BROWN. SAFETY RAZOR BLDE HOLDER:

APPL

EOATION .FILED -f L11/lll ois..

To all whomit may co'noem:

Be it known that l, JOHN BARLiNG Biz-owls, oi tile village of Dundalk, in. the county of Grey, in the Province olv-Criterio, Comodo, have invented certain new sud useful improvements in Holders, of which the following is tlie speci- ,te-tion.v f t,

My inventlon relates to improvements in i0 safety rozor blade holders, lod the oojleot of the invention is to devise o l'orm oi razor 1olode holder in .vlrielrtlie razor blade may be inolosed for slrorperiing and removed 'with tlie greatest esse.

A. il'urtliei oliieet is to provide insuring ille razor ola e loeirl l in pleoe when lieiog sliorriene" A 'luratlier oliiet is to so construct tle holder that it may lie manipulated like mi ordinary razor, so es to sharpen the edge oi the olede Without Vsuch "'olsde springing or bending.v4

Another object is to so lori blade es to prevent the razor ps-seing oil tlie strop es it oeiog sliorpeoed.

Another object is to provide against slipping ol' tlio razor lilsdo liolder in the lizmcl os it is being turned over io its liooloverd sind forward mir-lement.

My invention consists oli' razor 7olode holder mede oi tivo members having one of the members extending from end to end to iorms lieiidle and one lui-li oi7 tlie blade holder, and another portion hinged intermedio-te ol' the length oi ille aforesaid por-- ion, o spring @steli liold iii 'rlio extreme oir-d of the blade holding portion end designed. to oonrieettlre two portions together, the blade holding portions of tlre two rioembers being beveled from one edge to the opposite edge to form e 'line edge et the point where the loiadelorotrooes, e longitudinal recess having bounding end shoulders, the ports being" otherwise constructed and arranged in detail as hereinafter more particularly exploiiied.

like letters' of reference 'in lo tle drawings diente corresponding ports in' each figure.

lier of my safety l is tlie morir mem Stl-iety-lozorflode blade holder aiid l the oo-eotiog member or portion, which is hinged at 1 intermediate or" the lengt-li oi the holder et the inner eed oi the handle A, which mode of gr'renf thickness than the portion A2, thiol oo,n :rots Witlr the portion B io lrold the resorblofle. n

The handle A is provided tfitli o. l portion A?, tvoieli extei i Stroe-od tl" ol the handle in triangular form on eheh sid os indicated. The lmurled 'Qort on il serves os o, means lor retaining the tlmmli thereon and preventing its slipping on the handle as the razor is being sharpened mod the holder given tl'io usuel tum over` i meot lor that purpose. .The portion vrell the. portion B are thicker et one "e tlisii at tlie opposite, White-l1 i proctioslu knife edge tod eoeli portion s sliglrtly re cessed ordi-@lied i'o cross seetion at il eed 'toward the knife edge side.

The plunger bar comprises a stem E4, which extends outthrough an orifice E 1n a recess E7 having a reduced end.

ES is a spiral spring, which encircle/s the l stern Ec and is designed to normally hold the bar E2 in engagement with the notch E of the pin E and thus hold the two portions B and A2 of the holder, so as to normally grip and hold the razor blade D. The stem E4 is provided kwith a button E at the end. l

By pressing on the but-ton Es the bar E2 is l disengaged from the notched pin E and the j member B may be swung '1p and the plate f removed and changed around, so that the opposite edge projects beyond the gripping l a co-acting member hinged intermediate `ofA edge of the member and portion A2 of the member A.

I am aware that it is not new to make razor blade holders having one vportion i hinged to the other and the blade gripped inv between them, and I am also aware that val rious means have been devised for fastening the two portions together. I, therefore, do not wish to lay claim broadly to any such construction.

What I claim as my invention is:

'.1. A safety 'razor blade holder comprising a main member having a handle portion, and a blade holding portion of less thickness and the length of the main member on the inner end of the handle, anda detachable means located at the outer extremities of the main blade holding portion and the cc-acting blade holding portion for removably connecting the blade holding portions together at their outer ends as and for the pu ose specified.

2. A safety razor blade hol er comprising a main member having a handle'portion, and a blade holding portion of less thickness and a co-acting member hinged intermediate of the length of the main member on the inner end of the handle, and a detachable means" located at the outer extremities of the/main blade holding portion and the eoeacting blade holding portion for connecting the blade holding ortions together, the central ortions of tlie blade holding portions being eveled from one sidel to the other to a knife edge, so as to form shoulders at the ends of the said portions as and for the purpose specified.

3. A safety razor blade holder comprising a main member having a handle portion, and a blade holding portion of less thickness and a co-acting member hinged intermediate of the length of the main member on the inner end of the handle, a pin at the outer end on one blade holding portion having a cross notch, and a spring-held bar and plunger held in a recess in the end of the other blade holding lportion and designed to co-act with the note ed pin aforesaid. as and for the purpose specified.
