FREDERICK W. FISHER AND HARRY JOHNSON, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
TOOTEBRUSH HOLDER.
Application led April 1,
T o all who/m it may concewz:
Be it known that we, FREDERICK W. FIsH- ER and HARRY JOHNSON, citizens of the United States, and residents of Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan, have invented new and Improved Toothbrush Holders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to c'ontainers especially adapted to protect tooth brushes from dust and other-impuritieswhen such brushes are not in use and its object is to provide a device of this character which can be cheaply constructed, which shall be strong and durable, and which will permit the ready insertion and withdrawal of the brushes.
In the accompanying drawing, Fig. 1 is a side elevation of this improved tooth brush holder. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section thereof. Fig. A3 is a vertical section of the bottom thereof. Fig. 4 is a per- Fig. 5v is a perspective of one end of one form of partition. Fig. 6 is a similar View of another form of partition. Fig. 7` is a -perspective of a retainer. Fig. 8 is a composite ligure showing four different ways of cutting the retaining disk.
Similar reference characters referto like parts throughout the several views.
This tooth brush holder consists of .a cover 1 having a circumferential flange 2 which fits around the upper end of the shell 3. This shell may have any desired cross section, but is preferably1 cylindrical. vThe base 4 is preferably generally circular with a fiange 5 to fit around the shell 3 and has a bracket 7` by means of which it may be attached to a wall" or other support. This bracket may be of any desired size.
The base has a series of holes 8 and it supports a disk 9 of flexible material, rubber preferred, which `is formed with slits or openings to permit the introduction of the brushes 13. In Fig. 8 the section 9a is shown formed with a slit 10, the section 9" with a square hole 11 and silts 12 extending therefrom, the section 9 with a round hole 14 with slits 15 extending therefrom, and the section 9d with a round holel with slits 17 extending therefrom. Thev hole 11 and slits 12 are preferred, although theothers are also satisfactory. Each of these slits can be expanded by the toothbrushes to rmit them to be inserted. The resilience o the sheet 9 1922. serial No. 548,607.
If desired, acp'artition may be mountedV within the shell to divide the space between the -brushes 13. In Fig. 5 is shown a four winged partition formed of the angle plates 24 and the strips 25 of blotting paper orother absorbent material between them. Tongues 2 6 may be `formed on these plates to extend through holes 27 in-other plates and thus unite them, the central hole 28 permltting the passage of the bolt'20. The absorbent strips 25 may be filled with a disinfecting liquid.
Another form of partition is shown in Fig. 6 to be formed of integralplates 30, the central portions being formed to produce a groove 31 to receive the bolt 20. In each case, the partition may be used to Yhold the `plate18 down againstf'the disk 9 of resilient material. The partition shown in Fig.
' 6 may be of celluloid or'any metal, the plate 18, the cover 1, the base 4 and the angle plates 24 are preferably of thin metal, while the shell may be of glass, celluloid, metal, wood or paper, but celluloid is preferred. Notches 33 may be formed in the edges of this shell to ermit ventilation.
The detai s of construction of this tooth brush holder 'may all be varied by those skilled in theart without departing from the spiritof o'ur invention as set forth in the following claim. IVe claim:-
A tooth brush holden consisting of a shell and means to 4close its upper end, a base to support the shell, said base being formed with openings to admit the tooth brushes,
a Sheet of flexiblematerial supported by the base and formed withv slits ywhich may be expanded by the toot-h vbrushes -to permit,` their insertion, and a -partition within the`r holder comprising upright walls extending between the openings in the base, saidv walls each consisting of two thin plates and a strip of material between them adapted to absorb liquid disinfectant.. y
