J. E. HILL BRUSH AND LIQUID HOLDER Filed Sept. A 13, 1925 INVENTOR. Jim/1 if, /-7'/u (Zea-4% ATTORNEY JOHN E. HILL, OE BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA.
BRIWH AND LIQUID HOLDER.
Application filed. September 13, 1923.
My invention relates to a liquid holder having associated therewith abrush or other means for applying the liquid.
An object of the invention is to provide the holder with means which will allow a full charge of the liquid to be readily ejected from the holder notwithstanding the fact that the device may be out of use for ex tended periods and a resulting tendency on the part of the liquid to congeal.
Another object of the invention is to provide the holder with fluid ejecting means which may be operated either by the hand or by pressing the device against the object to be operated upon.
A further object is to provide a device of the character described in which the liquid will be prevented from collecting upon and congealing on the brush and thus impairing the ellicienoy of the latter.
The invention possesses other objects and features of advantage, some of which, with the foregoing, will be set forth in the following description of the preferred form of my invention which is illustrated in the drawings accompanying and forming part of the specification. It is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the showing made by the said drawings and description, as I may 39 adopt variations of the preferred form within the scope of my invention as set forth in the claims.
Referring to said drawings:
Figure 1 is a plan view of my device,
l igure 2 is a central longitudinal sectional view thereof.
Figure 3 is a transverse section of the device taken on the line 3-8 of Figure 2.
Figure 4ris fragmentary plan view of a slightly modified form of the device.
The holder of my invention may be used in practically all instances when it is desirable to apply a liquid to a surface and then polish the same. However, in the present form of the invention the holder is particularly adapted for polishing shoes and other articles made of leather. As illustrated the holder is of the general form of a common shoe brush and comprises a body 5 preferably formed of metal and having a. chamber (3 in which the polishing liquid is arranged to be contained, an opening 7 serving as a convenient inlet for the liquid. Arranged at the foiwvard end of the body is a block 8 having formed therein an outlet passage 9 through which the liquid is adapted to be Serial No. 662,543.
discharged. Suitable bristles 12 are preferably held in the block and serve as a means of spreading the liquid on the surface which is to be polished.
Extending longitudinally through the body is a stem 13 provided adjacent its forward end with a valve 14L having conical and cylindrical portions 16 and 17 which are adapted to respectively engage correspondingly shaped seat portions 18 and 19 formed in the outlet passage 9. Most of the liquid polishes, particularly for leather, have a tendency to congeal near the surfaces with which they contact, however, with this design of valvethe liquid, contained in the seat portions of the passage, even though partly congealed, will be forced through the pass: W when the valve is moved from open to closed position. Means are provided preventing the liquid, which may have congealed at the mouth 21 of the passage 9, from clogging the same and thus impairing the flow of liquid into the passage. As here shown the stem 13 is provided with a collar 22 which is in one sense a valve and is adapted to engage the inner side of the block and prevent communication between said mouth and the chamber when the valve is closed. In this manner when the stem is drawn back to open the valve, any congealed portions of the liquid at said mouth will be shoved back and the uncongealed liquid will have free access thereto.
The valve is normally held in closed po= .ition by a suitable spring 28. In Figures 1 to 3', this spring is secured to an arm 20 of a lever 24 fulcrumed at 25 and the other arm 26 of which is connected to the stem end 27 which projects from the body through an air inlet opening 28. It will now be clear that by pressing the arm 20 inwardly the valve will be opened, and by then releasing Said arm the valve will be moved to eject a charge of the liquid. It is to be noted that the position of the arm 20 lends itself for convenient operation by one of the lingers of the persons hand in which the device is held.
The stem is preferably provided with a re duccd portion 29 which is adapted to lie in the inlet opening 28 when the valve is open, thus allowing the air to enter the chainl'ier, However, when the valve is closed a soft gasket 31 on the stem engages the opening and thus seals the chamber.
Means are provided for causing a charge of the liquid to be ejected from the outlet passage by merely pressing the forward end of the holder against and releasing it from the object to be operated upon. Attached to the portion 32 of the stem, which extends through the passage and projects outwardly from the block is a button 33 which when properly pressed against an object, causes the valve to unseat, and upon being withdrawn from said object a charge of the polish will be ejected from the passage. By referring to Figure 2 it will be noted that the dauber bristles 12 while being located adjacent the outlet passage, lie out of the path of the discharging liquid. Further it will be noted that the end of the stem portion 32 is bent so that the button 33 is out of line with the passage. In this way when the charge is ejected "from the passage, it can be directed so as to impinge directly on the surface to be operated upon. This feature, as can readily be understood, is of particular advantage when ejection of the liquid is made through the agency of the button. [in other advantage 0t positioning the bristles out of the path of the charge, is that the liquid will not collect and congeal on the bristles and thus impair their efiiectiveness.
Fixed on the bottom of the holder body is a brush 3'? suitable for polishing and here shown in the form of a felt pad. The latter as well as the bottom plate 38 ot the body projects rearwardly so as to prevent the rear end of the stem from touching the object while it is being operated upon.
In order that the compactness of the holder will not be impaired bythe protrusion of the lever, I preferably form a depression 39 in the body and arrange the arm 20 there- In Figure 4, the means for operating the valve by the lingers is eliminated, a spring ll secured to the body serving to provide the desired pressure for normally holding the stem in forward position.
It will be noted that owing to the fact that the stem portion 32 moves through the passage whether the valve is opened or closed, that said passage will always be kept clear.
I claim:
1. In a device of the character described, a hollow body adapted to contain. a liquid and provided with an air inlet opening and a liquid outlet opening at the opposite ends of said body, a movable stem extending through said openings and projecting from the opposite ends oi? said body, a valve on said stem arranged to normally close said outlet opening, means on said stem arranged to close said inlet opening when said outlet is closed and to open the same when the outlet is open, and a dauber carried by said body adjacent said outlet.
2. In a device of the character described, a hollow body adapted to contain a liquid and having an outlet adjacent one end thereof, dauber carried by said body adjacent said outlet, a valve normally closing said outlet, and. means fixed to said valve projecting beyond said dauber adapted for displacing said valve.
3. In a device of the character described. a hollow body adapted to contain liquid or the like, and provided with an outlet adjacent one end thereof, a spring pressed valve i'iori'ually closing said outlet, means adj aeent the other end of said valve for opening;- the same, a dauber adapted for spreading said liquid and fixedly positioned on said body adjacent said outlet, a stem secured. to said valve and extending through said outlet, and a button fixed to the outer end of said stem in spaced relation from said dauber adapted to be depressed to displace said valve.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand at Oakland, this 31st day of August, 1923.
