UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ALEXANDER THOMSON, OF AMES, IOWA.
IMPROVEMENT IN BRUSHES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 157,244, dated November 24, 1874; application filed August 4, 1874.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ALEXANDER THOMSON, of Ames, county of Story and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brushes, of which the following is a specification:
The nature of my invention relates to the material of which the brush fiber is composed, and the manner of forming it into a complete brush.
The accompanying drawings represent my invention.
a, Figure 1, is a handle, having a ferrule, b, fastened to it by means of tacks or rivets, the handle a passing about half-way through it, thus leaving a space to receive the fiber. 1 2 3, &c., are pieces of bass-wood bark, one end of which is reduced to a fiber, leaving the other end solid, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. The solid end of these bundles of fibers is placed in the ferrule, and secured by means of tacks or rivets, as shown in Fig. 1; or, when used for dust-brushes, they are vput in holes and secured by means of glue or tacks.
These brushes are especially adapted for glue, paste, and dust brushes, having the advantage of greater durability, as the fibers do not come out while being used, as is the case with hair brushes, especially when heated. They also avoid the annoyance of removing hairs which workmen experience while using hair brushes.
What I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent of the United States, is-
A brush made of the bark of bass-wood, (Talia Americana, in which the solid end of one or more pieces is inserted and secured in the socket of a handle, the rest being reduced to a fiber, as set forth.
ALEXANDER THOMSON.
