BRUSH. CONSTRUCTION Anthonyflzdobinski, Edwardsville', P'a. Application. Marchl, 1950,- serialivmnasso.
This invention relates. to brushconstructionst It is anobject of. the present. invention to. provide brushes of. a, type which can be. formed by a wrapping and folding of; astri'p about a handle in any easy manner and bearing brush projections serving to effect the brushing operation of the brush and wherein 'thes'e brush projections are connected to a continuous strip which: is wrapped about the handle.
It is another'obj'ect of the present invention to provide a brush constructionforrned by a: wrapping operation wherein the turns. of the. brush strip can. be held in place by a simple application of heat to the material whereby the several turns will be permanently fixed" togetherr the brush strip material being formed of acetate film or the like which, upon" the application: of heat, causes adhesion of the turns or: joined layers of the material.
Other objects or" the present invention are to provide a brush construction which is simple, inexpensive to manufacture; does not require the use of attaching elements for the connection or the" material withthe handle; has a minimum number of parts, washable and will not permit hard particles to collect within the brush, and efficient in operation.
For other objects and for a better understanding of the invention, reference may be had to the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. l is a perspective view of a brush having two forms of wrapping of the brush material upon the handle, the brush being of double ended construction.
Fig. 2 is a perspective View of the strip material used on one end of the brush.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the strip material used on another end of the brush and illus trating the manner in which the strip material is applied to the end of the brush handle.
Fig. i is a perspective view of another form of brush utilizing a wire handle.
Fig. 5 is a perspective view illustrating the method by which the brush of Fig. 4 is formed.
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of still another form of brush.
Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the strip material before it is applied to the handle of the brush shown in Fig. 6.
Fig. 8 is a fragmentary sectional View of the brush shown in Fig. 6 taken on line 8-8 thereof.
Fig. 9 is a side face view of still a further form of brush.
Fig. 10 is a side edge of the brush shown in Fig. 9.
Referring; now particularly" to Figs. 1, 2' and 3, there is shown one. form of. brush constructed according to one. method. There is shown a handle fil' having brush. formations fl and. 12 on the respective opposite ends of the same. The brush formation H is constructed" from a folded and doubl'estrip l3 shown in Fig. 2. This strip is. folded, asindicated at M; and slits [5 are made therein to form brush projections it of. double formation. is tapered in shape. The. length ofthe slits. [5 are preferably uniform, although they can be made of. varying length. This strip material is preferably made. of an. acetate film or of similar synthetic material; which. will givev or stretch. to a certain extent as it is wrapped upon the handle iii. Starting, with the large end oflthe strip 13, itis woundupon the. handle and. the lower. edge isizept uniform. throughout. so that a. brush formation of varying, layers resulting from. each turn. is had. When theentire strip has been wound'upon the handle It, it. canbe. made. secure by atacli 1T, but) upon. the. application of; heat to the ends of the turns, the materiallwil'll-become a solid mass and made substantially integral with the handle. By using the tapered strip I3, the projections 16 will be longitudinally spaced along the brush.
If a uniform width strip [8, such as shown in Fig. 3, is used, the brush formation [2 will be provided. This strip [8 is folded and slit at [9 to provide projections 20 of uniform length. The slits are of the same length and the material is wound upon the handle in the same manner as above described and after the end of the strip is reached it can be made secure upon the handle by the application of heat to the ends of the turns and as indicated at 2! whereby to form an integral mass and to make secure the strip upon the handle I0.
In Figs. 4 and 5, there is shown a still further form of the invention wherein the strip from which the brush formation, as indicated at 23, is formed is of single thickness and slit from one edge, as indicated at 24, to provide a plurality of brush projections 25. A twisted wire handle 26 having an end loop 21 is placed on the material, as shown in Fig. 5, and the material is wound on the end of the handle whereby to form the brush formation 28, Fig. 4. Once the strip 23 is in place and the brush formation 28 is formed, the same is made secure upon the handle by the application of heat to cause the layers of the material to adhere to one another and thereby prevent the same from becoming loose. This material, when placed or wound upon the handle,
The strip, when folded,
is stretched a slight amount so there is a very tight grip or winding of the material so that readily upon the application of heat the solid mass is formed. The material is of any chemical structure which readily becomes molten upon the application of heat to cause the intermingling of the chemical molecules with one another to provide an integral mass. Only slight heat is required and the securing can be effected only at the ends of the turns and not necessarily throughout the length of the strip to any great extent.
Referring now particularly to Figs. 6, 7 and 8, there is shown a still further form of the invention wherein a strip 3| is of wide formation throughout a part of its length, as indicated at 32, and this wide formation is doubled upon itself whereby to provide folded bristles or projections 33 adjacent slits 34. These slits are of uniform length and likewise the projections 33 will be of the same length. The strip is provided with a tail portion 35. The doubled portion 32 is first wound upon the end of stick 36 whereby to provide a brush formation 31 and by the application of heat, this double portion can be made secure in place. Thereafter, the tail portion 35 is wound in an overlapping manner, as shown in Figs. 6 and 8, to cover the handle 36 with a wrapped sleeve formation 38 serving to cover the handle and if the material is colored, the handle will have a, pleasing appearance.
Referring now to Figs. 9 and 10, there is shown a slightly different form of the invention wherein there is provided a plurality of layers 4|, each of which having slits 42 with projections 43 to form the brush part of the structure. These layers are stacked one upon the other and by the use of a hot rod applied at the locations indicated at 44, notches are made in the material and the edges of the material are secured together. This material being of acetate film or the like, the application of heat readily welds the layers of the material together.
It should now be apparent that there has been provided a brush construction wherein layers of the sheet material are formed and upon the application of heat to the layers a solid handle mass is formed leaving the brush projections formed by a slitting of the material free to be flexed and used.
While various changes may be made in the detail construction, it shall be understood that such changes shall be Within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claim.
I claim:
A brush construction comprising an elongated handle, a strip of flexible sheet material having a folded portion and a tail portion, said folded portion being slit throughout the fold to provide loop bristles throughout a part of its width and providing for an unslit part, said folded portion being wound upon the end of the handle by its unslit part and the tail portion being wound with over-lapping turns along the length of the handle whereby to provide a gripping layer thereupon.
