rarn'r can.
Application filed R'ovellber 5, 1926. Serial X10. 146,295.
The object of this invention isto provide a'paint can at very slight additional cost with means whereby paint will not rundown the outside of the can or collect on the 5 annular sealin structure at the top when the brush'is wipe in the usual manner against the inside rim of the can to releive it of excess 'paint. In this way a waste of paint is avoided, the outside/of the can is kept I clean,.paint marks around the place where painting is being done are avoided, and the can-seal is kept clear so that the cover can be replaced tightly. This object is ac-' complished by providing the annular top seal'structure of the can with an integral brushwiping lip spaced from the seal in the manner which will be described.
In the accompanying drawings forming part hereof:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a paint can open, showing -a'paint brush'as if in the act of being wiped against the lip; Fig. 2 is a plan view;
Fig. 3 is a section taken on the line 33 of F-igLQ, with the cover in place; and
Fig. 4. is a fragmentary vertical settional View of a slight modification.
The can body 2 has an annular top structure 3 seamed or soldered on its upper edge.
seal type, wherein the cover 4 having a circular groove 5 in its outer portion forming a rib on the-under side is pressed into tight.
frictional and tensional engagement with the portion 3, which is formed with a sealing principal seal in such a can is usually between. the inner side of the groove 6 and the outer side of the cover rib, irraddition to'which there may be sealing contacts betweenthe bottom of the rib and the bottom I ofithe groove, and at the-outer side of the groove.
However, the invent-ion is not limited to the specificsealing action.
In such a.can the top portion 3 usually terminates-at the top of the inner side of the groove 6, where the edge of the metal is simply turned over'for stifiness. With the invent on applied to such a can, however,
The can illustrated is of the so-called tripleas set forth.
the metal is continued downward at 7, below the bottom of the groove 6, then bentinwardly at 8, and then upwardly at 9, forminganother groove 10, wider and deeper than the groove 6. The upstanding part 9 is a brush-wiping lip, the function of which is clearly illustrated in Fig. 1. The bottom of the groove 10 is not solid but is out-eutfor the most part, leaving the comparatively small integral connecting portions 8, which may be four in number, as shown, or of other number. The top of the lip 9 is pref- .erably turned over at the inner side, as
shown at 11. When the brush is wiped against the lip 9 to relieve it of surplus. paint most of the J paint thus removed runs down the inner side of the lip back into the can. .A certain amount, however, necessarily passes at the outer side of the lip, where the wide groove 10 keeps it from reaching the seal or the. outside of the can body. This paint simply drips through the 0 en bottom of the groove into the interior 0 the can. I
Fig. 4 illustrates the fact that the wiping lip 9 may be extended somewhat above the top of the groove 6 for further protection.
2. A paint can having an annular top portion formed with a sealing-groove and with anothen'inne'r groove or channel the bottom of whi-his open-and the inner side of which forms a brush-wiping lip, and a cover applicable' over said wiping lip into engagement with said sealing groove, substantially as set forth.
