TOILET POWDER APPLYINGJDEVICE 0R IMPLEMENT.
Application filed July 3, 1922. Serial No. 572,745.
T 0 all whom it may concern."
Be it known that, I, HELEN ERIGSON.
implement is constructed to enable toilet powder to be applied to the back of the person using the said device, and is especially intended for use by ladies in circumstances where a maid is not in attendance to apply the toilet powder to the parts of the back which remain uncovered by a low cut evening dress. i
The device comprises essentially a pad, and a curved or'bent detachable handle of considerable length. The pad may conveniently be of circular shape, having an operative surface of deep-pile plush, or other material adapted to contain powder andt'o release small quantities thereof when dabbed or rubbed on the skin. The back of the pad may be of suede kid or chamois leather, of silver, or of any other suitable material. A wooden or other disc or stiffener may be interposed between the said front and. back.
The handle which maybe solid or hollow and made for example of wood, metal, ivory, or vulcanized rubbermay be about twelve inches long and is curved, bent, or cranked to facilitate its being used while held in one hand above the shoulder. of the user to bring the pad against and desired part of the back. The pad andhandle are connected together in a suflicientlysecure but readily detachable manner, say by means of a bayonet joint, spring clip, or a screw on the handle engaging a screw-threaded socket on the pad. The free end of the handle may be provided with an enlargementof rounded form, which renders the users rasp of the device more secure, and can, by reversing the device, be used for smoothing or'rubhing in the powder and removing any snperfluous quantity of powder which may have been applied by the pad.
In order that the said invention may be clearly understood and readily carried into effect, the same will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which F1gures l and 2 are views at right angles toeach other of a device exemplifying this invention, Figure 2 being partly shown in section. Figure 3 is'a detail of the socket used in uniting the two parts of the device shown assembled in Figures 1 and 2.
A indicates the front or operative face of the pad, a the back, a a wooden disc or stiffener enclosed, between the said parts, a and a discs of cotton wool. The handle B has at one end an enlargement b and at the other end a cross pin 29 passes through the handle and projects at each side thereof. The tubular socket C has jaws 0 embracing the disc 6& and riveted or otherwise secured thereto, and has longitudinal slots 0 at each side, the said slots having lateral branches 0 into which the pins 22 are inserted to unite the handle with the pad. This manner of attachment has the advantage, in comparison with attachment by means of screw threads on the handle and socket, that by turning one of the said parts half round when re-attaching them, the pad can be made to face the reverse way in relation to the curve of the bent arm.
What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is l. A device or implement constructed to enable toilet powder to be conveniently apan operative surface of a material adapted to contain powder and to release small quantities thereof when dabbed or rubbed on the skin, a curved or bent handle, and means for readily attaching and detaching the said handle'to and from the said pad.
2. A device as in claim 1 having reversible means for attaching the parts together, substantially as described.
3. it device as in claim l,cmnprising along handle, a central disc of stiff material, discs of soft material located on each side of the said central disc, anoperative portion and a backing conjointly enclosing all the said discs, and a tubular socket having jaws embracing the said central disc and riveted or otherwise secured thereto, the said socket having at opposite sides slots adapted to engage projections on the said handle.
HELEN ERICSON SMITH.
