JOHN PETER KNUEHMANN, OF SUMAS, WASHINGTON.
PAINT-BRUSH.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 748,193, dated De emb 29, 1903.
Application. filed April 22, 1902.. Serial 11.. 153,812. on) model.)
To (LZZ whom it 7ncty concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN PETER. KNUEH- MANN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sumas, in the county of Whatcom and State of Washington, have invented new and useful Improvements in Paint-Brushes, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in paint-brushes; and its object is' to provide a drip'cup of novel construction adapted to receive paint from the brush when the same is held in an inverted position and which guides the paint to a receptaole communicating therewith and preferably so shaped and positioned as to constitute the handle of the brush.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists in providing a brush having a shank from which extends a tube which communicates with laterally-extending passages opening through the sides of said shank. A drip-cup incloses the apertured portion of the shank and is held in position by means of a hollow handle,which is screwed or otherwise secured to the shank and incloses the tube before referred to.
The invention also consists in the further novel construction and combination of parts hereinafter more fully described and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, showing the preferred form of my invention, and in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device, and Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal section through the handle and drip-cup.
Referring to the figures by numerals of reference, 1 is a brush of any desired construction having a shank 2, from the center of the end of which projects a tube 3, which is preferably screw-threaded at its inner end to engage an internally-threaded passage 4 within the shank. This passage communicates with oppositely-extending passages 5, which open through the sides of the shank.
A drip-cup 6 incl'oses shank 2 and has its inner edge curved inwardly, as shown at 7. The shank 2 is tapered toward its end, and the cup 6 is adapted to be clamped thereagainst by a hollow handle 8, which is internally screw-threaded at its open end, as shown at 9, and is adapted to screw upon the end of the shank and clamp the cup in position. I
preferably provide a projection 10 upon one side of the drip-cup to form a rest for the thumb when the brush is in use.
It will be understood that when this brush is held in an inverted position the paint running therefrom will sink into the cup 6 and flow downward therein through passages 5 and tube 3 and into handle 8. The inwardlycurved edges 7 of the cup prevent the paint from spilling, and tube 3 also prevents the paint from leaving the handle when the brush 1 is placed below the handle. When it is desired to remove the parts for cleaning or for removing the paint from handle 8, itis merely necessary to unscrew said handle. The cup can then be slid from the shank 2, and, if desired, tube 3 can be tiuscrewed from said shank.
It will be seen that the device is extremely simple and inexpensive in construction and will prevent the dripping of paint, which has heretofore been the objectionable feature when using a brush in an inverted position;
In the foregoing description I have shown the preferred form of my invention; but I do not limit myself thereto, as I am aware that modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof, and I therefore reserve the right to make such changes as fairly fall within the scope of my invention.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is- 1.' In a brush of the character described, the combination with a tapered shank; of a drip-cup inclosing the shank, and a handle mounted upon the shank and adapted to clamp the cup in position thereon.
2. In a brush, the combination with a shank having passages therein, and a tube extending from the shank and communicating with the passages; of a dripcup inclosing the shank and the passages therein, and a hollow handle inclosing the end of the shank and the tube.
3. In a brush of the character described, the combination with a shank having oppositely-extending passages therein; of a tube projecting from the shank and communicating with the passages, a drip-cup inclosing the shank and passages and having an inwardly-tn rned edge, and a hollow handle detachably secured upon the shank and incloslow handle detachably secured to the shank ing the tube, said handle serving to retain and inclosing the tube, said handle serving the cup in position. to bind the cup upon the shank.
4. In a brush of the character described, In testimony whereof I affix my signature 5 the combination with a shank having oppoin presence of two Witnesses.
