INVEA'TOR A TTOR NE Ys Patented june 3', 1924.
arr stares @FFQEO PRIMUS V. LINDMARK, OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI.
BRUSH nomma.
Application led July 17, 1923. Serial No. 652,137.
a citizen of the United States, residing at 'Kansas City, in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Brush Holders, of which the followingV is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in brush holders.
The present vinvention is particularly adapted to serve as aholder for supporting paint brushes in a softening liquid, such as linseed oil or the like.
Among the objects of the invention is to provide a brush holder of the above character which is inexpensive to manufacture; which may be adjusted to support-a brush in a body of liquid so that the bristles of said brush will not engage withthe bottom of the container for said liquid; which can be arranged or adjusted to accommodate brushes of different sizes or widths, and which is adapted to hold the free end of thebristles of the brushA supported thereby in a compact manner.
It is also an important object of the invention that the brush holder be adapted to be adjusted or arranged so that the same will support two or more brushes if so desired.
Other objects, and objects relating, to details of construction, combination and arrangement of parts will hereinafter appear in the detailed description to follow.
The invention is illustrated by way of eX- ample in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view taken through a pail with the softening liquid therein and showing a holder of the present invention utilized for supporting a brush within the liquid in said pail,
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view of the brush holder,
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the, device showing one section in dotted lines and particularly illustrating the supplementary and adjustable side wall .utilized in connection with the holder,
Figure 4 is a transverse sectional view taken substantially on the line 4 4 of Figure 3 when looking in the direction of the arrows,
Figure 5 is a detailed perspective view of the supplementary side wall,
Figure 6 is a transverse sectional view of the brush holder when the sections thereof are arranged to support two'or more brushes therebetween, and t Figure 7 is a fragmentaryv perspective view illustrating the sections when arranged.
as in Figure 6.
Referring tothe drawings more particularly, the holder preferably comprises the two sections 10 and 11. The section 10 may comprise an enlongated plate member 12.
which tapers toward its. lower end and each longitudinal edge thereof turned or-curved inwardly to provide the two side walls 13. Each side wall 13 is substantially U-shaped in cross sectionall contour, as shown, and terminates at its free end in a bead 14 which is preferably. formed in each instance to slidingly accommodate a rod 15. The rods 15 constitutes legs which are preferably integrally connected at their lower ends by a cross portion 16. Also this section of the holder has pivoted to its upper end a bail 17.
The section 11 comprises an elongated plate member 18 which also has each of its longitudinal edge portions turned or curved inwardly to provide the two side walls 19,
each of which is substantially U-shaped in cross sectional contour. This section is adapted to slide within the section 10, as illustrated to advantage in the drawing. The section 1-1 also is provided at its upper end with a bail 20.
rlhe section 11 is'provided with two rows lof openings 21 and 22. The rows are arranged one above the Aother as illustrated in the drawing, and each opening of both rows has its one end terminating in an enlargement` 23. What may be, termed a supplementary side wall is provided. This wall is generally designated by the reference numeral 24, and comprises a plate substantially U-shaped as shown and having its upper end terminating in a tang or extension 25. One longitudinal edge of the plate is turned upon itself, as at 26, and this turned portion carries a pair of pins 28 and 29. Each pin has its free end turned downwardly, as shown. Either of the openings 22 is adapted to receive the ins 29 and the same is true with respect to t e openings 21 and pin 28.
By engaging the pins 28 and 29 of the mem-- ber 24 in aligned openings 21 and 22, respectively, the same can be positioned upon the section 10 of the holder, as illustrated in Figure 3. The member 24 can be adjustably moved in either direction upon the section 10 as is entirely apparent.
In positioning a brush 32 in the holder ythe same can be arranged so that it is disposed between the side walls of the section 11. These side walls taper toward the lower end 5f the holder, and in this Way'the bristles of the brush are held in a compact manner and thus tend to prevent spreading of these bristles when the brush is used for Apainting or the like. Also with the brush holder positioned as in Figure 1, for supporting a brush, the legs 15 can be adjusted so that the free ends of the bristles of saidv brush do' not engage with the bottom of the pail. A
As shown in Figure 1, the brush 32 is ot such a width that the samewill nicely lit within the side walls of the Vsection 11. Should the brush be of less width than the distancev between the side walls of the sec.- tion 11, then the supplementary side wall 24 may be utilized for clamping the brush within the holder. The supplementary side wall may be positioned in an obvious manner and the same may be applied either after or before the brush has been positioned within the holder.
Referring to Figure 6, it will be seen that the sections 10 and 11 of the brush holder are differently arranged than shown in Figure 1. In this instance, the free edges of side walls 19 of section 11 are brought to engage with the beads 14 of the section 10. This-may be done by sliding the section 11 upwardly upon the' section 10, and as shown in Figures 6 and 7, the two sections so coupled or connected will provide a recep.
tacle or holder which is adapted to receive two or more brushes.v The legs 15 may be adjusted in this instance as well as in the arrangement shown in Figures 1 to 5, inclusive, and. also if desired the supplementary side wall 24 may be utilized.
While I have shown and described the preferred form ofmy invention, I wish it to be understood that I am aware of the fact that the construction, combination and arrangement of parts may be changed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention, as indica-ted by the appended claims.
1. 'A device of the character described comprising a pair of sections, each consisting of'a plate having a pair of substantially -shaped side edge portions, said sections being adapted to be arranged selectively With one of said sections in. interitting relation to the other section to provide a single brush holder or with the corresponding side walls of the two sections engaged with each other at their free edges to hold the sections in juxtaposed relation and -to thus provide a double brush holder.
2. A device of the character described comprising a pair of sections, each consisting of a plate having substantially U-shaped. side edge portions constituting a pair of side walls for the section, the side walls of one section having beads extending along the free edges thereof. and the other section being adapted to be disposed selectively in interfitting relation to said one section or with the side walls thereof in engagement at its side edges with vthe beads of the rst section to hold said sections in juxtaposed confronting relation in respect to each other.
3. A brush'holder comprising a section consisting of a plate member having the side edge portions thereof, bent substantially into U-shape to provide a pair of-side walls, and a substantially U-shaped supplementary wall supported on the plate member and adapted to cooperate with one of'said first named side' walls, said supplementary wall being bodily movable along said plate to vary the distance between said one rst named side wall and the supplementary Wall, said plate member and said supplementary wall having cooperative means for releasably holding said supplementary wall rigid with the plate member in various adjusted positions along the latter.
4. A brush holder comprising a section y consisting of a plate member having the side edge portions thereof bent substantially into U-shape to provide a pair of side walls, anda substantially U-shaped supplementary wall supported on the plate member and adapted to cooperate with one of said first named side walls, saidplate member having verticallyspaced rows ofl ,-spaced apart openings extending .transversely thereof and said supplementary wall having laterally extending pins corresponding in number and arrangement with lsaid rows of` openings and each being engageable selectively with the openings of a row,
