Definitions
- This invention relates to improvements in brush holders and aims to provide a convenient means by which a brush may be held suspended in a receptacle with the bristles submerged in the paint, so as to prevent the brush frombecoming dry and hardened and to hold the bristles from contact with the bottom of the receptacle, which is especially desirable in marking brushes, which when the bristles bear the weight of the brush render the latter unfit for use.

Description
, CARL L. YEARWOOD, OF KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE.
BRUSH-HOLDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 2, 1919.
Application filed July s, 1918. Serial No. 243,527.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CARL L. Ynanwoon, a citizen of the United States, residing at Knoxville, in the county of Knox and State of Tennessee, have invented new and useful Improvements in Brush-Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in brush holders and aims to provide a convenient means by which a brush may be held suspended in a receptacle with the bristles submerged in the paint, so as to prevent the brush frombecoming dry and hardened and to hold the bristles from contact with the bottom of the receptacle, which is especially desirable in marking brushes, which when the bristles bear the weight of the brush render the latter unfit for use. c
To this end the invention includes a receptacle provided with a lid or cover, the latter carrying an arcuate shaped supporting member, to which is secured each end of a helical spring so as to bring its convolutions closer together on the side toward the centerof the receptacle, thereby affording a surer grip upon the handle of r the brush.
The invention further consists of the fol-- lowing novel details of construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more fully described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a side elevation of the invention applied to a marking pot, the brushbe ing shown supported in the holder;
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the same;
Fig. 3 is a plan view and Fig. 4 is an elevation'of the holder and 1 lid removed from the pot.
The invention-as illustrated in the accompanying drawings is shown as applied to an ordinary marking pot indicated at 10, but it is of course understood that it is equally well adapted for use in connection with pots or receptacles of various shapes and sizes and it is desired that it be understood, that while for the purposes of illustration the marking pot is employed, the right is reserved to apply the invention'in any manner for which it is adapted.
The pot 10 is provided with the usual handle 11 and also with the removable lid or closure 12, the latter being provided with a flange 13, which snugly fits the open end of the pot, so as to .frictionally hold the lid in position. This lid is formed with an opening 14, through which access is obtained to the interior of the pot without removing the lid. This opening extends from a point approximately central of the alined apertures 17 located near each edge of the supporting member and its central portion is threaded through similar apertures 18 disposed substantially central of the width of the supporting member. This holds the spring substantially the same line or curvature as the arcuate shaped supporting member, so that the convolutions of the spring on the side toward the center of the receptacle are brought closer together than upon the opposite side. This securely holds the handle of the brush 19 in position between the convolutions by preventing the resilient character of the spring outward from the holder, as would likely occur if the spring was arranged in a straight line.
It is believed that from the foregoing description and the accompanying drawings,
arranged substantially parallel with the lid 7 and shaped to conform with the shape of the supporting member so as to bring the convolutions closer together upon the side of the spring toward the center of the pan, to provide a brush holding element.
In testimony whereof I a'liiX my signature.
CARL L. YEARWOOD.
