PATENT OFFICE.
CULLEN B. CLARK, OF ARMADA, MICHIGAN.
IMPROVEMENT IN LAMP-CHIMNEV CLEANERS.
Specication forming part of Letters Patent No. 117,741, dated August 8, 1871.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, UULLEN B. CLARK, of Armada, in the county oi' Macomb and State of Michigan, have invented a new and Improved Chimney-Cleaner; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specication, in which- Figure 1 represents a side elevation of my improved chimney-cleaner.A Fig. 2 is a plan or top view of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
This invention relates to improvements inlampchimney cleaners of the class in which plate springs are used to press the material employed g in cleaning against the inside of the chimney,
and are attached to a rotary shaft or spindle. The invention consists in the arrangement of springs and cleaning-pads in connection with a spindle. The spindle is, by gearing', connected with a driving-shaft which is turned by hand, so that the pads attached to the end of the spindle will be rotated very rapidly in the chimneys to clean the same. l
A in the drawing representsa cast-iron or other bar, which is provided with double iianges a b near its lower end, and with a screw, c, whereby it can, in an upright or other position, be clamped to the edge of a table or other device. In ears d d that project from the upper part of the bar A are the bearings of a spindle, B, which carries the cleaning-pads C C at one end. These pads are of suitable construction, made of worsted or other material, and are formed of metal bars or springs e e, which are forced away from the spindle by springs f, as shown. A pinion, g, is mounted on one end of the spindle B, and meshes into a toothed wheel, h, that is hung to the side of the bar A. A crank on the wheel h serves as ahandle Jfor revolving the spindle with rapidity.
The pads are compressed when iitted' into a chimney, as in Fig. l, and as they are rapidly revolved in the same they will quickly clean it. The operator holds the chimney with one hand and turns the crank with the other.
Having thus described my invention, I desire to be understood as laying no claim to any novelty in the construction or arrangement oi' any part of the above-described apparatus except the springs and pads.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
rIhe cleaning-pads, springs, or plates e e and springs ff, attached to the outer end of the spindle B so as to project toward the post A, as specied.
The above specification of my invention signed by me this the 3d day oi' May, 1869.
CULLEN B. CLARK.
