' This inventionrelates to 4brushes suitable for personal, animal, or commercial uses and has for its chief object to V,provide an I article `which willbe hygienic and efficient and' which canbe readily cleaned and' is renewable or replaceable when necessary.
According to y,thepresent invention, the head or stock of the brush is composed or Y consists of a series of separate and separable units vor sectionseach carrying a competent number of bristles or the like. .These units are arranged in rows or parallel with each other within an enclosing or surrounding frame wherein they can be secured for use'by Y a sliding, hinged or other lid, flap or'closure.`
A further object of the present invention is to provide for the exclusion of dust or the like from such brushes when not in use.`
Referring to the accompanying drawings Fig. l is a side elevation of a brush suitable for personal use, constructed in accord-A ancerwith or embodying the present inven-l j tlOIl. Fig. 2 is a Fig. l. Y
Fig. 3 is across sectional elevation on the line 3- 3 of Fig. 1. f
Fig. 4 is a sectional elevation lcfa pair of i brushes enclosed in a dust etc. excluding casing.
Fig. 5 is a sectional elevation of a modified construction of brush and Figli is a sectional elevationishowing ani other modified arrangement.
ln the embodiment of the invention illustrated in Figs. 1 to 3; the body or stock of the brush is rectangular in plan, but it may be round, oval or of other desired shape or form. Y
The bristlecarrying portion or brush proper is comprised of a series of similar units or sections A which areeach provided with a single row of bristles B. These units or sections are conveniently rectangular in cross v section so that they iit snugly and evenly against or alongside each other.'A These sections may be made of wood, rubber, ebonite,
metal or other ap-propriate material.
The units A are adapted to t closely withplan ofthe brush illustrated in' f onvenientlythis casing is vadapted lto hold project, the frame Cfis furnished with an inwardly projecting rim or lledge C1 upon which the ends of the units A rest.
When these units forming the complete brush, have been assembled within the frame C, they are secured rigidly therein'andrelatively to each other by a" -closure D, which in this instance' isin the form o a lid, which slidesy ingrooves C2 in the sides and one end of the (frame C. l
' f By these means fthe; completed brush forms a rigid structure.
j When it is desired to clean thebrush thelid or closure Dean be quickly-and easily with- .v drawn or removed' and vthe units lifted out of 70 the-frame'C. They'can then be separately washed, cleaned orsterilized and returned to the casing. Likewise a worn or defectivey unit caribe `inter'changed ,orreplaced quickly andfeasily'. y Y' f lLikewise if it is desired to replace' bristle carrying units `by wire-carrying units,"'this 1operation 'can'. be performed* simply and ,:l/Vhile the brush is intended chiefly forv personal or animal use, brushes vhaving wire yin place'of hair'or like bristles may be con- 'structed for use in wool-combing or for other commercial purposes.
Inplace of a lid or closure, such as shown in Figsll-'lthe runits A may be secured in placeV ing-a framehaving a fixed top yCrand an open sidef or end as shown in Fig.'A 5. 'In `this case the units-are 'pushed yinto the frame from the open side1 which can be closed by 'ajs'liding or` hinged flap D1."
i When Ithebrush is of oval or similar form see Fig*- Gjthe lid o-r closure Dmay be hinged yat. l at vone end of the frame Cv` and when closed maybe secured vby a ycatch D25 'When'l the brush is not in use, it can be securedagainstl infection or they collection 'ci ydust by iitting into a casing as shown in CTI ' ends and t tightly therein 'so that the stocks or bodies of the brushes form the top and bottom of the casing.
By forming the bristle portion of a brush in separate and separable sections or units, the brush can be assembled orl disassembled quickly and easily, so that each unit can be separately cleaned or sterilized and to a degree not attainable with hitherto known brushes and the time occupiedin such operations is greatlyfreduced. Likewise the life time of abrush is prolonged, since a worn or defective unit4 can be removed and replaced by a good one.
Stil-l'further, the manufacture of abrush is simplified. and cost reduced, since any required forms or sizes of brushes can all be made up from a standard bristle-carrying stock. y
What I claimisz'-y l. A/hdetachably assembled brush comprising a. frame having side walls and arremovable top wall, the bottom of said frame being open, the inner `lower surface of certain of said side walls being provided withinwardly projecting flanges, a plurality of elongated separable bristle-carrying units having ltheir end portions formed to cooperate with the inwardly projecting flanges of the side walls of the frame, said units being positioned in parallel arrangement in said frame with the bristles projecting through the opening in the: bottom of said frame, said removable coverand the inwardly projecting flanges of the side walls of the frame cooperating to retain the bristle-carrying units Iin assembled relation.
2. A 'detachablyasse-mbled brush comprising a substantially rectangular frame defined by side walls and open at the top and bottom thereof, a pair o f said side walls having inwardly projecting flanges provided at the lower portion thereof, a plurality of elongated separable bristle-carrying units having their ends formed to. cooperate with Vthe-inwardly projecting flanges of the side walls `of the frame, said units adapted to be inserted through the open top of the frame thereof, a' pair of said side walls having inwardly projecting flanges provided at the lower portion thereof, a plurality of elongated separable bristle-carrying units having Ytheir ends formed to cooperate with the inwardly projecting flanges of the side walls of the frame, said unitsV adapted to be inserted through the openl top of the frame with the bristles extending through the open bottom, with the ends of said units on the inwardly extending' Yflanges and with the body portions of the elongated units arranged parallel to each other, a pair of said side walls being provided with longitudinal grooves sHoz-ABURo AKI.,
with the bristles extending through the open 't bottom, with the ends of said units on the inwardly extending ilanges and with the body j portions of the elongated units arranged parallel to each other, and a removable cover for the topv of said frame adapted to cooperate with the inwardly extending flanges carried by the side walls for retaining the bristle- Vcarrying units in assembled position. v j 3. A detachably assembled brush comprising a substantially rectangular frame defined 'by side walls and open at the top and bottom
