TOOTHBRUSH HOLDER FOR TOOTH POWDER CANS OR CONTAINERS Filed July 29, 1932 INVENTOR ATTORNEY Fatentecl May 8, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE TOOTHBRUSH HOLDER FOR TOOTH POWDER CANS OR CONTAINERS 3 Claims.
This invention relates to an improved holder for tfiuth-brushes, and especially adapted for use in connection with tooth powder cans, the purpose being to provide a holder which can be 5 clamped or clinched under the flange of the top of the can, welded or soldered thereto, or made a part of the flange of the can top, the holder extending laterally from the can and provided with openings for the tooth-brush with a support at the bottom of the can, or the holder may extend upwardly and laterally with slots, without a support adjacent the bottom of the can.
The purpose of the invention is to provide a holder, which at all times keeps the brush with the can, therefore convenient and easy for use at all times.
It is to be understood that the particulars herein given are inno way limitative, and that while still keeping within the scope of the invention,
many desired modification of details and proportions may be made in the construction of the appliance according to circumstances.
The invention comprises further features and combination of parts to be hereinafter set forth,
shown in the drawing and claimed.
In the drawing:--
Figure 1 is a view in perspective of a tooth powder can showing a preferred form of holder as applied thereto, in which case the main element of the holder is adjacent the top of the can and made a part thereof, with a support adjacent the bottom.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view through Figure 1 showing the tooth-brush in dotted lines.
Figure 3 is a sectional view of a modified construction of holder with the holder inserted under the flange of the cover or top 2 of the can.
Figure 4 is a perspective view of a tooth powder can showing the holder made of celluloid and clinched or clamped under the flange of the top of the can.
Figure 5 is a vertical sectional view of Figure 4.
Figure 6 is a perspective View showing the holder constructed of celluloid and made a part of a celluloid member conforming to and adapted to fit the usual top or cover of the can, with lugs 16 to engage over a ridge or bead 15 of the can, in this type of holder the part 11 extends upwardly and the part 12 extends outwardly, with no support at the bottom of the can.
Figure 7 is a sectional view through the .upper part of the can showing the form in Figure 6 as applied.
Referring to the drawing lidentifies a tooth powder can provided with a top 2, and associated with the top, either made an integral part thereof as at 3, or clamped or clinched under the flange of the top as shown at 4 is a holder 5. This holder as in Figure 1 extends laterally and has openings 6 for the reception of the shanks 9 of tooth-brushes. Adjacent the bottom of the can is a lateral support 8, which is made integral with the can or soldered or welded thereto as at 9. This support 8 is provided with cup shape depressions 10 to receive the lower extremities of 05 the shanks of the tooth-brushes. This type of holder with the support 8 are provided for relatively short shanks of tooth-brushes.
Referring more especially to Figure 4 it will be noted that the holder extends upwardly, therefore comprising a vertical portion 11, which terminates in a lateral extension 12 provided with a plurality of slots 13, in which the contracted neck portions of the shanks of toothbrushes may engage. In this type of holder the support at the bottom of the can is eliminated, and when the brushes are arranged in position the brushes may be given a quarter turn to prevent the larger portions of the brush backs from passing through the slots, therefore preventing so disengagement of the brushes from the holder.
In Figure 6 the holder is made of celluloid or similar material and includes a member 14, which conforms to and fits the top of the can. The celluloid member 14 which conforms to and fits the top of the can hasiugs 16 to engage over the ridge or bead 15 to hold the member 14 in position.
While in the drawing the tooth brush shown in dotted lines in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 5 is disposed with the bristles facing from the tooth powder can, it is obvious that the tooth brush can be turned so that its bristles can face in any direction, and particularly in the direction of the outlet of the can. In this case the cap of the can can be removed, and the can turned in a horizontal position or slightly inclined downwardly, and then by striking the can with the finger vibrating it tooth powder can be shaken out of the can on to the bristles of the brush, while the brush is still in the holder. The brush can then be used to clean the teeth, and after washing out the I bristles it can be replaced in the holder carried by the can.
The invention having been set forth, what is claimed is: 1105 1. In a tooth brush holder for tooth powder cans,'the combination with a tooth powder can, of a holder operatively projecting laterally permanently and rigidly from the lower marginal edge of the top of the can, said laterally m projecting part having one or more openings therein for the reception of the handle or shank of a tooth brush, said tooth brush adapted to be turned to face the discharge end of the can, with the handle or shank of the brush remaining in a position substantially longitudinally of the body of the can, whereby by vibrating the body of the can tooth powder may be shaken out of the discharge end of the can upon the bristles of the brush.
2. As an article of manufacture, a tooth brush holder for tooth powder cans, consisting of a holder body, being operatively supported permanently and rigidly from the lower marginal edge of the top of the can, said holder body projecting laterally at right angles from the can and provided with one or more openings, in any one of which a tooth brush handle or shank may be positioned with the brush bristles facing toward and disposed under the discharge end of the can top, whereby upon vibrating the can tooth powder may be shaken upon the bristles of the brush.
3. In a tooth brush holder for tooth powder cans, the combination with a tooth powder can, of a holder comprising an auxiliary top corresponding to and telescopically fitting down over the can top proper, the discharge end of the can passing through a central opening of the auxiliary top, a projection forming an integral part of the lower marginal edge of the auxiliary top, said projection having a lateral portion provided with a plurality of openings, any one of which may receive the shank or handle of the tooth brush disposed with the bristles facing the discharge end of the can, whereby vibration of the can will cause tooth powder to deposit on the bristles of the brush, and means on the lower marginal edge of the auxiliary can top to overlie and engage with a rib on the can for retaining the auxiliary can top in a fixed position.
