C. IAGGI SOAP GRATER 4 Filed Oct. 5, 1 954 '2 Sheets-Sheet 2 -INVENTOR. CHARLES IAEEl ATTORNEY.
Patented Apr. 14, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 .Claim.
pensing the grated soap from a bar of ordinary soap which grated soap is caught in the hands as it drops from the grater.
Another object of the invention is to provide a self-contained grater which holds a bar of soap to be grated and which also provides a sanitary and useful container for the bar of soap when not in use.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a soap grating and dispensing device that is compact, neat in appearance, is durable and that may be economically manufactured.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a soap grater that may be easily installed in any convenient place and that will conserve a bar of soap placed therein.
A still further object of the invention is to produce a grater and dispenser that positively and economically reduces a bar of soap to powder form.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent with reference to the subjoined specification and the accompanying two sheets of drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved grater and dispenser shown detachably secured to a wall or the like of a structure;
Figure 2 is an end elevation of the device showing the bar soap container and grating element;
Figure 3 is a bottom plan view of the device looking into the grating mechanism;
Figure 4 is a vertical sectional view of the device taken on the line 4-4 of Figure 2 and showing a bar of soap positioned therein, the soap grating elements and the spring for exerting downward pressure on the soap;
Figure 5 is an enlarged sectional detail of the grating element as seen looking in the direction indicated by the section line 5--5 in Figure 4; and
Figure 6 is a plan view of the grating element .per se. 7
The present application covers an improved form of device over that disclosed in my copending application, filed June 5, 1934, Serial No. 729,076, and it is desired that the present application supplant said former application.
Referring particularly to the drawings and especially to Figures 1 and 2 thereof it will be noted that the grater and dispenser includes a rectangular container or casing 8 adapted to be mounted on suitable supporting brackets 9 and I0 which brackets may be mounted on the wall H in any convenient place.
The upper end of this casing is provided with a cap member I2 held in place thereon by means of screws l3, Figures 1, 2 and 4.
Referring to Figure 4, it will be noted that a bar of soap I4 is mounted within the casing and a plunger I5 rests above the soap said plunger being spring pressed against the end of the soap by means of a coil spring I 6 mounted in the casing between the plunger and the cap l2.
The lower end of the casing is provided with the grating mechanism I1 and this mechanism includes a sliding element having grooves l8 and i9 adapted to receive the tongues 20 and 2| formed on the lower open end of the casing 8.
A groove 22 is formed in the upper face of the grater and a screw 23 arranged on one lip of the casing and extending into said groove limits the lateral movement of the grating element, Figures 2 and 6.
The grating element I'l includes a dispensing nozzle 24 having a dispensing mouth 25 and the grating elements 26 embody a plurality of hack saw blade sections, said blades being diagonally arranged in the grating element, as shown in Figures 3 and 6 and with alternate blades having their teeth in opposed. relation.
The soap is ground or granulated by moving the nozzle 24 horizontally back andforth on the tongues 20 and 2| of the-casing. This horizontal movement causes the diagonal blades 26 of the grater to pass back and forth in a diagonal granulating or grating action thus grating the lower end of the soap bar and allowing the grated or granulated soap to drop into the hand of the operator, the while the operator holds the palm of the hand over the nozzle opening 25,
Due to the diagonal or oblique arrangement of the grating blades 26 the soap is more easily and properly ground with less effort on the part of the operator than if the blades were arranged crosswise as this diagonal or oblique arrangement gives the blades a better cutting action on the soap.
I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States the following:-
In a grating and dispensing device of the class described including a casing, a dispensing nozzle slidable across the lower end of said casing, a grating device carried by the upper portion of the nozzle, said grating device embodying a plurality of diagonally disposed saw blades, said blades having their teeth arranged in opposition to each other as to alternate blades.
CHARLES IAGGI.
