BRUSH HOLDER Filed June 15, 1928 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Inventor E2217 (@rsju la /es Attomqy Patented Apr. 1, 1930' UNITED STATES HENRY C. AULWES, OF HARTFORD, SOUTH DAKOTA.
BRUSH HOLDER Application filed June 15,
This invention relates to holders for paint and varnish brushes and has for its principal object to provide a bucket or pail having a plurality of compartments arrang'edtherein for containing a quantity of liquid of a suitable character, within which to submerge the brushes, whereby to maintain the same in a pliable condition.
Another object is to provide an overflow attachment for one of the compartments of the bucket whereby to prevent the liquid therein from exceeding a predetermined depth.
A still further object is to provide a plurality of radially disposed supporting arms 16 removably mounted at the upper edge of the bucket and from which the paint brushes may be suspended into the liquid of each of said compartments.
A still further object of the invention is to provide means for removing one of the compartments from the bucket so as to utilize the space provided therefor for the carrying of painters tools and supplies, when desired.
Another object is to provide an article of this character of a simple and practical construction, which is neat and attractive in appearance, relatively inexpensive to manufacture, and otherwise well adapted for the puraopose for which the same is intended.
Other objects of the invention will become apparent as the nature of the invention proceeds and when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a top plan view.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view, taken along the line 22 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the overflow container removably attached to the outside of the bucket.
Figure 4 is a similar view of one of the brush supporting arms.
Figure 5 is a similar View of the removable compartment, and
Figure 6 is a fragmentary sectional view, through the bottom of the bucket, and illustrating the supporting bracket for the lower edge of the removable compartment.
Referring now to the drawing indetail, wherein for the purpose of illustration I have 1928. Serial No. 285,619.
into a pair oi separate compartments 9 and 10 respectively, the compartment 9 being of a substantially increased area over the com- 7 partment 10. A center post 11 is arranged within the bucket and disposed completely within the larger compartment 9, said post being of aheight substantially equal with the side walls of the bucket. The post is preferably of a tubular construction as clearly illustrated in, Figure 2 of the drawings, in order to reduce the weight thereof. The top of the post is provided with a series of concentrically arranged openings, within which the angular ends 12 of arms 13, are inserted, said arms being extended radially from said post with, their outer ends supported upona ledge 14, secured to the inner wall of the bucket. The arms 13 serve'as' supports for the paint brushes 15 which are suspended therefrom by inserting the arms through an opening formed in the handle of the brushes. It will be apparent that the arms may be entirely removed froin the bucket, so as to permit the placing or removal of the brushestherefrom. As clearly illustrated in Figure 1 of the draw ings, the partition 8 is of an arcuate formation and curved oppositely with respect to the wall of the bucket opposed thereto.
Within the smaller compartment 10 is snugly fitted a container 16 open at its upper end and supported upon a pair of brackets 17 disposed within the bottom of the compartment 10 whereby to space the bottom of the containerabove the bottom of the bucket. At the opposite'upper ends of the container '16 is arranged a pair of upwardly extending hooks 18, providing a gripping means for lifting the container and removing the same from the compartment. The upper edge, of the container 16 is disposed substantially on a horizontal plane with the post 11,-so as to permit" some of the arms 18 to extend across the top of said container. The supporting ledge 14 for the outer ends of the arms 13 extends only throughout the larger compartment, the upper edges of the container 16 serving to support the arms associated therewith in a horizontal position. The separate compartments.
formed in the bucket are intended to permit'a segregration of the brushes used for different characters of paint work, the brushes suspended from the arm of the container 16 being used for varnish work and for this reason, the container is filled to a predetermined depth with a'quantity of turpentine within which the brush is submerged, in order to maintain the brush in a pliable condition when not in use.
The brushes suspended over the compartment 9 are used for paint work and accordingly said compartment is filled, to a predetermined depth with a quantity of linseed oil. within the compartment 9, uniformly with respect to the brushes submerged therein, I providean overflow spout 19 within the wall 'of the bucket, to permit the discharge of the catch bucket 20 suspended from the upper of the drawing, the wall of the catch bucket disposed against the wall of the bucket 5 is oil therefrom should the same exceed a predetermined level by the dripping of the paint from the brushes placed therein. Immed1- ately beneath the spout 19 is arranged a edge of the bucket by a pair of hooks 21 extending upwardly from the opposite ends of the catch bucket. As illustrated in Figure 3 shaped in conformity therewith so as to enable the catch bucket to fit snugly against the wall of the bucket 5. A dome shaped cover 23 is mounted upon the upper edges of the bucket 5 to enclose each of the compartments and the brushes suspended therein. The cover 23 is of a sufliciently reduced size to permitthe handle 7 to swing above the same in order to prevent interference between the cover and the handle while the bucket is being carried. If desired, the container 16 may be entirely removed from the compartment 10, and said compartment utilized for the carrying of tools or other painters accessories.
It is obvious that the invention is susceptible of various changes and modifications, without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages, and I accordingly claim all such inner; ends supportedby said posts and their In order to maintain the level of oil opposite ends supported by the outer cylindrical wall of the body.
2. A paint brush preservingbucket comprising a body including a bottom wall, and a cylindrical side wall, a vertically extending partition formed in the body to provide a pair of liquid tight compartments, a center post arranged within the bucket at one side of the partition and having its top provided with a plurality of concentrically arranged openings, a plurality of brush supporting arms disposed radially with respect to said posts and having their inner ends angularly disposed and removably inserted in said openings, the outer ends of said arms being freely supported by the upper edge of said side walls, a container removably arranged in one of said compartments, with certain of said arms disposed across the upper edge thereof, and handles for said container.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
