Description
I Nov.- 2, 1937." R. D. HOLT rnnwme SHIELD Filed Sept. 15, 1936 WITNESSES.
f 5 E MD h Mu Y a B R W ATTOR N EYS Patented Nov. 2, 1937 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 4 Claims.
The present invention relates to painting shields I and has for its object to provide a simple device for preventing the accidental. spreading of paint on a surface adjacent to a surface to which paint is being applied.
' To the above ends the present invention consists of the painting shield as shown in the accompanying drawing and set forth in the following specification and claims.
In the drawing- Fig. 1 shows in perspective an illustration of the construction and mode of operation of one form of a painting shield embodying the invention; I I
Fig. 2 is an end view of the painting shield shown in Fig. 1 slightly modified;
Fig. 3 is an end view of a painting shield similar to that shown in Figs. 1 and 2 but slightly modified;
Figs. 4, 5, and 6 show in perspective other modified forms of painting shields embodying my invention.
Similar reference characters will be employed to designate corresponding parts.
As shown in Figs. 1 and. 2, the painting shield comprises a pressure bar I, a rest plate 2, and a shield plate 3, the rest plate being upon one side of the pressure bar I and extending at right angles thereto, and the shield plate 3 extending laterally from the opposite side of the pressure bar I with the effective or operating shield l inclined at an angle as indicated in all of the views of the drawing.
The device in all forms shown has its main or operating parts formed of a single piece of sheet material, preferably sheet metal, and as clearly indicated in all of the views of the drawing the edge 5 of the shield 3 is in the same plane as the rest plate 2. As shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing,
when the rest plate 2 is held against a window pane 6 within the sash I, the effective edge 5 of the shield plate will contact with the surface of the window pane at the same time the rest plate 2 contacts therewith, and may be positioned so that along its entire edge 5 it will contact with the base of the surface being painted, such base in Fig. 1 being a beveled cleat 8 which holds the window pane in the sash. Of course it is understood that in painting the molding or woodwork projecting from a wall surface of a room, the device will assist in confining the application of paint to the wood or other trim protecting the adjacent wall surface.
The pressure bar I is formed integrally with the other parts of the device by bending the material from which the device is made to produce the upstanding parallel members which may be spaced slightly from each other as indicated in Figs. 1, 2,
3, 4, and 6. At the top the members 9 in the device as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3, are formed into 5 a rollor bar l0 extending the full length of the pressure bar 1. In Figs. 1, 2 and 3 the shield plate 3 is formed by an upstanding wall ll forming a continuation of a horizontal wall l2, the latter being in the same plane as the rest plate 2 and 10 formed by bending one of the members 9 outwardly. By this arrangement a certain amount of elasticity is given to the members of the device when brought in contact with a surface to be protected with the edge 5 against an adjacent surface 1 to be painted. By making the horizontal rests l2 of different widths asindicated in Figs. 1, 2, and 3, the extent of the bearing surface [2 orthe width thereof may be varied as shown.
In the modification shown in Fig. 4, the up- 20 standing members 13 of the pressure bar It are united by a relatively sharp bend l5 and instead of being provided with the tubular roll II) the upstanding members l3 are cut out near the edge l5 as indicated at It, and if desired the metal 25 formed by cutting the opening IS in one of the upstanding members [3 may be roll d as indicated, forming a smooth grip or handle I! at the top of the pressure bar. In this form of the device the member I2 is bent inwardly as indicated 30 at It and then outwardly to form the inclined shield plate #2.
In Fig. 5 the upturned members 9 forming the pressure bar I are cut away on inclined lines at each end, the tubular portion In being shortened 35 as compared to Fig. 1. The beveled edges at each end will be united by a rolled lap seam It. In this form the intermediate rest i2 is much narrower than as shown in Figs. 1 to 4, and the shield plate extends for the greater part of its width in 4 a raised horizontal plane as shown at 20, its forward edge being sharply bent downwardly along the line 2|. In this form, as in all of the other forms, the effective edge 5 is in the same plane as the rests 2 and I2.
In Fig. 6 the pressure bar is formed by the upwardly extending walls 22 and 23 arranged parallel to each other and cut out as indicated at 24 forming a space to admit the hand of the user. A rod or bar 25 is secured beneath the 50 connecting plates 26. Preferably the rod 25 will extend the full length of the'upturned members 22 and 23 and may be firmly secured by soldering it in place or otherwise. The inner edge of one of the connecting plates 28 overlapping 55 the cut-out portion 24 will project a sufficient distance to form a thumb rest 2l. In this form the rest plate 2 extends laterally from the member 23 at one side of the pressure bar and the shield plate 4 extends from the opposite side and from one wall forming the intermediate rest l2.
It is thought that the use of the shield in all the forms thereof which have been shown and described has beensufliciently disclosed by the foregoing description of the construction and that a further description of the operation will be deemed unnecessary. If used as indicated, no paint whatever will touch a surface angularly disposed to a surface being painted. Of-course paint will be deposited on the shield plate but it can be quickly wiped off when necessaryf By providing the intermediate rest I2 between the pressure bar and the shield plate I with the Contact surface of the rest l2 in the same plane as the rest plate 2 and locating the effective edge 5 ofthe shield plate in the same plane, there can be no relative movement in and out of that plane when the apparatus is in use. This insures that there shall be no dragging action of the shield plate and the effective edge 5 thereof when applying and removing the device, such dragging action being liable to cause any paint which may be on the shield plate near its effective edge to be smeared on the surface which. is to be protected. Even a slight movement of the edge of the shield plate into and out of the plane of the rest plate and the effective edge of the shield plate is prevented-by'the intermediate rest I2 so that no matter how much pressure is applied to the pressure bar this operative alinement can not be destroyed.
I claim:
l. A painting shield comprising a pressure ha a grip or handle at the upper edge of said pressure bar, a laterally extending rest plate located at one side of the pressure bar, and a shield plate located at the opposite side thereof, and both plates being at or near the base of said pressure bar; and means between the effective edge of the shield plate and pressure bar to support the shield plate with its effective edge in the same plane as the rest plate.
2. A painting shield comprising a pressure bar, a grip or handleat its upper edge, a laterally extending rest plate extending horizontally from said pressure bar, and an inclined shield plate projecting laterally from the opposite side of the pressure bar with its effective edge in the same plane as the rest plate, and an intermediate rest positioned between the pressure bar and the inclined shield plate to maintain therest plate and the effective edge of the shield plate in the same plane.
3. A painting shield formed of a single piece of sheet metal comprising a pressure bar formed of upwardly bent parallel members, a rest plate, and an inclined shield plate extending laterally from the lower edges of the members forming the pressure bar, the shield plate and rest plate being at opposite sides thereof, and an intermediate rest between the pressure bar and the shield plate, and the contact surfaces of the rest plate, shield plate and intermediate rest lying in the same plane.
4. Apainting shield formed of a single piece of sheet material and comprising a pressure bar formed of upwardly bent parallel members, said members being laterally bent at their lower edges to form a rest plate at one side of the pressure bar, and an inclined shield plate at the opposite side thereof, and an intermediate rest to maintain the rest plate and the effective edge of the shield plate in the same plane, the upwardly bent members of the pressure bar being cut out to form a hand hole and a gripper bar spanning the top of said hand hole.
