Description

IMPROVEMENTS IN APPLICATORS, SPREADERS AND THE LIKE
This invention relates to improvements in devices used for the direct physical application of liquid coatings to surfaces or the spreading of liquid coatings on surfaces and, more particularly, to a method of adapting such applicators or spreaders so that their transfer elements and that part of an applicator or spreader to which they are fixed may be sealingly enclosed in a mating container so that water or other solvent contained therein prevents coating liquids in or on them from drying out or setting. Applicators for the direct physical application of liquid coatings to surfaces or spreaders for the spreading of liquid coatings on surfaces comprise, generally speak¬ ing, a handle part and a body part (which parts may be combined in a single element) to which are attached trans- fer elements. Transfer elements consist, in the case of applicators, of bundles of bristles or cylinders or pads made of or enclosed in a layer of some suitable absorbent material or, in the case of spreaders or squeegees, metal or rubber blade type elements. In using an applicator, said transfer elements are saturated or covered in coating liquid which is then transferred to the surface to be coated by brushing, rolling or wiping. In using a spread¬ er or squeegee, coating liquid transferred in bulk to a surface is spread evenly on the surface by the dragging or scraping of the transfer elements across it. Many coating liquids, such as paint, glue and the like, set hard as a result of their exposure to air or by evaporation of their solvents. When they are applied to or spread on surfaces with applicators or spreaders, difficulty is often exper¬ ienced in preventing such coating liquids from drying or setting onto the transfer elements of an applicator or spreader during periods when it is not is use. To avoid the need to thoroughly clean an applicator or spreader between periods of use, methods have been devised such as placing the bristles of a brush in water or other solvent to keep them soft and supple. This method has been im- proved by suspending the brush from a pin or rod which passes through a hole drilled in its body and rests upon the upper edges of a water or solvent filled container. In this way, the weight of the brush does not bear upon the bristles and cause them to become bent. However, this arrangement does not prevent evaporation of the water or solvent and movement of the container is liable to result in spillage.
The object of the present invention is to be able to sealably enclose in a mating container the transfer ele- ments and, if appropriate, the adjacent parts of an appli¬ cator or spreader such that water or other solvent therein prevents paint, glue or the like in or on said transfer elements from setting or hardening, and in such a way that no water or solvent is lost by evaporation, no pressure or load is placed upon said transfer elements and spillage cannot occur during transport.
According to the present invention, there is provided an applicator or spreader around the handle or body part of
SUBSTITUTESHEET which is provided a fixed or removable radial web, the outer peripheral edge of which is formed into a flange which is directed towards the transfer element end of the applicator or spreader and the annular or peripheral faces of which are made more or less parallel to its axis. A mating container is provided with the edges of its opening being adapted to be attached in a tight and sealable manner to said flange formed on the peripheral edge of said radial web of the applicator or spreader. Suitable means are provided as required to retain the applicator or spreader tightly in position sealed to the opening of said mating container, thus preventing evaporation and spillage during transportation. The arrangement and shape of the container is such that no pressure or load is placed upon the trans- fer elements of the applicator or spreader and water or solvent contained therein prevents paint, glue or the like in or on the transfer elements of the applicator from setting or hardening.
The various aspects of the present invention will be more readily understood by reference to the following description of preferred embodiments given in relation to the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a sectional view of a container and the outer part of the radial web and flange of a brush, the remainder of the brush being shown in full;
Figure 2 is a sectional view of part of the top edge of a container, part of a radial web and flange formed on the body of a brush and sealing provisions between the two;
Figure 3 is a partial sectional view of another form of container and brush arrangement.
With reference to Figure 1, a radial web 3 is formed on the body part of a brush 1, its outer peripheral edge having a flange 5 which is directed towards the bristle end of said brush and the annular faces of which are made more or less parallel to the axis of said brush. A container 2 is made such that the edges 4 of its opening register accurately with said flange on the outer edge of said radial web of said brush body. With the bristles and part of the body of said brush inserted into said container, said radial web serves to fully close the opening of said container and said flange seals tightly to said edge of said opening, thereby preventing loss by evaporation of water or solvent contained within said container. The bristles of said brush are permitted to hang freely in said water or solvent so that, being relieved of the weight of the brush, are not rendered unfit for use by becoming bent or distorted, the water or solvent acting to prevent setting or hardening of paint or glue contained in said bristles. Suitable attachment means (not shown), such as clips, lugs or ties or elastic loops are provided as required around the edge of the opening of said container to securely retain said brush, radial web and flange assembly tightly and sealingly in place over the opening of the container to prevent evaporation or spillage of water or solvent during transportation. The base of said con-
SUBSTITUTESHEET tainer is made sufficiently wide to ensure stability of it and said brush in the standing position. Containers may be made with suitable provisions such as complementary lugs, hooks, grooves or suction cups to permit adjacent con- tainers to be joined together.
With reference to Figure 2, a brush 1 is made such that flange 5 is made longer in an axial direction than that depicted in Figure 1 and is provided with a flared extension 7 designed to facilitate entry into said flange of lip seal 8 provided on the edge of the opening of con¬ tainer 2. Said lip seal acts to provide a more reliable and efficient seal between said flange and the edge of the opening of said container.
With reference to Figure 3, an annular radial web 11 is made separately from the body of brush 1 and is provid¬ ed with a flange 5 and tapered extension 7 generally of an arrangement similar to that depicted in Figure 2. Provid¬ ed in a more or less central location in said web is mounting diaphragm 9 made of some stiff elastomeric material or some material which may temporarily be made elastomeric by treatment with heat or chemical compounds.
Said web and flange assembly is tightly and sealingly fixed to the handle or body of said brush by said brush being forced handle first up through tapered extension 7, through flange 5 and partially through said mounting diaphragm, causing it to stretch around said brush handle or body. Elastic contraction of said mounting diaphragm or shrinkage due to its cooling or chemically hardening, holds
SUBSTITUTE SHEET said web and flange assembly firmly in place on the handle or body of said brush. Attachment of said brush, web and flange assembly to the opening of a mating container is as previously described. Obviously, the arrangements depicted in the Figures may be adapted to suit all forms of appli¬ cator or spreader. In the case of a paint roller, said radial web is formed around or fixed to the handle part or the body part adjacent to and extending axially from the handle part. Obviously, also, the mounting diaphragm depicted in Figure 3 may be extended axially to form a sleeve which completely encloses the handle of an applicator. In this arrangement, some form of venting aperture is required in the end of such a sleeve to vent air during insertion of an applicator or spreader handle.
In all of the arrangements described, said radial web and flange serves an auxiliary function in catching coating liquid which runs down the body of an applicator or spread¬ er when it is being used with its transfer elements above the level of the handle.
An applicator or spreader container may also be made as large as might be required to accommodate the largest applicator or spreader expected to be employed and provid¬ ed with lids sealingly attachable to it having one or more openings of a range of standard sizes and with each lid opening defined by an upwardly projecting flange. In this way, one or more small applicators or spreaders may be sealingly attached to a large container by first selecting
SUBSTITUT and attaching to said container a lid having an approp¬ riately sized opening or openings. In this arrangement, said flange of said radial web of an applicator or spread¬ er co-operates with said upwardly projecting flange around said opening in said container lid and is sealed to it by suitable sealing provisions between the two.
In a further embodiment (not shown) a simpler means of sealing an applicator or spreader to a container is ob¬ tained by the provision of location and sealing means around the body part of the applicator or spreader which co-operate with complementary shapes provided on the inner surfaces of the neck of the container or on the inner surfaces of an upwardly projecting flange defining an opening in the lid of the container, or by reversing the arrangement and providing said location and sealing means on the inner surfaces of the neck of a container or on the inner surfaces of an upwardly projecting flange defining an opening in the lid of the container and complementary shapes on said body parts of the applicator or spreader. For obvious reasons, this arrangement is not suited for use with a roller type applicator. It is obvious that, in the arrangements depicted in Figures 1, 2 and 3, said flange provided on the outer edge of said radial web may be made to co-operate with either the inner or outer surfaces of said edges of the opening of a container or with sealing provisions thereon. The claims defining the invention are as follows:
