Description
June 18, 1929. F, v RALSTON l 1,717,891
APPLICATOR AND CLEANER Filed Nov. 13, 1925 ATTORNEY Patented June 18, 1929.
UNITED STATES FLORENCE V. RALSTON, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
.APPLICATOR .AND CLEANER.
Application led November 13, 1925.
The device, the subject of this invention is intended to be used for applying a cleaning fluid and thereafter distributing or rubbing the fluid into the device to be cleaned and the more particular objects of my invention are to provide a device for cleaning the keys of a typewriter.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device that may be inserted into a bottle and to provide means for closing the mouth of the bottle. For this reason the applicator is more or less permanently secured in a cork.
A still further object of my invention is to r provide a device of the class described of simple construct-ion and design and one that can be manufactured so cheaply that it can be discarded when the bottle is emptied.
The following is what I consider the best means of carrying out my invention and the accompanying drawing should be referred to for a complete understanding of the specification which follows.
In the drawing Fig. 1, shows my completed device in side elevation. 1
Fig. 2, is a blank from which the holding member is formed.
Figs. 3, 4, and 5 show the forming of the holding member.
Fig. 3, shows the sides, which have been bent up.
F ig.' 4, the sides have been brought together and the reinforcing member bent inward upon the next adjacent side.
Fig. 5, is a side elevation showing the holder as it will appear after the inal bend is completed and before the addition of the applicator and brush.
Similar reference numerals indicate like parts in all the figures where they appear.
At 10, I show an ordinary cork adapted to be applied to the neck of a bottle and inserted into the cork is a part'which I term f a holder and which is indicated as a whole by the reference character 11.
Engaged between the jaws 12 and 13 of the holder is an applicator 14, which I prefer should be formed from a sheet of felt of suitable thickness and certain indents 15, 16 and 17 secure the felt within the aws.
In Fig. 2, I show a blank from which the holder is formed. This blank may be formed from a piece of quite thin gauge tin and as formed, the blank will be of oblong shape Serial No. 68,804.
as shown and provided with two parallel extending tongues of different widths, as shown at 24 and 25. The tongues are spaced apart, a small sliver of metal being removed, to form the slit 23.
lVhen the blank is stamped out, the notches 21 and 22, as well as the squared perforation 26 will be formed.
The irst bending operation turns up the sides, or in other words, the tongue 24 and about one-half of the tongue 25, to form a channel as shown in the end elevation in Fig. 3.
In the second bending operation, the turned-up portions 24 and 25 are brought together and the balance of the tongue 25, which may now be termed 25, is bent upward or outward as shown in the drawing, to engage along the outer side of the tongue 24. The device will then have the appearance of the member shown in Figs. 4 and 5 and I may later taper the end, as indicated by the dotted lines 27 in Fig. 5 and the projecting holding tongues or fins 28, also shown in Fig. 5, may be provided.
My device is now ready to receive a brush, the hooked ends of which are engaged in the V- shaped slots 21 and 22 and the applicator which is placed between the jaws 12 and 13 formed at the lower end of the blank by the bending up of the sides thereof.'
IVhen the applicator 14 is secured in position, the device is completed by being inh serted into a cork as shown at 10.
Modifications may be made as fall within the scope of the appended claim without departing from the principle or sacrificing the advantages of the invention.
Having carefully and fully described my invention what I claim and desire to obtain is A device of the character described comprising a metallic member having a plurality of integrally formed strips of different widths, said strips being brought together for a portion of theiru length, one strip extending around the other to retain said strips engaged and to add rigidity, a channel being formed in the metallic member beyond the strips and an applicator retained in the channel.
Signed at the city, county and State of New York, November, 1925.
