Application filed February' 14;. 1907. Serial No. 357,349.
To all whom 'il may concern- Be it known that l, ABRAHAM Snaiemofa citizen oi Jthe United States-residing at Chippewa Falls, in the county oi Chippewa .and State of Wisconsin, have inn vented certain new and useful Improvements in Dampeners; and l do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description oi the invention, such as will. enable others skilled in the art to which it appertain's to make and use the same.
My invention is an improveddainpening device lor use in connection With a broom or brush to supply the latter with Water or oil when in use, and hence avoid raising a dust; and it consists in the construction, combiuation andr arrangement oi devices hereinafter de- In the accompanying drawings-Figure l is perspective view of a dainpencr embodying my invention, showing the saine applied to a broom, the latter being indicated in outline in dotted lines; Fig. 2 is a vertical Sectional view of the saine, in which' view also the broom is indicated in dotted lines Fig. 3 is a detail sectional view taken on the plane indicated by'the line a-a of Fig. 2. I i
In the embodiment of my invention, I provide a reservoir l to contain Water or oil and Which is here shown of a size and shape to correspond with the upper end of a broom, and is holloWed on one side, as at 2, to enable it to t against the broom head and to lie closely thereto. On the outer side of the reservoir at its top is an inlet 3, provided With a screw cap 4, which screw cap has a packing and it is provided onits upper side with a thumb piece 6 by which it may be readily turned. When partly opened from the inlet 3, the said screvlY cap admits the air in a suflicient quantity to the reservoir to facilitate the passage oi liquid therefrom. At the upper side of the reservoir at its center is an attaching bail 7 to pass around the broom handle. The said attaching bail is formed of a coiled spring which adapts it to tightly compress the broom handle and to closely 'secure the upper portion of the reservoir to the upper portion oi the broom. At the lower corners of the reservoir are eyes 8 to which a cord is attached, the said cord being also passed around the broom to secure the lower portion of the reservoir closely thereto. From the lower side of the reservoir project a series of laterallyinclined, dowimardly-tapering nozzles 9, which enter between the straws or" the broom and become embedded inthe broom and serve to conduct oil orwater tothe interior oi the broom and cause the same to pass loWnWardly on the straws and keep the broom dampened to a sufficient extent to prevent the broom from raising a dust when the broom is in use.
vTo prevent the oil or water from passing too freely from the reservoir l provide in the bottom thereof aforaininous casing l0, which is filled with raw cotton or other suitable absorbent material, through which the Water or oil must pass before reaching the nozzles,
the said absorbent material becoming saturated with the Water or oil and causing it to be supplied in very small quantities to the nozzles.
Various changes in the form, proportion and the minor details ot construction may be resorted to Without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention, as defined by the appended claims.y
Having described. my invention, What l claim as new and desire to secure by Letters-Patent, isz-- A dnmpener for nttachmentto a broom or brush head comprising :i reservoir having its rear face eoncoved to fit the broom head, an elastieattaching bail carried by the reservoir and adapted to embrace the broom handle,
downwardly and rearwardly inclined discharge nozzles to be embedded in the fibers 01 the broom or brush head', and s minous casing disposed over the upper ends of the nozzles and containing an absorbent material, for the purpose ser. i'orih.
in testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence oi.' two subscribing Witnesses.
