Patented Aug. '7, ieee.
Application lilnd August 19, 1904. Renewed February 20, 1906. Serial No. 302,050.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARGARET E. HAMILL, a citizen ofthe United States, raiding at Fostoria, in the county of Seneca and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Imrovements in Moisteners or Soteners forl all-Paper, Paint, &c., of which the follow* lngris a speciiication.
' his invention is a device for removing wall-paper, paint, and the like by the application thereto of steam, and com rises particularly a box or receptacle to w ich steam is supplied from any suitable boiler, which box is applied to or pressed against the wall or structure to meisten or loosen the paper, paint, or other substance thereon.
. It is characterized especially b a flexible edge which fits tightly against t esurface, and thereby coniines thereto the steam or vapor and alsothe heat.
The device is illustrated in the incompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective vi ew thereof. Fig. 2 is a sectional detail in perspective. Fig. 3 is a perspective of a modification suitable for use upon curved walls or surfaces.
The device ca'nsists of a box or casing, the edge of which is indicated at l and the sides of which are indicated at 2. This is shown rectangular in sha e, but may be made an'y shape desired. T e box is bottomless or open on the under side and is provided with a handle 5, whereby it may be manipulated, and with a steam-supply hose 7, which opens into the box through a nipple 6.
The sides 2 are made double or of two spaced walls, as-clearly shown in Fi 2, and the metal forming the walls is turne over or beaded, as at 3, to avoid a sharp edge. Held between the walls 2 and projecting beyond the same is a strip 4 of flexible material-such as rubber, felt, or the like-and in use this flexible edge fits against the surface to which the box is applied, conforminv to any inequalities lthereof, and coniines the steam and heat to the space directly under the box, preventing the objectionable escape of steam which would occur with a rigid orlooselyfitting edge.
The construction of the modification shown in Fig. 3 is similar inall essential respects, ex cept that the box 1s curved to conform to curved Walls and the like.
In use steam is sup lied to the box from any suitable boiler, an the box being pressed against the wall the heatand moisture loosen the paint or the adhesive by which paper is attachedto the wall and-effects or permits the easy removal thereof'.l 'and it will be readily understood that the box is moved about l until the whole surface or material is loosened .two subscribing witliesses.
