STATES PATENT OFFICE- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 16, 1.906.
Application filed February 2],,1906. Serial No, 302,298-
Zo all whom it may concern; Be it known that I, SAMUEL J. CoNNrns, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shaving-Mug Covers, of which the following is a specification. The object of this invention is to provide an improved cover for shaving-mugs or similar receptacles, which is so designed as to exclude all dust and foreign matter therefrom when not in use.
While this device ma be employed in other connections, it will I e found especially valuable in barber-shops, where the dust which is raised by sweeping the floor is impregnated with disease germs and is frequently the cause of b'arbers itch or other analogous diseases by settling upon the various appliances.
The essential feature of the invention resides in the provision of movable leaves which are located upon the cover adjacent to the opening through which the handle of the shavingbrush passes and which are adapted 3(1) form a tight closure around the said han- For a full description of the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire aknowledge of the details of construction of the means for effecting the result reference is to be had to the following, description and ac companying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the cover as applied to a shaving-mug. Fig. 2 is a plan view showing the leaves 1n an open position, and Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the leaves in a closed position.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
The numeral 1 designates a receptacle of any suitable character, in this instance a shaving-mug, and 2 the cover therefor, which is constructed in accordance with the invention. This cover is provided around its periphery with a downwardly-projecting flange 3, which engages with the upper portion of the receptacle 1 in the usual manner. A portion of the cover 2 is cut away at one side thereof to form the notch 4, through which the handle of the shaving-brush 5 passes. A pair of movable leaves are employed in connection with the cover to form a tight joint around the handle of the brush 5. One of the leaves 6 is located upon each side of the notch 4, and they are each provided on their adjacent edges with cut-away portions 7, which fit upon opposite sides of the handle of the brush 5. These leaves 6 have an approximately triangular shape, the outer sides being curved so as to conform to the shape of the cover 2, while the inner corners are provided with circular enlargements 8, through which the pivot member 9 is passed, by means of which they are secured to the cover. When these two leaves 6 are thrown apart, the notch 4 in the cover is unobstructed and the cover can be removed or placed in position without interfering with the brush 5. However, after the cover has been placed in position the leaves 6 can be brought together, so as to cause the cut-away portion 7 therein to fit around the handle of the brush 5 and form a close joint therewith. The leaves 6 are preferably formed so as to overlap each other when brought together and are each provided upon their upper faces with knobs or fingerpieces 10, by means of which they can be con-. veniently operated. The cut-away portions 7 in the leaves 6 are preferably so formed as to enable the cover to be employed in con. nection with various types of brushes.
While I have described the cover as being employed in connection with a shaving-mug and shaving-brush, it must be understood that it may be employed with equal facility in connection with other receptacles,such as paint-buckets, from which the handles of brushes or stirring-sticks may project.
It will be apparent that the leaves 6 constitute two opposing members, movable in opposite directions and readily operable by the finger-pieces 10 in order to admit of proper arrangement of these parts, both when the same are engaged with the brush or member 5 and when they are spread apart, so as to admit of removal of the member 5.
As the socket that is formed to receive the brush handle by means of the opposing semicircular notches 7 is produced by leaves 6, both of which are pivoted and movable with respect to the lid 2-, it is obvious that when the pivoted leaves 6 are closed around the brush-handle the brush may be moved back and forth with the ordinary action of producing lather in a shaving-mug by wiping the bristles back and forth on a pieceof soap therein, this action being capable of performance without leaving any portion of the lid open, and the pivoted leaves serving as an oscillating support for the brush in its backand-forth movement. this action before described may be performed with the brush-handle 5 held in a suspended relation in the two sliding or pivoted leaves, all of which would not be possible if only one leaf 6 were to be provided, because in the back-and-forth motion of the brush-handle to produce the lather the opening in the lid would be repeatedly exposed and there would be no means for supporting the brush in a suspended relationiunder such circumstances.
While I am aware that it is not broadly new with me to provide a lid for a receptacle for liquids or the like, such lid provided with an opening to receive a brush-handle and a single leaf adapted to partially close the said opening around the handle, yet I am not aware of any construction in which two pivoted leaves, such as the leaves 6, are provided, so that all advantages as above set forth may be obtained, especially with shaving mugs.
It is evident that the knobs or fingerpieces 10, or, rather, the one on the lower most leaf 6, will serve as a stop, by engagement with the recessed or cut-away portion 7 of the other leaf, to limit the movement of the two leaves in one directionnamely, toward each other-so that the two leaves will always be in substantial position in readiness for the insertion of a brush-handle between the two cut-away portions of the leaves, because the opening formed by such two cut-away portions will never be vir- It is also obvious that tuallyclosed, owing to the engagement of pm} knob with the opposing edge of the-other Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is As an improved article of manufacture, a lid for a shaving-mug, the same being formed with an edge notch 4 and two leaves 6 overlapping eachother at one end, a pivot 9 extending through both of said leaves at their I overlapped 'ends and pivotally securing both of said leaves so that either or both may be swung back and forth on top of the lid to close the edge notch therein, said leaves 6 being provided on their opposing edges with cut-away portions or recesses 7 by which they are adapted to encircle the handle of a brush, the arrangement providing that the brush may be swung back and forth as it is suspended between said two leaves, without opening the edge notch in the lid and with out widening the opening or recess in which the brush. is receivedeach of said leaves being provided on its upper surface and near its outer edge with a knob 10, whereby the knob on the lowermost leaf of the two will contact with the adjacent edge of the other or upper leaf and prevent the further movement of the two leaves relatively to each other, in a direction to close the opening formed by the cut-away'portions or recesses 7,515 and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
