R. H. GOLDMAN MANICURING INSTRUMENT Filed June 15. 1925 June 15 1926.. 1,5 9,339
Patented 1926 UNITED STATES RALPH n. eonnmm,
. mmcunme msrnmumvr.
Application filed June 15, 1925. Serial m). 37,030.
Reference may be hadto the accompanying drawings, and the reference characters marked thereon which form a part of this s ecification. imilar characters refer to slmilar parts in the several figures therein.
The principal object of the invention is to provlde a manicure instrument which can .be safely used for pushing back the cuticle around the nails .and for abrading and scraping and brushing away particles of dry cuticle as well as for removing extraneous matter from beneath the nails.
Other objects will appear in connection with the following description.
Fig. 1 of the drawings is a view in side elevation of a'manicurmg instrument embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the same as shown in Fig. 1.- v
Fig. 3 is a view inside elevation of a broken-away portion of. a manicuring instrument embodying my invention in another form.
Figs. 1, -2'and 3 are drawn on an enlarge scale.
Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. l on a still larger scale showing the broken away bristle-end of the device.
Referring to the drawings wherein the invention is shown in preferred form, my im raved manicuring instrument comprises a shaft or handle, 1, terminating at one'end in a ta ered cuticle-pusher, 2, similar to the tapere end of an orangewood stick such as is commonl used for pushing back the euticle aroun the nails and for removing extraneous matter from beneath the nails and the crevices between the sides of the nails andthe cuticle.
The stick or shaft 1, may bemade of wood, celluloid or other material of which cuticle ushers are ordinarily made.
Thes aft, 1, has u on its other end a compact body, 3, of stub y bristles terminating in wedge-form as at 4, and preferably of a size and form adapted to enter between the top of the nails and the neighboring cuticle on the fingers. o
By stubb bristles? I mean short thick bristles whic are semi-rigid so that they will not readily bend or yield laterally and may be used in place of a solid body to push back the'cuticle in somewhat the manner as, but with less danger of injury to the nail and cuticle than a cuticle-pusher made of 1,589,339 PATENT OFFICE.
OF YORK, N. Y., ASSIGNOB TO HENRY I4. HUGHES 00., INC A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
' "BEISSUED oralngewood or other solid or rigid materla The wedge-shape form of the bristles, 3, enables the end of the knot or bunch of bristles to enter between the cuticle along thetop of the nail and slightly raise the same without injury to either the nail or the cuticle. j
The cut ends of the individual stubby bristles present abrading edges which serve to abrade and wear away portions of'drycuticle while the body of bristles serves to riamove and brush away the abraded parti- In forming the wedge-shaped end on the body of bristles, I prefer to first trim the body of bristles togeneral beveled form, and thereafter to perpendicularly trim the outer end of the body of bristles so that the longest bristles shall have perpendicularly cut ends as shown in Fig. 1.
The bod of bristles, 3 may be mounted upon the s aft, 1, in any own manner.
I prefer however to make the bod of bristles readily detachable from the s aft, and for this purpose I have shown the bristles mounted in a ferrule, 6, having a screw-threaded socket, 7, adapted to detachably engage a similarly screw-threaded end, 8, on the shaft.
By this or an equivalent construction, the body of bristles can be readily detached from the shaft and replaced by another body of bristles of the same or somewhat different character, in adapting the brush to the inso tended purpose.
The bristles may be secured within the ferrule, 6, in any known manner.
In Fig. 1, I have shown the body of bristles of simple wedge form, but if desired the 05 body of bristles may be of double-wedge or V-form as shown at 3 in Fig. 3.
A brush of the character described will be found to have many uses. It may be used forremoval of extraneous matter from be tween the teeth; removal of soft tartar from the teeth, and removal of pus from sores or wounds etc. In general a brush having the described characteristics may be used wherever a gentle, abrading, scraping or pushing action is desired.
In the preferred form of brush shown in the drawings, the body of bristles is pe endicularly trimmed to oblique truncated cm at the corners as shown at 3", forming thereat vertical walls composed of the cut ends of thehristles which are well adapted to form an abrading axis.
The ends of the body of bristles are thus made of tapered form as viewed from either the side or the top, and thus combines the advantages of a wedge-shaped body with the advantages'fof flat. abrasive surfaces whereby the'brush is adapted for the above stated uses.
I do not wish to be limited to the con-- structions shown and above described, as for certain purposes of the invention, various changes may be made in the form and arrangement of various parts of the device without departing from the spirit of the invention.
What I claim as new and desire to secure as Letters Patent is 1. A device of the class described includin a shaft having at one end a compact b0 of stubby bristles terminating in wed ge-form.
2. A device of the class described including a shaft having at one .end a compact body of stubby bristles with abrading ends terminating in general wedge-form.
3. A devlce of the class described including a shaft terminating at one end in a tapered cuticle pusher and having at its other readily detachable connection with the other end of said stick, a compact body of stubby bristles in wedge-form, said ta ered cuticle pusher and said body of bristles eing adapted to be used while interconnected.
6. A device of the class described including a shaft havin at one end a compact body of stubby bristles terminating in wedge-form with obliquely truncated corners.
7. A device of the class described includin a shaft havin at one end a compact b0 y of stubby bristles tapered to a horizontal edge and having at one end of said edge a vertical abrading surface formed by cut ends of the bristles.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this 3rd day of June, 1925.
RALPH H. GOLDMAN.
