As that end of the brush is released there is, of course, nothing to hold it The device consists essentially of a container in the casing, and it slips right off of rod 19 into 12 rectangular in form having one side 13 on the hand of the user. It will, of course, be underhinges, so that it can be opened in order to place stood that the hand-lever 23 may, if desired, be the brushes 14 in the container. As shown in so constructed as to connect with a foot actuated Fig. 2, the device has an opening 15 at one side means for operating the device. The operating near the bottom thereof over which is placed a means just described are hidden from view and piece of glass 16 through which it can be ascerpreve t from Collecting dirt y a Cover 32 etained whether or not the device needs refilling cured to the side of the container by a spring with brushes. In Fig. 3 is shown a swinging catch member 33, clasping the cover over the side of the container and the other end of the 1.10
The invention also comprises a new form of brush which, as shown by the numeral 14 in Fig. 1, has depressions or indentations 35. The brushes are made with wooden backs and when sterilized have a tendency to swell considerably. It is, of course, necessary to have them held as firmly as possible in position in the container. In order to accomplish that end, the container has a ridge 36 pressed both into the side of the casing and the door, and this ridge 36 engages with the depression 35 in the side of the brush and holds each brush in alignment.
The invention also comprises the following means for securing the receptacle to the wall of a room. At the top andbottom of the back of the container is secured an extension 37 preferably about an inch and a half both above and below the top and bottom of a container. Each of these extensions has a keyhole slot 38 for engaging the head of a screw 39 which is fastened into a member, preferably of wood 40. The strip or member 40 may be nailed or screwed to the wall of a room. At each end of the member 40 is a spring clamp 41 having an aperture 42 through which extends a screw 39. The keyhole slot 38 in each of the extension members 37 fits over the screw head and the tension of the spring clamp 41 holds the container firmly in position.
I claim:-
A container for sterilized articles comprising a casing, an opening in the bottom of said casing, means at the rear of said casing and near the bottom thereof for holding one end of an article, a housing in the opposite side of said casing, a shaft journalled in said housing, an escapement member secured on said shaft for holding the other end of said article, a ratchet mounted on said shaft adjacent the escapement member, an
oscillating rocker arm pivotally mounted at the lower end of the casing, one prong of said rocker arm engaging the ratchet member, a spring controlled lever pivotally'mounted at the lower part of the casing, a link connecting said spring controlled lever and said rocker arm whereby pressure exerted on the spring controlled lever will cause the rocker arm to oscillate sufiiciently to release the lower prong of the rocker arm from the ratchet whereby one end of the article resting on the escapement member will be released'and fall through the opening and. at the same time the upper prong of the rocker arm will advance the ratchet and escapement member one step so that when pressure is released on the spring controlled lever one end of the next succeeding article will rest upon the escapement member.
EDWARD JOHNSON.
