, while-swingingly mounted upon the under side of the block 12 at the opposite end thereof is substantially U-sliaped'locki ing' element 16, the'parallel limbs of which are adapted to engage, and bear against the upper surface of the back 5 to prevent pivotal movement of the handle in an opposite direction,thereby maintaining the handle at the proper degree of inclination to permitV the brush to be conveniently handledA by the user in an upright position. With the fa'ctborne -inmind that the brush is susceptible for use in various ca-` pacities, it isfsometimes desirable. to have the brush proper disposed transversely withrelation to the handle 9, and the construction hereinabove described and illustrated provides an adjustment to obtain this arposition shown in Fig. 1 to the position shown in Fig. 3, it is only necessary to liftthe locking element 16 out of engagement with the' back 5 of the brush, which permits of the handle being moved upon its pivot to vertical position. Subsequent to this arrangement either the brush A or handle 9 may be partly rotated by reason of the screw eye connection between these parts to assume the relative position disclosed in Fig. 3.V As shown in Fig. 3 the block 12 is adapted to engage one of the longitudinal edges of the back 5', while the locking element 1G bears against the upper surface of the baclr 5 to maintain the parts iXed relatively in this position. It will be further noted that by reason of the angular disposition of the block 12 with respect to the brush A, when the latter is disposed transversely as shown in Fig. 3, the block 12 serves to prevent casual rotation of either the handle or brush upon the screw eye connection 7. The separated portions 15 of the block wien arranged at the opposite sides of the brush A serve to prevent casual rotation between the parts when the same are in the position shown in Fig. 1.
Rising from the back 5 of the brush a'djacent the opposite ends thereof are pointed studs 17 adapted to connect the opposite ends of the cloth or other piece of material Y assed lonoitudinall around the brush when a soft cleaning surface is desired for the purpose of brushing a wall, polished surface or the like.
It is believed that from the foregoing description the nature and advantages of the invention will be thoroughly understood without requiring a more extended explanation and therefore the same has been omitted. However I desire to have it understood that I do not limit myself to the precise construction and arrangement of parts herein illustrated and described, and that various changes in this respect may be 1. A brush, a handle rising therefrom and Aadjustably associated therewith, and adapted to extend at an inclination beyond either side or end of the brush, a block mounted on the handle for engagement with the brush to limit the adjustment of the handle in one direction, and means for holding said handle against movement in an opposite direction.
2. A brush, a handle rising therefrom and adjustably associated therewith and adapted to extend at an inclination beyond either side or end of the brush, a block mounted upon the handle for engagement with said brush to limit the adjustment of the handle in one direction, and a locking element supported by the block for engagement with the brush to hold said handle against movement in an opposite direction.
3. A brush, a handle therefor, a connection between the brush and handle, said connection pivotally supporting said handle and provided for relative rotation between said members, a block mounted upon the handle for engagement with the brush to limit the pivotal movement of the handle in one direction and to prevent casual rotation of the said handle or brush, and a locking element carried by said block for engagement with the brush to prevent pivotal movement of the handle in an opposite direction.
n testimony whereof I afX my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
