SHAVING MUG Filed June 16, 1939 INVENTOR. JOHN T EAST Patented Sept. 24, 1940 UNITED STATES S-I-IAVING MUG John T. East, Denver, Colo.
Application June 16,
1 Claim.
This invention relates to improvements in shaving mugs and has reference more particularly to a shaving mug intended for use by barbers which is equally suitable for individual use.
The ordinary shaving mug is difiicult to keep clean and in spite of the greatest precautions, it is unsanitary.
The ordinary type of shaving mug is of such size that a cake of shaving soap will fit the in-- terior snugly and rest on the bottom.
After the mug and soap have been in use for some time, the water softens the soap around the edges and makes the soap very unsatisfactory besides givingthe mug and the soap an appearance of uncleanliness.
I am aware of the fact that mugs have been made and sold which have a separate compartment for the soap, but the object of this is to keep the soap in one compartment and the water in the other, and this does not have any particular beneficial advantage.
It is the object of this invention to provide a shaving mug of such construction that the soap is contained in a separate compartment, the bottom of which is located above the bottom of the mug and which is so shaped that the bottom of the soap will not rest on the bottom of the soap compartment and the latter is provided with one or more drain holes through which water and lather will drain into the lower compartment, and thereby prevent the dissolving action which otherwise would take place.
Another object is to provide a soap compartment in a double compartment shaving mug which shall have one side provided with a ledge positioned above the bottom of the compartment and whose function it is to support the edge of the soap in such a way as to prevent it from sealing the drain openings. 1
Another object of this invention is to produce a shaving mug that can be readily cleaned and kept in sanitary condition.
The above and any other objects that may become apparent as the description proceeds are attained by means of a construction and an arrangement of parts that will now be described in detail, and for this purpose reference will be had to the accompanying drawing in which the invention has been illustrated, and in which:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a mug constructed in accordance with this invention, a portion of the side wall being broken away to show the partition;
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the shaving mug shown in Figure 1; and
1939, Serial No. 279,411
Figure 3 is a section taken on line 3-3, Figure 2.
In the drawing reference numeral 5 designates the cylindrical wall of a shaving mug whose bottom has been indicated by reference numeral 6. The mug is provided with a handle I, which may be of any suitable shape and by means of which the mug can be handled. The handle is optional and may be left off if desired, although it is believed that in most cases a handle is desirable.
The outside appearance of the mug is conventional and the invention consists in providing the mug with a partition 8, which has been shown in cross section in Figure 3. This partition is formed from the same material as the mug and is formed integral therewith. In the embodiment illustrated, the upper end of the partition extends across the mug on the opposite side of the center from that to which the handle is attached. The distance of the partition from the center can be varied to suit different conditions and in the embodiment shown it is positioned at the middle point of the radius extending from the center C to the inside wall of the mug. The partition is downwardly inclined towards the wall on the opposite side of the center to which it is integrally attached. At the lowest point of the inner surface of the partition, a plurality of drain openings 9 are provided. Positioned on the inside of the mug and directly above the lower end of the partition is an inwardly extending ledge [0. In the drawing this ledge has been shown curved, but may extend straight across in the direction of a chord as indicated by dotted line I l in Figure 2.
In Figures 2 and 3 a cake of soap [2 has been indicated by dotted lines for the purpose of showing the position occupied by the soap during use.
It will be clearly seen from Figure 3 that when the lower corner of the soap rests on the shelf l0 and the upper corner rests against the upper surface of the partition, a considerable space is provided between the lower surface of the soap and the upper surface of the partition. When lather is being formed in the upper compartment, any surplus lather that falls from the soap will flow along the upper surface of the partition through the openings 9 into the compartment l3, which may contain the water used for moistening the brush and obtaining the lather, but where water is provided by a faucet or by a separate vessel, the function of the compartment I3 is restricted to receive and collect moisture and lather that is formed in the upper compartment.
The use of the ledge I assures that under all conditions the soap will be held away from the upper surface of the partition suificiently to permit free drainage and the ledge is therefore an important element and serves to assure proper drainage with any size cake of soap that is ordinarily employed for making lather for shaving.
Attention is called to the fact that the partition connects with the side wall at a point above the bottom so that drainage will always be assured. By having a substantial distance from the lower side of the partition to the upper surface of the bottom of the mug, the latter can be cleaned more thoroughly than if the partition came into close contact with the upper surface of the bottom.
When this mug is used for shaving a small amount of hot water may be poured into the compartment l3 and a cake of soap i2 positioned in the upper compartment, as indicated in Figure 3. After the shaving is finished, the cake of soap may be removed after which the two compartments can be readily cleaned by means of hot water and the soap replaced. The facility with which this mug can be cleaned and sterilized and the facility with which the cake of soap can be introduced and removed makes it practical to always maintain these two elements clean and perfectly sanitary.
Having described the invention what is claimed as new is:
A shaving mug having a partition integral therewith, extending downwardly from the top thereof and dividing the interior of the mug into two compartments, the upper surface of the partition comprising a curved, upwardly concave surface, the partition extending between spaced points of the inner wall of the mug and terminating above the bottom of the mug, that portion of the mug that is bounded by the concave surface of the partition having an inwardly projecting ledge whose upper surface is positioned some distance above the lowermost portion of the upper surface of the partition, the ledge serving as a support for one edge of a piece of soap whose other edge rests on the upper surface of the partition, the partition having drain holes at its lowest point.
