UN ITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EMANUEL GUGGENHEIMER, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
WINDOW-CLEAN ER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 659,474, dated October 9, 1900.
Application filed October 2, 1899.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EMANUEL GUeenN- HEIME a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Window-Cleaners, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in window-cleaners, and has for its object to provide a simple, cheap, and effective device which may be utilized to 'wash, brush, or dry a window from the outside without requiring a person to lean from the window, but will permit all of the operations to take place from the inside of the room.
WVith these ends in view this invention consists in the details of construction and combination of elements hereinafter set forth and then specifically designated by the claim.
In order that those skilled inthe art to which this invention appertains may understand how to make and use the same,the construction and operation will now be described in detail, referring to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which Figure l is a perspective of the window, showing my improved device in use, whereby the outside of the window may be cleaned by a brush; Fig. 2, an enlarged view of the device adapted for usinga brush, the lower portion thereof being broken away; Fig. 3,a similar view showing the device adapted for using a sponge or cloth; Fig. 4, a front view of the sponge holder, and Fig. 5 a perspective thereof.
In carrying out my invention as here embodied I provide a handle A, having the upper portion B thereof bent at an acute angle thereto, and the outer end of this bent portion is adapted to receive the brush 0 or the sponge-holder D, and when the former is applied to the bent portion of the handle it will stand at the proper angle to be applied to the Serial No. 732,279. (No model.)
outer surface of the window-pane by a person standing inside of the room, it only being necessary to pass the device through the window, which is partially open, as clearly shown in Fig. 1. This brush may be either utilized to dust the window or it may be used to wash the same by applying water thereto, or if found more desirable a sponge may be placed within the sponge-holder, as shown in Fig. 3, and this may be utilized to wash the outer surface of the window, after which the sponge may be removed and a cloth inserted within the holder for the purpose of drying the window.
While the bent portion B of the handle' may be adapted to receive either the brush or the sponge-holder,each being interchangeable, if desired a separate handle may be used for each device and the brush made permanent to its handle and the spongeholder permanent to its handle. By this last arrangement the two may be used in conjunction with each otherthat is to say, the brush may be used first to remove the dust from the outer surface of the window, after which the sponge may be used to wash this surface.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and useful is In a window-washer, a handle having a socket at one end and a holder comprising a number of strands of wire twisted to form a shank which is embedded in the socket, the wires comprising the shank being bent at the opposite end to produce a holder, the extremities of the wire being bent to form loops and a wire bent into a circle threaded to the loops and secured,substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
EMANUEL GUGGENHEIMER.
