BRUSH-=HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 398,537, dated February 26, 1889.
Application filed ay 10, 1888.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, THOMAS A. PIERCE and ISAAC II. \YADLEIGH, of East Greenwich,
in the county of Kent and State of Rhode Island, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brush-Holders; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to that class of brushes that require a long handle to use them to advantageas, for instance, large floor-scrubbing brushes, &e.; and its object is to furnish devices for attaching a handle firmly to the brush at the proper angle and capable of being easily detached when not required for use, and also capable of being changed to the other side of the brush when it becomes worn on the first side. It is fully illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the holder attached to a brush with the handlesocket in place. Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the clamp and socket. Fig. 8 is a view of the under side of the clamp-plate separate from the brush. Fig. 4 shows one of the staples or rivets used to fasten the holder to the brush.
The clamp which is secured to the brush consists of a base-plate, A, which is made as light as may be consistent with due strength by having its sides cut away in concave forms and an opening made in the center. Flanges n are made on the front and on the farther sides, which extend down a short distance on the sides of the brush, and are cut away in the middle, so as to form, as it were, ears j one at each corner of the plate A. These ears n have each two holes made through them to receive the staples g g, which fasten .the clamp to the brush, as hereinafter explained.
On the top of the plate A two ridges, a a, are made extending across the plate and forming a recess between them, which is narrow est in the middle and gradually widens toward each side. The inner sides of these ridges a are out under, so as to form a clovetailed tapering recess on each side of the plate $erial No. 273,496. (No model.)
i to hold the base-plate c of the handle-socket i b. This part of the holder consists of a short plate made tapering lengthwise and (love tailed on its edges, so as to fit tightly in between the ridges a a on the top of the plate A. The recesses bet-ween the ridges av are the same on each side of the clamp, so that the plate 0 can be inserted from either side and firmly held. (See dotted lines 6', Fig. 1.) A short tube or socket, b, is cast on the face of the plate 0, inclined at a slight angle to the plane of it. The hole in the tube 1) is made slightly tapering to receive the wooden handle.
The staples g g are for the purpose of holding the clamp firmly to the brush B, for, though the holder applies to various kinds of brushes, it is especially adapted to the brush described in patent to John Earnsh aw, No. 165,1 19,which brush is composed of coir or cocoanut fiber, the fiber constituting, with the addition of a few strips of wood, the back or body as well as the loose portion of the brush. To obtain a firm hold on this kind of brush, the sta ples or rivets g pass clear through the cars it and body of the brush, and are bent over or clinched where they come through the ears on the other side.
To fasten the holder-clamp to the brush having a back made of wood, it may be fastened on by means of wood-screws passing through the holes it and the staples 9 used or dispensed with, as may be preferred.
The ridges a a may be put lengthwisew of the brush, if preferred, and the flanges 91 made continuous, instead of being separated into cars.
Having thus described the brush-holder, what we claim as our intention is The plate A, having the flanges or ears )2 n, v and ridges a a, forming dovetailed tapering recesses between them, substantially as described, in combination withthe handle-socket c b, staples g g, and brush B, substani iallv as i and for the purpose specified.
