Description
H. P. HOOD & G. W. JOSEPH. Device for Attaching Handles to Brushes.
Patented JuIy13,1875.
mxtnzfism. firmmtora Jm a e/9mm HARRISON P. HOOD AND GEORGE W. JOSEPH, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA.
IMPROVEMENT IN DEVICES FOR ATTACHING HANDLES TO BRUSHES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 165,582, dated July 13, 1875; application filed May 31, 1875.
. back or wooden portion of the brush, such as white-wash, wall, and window brushes.
It consists of a casting forming a socket for the reception of the handle, and another casting adapted to be driven into the hole in the wooden portion of the brush, or receive the handle of a paint-brush, the two castings being extended and forming, with a certain clamping device, a joint so constructed as to be capable of being niade'fle-Xible or rigid at the will of the operator for the purpose of adjusting and holding the handle in different positions in relation to the brush.
The accompanying drawings illustrate our invention.
Figure l is an elevation, partly in section, showing our device applied to a whitewashbrnsh. Fig. 2 is a view of the same, showing the manner of applying a paintbrush. The joint is formed with tapering surfaces 1) and c clamped together by means of a key-bolt passing through the two parts 0 c, and having a lug, c, engaging an inclined plane, a.
The part B is formed integral with a conical plate, O, and upon the under surface of this plate is the incline (1. upon which the lug c of the key-bolt- (1 works to secure the concave plate 0 to the said plate 0. The plate 0 is formed integral with the socket A and fits over plate O, as shown. A set-screw may be used, if desired, to hold the brush-handle in the socket B. A is the metal socket for the reception of the handle. B is the hollow metal stem, adapted to be inserted in the brush. The stem B may be made solid or tubular and tapering, as shown, in which lat ter case both paint and other brushes may be attached, as shown, the same device thus serving to hold large or small brushes and paint and whitewash brushes.
Our invention is of especial value for use with whitewash-brushes, as it becomes neces sary to frequently change the posit-ion of the handle in their use.
The method heretofore in common use has been to have two or more holes in the wooden back of the brush and to change the handle from one hole to another. This accomplishes the desired result but imperfectly, and takes valuable time. \Vith our device but one hole is required in the brush, and the stem B once inserted need never be removed.
By releasing the clamp thejoint O O is free to allow the brush to be placed at any angle in' relation to the handle desired, and it may then be rigidly fastened in that position by turning the key-bolt, which causes the tapering sides of thejoint to impinge, as shown in Fig. 1. No screws, nails, or clamps are required to attach our device to the brush, and it can be applied as easily as the ordinary handle. It is evident that this device can be readily attached to other devices than brushes.
What we claim, and desire to secure byLetters Patent, is V A brush-handle attachment, consisting ofa socket, A, stem B, the conical plates 0 O, incline a, and clamp 61, having lug e, as described.
