or imaladyslhandbag..
The objectof. the-present invention` is to providea. device of this character; which is neat in appearance and combines the various. elements,vr viz: brush, comb and mirror,4 in suchv a Way astto make their: combined; use most. convenient... The; brush consistsof rows of tufts. orv bm'stlesi canriedibxc individual shafts providedA at'` their two ends with' small crank-arms which enf gage ima movable:memberaclapted tobe'lengthwiseldisplaced, wherebygdepending on the direcv tion" ot movement, the tufts; are. either folded' over into a horizontal positionorare raised to. a vertical position. In their horizontal position, the; tufts are;V concealed by Va cover, which is so constructed that on being slid back for exposing the tufts, it at the same time causes them to be moved to a raised position, but not until the cover is nearly completely slid back, the cover then constituting a handle for the brush.
At the same time, the cover is` so constructed as to receive the comb, or other toilet article, such as, for example, a nail le, while the back of the casing containing the folding brush is designed to hold in place a mirror, which, if desired, can be detached and is preferably made of a suitably sized sheet of polished metal.
For a. more detailed description of my invention, I refer to the annexed drawing, on which I have shown a preferred embodiment of the device and on which Fig. 1 is a top plan view of the device, the cover thereof being shown completely slid back disclosing the brush,
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section along line II--II in Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section through the casing showing the' cover in closed position;
Fig. 4 is a transverse section along line IV--IV in Fig. 1, and
Fig. 5 is a detail showing a fragment of the device.
As shown on the drawing, the device comprises a casing l of rectangular shape, which at la and Ib is formed with small grips for affording a hold to the fingers of the hand, while the cover of the casing, shown in Figs. 1 and 2 at 2 is slid outwards. The cover is made hollow and while being longitudinally displaced is guided by the outside walls 3 and 4 of casing I. Extending parallel with said walls, being spaced therefrom,
areI provided inside the casing thin Walls tv and 6;. which have perforations therein forming bearings for the shafts of the tuft holders, Vthat constitute the folding brush. Theshafts'are indicatedl on the.- drawing as l, la, lb etc. They are each formed Withsmall cups, 8', iny which are fastened the tufts or bristles shown at 9L At both ends of each ofthe shafts l, la, ib etc. isprovided a small crank arm lil. The free ends of these crank arms are received in a connecting rod l and i2 respectively, which connecting rods extend parallel with the bearing walls 5 and the outside wallsof the casing intermediate between the two, being supported by the small crank arms above mentioned.
At the inner end of the casing there is journalled a shaft H3 similar to the brush carrying shafts, which shaft i3 alsois provided at its two ends with asmall cr-ankarm Eli and M. respectively, and intermediate its ends with two lever arms l5 and l5 respectively, which are formed at their free end with a claw, as shown at I6 in Figs. 2 and 3, to receive each a pin il and ll respectively provided on the underside of the cover 2 near the inner end thereof. To provide for greater rigidity, I preferably connect the lever arms l5 and l5 as shown in Fig. 1.
On the bottom of the casing i, slightly spaced therefrom, I have provided a flat spring detent I8 for the purpose of bearing against the dat bottoms of the cup-shaped bristle holding members 8, so as to insure their being maintained in the raised position shown in Fig. 2, when the cover 2, has been slid outwards. For sliding the coverV outwards, there is formed at its outer end a small nger-piece lil, While at the opposite outer end of the casing is provided a tab 20, made of leather, or other suitable material.
At 2 l is shown a flexible holder fastened to the cover 2 on the outside thereof by several small clamps 22 (Fig. l) so as to afford room for a small comb, or other flat toilet article, e. g. a nail le. By a small iiap 23 provided at the end of the flexible holder 2E the outer portion thereof can be lifted suliiciently to afford access to the comb or the like, normally concealed beneath the holder.
The bottom of casing i is formed along its edges with narrow anges bent over inwardly so as to form grooves for holding a mirror, shown at 24, which is preferably made of a sheet of highly polished non-rusting and non-tarnishing metal and which, if desired, can be displaced being slid within the said grooves.
The bristles nearer the outer end of the device are necessarily made somewhat shorter than the other bristles, as clearly shown in Figs. 2 and 3 for the obvious reason that they will be entirely concealed within the casing, when the cover has been slid home.
The operation of the device will be quite evident from the foregoing description.
Ordinarily, that is to say, when the cover 2 is closed, the rows of bristles assume the folded position shown in Fig, 3. As the cover` is slid back tothe position shown in Figs. l and 2, and just before the cover reaches this position, the two pins l1 and I1 provided on its underside engage in the claws I6 of the levers l5, I5' exerting thereon a pull, which by the connecting rods is transmitted to the small crank arms provided at the ends of -the brush shafts. Thereby the latter are rotated in their bearings so that the bristles are moved to the raised posi-tion shown in Fig. 2, in which position the bristles are held by reason of the fiat-bottomed cup-shaped holders bearing against the at spring detent I8.
To prevent the levers l and I5 from turning too far, I have formed in the casing an abutment shown at 25, against which the levers I5 and I5 come to rest when the cover 2 has been completely slid out to the position shown in Figs. 1 and 2. When the cover 2 is pushed home, it glides over the rows of bristles, which, at the same time, are folded over into the position shown in Fig. 3.
As shown by Figs. 1 and 2, the cover, when in i-ts outward position, forms a convenient handle for the device. The brush may either be used as a cloth-brush or as hair brush, depending on the wearer of the device.
While I have shown a concrete embodiment of the same, I do not thereby limit myself to the exact construction thereof, since the device is capable of various modifications without a departure from the essence of my invention.
I claim:
l. A device of the character described com- 5 prising an open-top casing, a cover mounted on said casing for sliding movement between a position closing the casing top and a position extending beyond one end of the casing to constitute a.Y casing manipulating handle, bearing 10 members xed within said casing parallel with its side walls and spaced therefrom, a series of shafts extending transversely of the casing and journaled in said bearing members and having cranks at their ends disposed within the spaces between said bearing members and the side walls of the casing, rods within said spaces connecting said cranks together so that said shaf-ts are rotatable in unison, tufts carried by certain of said shafts, an arm extending upwardly from one of said shafts and having a forked upperend, and a protuberance extending downwardly from the cover to engage the forked end of said arm and -to swing the same in one direction when rthe cover is slid open, and in the other direction when the cover is slid closed, thereby to rotate said shafts to effect raising and lowering of the tufts in harmony with opening and closing of the cover.
2. A device as set forth in claim l in which tuft holding elements are carried by the shafts, in which said elements have flat bottoms which extend parallel to the bottom of the casing when the tufts are raised, and in which a flat spring is interposed between said elements and the bottom of the casing to engage the at bottoms of said elements to hold them against rotation when the tufts are raised.
