To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, MAX BECK and CHAS. SGHNEIDT, both of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented an Improvement in Boot- Brushing Apparatus, of which the following is a specification:
The object of our invention is to enable those who are about to entera house to readily and efiectually clean their boots or shoes by means ure 1, and in the transverse section, Fig. 2, of
the accompanyin drawing.
The frame-work consists of the two side pieces, A A, connected together in front by the scraper e, at the rear by the arched brush d, and at intermediate points by the transverse brushes a a, the whole being arranged for attachment to the floor in a vestibule, or at any other suitable point near the door of a dwelling. The brushes a a are arranged at such a distance apart that the dirt which they are the means of removing from the sole of a boot or shoe, as well as the dirt removed from the edges of the sole by the side brushes b b, shall fall into the drawer B, which also receives such of the dirt as may be removed from the sole by drawing it across the edge ofthe scraper 0, and from the toes by rubbing it against the arched brush d, all the brushes being so arranged that, by a proper movement of the foot, they shall be the medium of quickly and effectually cleaning a boot or shoe.
If desired, the apparatus may be furnished with a base, X, indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 1, for convenience of attachment to a stone or marble floor. I
We claim as our invention- 1. The combination of the brushes a a, the side brushes b b, and arched brush d, arranged above and at the rear of the brushes a b, as set forth.
2. The combination, in a boot-brushing machine, of a series of independent brushes, a. a, arranged as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification in the presence-of two subscribing witnesses.
MAX BECK. CHAS. SCHNEIDT.
