PASTE-TUBE HOLDER.
. Be it known that I, KENNE u a' citizen of the'United States, residing lat Salt Lake City, in the county of Salt Lake and` State of Utah, have invented\'certain new and useful Improvements in Paste-Tube Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to paste tube holders and more particularly to means for hold- I ing tubes for containing tooth paste, sofap in y paste form and similar materials.
One of the main objects bf the invention is to provide a device of the character stated of simple` construction and o eration forsupporting a compressible tu e for containing pastethis supporting ydevice belng provlded with means forcompressing the tube so' as to expel the' contents thereof, A further object is to provide a casing having means for compressing a tube and for simultaneously forming the.tube into a compact bundle or mass so as to occupy but very little space. A strll further object is to provide a casingunconjunction with a key for winding a tube and a resilient member for engaging the tube so as to compress the same and expel the contents thereof as the tube is wound upon the key. Further objects will appear from the v detailed description.
In the drawings f Fi re 1 is a plan of the blank for formt, in t ceasing,
' through the casing,
Fig. 5 is a similar view showing a tube in operative position,
Fig. 6'is a section taken on line 6-6 of Fig. 7 is a top plan view of a blank for a modified form of casing, i
Fig. 8isa central veritcal sectional vlew` Fig. 9 is a section taken substantially on line 9--9 of Fig. 8,
The blank shown in Fig.'1 of the drawingsis provided with the approximately triangular lateral pieces 1 and 2 and the approxllmately square back 3V and the rectangular ment. This sprlng is, of
' A- front 4. The pieces 1 and 2 are provided with TH A.v(lR`1sMoN, a
lthe hook slots 5 and 6, respectively, extending lnward from the outer edge thereof. This blank is bent alon the dotted lines indicated 1n Fig. 1 of the rawings, so to` producel Patented June 25, 1918. Application ledIune 26, 1917. Serial No. 177,061. i'
the .casing shown in Fig. 2, having the tapering side walls 1 and 2, squared back 3, and
drawings. Spring 8 is of such len h as to extend beyond the slots 5 and 6. key 12 such as that shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings 1s rotatably mounted in the hook portions of slots 5 and 6. This key is provided with a central longitudinally extending slot 13 which is adapted to receive the iiattened end portion 14 of a compressible tube 15 of tin foil or other suitable material which contains the paste to be expelled. When the key 12 is in operative position, the spring 8 is held pressed downward into tight engagement therewith, as in Fig. 5 of the drawin By rotating the key 12 ythe tube 15 will wound onto 4thesame, the pressure of spring 8 on the tube servin to force' the contents of the tube out of the t readed nipple 16 at the lower end thereof as the tube is wound onto the key. By this means, any desired amount of material may be forced out of the tube, the tube being Hattened and wound upon the key 12 during this operation. When the tube has been emptied, the ke may be readily removed from' the casing y being lifted out of the hook portions of the slots 5 and 6 after which the empty tube may be removed and a new tube inserted in its place. The spring 8 acts to flatten or compress the tube 15 inthe manner described,`and also, due to its pressure on the key 12, serves as a locking means for holding the key in rotated adjustl course, of such width as to extend throughout the entire width of the portion of the tube being compressed, as shown in Fig. 6 of the drawings. Also, the resiliency of the spring 8 serves to A tapering wedge block 10 1s lnterpOSed between spring 8 and y prevent breakage of the tube inthe event of the V'pa-ste being lumpy or unusually thick', such as would occur iithe tube were forced beneath a iixed` compressing member.
By -constructing thecasing in the4 manner set forth, I provide a device which may be. produced atvery low cost and presents a neat appearance, this device also serving as a housing for the various elements for comform.
pressing the tube and for the upperlportion of thetube. A casing constructed 1n this manneris especially adapted -to use in bath roomsl and similar places for supporting tubes ontaining tooth paste, soap paste, or.
other materials used for toilet purposes. course, the device kmay be equally well used for compressing tubes containing paint or any other material in a pasty or semi-liquid The form of the device shown in- Figs. 7 to `9 inclusive, closely resembles that shown in Aaus Figs. 1' to 6, except that the spring 8- is replacedby a compressing Aroller 17 whlch 1s 'mounted in horizontal slots 18 and 19 in'the side walls 1 and 2, respectively, of the casing,
for limited movement toward andl away from the key .12,` This roller is `resiliently yfrced toward the key, by the springs 20 which are mounted on a rod 21 secured in the side walls of the casing and near the top thereof, these springs being .wound about the rod and having their upper arms 22 vin engagement with the under face .of the top 11 of the casing. The roller. 17 acts to compress the tube 15 in the same. manner, as spring 8 so-as to expel the contents thereof, Whenthe tube is'wound upon key 12.
In the form of the device shown in Figs.
10 and 11,the hook slots 5a land 6"L are made somewhat longer than slots 5 and`6, so as to extend to Within a short distance of the top 11 of the casing. A compressing roller 23 'Y is` rotatably mounted in the side plates 1 and 2 of the 'casing and is secured against movement in the casing. This roller 23 is mount.
ed in the same. plane as rollerl 17, which is forced toward the same by the springs 20 mounted on rod 21. These two rollers are tion 24 vsorted between the rollers 17 and 23 and into the slot of key 12. This tubehaving this so spaced as to provide a restricted passage through which is inserted the flattened end portion 24 of the tube 25. When. the key 12 [is rotated so as to wind the tube. onto thev same, the rollers 17 and 23 act to compress the tube so as to expel ythe contents thereof. rIn this form of the device, the tube 25 is ofv l special form. In filling, this tube is provided with the elongated'iiattenedl end por.-
ltably mounted therein` and providedwith a portion and the elongated end por-' fiattened end portion may be manufactured. 4 as a separate article and sold for use'in connection withv the device shownin Figs. 10
vand 11 of theA drawings,' thus providing 1 1 so as to expel the contents thereof'and form the body portion ofthe tube into .al flattened strip extending longitudinally ofthe .key so asto be easily wound onto said key.v 2. In tube holders, a resilient ,tube engaging member adapted to engage a compressible tube moved into engagementtherewithvso as to expel the contents of said tube, and
means for moving'a-tube. into engagement with saidmember.
3. In tube holders, a casing, a.key` rotatably mounted therein .and provided with means for receiving and holding-the flattened end portionA of a compressibleA tube, and means adapted to engagea tube as it is wound upon said key so as to compress the sameand expel the contents thereof.
4. In tube holders, `a casing, afkeyv rotacentral longitudinally extending4 slot, and a resilient tube engaging member carried by' the casing and normally pressed toward said i key so, as to engagea compressible tube wound upon the same and compress said vtube so as to expel the contents thereof.
