Description

M. c. BARTON BRUSH Filed Dec. 12, 1930 INVENTOR.
ITI E. BHRTUN ATTORNEYS.
Patented Mar. 14, 1933 hairs!) STATES PATENT MELVIN C. BARTON, OF YUBA CITY, CALIFORNIA BRUSH Application filed December 12, 1930. Serial No.'501,976.
A further object is to produce a device wherein a separate brush body may be attached to the handle of the brush, thereby reducing the cost of replacing the brush element.
A further object isto produce a device wherein the brush may be turned end for end as the bristles at one end have become worn.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure 1 is aside elevation of my improved brush,
Figure 2 is a top plan View of Fig. 1, and
Figure 3 is a bottom plan view of Fig. 1.
In the. spotting of garments it has been customary to employ a brush having a curved handle, the brush and the handle being integral, with a result that as the bristles of the brush used, become worn at the forward or rubbing end of the brush, the remaining portion of the brush, while still good, must be thrown away. As these brushes are expensive and only last a week or so, it is obvious that many brushes are used with an additional expense to the user.
Applicant has devised a brush wherein the handle is on an angle with respect to the brush and therefore, conforms with the usual standard brush, as to form, but also has the advantage of enabling the operator to turn the brush element end to end with respect to the handle or to replace one used brush with anew brush.
In the accompanying drawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a pre-v ferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 5 designates a handle which 1s preferably formed by bending a metal blank into a substantlally rectangular shape. This handle has an extension 6 which is bent as at 59 7. This extension 6 has its free end bent so as to form a hook 8 which is adapted to engage a notch 10 formed in one end of the back 9 of the brush which carries bristles 11. A similar notch 12 is formed in the opposite end of the back and is adapted to be engaged by the nose 13 of a wedge block 14:. A bolt 16 extends thru the wedge 14 thru the exten sion 6 and thru a bridge piece 17. This bridge piece engages the handle 5 at the point 18 and the extension 6 at the point 19, the re- 91 sult being that as the bolt 16 is tightened, the handle 5 and the extension 6 will be sprung in a direction which will cause a gripping of the back 9 of the brush between the hooks 10 and the nose 13 and will thus hold the brush securely attached to the handle. The dotted lines in 1, illustrate the manner in which the bristles become worn, that is,
the bristles toward the left of the drawing will wear away more rapidly than the bristles T9 to the right of the drawing. When the bristles have been worked to a point where the material upon which the spotting brush is used is liable to be damaged by theback 9, the bolt 16 is loosened and the brush as a 11 whole is turned end for end and again. secured by tightening the bolt 16, or if desired to replace with a new brush, the same can be readily accomplished.
It will thus be seen that I have produced #39 a brush which will perform all the objects above set forth and one which will materially reduce the cost of spotting to the cleaner.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is tol 5 be taken asa preferred example of the same and that various changes relative to the mate rial, size, shape and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described my invention, I claim The combination of a brush and a handle,
said handle having an extension formed thereon said extension having a hooked extremity, said brush comprising a back portion carrying bristles therein, said brush having grooved ends, one of which is adapted to be engaged by said hooked extremity, a block 0 interposed between said handle and said brush said block having a nose adapted to engage the other groove formed in said brush, said extension and said handle being angularly disposed With relation to each otherand a bridge piece superimposed on said handle and said extension and engaging said handle and said extension at its ends only and a clamping member for holding said bridge 'piece in engagement with said handle and said extenslon.
In testimony MELVIN C. BARTON;
