UNITED STATES PATENT QFFIG'E.
PHILIP]? SOHAUBLE AND LOUIS DOHM, OF ELIZ ABETH, NEW JERSEY.
IMPROVEMENT IN SHAVlNG-CUPS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 170,773, dated December 7, 1875; application filed September 11, 1875. I
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, PHILIP? SGHAUBLE and LOUIS DOHM, of Elizabeth, Union county, New Jersey, have invented a new and Im proved ShavingGup, of which the following is a specification:
Our invention consists of a shaving-cup having means for securing the soap, so that the cup may be turned upside down, for pouringout the water for cleaning it, without the loss of the soap, and without the necessity of holding it by the brush or by the hand, as is now necessary when cleaning the cup, thus saving considerable trouble and greatly facilitating the work.
The plan which we have adopted in this case consists of screw-threads in the bottom or lower part of the cup, with corresponding threads molded in the soap, to screw it into the cup by a little forked'key or other suitable instrument; but it may be fastened by a screw going through the bottom of the cup and screwing into the soap; but this might not be so good a plan, as the screw would be in the way, to some extent, when the soap wears down low, although the screw might be short.
Other methods of fastening may also be employed.
Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of our improved shaving-cup and the soap fastened in it, the section being taken on the line as as, Fig.
2. Fig. 2 is a top view.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A is the cup, which may be of glass, earthenware, or any other approved substance. B represents the screw-thread in the lower part to secure the soap, and 0 represents the soap, which is, in this example, molded with suitable screw-threads, to fit the threads of the cup and be screwed in by a wrench or key, D.
This plan is probably as simple as any, but other contrivances may be employed.
By thus securing the soap in the cup, the
. cup can be more readily cleaned out than when the soap is loose and free to slip out, requiring to be held in while washing.
Having thus described our invention, we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A shaving-cup prorided'with an internal screw-thread, or other equivalent means for securing and retaining the soap when the cup is inverted, substantially as specified.
