muy v A Patented Oct. 1, 1929 UNITED STATES GORDON JOSEPH FRASER, OF I1AIEtRIGtANr COVE, NOVA SCOTIA, CANADA LIQUrn-APPLYING AND roLIsHING DEVICE Application filed March -15, 1929. Serial No. 347,410.
The invention relates to liquidapplying and polishing devices as described inthe present specication and shown in the accompanying drawings which form part of the same.
The primary object of the presentinvention is to provide a device for blackleading and polishing a stove, although it is equally susceptible of use for blacking and polishing shoes or waxing or polishing floors, etc. Distinctive features of this invention are that not only can a liquid be applied without soilv ing the hands but also its application is both facilitated and expedited.
The invention comprises a device having a polishing brush at one side and a liquid i applying pad at the other side.. A very distinctive feature of the invention is that the bulk of the liquid is stored ina container or reservoir and dispensed onto the pad by means of a valve, the liquid working its way through holes in the pad onto the surface worked upon. This valve has a lever projecting from it that is depressible by tilting the device so that the lever contacts withv a surface. Many other distinctive features of the invention will appear as the description proceeds.
Referring to the drawings: Figure 1 is a v side elevation of the device showing fragments in section.
Figure 2 is a plan view thereof.
Figure 3 is a side elevation partly in section; this view showing the device inverted and slightly tilted to open thefliquid dis-y 6) Lilie numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in each of the figures A vthroughoutthe drawings.` j
In the drawingsthe reference numerall() i denotes generally the polishing brush which is of conventional style havinga solid back 11. This brush is separateand distinct Vfrom the stock 12 and detachably clamped thereto by means of a stud 13 and wing nut 14K. The stud rigidly rises from the backill and pro? jects through a hole inthe st oclr 12 with itsV 60 end projecting into an aperturel in order to receive the wing nut 14.. The brush-is retained against swivelling jbyfmeans of ra dowel 16 that fits into an aperture in `the back of the brush.
It will be manifest vthat by this construction the brush is readily detachable for purposes 0f renewal.
It is desirable to provide a further hole,
asat 17, in the back 11 onthe opposite side 70 of the stud to that whichfreceivesthe dowel 16 with a view to enabling the brushjto be turned end forend to take care of ywearof the brush. Rigidly vand rearwardlyprojecting from the stock is' a .short handle 18 to be 75 grasped by the hand. y i 19 is the reservoir forcontaining a supply of liquid which is admitted through a fillcap 2,0 which mayA beof the screw type as lshown.` The reservoir or container is rigidlywgo affixed to the stock 12 in any desirable man-`- ner and has a bottom21 at an angleto the brush. This bottom slopes downwardly and forwardly with respectthereto.
22 is the pad which is offibrous material 85 suchas felt and of ample thickness. Y This'V pad isplaced over'the-bottomy and is of a slightly greater width than the container 19. yThe forward end projects slightlybeyond the container in order topermit of access to other-y L 90 wise difficult places. T
A series of holes 23 permit the liquid to flow from the back of the pad onto the surface being worked upon,.while a certain amount `of the liquid is absorbedlby the pad. "'A
The pad is not directly contacting with the bottom 21 but is spaced a slight distance therefrom as clearly shown in Figures .3 and 5. This allows for a compartment ontheinner side ofthe pad to accommodate the valve M10 24 that dispenses the liquid from the container. The pad is supported by means of side flanges 25, 25 depending from the con tainer and an intermediate bridge 2G. This bridge consists of a length of wire bent-substantially U-shape as shown from an inspection of Figure 4. The bight 27 is semi-circular while the ends are rigidly aflixed to the front of the container in any manner such as by soldering. The bridge inclines rearwardly in respect to the bottom of the c-ontainer as do the side flanges 25, 25. In the vicinity of the bight ofthe bridge are legs28 which are preferablyformed 'integral with the wire of which the bridge is composed.`
The pad is detachably clamped tothe side flanges 25, 25 by means of a pair of fasteners 29, V29", one at each side of the container. Eachfastener .consists of a piece of wire bent substantially U-shape and having its bight 3() inwardly offset so as to fit over the face of the pad. The endsof the fastener terminate in hooks 31 that lit into notches provided in a flange 32 integral with the container. By this construction, the pad is securely clamped between the bights of the fasteners and the side flanges 25 25. In order toprovide for assembling and removing the fasteners when attaching or removing the pad it is desirable to cut the flanges 32 so as to provide short inclines 33 leading to the respective notches. By this construction, in assembling the fasteners it is merely necessary to tittheir hoolr ends over the respective inclines 33 and force them in j the direction ofthe Inotches into which they cliclrupon reaching the summit of the inclines. j
`Cooperating with the. valve 24 is a portl 34 in the bottom of the container 19. This port has a raised circular valve seat that is` engaged by the valve 24, this valve 'preferably being provided with a. disc 35 of fibrous or other suitable material for guarding against leakage. j The valve itself is preferably made much larger than the valve-seat and consists of a plate-,like member 36 having an inwardly turned flange 37 so that when the valve `is opened it tends` to guide the liquid in the direction ofthe pad. At the back of the valve is a lip38 integral with the container and arranged in `overlapping relation tothe valve so as to catch any liquidthat finds itswayback of the valve. kThe valve is pivotally ,securedf to the container by means of a cross pin 39, the ends of which form trunnions that lit into the side flanges 25, '25.v Surrounding this crosspin isa torsional spring 40 that normally holds the valve closed. A lever 41 projects rearwardly from the valve and is limited in one 4directionby a :block 42.
In the useof the pad to dispense liquid from the container it is merely necessary to tilt the device so as to raise its `frontal end and allow the lever 41 to come into contact with the surface to be worked upon so as to depress it and thus open the valve against its spring pressure. The liquid flowing through the port 34 onto the valve and then dropping onto the pad 22 a certain amount finds its way through the holes 23 onto the outer surface ofthe pad. Y
A vent 43 is provided in the container and is closed by a valve 44 preferably of the sliding type shown in Figures 6 and 7. This valve operatesin ways 45 and has a rod 46 projecting from one end thereof and passes through a supporting bracket47, the eXtremity being bent at right angles as at 48 to enable it to be grasped. wWhen the pad is being used the valve 44 is opened to admit air through the vent 43 but at other times this valve is closed.
What I claim is 1. lIn a device of the class described, a container for holding a supply of liquid, a pad associated therewith for receiving liquid dispensed therefrom, a valve for controlling a dispensing port provided in the said container, and a lever rigidly projecting from said valve, said lever being so situated that when the device is tilted to raise the front of the pad off a supportingr surface the lever is depressed through contact with such surface.
2. In a device of the class described, a container for holding a supply of liquid, means for supporting a pad in spaced relation to the containers bottom to provide an intermediate chamber, a perforated pad supported by saidmeans, fastening means for said pad, a port arranged in the containers bottom opposite the inner side of the pad, a pivotal valve located in said chamber and spring-urged to normally close said port, and a lever rigidly affixed to the valve and projecting outwardly from the chamber.
