AARON KISTLER, OF AQUASHIOOLA, PENNSYLVANIA,
PAINT-BRUSH BRIDLE.
' SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 380,120, dated March 27, 1888.
Application filed June 16, 1887. Serial No. 241.526. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, AARON B. KISTLER, of Aquashicola, in the county of Carbon and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Clamps for Paint-Brushes, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description. I
This invention relates to clamps or bridles used on paint-brushes for confining the bristles, so as to prevent an undue spreading of the same. These clamps, which are usually made of sheet metal and have been made adjustable up or down to suit different lengths of bristles and to adapt them to new or old brushes, are substitutes for the twine usually employed by painters, wrapped or wound around the bristles for the same purpose, and which, as well known in the trade, is attendant with many inconveniences and annoyances. The invention consists in such a clamp 0 novel and advantageous construction, substantially as hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims. N
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings,forming apart of this specification,in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures. v Figures 1 and 2 represent side views,in planes at right angles with each other, of a paintbrush embodying my invention, the handle of the brush being shown only in part. Figs. 3 and 4 are face views of certain blanks of which the clamp is composed before the'same are bent and fitted to their places.
A indicates the bristles, and B the handle, of a paint-brush.
O is the wire or other ferrule, within which the inner ends of the bristles are secured.
The clamp or bridle is composed of three main portions, lettered, respectively, D and E E, all of which are made of sheet metal, Figs. 3 and 4 showing them in their blank form, as first formed or stamped. The piece D comprises a central apertured head, 6, which fits over the handle of the brush and, resting upon the back of the ferrule 0, covers the butt of the brush. Projecting from opposite sides of this head I; are arms,0r what may be termed main posts, a c, that are bent downward over the sides of the brush, and are provided at their outer ends with crossing band-strips d d, that are bent round the bristles and engage with one another tobind or hold the bristles iniposition by cut-out lips or hooks e e at their one end, arranged and bent to engage or look with or in apertures f f at'their other end, respect 'ively. Furthermore, the apertured head I) is formed with projections that are bent down over the butt of the brush to keep the clamp from moving sidewise in casethe handle B should not fill thea'perture in the head I). Said section D of the clamp is also formed with projections or lips h on its arms or main posts 0, which are bent inward into the bristles under the ferrule O to hold said section down to its place on the brush, and said arms or posts a are furthermore provided with side lips,t' i, which are bent over in front to form guides or clips for the sections E E to slide up or down 'in or through.
The adjustable sections E E are each composed of a central arm or post, k,-having upper side lips, mm, which are bent inward to form sliding clips or guides upon and aboutthe fixed posts a, and said sections E Eare furthermore formed or provided at the lower or outer ends of the arms k with crossing band-strips Z Z, that are bent round the bristles and engage with one another by cutout and bent lips or hooks 'n n and apertures 0 at their opposite ends, for
the same purpose and in like manner as the lips or hooks e e and apertures f f in the bandstrips d d. The hooks or lips e e and n n are integral portions of the band-strips d d and l l, and there may be two or more of them at the ends of said strips, or, which would be the equivalent, two or more apertures, f 0, at the opposite ends of said strips, to provide for the adjustment of the band sections or strips around the bristles to increase or diminish the diameters of the binding-bands formed by the engaging of the band-strips d d and Z Z, as shown and described.
A brush-clamp constructed as described is not only a perfectly efficient one, but exceedingly simple and easily applied, its several sections or members being readily struck up and fitted to their places, and no springs or other separate appendages are necessary to engage the adjusting-sections, and thewhole device lies flat on or'against the brush, thereby offering no obstruction to the use of the brush on all sides, and not projecting above the buttend of the brushto interfere with the resting of the painters fingers against the butt-end when using the brush.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In clamps for paint and other like brushes, he combination, with the stationary section D, adapted to fit close down on and over the butt-end of the brush, and composed of an apertured head, 12, side arms or posts, 0 c, and engaging band-strips d d, of the adjustable sections E E, adapted to slide on or along the arms 0 c, and composed of arms or posts 70 and engaging band'strips Z Z, substantially as specified.
2. The sheet-metal section D of the brushclamp, constructed with a central apertured head, b, having lips or projections 9, side arms, a 0, having side lips, h, and clip lips or guides i 'i, and band-strips d d, having apertures f 20 AARON B. KISTLER.
