My invention; relates to an improved brush and lacquer container.. I s: For simplicity,the.term lacquer. connotes any medium of the character of lacquer, paint or other covering medium in which is incorporated a vaporizable constituent. Pursuant ,to preferred forms; my invention embodies an outer container, suitable meansLdisposed within the container in whichis received 1"0 any lacquer and suitable means disposed within the container for. removably suspending a brush inposition to immerse the hairs of the brush withthe lacquer, the container being provided with ajremovablelcover. v
The cover is preferably arranged relative :to the body-of the container to reduce to a minimum the air space above. the lacquer when'the cover is in its closed position; I
,Preferred forms of my invention also embody suitable means for retaining any lacquer which may be accidentally dropped or when the brush is wiped at the edge of the container, 7 g The brush supporting and immersing means embodies preferably. a resilient clip for directly engaging thehandle of the brush, to afford a dependable looking or clamping means accommodating varied sizes of brush handles within'a given range. v .The brush Supporting and immersing means is preferably, related to apart of the container whereby upon grasping the handle of the brush accompanied by a slight lifting of the brush, the arm of the brush supporting and immersing means'is automatically moved to its idle position to"afford' full access to the lacquer contained in the jcontainer. 1 .yFurther features and objectsof my invention will be more fully understood fromthefollowing detail description and the accompanying'drawings, in'which V Fig. 1 is a central vertical section of one preferred form of my invention. 7
Fig. 2 is a top plan'view taken on line 2-2 of Fig. l, the cover being removed, This view also shows the brush supporting and immersing means moved from brush supporting position to its idle position. i

Fig. 7 is a horizontal sectional View on line 'l-! on Fig. 6.
- Fig.8 is a detail plan view of the blank from which the resilient brush supporting'member is formed by bending.
i Fig. .9 is a top plan view of Fig. 6, the top being removed, and the brush supporting member moved outwardly of the container; and
- Fig. 10 is an exploded view showing in detail the upper portion of the container and the insert member bearing the brush supporting member.
Referring to the embodiment shown in Figs. 1, 2, 3, the container ll] may have any desired configuration. The cylindrical configuration illustrated inthe drawings is Well adapted for the purpose. .Within the container I is an inner container II, the inner container H'being arranged to contain the lacquer. The inner container H is preferably removable from the outer container 10, as by frictional fit therein as will appear more fully hereinafter.
. Preferably, the inner container II is provided with a suitable means for receiving any lacquer or other medium dropped accidentally beyond the container, or to receive any wipings from the brush, as whenit is desired to remove a loose hair or other foreign material from the medium on the brush and for any other purpose. Such means is illustrated in Figs. 1, 2 and 3 as a ring or trough I3 secured to the exterior of the inner container ll, and arranged preferably to frictionally engage the inner face of the upper edge portion of the outer container In. The bottom l3a of such trough may be imperforate as shown; or the bottom may be perforate, to afford passage lowerly therethrough of the material, and also to afford passage upwardly therethrough of the vapor of the vehicle of the lacquer provided by pouring a quantity of the vehicle in the space between theinner Wall'of the outer container and theouter wall of the inner container. Desirably, as shown in Fig. 1; the space between the inner container l I and the inner wall of the outer container l0 vmay be filled with cotton waste 2| or the like containing the vaporizable ingredient or ingredients of the. lacquer 2D, to thuscompensate for loss of the same arising upon repeated removal of the cover l8 from the container and during the stage of use of the container.
The cover [8 of the container. may be of any suitable form. Preferably,- the cover is contoured to reduce the space within the cover to a minimum, an advantageous form of the cover being that shown in the drawings, namely, in general simulation of the top of a bottle.
A brush in indicated at I9, the handle [9a of which is forced into the free ends I4a of the clip means I4, whereby the handle I901. and therewith the brush as a whole, is securely suspended by the clip means I4, and safeguarded against displacement sideWise, as well as downwardly. The clip means I4 is appropriately spaced relative to the inner container II to properly position the hairs I9b of the brush within the lacquer 20 in the container I I.
It will be observed that upon placing a brush" ticularly adapted for the association of a single brush with the container, thus affording minimum overall dimensions of the top to thereby reduce the volumetric capacity of the cover to a minimum, thereby correspondingly restricting the extent of evaporation of the vaporizable constituents of the lacquer or other medium contained in the container portion, and also reducing to a minimum the costs of material and sembly. In such advantageous embodiments of my invention, the brush is disposed, as shown in the illustrated types of my invention, substantially centrally of the container portion.
The embodiment shown in Figs. 4 and 5 comprises parts corresponding to those of the embodiment shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3, and such common parts are indicated by like reference characters. An essential difference in the construction shown in Figs. 4 and 5 is the employment of an open bottom member I! in lieu of the stated closed bottom container II; also the dual friction retaining means and annular mem-' ber I3 having an open bottom between the spaced members I3a', in the manner of a spider. Such means is preferably combined to serve as suitable means for frictionally retaining the inner container II within the outer container III. As is embodied in the type of my invention shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the aforesaid dual means is in the form of an annular cup-like member I3, which is open at its top I3a and closed at its bottom I3b to which is formed the flange l3c which is soldered, welded or otherwise suitably secured to the outer face of the inner container I I.
The brush supporting means illustrated in the drawings is a preferred feature of my invention, and comprises a clip member I4 formed of spring brass. Advantageously, the member I4 is formed of a single strip of brass, the end portions of which are indicated at Ma, la, the intermediate portion Mb passing between the turneddown ears I4a. of the keeper member I5, which is suitably hinged relative to an upper portion of the inner container I I. Such hinge is preferably removably secured, as by means of the reversely bent member I6 which may be blanked out and formed at opposing intermediate portions IGa, I 6a as ears, through which the pintle I1 is passed to complete the hinge.
As is indicated in Fig. 2 in full outline, upon insertion of a brush handle I9a within the free ends I la, I40. of the clip I4, such ends Ma, Ma, are displaced relatively to one another as appears from a comparison of these members in their normal positions as shown in dot and dash outline in the right of Fig. 2 with their full line position having the brush handle I9a inserted therebetween.
In the use of commercial embodiments of my invention, the act of grasping the brush handle I9a and movement of the same laterally for release from the clip I4, see Fig. 1, is accompanied by a slight upward movement of the brush handle I9a, whereby the rebound of the free ends Ma, Ma of the clip I4 ensuing upon final withdrawal of the brush handle, effects the swinging upwardly and outwardly of the brush suspending assembly, i. e., clip I4, namely from its full outline indicated in Fig. 2 to its dot and dash outline indicated to the right in Fig. 2.
The form of my invention shown in Figs. 6 to 10 is simplified for quantity production; like parts are designated by like reference characters.
The container I0 corresponds substantially to the types of container hereinabove described; the container, as shown in Figs. 6, 7 and 10, is provided with an indentation Illa, preferably on opposite sides, for cooperation with the respective bayonet or other locking slot I3C carried by the annular insert member I3.
The brush carrying member 22 is advantageously formed of resilient sheet material, such as brass, and blanked to the outline shown in Fig. 8, the full lines indicating both the exterior contour'and thelines of severing. As appears below, the dotted lines shown in Fig. 8 indicate lines of bending. The projecting portions 22a ultimately form the resilient elements or tongues for receiving and retaining the handle I911, of the brush, namely by bending the blank downwardly at the lines indicated by the respective dotted lines 22b and further bending the outward portions of the tongues 22a curvedly toward one another to assume their positions indicated in Fig. 9. The blank portion 220 is bent downwardly along the dotted line 22d to serve as a. brace between the resilient tongues 22a.
The blank 22 may also be punched to form the perforations 23, for receiving a pintle or hinge pin 24 passing through the perforations 23 and also through the perforations in the ears I3d of the annular insert member I3.
Whereas I have described my invention by reference to specific forms thereof, it will be understood that many changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
I claim:
1. A combined self-enclosed brush and lacquer container comprising a container portion having an open top, means carried by the container portion for supporting a brush vertically above and substantially centrally relative to the interior of the container portion, said brush supporting means comprising clip means adapted to directly engage the handle of the brush, means for mounting said clip means to effect displacement of the same from its brush supporting position above the central portion of the container portion to a position laterally of its stated brush supporting position, and a cover for closing the open top of the container portion and embracing the handle of the brush when supported by said clip means in its brush supporting position.
2. A combined self-enclosed brush and lacquer container comprising a container portion having an open top, a hollow bottom portion surrounding in spaced relation said container portion, means carried by the container portion for supporting a brush vertically above and substantially centrally relative to the interior of the container portion, said brush supporting means comprising clip means adapted to directly engage the 10 handle of the brush, means for mounting said clip means to efiect displacement of the same from its brush supporting position above the central portion of the container portion to a position laterally of its stated brush supporting position, and a cover supported by said hollow bottom portion for closing the open top of the container portion and embracing the handle of the brush when supported by said clip means in its brush supporting position.
