Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented J an. 6, 1920.
Application filed March 17, 1919. Serial No. 283,006.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HERMAN A. MnoKmaN- Bone, a citizen of the United States residing at Gilby, in the county of Grand F orks, State of North Dakota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Curry- Combs; and I do hereby declare the following to be'a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will en able others skilled in the art to whlch 1t appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to'new and useful improvements in curry combs and particu larly to that type of curry combs which 1neludes self-cleaning means.
One object of the present invention is to improve the construction of cleaning devices for curry combs whereby both sldes of the tooth plates of the comb can be easily and effectively cleaned.
Another object is to provide a novel and improved operating means for the clean ng elements of the comb, whereby the cleaning elements can be easily and quickly operated by the hand which holds the handle of the comb. 7
Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a curry comb made in accordance with my invention.
Fig. 2 is abottom plan view of the comb.
Fig. 3 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view taken on the line 3-8 of Fig. 2, showing the arrangement of the hand contained means for operating the cleaning blades.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged vertical sectional view through the comb showing the cleaning blades in lowered or cleaning position.
Fig. 5 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 55 of Fig. 2, showing the arrangement of the shaft which operates the cleaning blades.
Fig. 6 is a? horizontal sectional view taken on the line 6-6 of Fig. 1.
Referring particularly to the accompanying drawings, 10 represents a metal ring has the disk 11 secured to one edge thereof and which forms the top or cover for the comb. A pair of metal straps 12 have their corresponding ends turn outwardly away from each other and curved in conformity to the outer curvature of the ring 10, and riveted thereto. The other ends of the straps extend into a cylindrical member 18 which forms the handle of the device, said straps being held in parallel spaced relation to each other by the rivets or bolts 14:. Telescoped into the other end of the handle member 13 is a shorter tubular member 15, and secured to the outer closed end of this member is a rod 16. This ried by a sleeve 18 on the intermediate portion of the shaft 17 are the depending crank arms 18 to which the portions of the adjacent bifurcated end of the rod 16 are pivotally connected.
Disposed concentrically within the ring 10 are the series of concentric tooth blades 19 which are in the formof rings similar to the ringlO, but not quite as wide. Extending diametrically across the rings and secured thereto, and to the ring 10, are the brace rods 20.
The cleaning members each consists of a doubled ring member which straddles a tooth ring from the upper edge thereof each portion of the cleaning ring being disposed on one side of and frictionally engaging one face of the tooth ring. The cleaning members are shown at 21. Each of the cleaning rings has a plurality of vertical slots 22 through which the brace rods 20 pass, and whereby the cleaning rings are capable of movement independently of the tooth rings. Extending diametrically across the device and secured to the upper portions of the cleaning rings are the connecting bars 23, by means of which the said cleaning rings may be moved in unison. Secured to the brace rods 20, at their point of intersection, is a socket member 24, and disposed in this socket member is the lower end of a central post 25, the upper portion of the post passing through the intersecting portions of the connecting bars 28.
Carried by this post are the horizontal bracket arms 26 the outer ends of which are engaged in supporting relation with the shaft 17. Also carried by the sleeve 18, and extending horizontally outward therefrom, are the crank arms 27, the outer end of each of which has pivotally connected thereto,
the depending link 28. Secured-to one of the bars 23 are the apertured lugs 29, and pivotally connected to each of these lugs is the lower end of one of the links 28.
From the foregoing it will be seen that when the shorter tubular member 15 is pushed inwardly the rod 16 will rock the shaft 17 by means of the crank arm 18. This rocking of the shaft will produce the depression of the brace bars 23, through the connection of the crank arms 27 and the links 28, thus moving the cleaning rings toward the toothed edges of the comb rings, with the result that the lower edges of the cleaning rings will scrape the hair, dirt, and dandruff from the comb rings.
Within the handle 13, and encircling the rod 16, is a coil spring 30, one end bearing.
against the disk 31, secured within the handle and against a disk 32 secured to the member 15. Thus, as soon as the pressure of the hand of the operator is released from the member 15, the spring 30 will restore said member to outer position, with respect to the member 13, with the result that the rod 16 will pull the crank arms 18 and rock the shaft 17 so that the other crank arms 27 will pull the cleaning rings upwardly so as to expose the teeth of the comb rings for further operation on the animal.
What is claimed is:
1. A curry comb including a casing, concentric toothed rings mounted in spaced concentric relation within the casing, scraping rings disposed in frictional contact with the toothed rings, a handle carried by the casing, and means carried by the handle and connected with the scraping rings for moving said rings across the faces of the toothed rings.
2. A curry comb including a casing, concentric toothed rings secured in concentric relation within the casing, a handle carried by the casing, cleaning elements frictionally contacting with the opposite faces of the toothed rings, a transverse shaft mounted in the casing, operative connections between frictionally with the sides of the toothed ring and provided with vertical slots, to
allow movement with respect to said rods, a
shaft mounted in the casing abovethe said rings, a hollow handle carried by the casing, a hollow member telescoped into the said handle member, a rod connected to the telescoped member and to, the said shaft, connections between the cleaning members for simultaneous operation thereof, and connections between the shaft and the said connections.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature, in the presence of two witnesses.
JOHN HESKETH, ALBERT BAKKEN.
