PAINT PAIL.
Patented Sept. 2, 1884.
ilrrnn ATEN'r FFl'QEO JAMES T. BRIEN, OF HOOSIOK FALLS, NEW YORK.
PAINT-PAIL.
useful Improvements in Paint Pails or Cups, of
which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings, in whicha Figure 1 is a perspective view of a cup constructed according to myinv'ention. Fig. 2 is a side View of the cup,partly in section. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a pail illustrating the same invention. Fig. 4 is a top view of the cup represented in Figs. 1 and 2.
Similar letters refer to similar parts through out the several views- My invention relates to improvements in paint pails or cups; and the object of my im provements are, first, to catch all the paint, varnish, &c., that may be dripping from the edge thereof when the paintbrush is patted against its rim, and cause the same to flow back into the pailor cup, and thereby keep its outer surface clean or free from paint, 820.; second, to furnish a pail of this description with a series of openings for the return of overflowing paint, and the upper portion of the walls of the pail between said openings.
The invention will first be describedin connection with the drawings, and then be pointed out in the claims.
A represents the walls of the pail or cup, made of any suitable material, butpreferably of tin, and of any required size. The upper portion, A, of the pail or cup wall A is provided with a series of openings, a, formed by cutting out pieces of the walls or sides. These openings a are made of any size, according to the number used in the pail or cup. three to five are generally provided, but more may be used, if necessary. These openings at are preferably made wider at thebottom than at the t0p,t0 facilitate the return of overflowing paint, and extend from the rim-wire A of the pail or cup downward to the point where they meet the lower portion of the laterally-projecting flange B, soldered or riveted to the pail or cup at B. This lip or projecting flange B has its upper portion flaring, and is made to extend outward from the bottom of From PECIPICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 304,291, dated September 2, 188
Applicatlon filed January 31, 1884. (Model) the openings a in the walls A at an angle of about sixty degrees. The top of this flaring lip or projecting flange is below the level of the rim-wire A of the pail or cup A, and is also furnished with a rim-wire, 13, around which the outer edge of the lip B is coiled to strengthen the same. The upper edge of the sheet-metal pail A and of the lip B are bent over their respective wire hoops, preferably inwardly, so that their exterior maybe smooth.
In Figs. 1, 2, and 4 the cups handle is represented as attached to the top of the rim-wire; but it is clear that the samemight be attached to the wall A of the cup.
In Fig. 3 the handle or bail D of the pail is attached to or passed through eyes formed in the bail-ears O. Thcseears are either a continuation of the walls of the pail, orthey may be made separate and fastened to the pail in any suitable manner.
It is well known that painters,while mixing paints, desiring to unload or clear the brush thereof, strike or pat the brush against the inner side and draw, it along the edge of the pail. By this proceeding some portion of the paint (or the varnish, as the case maybe) will flow or run down the sides of the pail, and become not only wasted, but soil the floor upon which it may be resting and the clothing of persons coming in contact with the pail; but with my improvement any paint, varnish, &c., that flows down' upon the exterior of the wire A is caught by the flaring lip or drip-catcher B, and flows thence through the series of open ings a into the pail or cup.
My improvement can be applied to any paint-pail, either new or old.
The rim-wire A and the inwardly-coiled edge of the walls'A provide a rough surface to help remove the paint from the brush, and any portion that does flow over the rim-wire is caught by the flaring lip and returned into the pail or cup.
Having'thus fully described my invention, 5
what I claim, and Patent, is-
1. The combination of the walls of a pail or cup, A, with a circular flaring lip or projecting flange, B, riveted or soldered thereto, substantially as described.
