' UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
FERDINAND W. ZENKE, OF MERIDEN, CONNECTICUT.
SHOE-CLEANER;
To all whom it may concern:

This invention relates to shoe and boot cleaning devices and has for one of its objects to simplify and improve the construction and increase the efliciency and utility of devices of this character.
Another object of the invention is to provide a simply constructed device of this character w 'ch may be readily cleaned and worn or impaired parts renewed without discarding the other parts.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists in a base portion, a receptacle bearing upon the base and with an encompassing seat in the upper rim, a frame detachably supported upon said seat and comprising spaced side members having brushes with the bristles extending inwardly therefrom and spaced transverse members having brushes with the bristles extending upwardly therefrom, and rollers mounted for rotation u on the receptacle and extending between t e transverse members and their brushes.
The invention further consists in certain novel features of construction as hereafter shown and described and then specifically pointed out in the claims, and in the drawings illustrating the preferred embodiment of the invention, Figure 1 is a plan view of the improved device. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section on the line 22 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
The improved device comprises a base or platform 10 which may be of any size or of any required material. Bearing upon the base 10 is a receptacle 11 hingedly connected to the base at 12 and with an encompassing seat 13 in the upper edge; Bearing upon the seat 13 is a frame comprisin spaced side members 14-15 and space transverse Specification of Letters Patent.

members 16, the side members having inwardly extending brushes 1718 and the transverse members having upwardly extending brushes 19, as shown. Mounted for rotation upon the side members of the receptacle 11 are rollers 20, one of the rollers extending transversely of the frame between each pair of the members 16, and so arranged that the upper sides of the rollers project above the members 16. Rising from the seat 13 are half bearings '21 to receive the journals 22 of the rollers, and the lower faces of the side members 1415 of the frame are rovided with cavities to fit over the alf bearings and likewise over the journals of the rollers, and thus retain the rollers in position. The foot containing the shoe to be cleane is thrust between the brushes 17l8 and upon the rollers 20, and moved back and brushes to be cleaned from accumulated material.
The parts being easily separable, broken or impaired ortions may be readily renewed without discarding the remaining portions of the device.
The parts may be constructed from any require material, of or any required size.
