UNITED STATE PATENT CFFIQE.
JOHN P. WI E NS, OF MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN.
BRUSH.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters l atent No. 650,577, dated May 29, 1906. Application filed December 20,1899. Serial No. 740,979. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN P. VVIENs, a citizen of the United States, and a resident'of Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brushes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention relates to that class of brushes in which a series of absorbent tufts are bordered by non-absorbent tufts, it being customary to make the absorbent tufts from palma fiber and the non-absorbent tufts from tampico fiber, both ofthese fibers being material of common knowledge to brush-makers. Manufactures of this kind are commonly known as dustless sweeping-brushes and are utilized with a more or less volatile oil, such as kerosene or gasolene, applied to the absorbent tufts in sufficient quantity to saturate the same.
In view of the foregoing my invention has for its object to provide simple economical dustless sweeping-brushes organized to carry a supply of oil and to provide for automatic feed of same in regulated quantity to the absorbent tufts of said brushes, said invention consisting in certain peculiarities of construction and combination of parts hereinafter particularly set forth with reference to the accompanying drawings and subsequently claimed.
Figure 1 of the drawings represents a vertical longitudinal section of one form of my improved brush on the plane indicated by line 1 1 in the succeeding figure; Fig. 2, a plan view of a reservoir brush-back from which the cover-piece has been separated; and Fig. 3, a vertical transverse section of the brush, this View being indicated by lines 3 3 in the first figure.
Referring by letter to the drawings, A indicates a back-section having a multiplicity of sockets in which tufts B O are wired rawn, this operation being common practice in the art of brush-making, and while I show an allwiredrawn brush it is within the scope of my invention to utilize a brush in which some, if not all, the tufts are otherwise secured in the sockets with which the back is provided, as is also common practice in said art. The
tufts B of the brush are of palma fiber or other suitable absorbent material and the tufts O are of tampico fiber, bristle, or other suit-able non-absorbent material.
Made fast on the back-section A of the wiredrawn brush herein shown is another back section D, hollowed out to form upper longi tudinal recesses bin opposite directions from its center, and cut in the latter back-section is a channel 0, connecting said recesses. For other than an all-wiredrawn brush it is obvious that the back may be in one piece thick enough to provide for the recesses and their connecting-channel.
Perforations d in the bottom of the brushback register with exposed butts of the absorbent tufts B, and whether said back be in sections or one piece, according to demands of the trade, it is provided with a cover E, that is made oil-tight thereon and has a port e, through which oil is introduced to find its way to said tuft-butts when the brush is in working position, a suitable closure for the port being also provided. As herein shown, a flanged nozzle f is made fast in a countersink of the oil-port and provided with a screwcap g,the latter serving as a closure that may be adjusted to regulate the gravity-flow of the oil to the absorbent tufts of the brush in accordance with the amount of air admitted through said nozzle.
The brush-back and its cover E being preferably of wood, said cover is set on with oilproof cement h, and wherever there is exposure of the wood to oil a coating of like cement is applied to render said Wood impervi ous to said oil. I
The covered brush-back is provided with a socket for'a handle F, and a triangularlybent wire stay G, connected to said back and the handle, serves as a fender for the brush.
In practice the oil supplied to the brush saturates the absorbent tufts of the same to moisten and lay the dust disturbed by said brush during a sweeping operation, and by utilizing a reservoirback as part of said brush there is automatic feed of said oil, the latter being poured into the reservoir from time to time as may be necessary, the feed being regulated according to conditions under which the aforesaid brush is employed. When not in use, the brush is stood so as to have its tufts uppermost, and the nozzle cap is screwed channeled interior of said back, an oil-inlet 3 \Vitnesses;
in register with one of the back recesses, and a closure for the inlet.
2. A brush comprising absorbent tufts and having a recessed wooden back provided with bottom passages leading from. its; recessed portion to said tufts, a back-cover, oil-proof cement intermediate of the back and cover, similar cement applied to the recessed portion of said back, an oil-inlet in register with said recessed portion of the aforesaid back, and a closure for the inlet.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand, at Milwaukee, in
the county of Milwaukee and State of WVisconsin, in the presence of two witnesses.
