IMPROVEMENT IN BRUSHES FOR DUST-PANS.-
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 126,677, dated May 14, 1872.
Specification describing a certain Improvement in Combination Brushes and Dust-Pans, invented by WALTER M. OONGER, of Newark, Essex county, New Jersey.
The following is a description of whatI consider the best means of carrying out the invention:
The accompanying drawing forms a part of this specification.
Figure l is a back View of the dust-pan with the brush mounted thereon by means of its peculiar attachments; and Fig. 2 is a section on the line S S in Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in all the figures.
The single letter A is employed generally to represent a dust-pan of ordinary construction. A indicates the wired or otherwise thickened upper edge of the back. The remainder of the dust-pan may be formed in any ordinary or suitable manner. B is the wood stock of a brush,
' which has, as usual, an extension of the stock,
marked 13, and the usual bristles, Manila, or
' other suitable brush material, marked B The back of the stock Bis provided with springcatches b, secured by screws or other suitable means of firm attachment. The catches b are preferably of hard sheet-brass,known as spring brass. They are curved, as represented, and matched together face to face, so that, on pressing the flared or diverging mouth on'the thick back edge A of the dust-pan A, the springs I can use three or other number of pairs of the spring catches V b on the back of each brush; but I believe that two will usually be sufficient. The dustpan with the brush attached may be hung up by a ring in the handle or otherwise, and the parts may be attached as long as may be desired.
When taken down for use, the springcatches I) readily yield to a gentle pull, and the brush and dust-pan separate. After the use is completed, the brush is simply turned over, back downward, and struck or pressed on the back of the dust-pan in the right position when the spring catches I) immediately engage, and the whole is again ready to be suspended as a single article.
The sprin g-catch es 1) are very small and cheaply made in comparison with the large springs or sockets required on the dust-pan to receive the brush. They are less in the way in use, and less liable to injury.
I claim as my invention- The within-described construction of abrush, B, with permanent attachments 1), adapted to allow of its ready engagement with and disen gagement from the edge of anordinary dustpan, as herein specified.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 26th day of February, 1872, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
WALTER M. OONGER.
