The present invention relates to fountain brushes or self-feeding brushes, i.'e. brushes which are provided with a hollow handle for the water supply, opening into the ma n body of the brush carrying the tul'ts of bristlesand secured in a yielding'manner to said According tothe inventio 'i the end'of said hollow handle whichhop'ens into the brush body is adjusted in a water tight manner in said body and is adapted to be moved therein, either by rotation, or bylongitudinailsliding, inorder to inodiiy, according tothe relative, position of the handle and the brush body, the outlet of the water, by cover-j ing or uncoveringfthe various water outle vention are thus of a simple and inexpensive "responding to the flow of the'water along construction and can be'used for all cleaning phrpos'es, in particular for cleaning vehicles, shop fronts, etc.' v p i Other features of the iinvention'will appear from the following"description and claims. I
In the appended drawings, which show by way of example various embodiments of the invention, y I
j Fig. 1 is an outer view of the brush with the hollow handle removed from the brush body.
. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the brush, the handle being in the position cor-' the bristles; p, v I
Fig 3 is a bottom plan view, showing only a limited number of the tufts of bristles;

Fig: 6 is the corresponding longitudinal axial section of said modification. Fig.7]? shows the position of the handle 1n the main bodyof. the brush inorder to'provide for the discharge ofthe water inthe formbf a stream. 1 p, 7
In the constructnin' shown injFigs. l'to 4, is the head of the brush in which ar'e"dis a, I} posed the tuftsof bristles 2.. The said tufts are maintained by a star-shaped member 3 whose arms 4: respectivelysupport onetu'ft;
the said 'imember. 3 isengaged upon a screwthreaded rod 5 Wll1C l1,. 1S secured tot-he head low handle 7iis engaged itlij slight friction in a cylindrical recelssS thejjsaid head,
at the bottom whereof is'provided the pride ing member 9. Thesaid handleis secured to. the headby'meansof the socket 10 having therein the slots .11 wherebya'bayonet joint is formed with the studs 12 mounted on the ontersurfaceflof' the head. Afcoil springlil which bears upon a shoulder lflf'on the said on the brush head.
handle acts to retainthela-tter in position ill The handle comprises one 0r more bosses f or'studs 15' co-operating with notches 16- formed in head.
'The end the edge of'the recess 8 ofthe of the handle 7 1a an; head of the brush is closed'by a: plug1 8 which may'be' integral with the hand'lefjor" may be sepa ratelysecured thereto." 7
In the wall of the-hollow 'handleis an orifice 19 which," for a; determined angular position of the handle relatively, tothe head 1 of the brush; willregister with a conduit 20 m atin with the chamber 21 of the head 1. r;
-In theplug 18'is formed the duct which i I for certain angularv positionsof the handle 'may becaused to register with a conduit 23 or a'conduit 24- The latter conduit opens above a. scraper 25 madeof'india rubber or.
any other material and securedto the head of the brush; the said scraper may also be made of metal and may be cast integral with I the head. The conduit' 23 opens below the saidscraper. ela'sticmember in orderto obviate all contact between the metal part. of the brush and the objects to be clea-nedl The operation of the brush is as follows:
- The handle 7 being attached to the head by means of the bayonet socket 11, the boss 15 is engaged in one of the slots 16 in such At '26 is disposed a round manner that the orifice 19 shall not register i with the conduit20 and that the duct 22 shall not register with the conduit- 23 nor the conduit 24:; in this manner thewater entering the said hollow handle willjfind no out-let,
dueto thefrictionengagement of the said sleeve in the head and also'to thepacking joint at 9.
If it is desired to" supply water to the brush, the handle is turnedin'the head, the
handle being first drawn back against the action of the spring 13 soas toi'elea'se the boss15 from 'the notch 16in which it was engaged; when the orifice 19 registerswith- 7 the conduit'20', the boss may engageian other notch 16 in which it is maintained by the spring 13. The water will now enter the chamber 21 and will fiowitheret'romalong the bristles of the brush, passing between the branches 4 of the star-shaped member a v If the device is to be used as a hose, the
r handle is turned inthe brush' and the con duit 22 is made to register with the conduit 23. In order to cause the water to flow along the scraper 2 5, the conduit 22 is made to registerwith the'conduit 24. In
each of thesetwo positions, theboss is;
, titted closely into a-correspondingrecess16.
to rcgister'with the conduit 22 soas 'tO,
.obtain instead-0f a single streamot ,watera multiple streain' orshower such as is provlded by a Watering pot orl ke sprinkling device.
Obviously, of employiiigdthe t above-described bayonet joint forthe'inount- 'ing of thesocket 10 upon the head of'the brush, the .said socketinay be attached' by screwing, a simple fitting withsuitablefastening means or in like manner. 1 v I t The arrangement compr sing the bosses. and the reces ses.1 6,,for determining the exact positionsof the.saidhandlerelatively to the v head of the brushg m aygbe inverted, the bosses being formed upon the head and the recesses in the said handle. i
In the construction shown v 7, the head o f the brushhas a cylindrical recess 32inwhich is engaged the endof the hollow. I handle, 3' to ,whose outer end the Water is supplied by a hose or like conduit. The elements 34 of, the brush are disposed in a the casing .01" which surrounds the hollow extension of vthe head; the cap 35 is applied againstlthe shoulder 36 with the a, interposition "of theg'packing. washer/3 7 The whole is maintained by a star-shaped nut38for1ningacap which vis screwed upon the extension 31. The said nut has at the periphery aset of recesses. ineach of which is. disposed one of the brush elements 34. In the drawings, the said recesses consist of cutout portions in the nutQ38. t I i H t p It will .be observed that by screwing the nut the brush elements-are pressed against the .cap 35 and the latter is thus pressed tightlynupon the'packing 37,, The nut 38 has formed therein the apertures 39 whereby v a the water will be preferably directed towards the endof thebristles of thebrushelement the waterfenteringthe chamber 40 of the head through the conduit41 in such manner asto evacuate to the exterior the impurities whichmay begdetached when .washing 'with thev brush. -1 a 1 v The edge of thexcap 35 is provided with a round elastic band 35 for instance of india rubber. preventing allaccidental contact between thenietal and the objects to be cleaned.
into 1 The hollow handle 33 is maintained upon the head 31 by the socket 142" Which has therein theslots 43 whereby it forms a bayo- 7 net jointwith the: studs '44 formed'on the head; a spring 45 which bears upon a motion ofthese two parts.
By way of example, this 49 pivoted on the axle5O which is mounted on the saidhandlenear the part which is to be held in thehandgfsaid-g lever acts upon,
i lon gitudinal motion is shown as controlledbv a bent lever Aplurality ofslnallj ducts 24 may be made v Lee theme 51 which is attachedatthe other end to a b'o'ss 52"cast' integral with 'the head. It should be noted-that in o rderto facilitate the mountin g' and removal ofthe said handle relatlvely to V-thehead, the rod 51 is nsertet'i loosely through an, aperture 53 in the lever 49 and the latter acts upon a. nut 54' screwed on the said "rod. lVhen the handle is moved from the head, it" q -nesen1, t11e lever 49, .whilst the rod 51; remains"connected with the head.

Thernibspr studs eflwill. slide By actingbnth e'lever i accordingto the i in: theslots 48, thus preventing all. rotation ,of the head with respect to the handle.
, v Due .to this rectilinear motion, the orifice 59' will nolongerregister with the conduit 41, and the plug 55 is no longerincontact with the washer 57 The water suppliedby i the handle can nowfiow through the orifice 56; it will fill thespace between the end of the recess 32 and the end of the handle 00, and escapes to the exterior in the form of a stream through the orifice 58 (Fig. 6). If the lever 49 is released, the spring will return the parts into the position shown in Figs. 5 and 6, so that the water no longer flows through the orifice 58 but again flows along the bristles of the brush.
