i claim; (o1. 222-341) This inventionl relates :to fountain shaving brushes.
' An object of this invention is to provide Sin a shaving brush, means whereby liquid soap may be discharged into fthe bristles in vmeasured amounts.
Another object of this invention is to provide a fountain brush for liquid soap which embodies a supply chamber and a delivery cham-ber with a spring-pressed valve normally closing the communication between the chambers, forward movement of the valve eecting communication between the chambers and simultaneously closing the delivery port of the delivery chamber, the delivery port being opened when the valve is released to assume its normal position.
With the Iabove and other objects in view, my invention consists in the arrangement, combinaftion and details of construction disclosed in the drawing and specification, and then more particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
In the drawing,
Figure l is a detail side elevation of a fountain shaving brush constructed according to an embodiment of this invention,
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section taken on the line 2 2 of Figure l,
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 3 3 of Figure 2.
Referring to the drawing, the numeral I designates generally a cylindrical brush body formed with a head or outer end I l within which bristles I2 are firmly secured. The head or end II is provided with a centrally disposed opening I3 through which soap or the like is adapted yto -be discharged.
A cylindrical fluid reservoir -I4 telescopes within the body IIl and is provided with a forward wall I5 having an opening I6 therethrough. A cap generally designated as I'I is threaded on the inner or rear end of the reservoir I4, being formed with an annular internally threaded flange I8, and a wall I9.
A flared skirt 20 extends from the ange I8 and Serves as a base or supp-ort for the brush when the latter is not in use. The reservoir I4 has projecting from the forward end thereof a cylindrical chamber 2 I, formed with a forward wall 22 having an opening 23 axially aligning with the outlet opening I3. The chamber 2I constitutes a measuring chamber within which a quantity of liquid soap is ada-pted to be discharged, and subsequently discharged from chamber 2l through opening 23 and opening -I3 into the bristles I2.
A cylindrical valve plug 24 isadapted to normally engage in the opening I6 and is connected 'with` a plunger 25 by means of a relatively 'small diameter stem 26 which has a diameter substantially smal-ler than the diameter of opening I6. A spring 21 is interposed between the wall I5 and the forward end of plunger 25 and constantly urges the plunger 25 and the Valve member 24 rearwardly to maintain the valve member 24 in closed position with respect to the valve port I6.
A stud 28 project-s from the rear end of the plunger 25, loosely engaging through opening 29 formed in the cap wall I9, and a flexible or compressib-le gasket 30 is disposed on the stud 28, bearing against the rear end of the plunger 25 and adapted to normally bear against the forward or inner side of the wall I 9.
In the use and operation of this brush, liquid soap S is discharged into the `reservoir I4 by removing the cap I'I. At this time the valve member 24 will be in closed position with respect to y the delivery opening or port I6. When it is desired to discharge soap into the bristles I2, the stud or operator 28 is pushed inwardly moving the plunger 215 and the valve mem-ber 24 forwardly. The forward end of the valve member -24 will at this time be disposed within the delivery opening 23 so as to close this opening, whereas the stem 26 will be positioned within the area of the opening or port I5, thereby permitting the soap in reservoir yI4 to flow into the delivery chamber 2l. The soap in 'chamber 2| is discharged into the bristles I 2 by holding thedevice in the position shown in Figures 1 and 2, and releasing the plunger 25. With release of plunger 25, valve member 24 will move upwardly to closed position by action of spring 2'I and delivery port 23 will ibe opened so that the liquid soap in chamber 2l may flow downwardly into the bristles I2, through opening or port I3.
The brush hereinbefore described will provide a means whereby liquid soap may be dispensed to the bristles of a shaving brush or the like in measured quantities.
I do not mean to confine myself to the exact details of construction herein disclosed, but claim all variations falling within the purview of the appended claim.
A dispensing means for a fountain brush comprising a reservoir having spaced front and rear walls, said front wall being formed with a delivery port, a discharge chamber carried by said reserf Voir and projecting forwardly of said front wall, said chamber including a wall rimposed to and spaced from the front wall of the reservoir and having a discharge port aligned with said delivery port, a valve plug slidable in said delivery port, a plunger in said reservoir, a stem connecting said valve plug with said plunger, a stud xed to said plunger and extending slidably through the rear Wall of the reservoir, a spring positioned between the plunger and the front wall of the reservoir and constantly urging-said vaveplg 'to closed position" with respect td said delivery port, said Valve plug being at least equal to the length of the discharge chamber and being of substantially" the same cross sectional size asthedeliveryand discharge ports to seal oi said ports when posi-r tioned therein whereby movement ofsaid plunger and valve plug towards the front Wall of tHe-rese# Y voir moves the valve plugfinto saidv dschargef port to close oi said discharge port while simultaneously disposing said valve plug in operrposif s 4 material in said reservoir through said delivery port.
