Description
July 8, 1958 c, J, RElNHARD 2,841,810
BRUsH Filed Jan. 19, 1956 INVENTOR MVJW ATTORNEY United States Patent O z,841,810 BRUsH Carl I. Reinhard, Dayton, Ohio Application January 19, 1956, Serial No. 560,206
2 Claims. (Cl. 15-172) The present invention relates to an implement for applying a coating or the like.
An object of the invention is to provide a paint applying implement which is particularly adapted to coat generally inaccessible surfaces.
A further object of the invention is to provide a 'brush which is especially adapted for painting the facing inner sides of meeting sash rails.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a painting implement in which the applying member is mounted for sel'ective adjustmcnt about the axis of a supporting element.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a rotatably adjustable brush which is releasably fastened in adjusted position.
Another object of the invention is to provide a brush rotatable about a shaft and spring biased to releasably fasten the brush in selectively adjusted position.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a brush which can be held to avoid the window pane and wherein the applying member can 'be disposed at opposed side positions.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent as the description progresses.
In the accompanying drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration is disclosed a preferred embodiment of the invention:
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the manner of using the coating implement upon the upper meeting rail of the lower sash of a window; p
Figure 2 is a similar view for the painting of the lower meeting rail of the upper sash;
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the implement;
Figure 4 is an end view of the same; and
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5-5 of Figura 4.
Referring to the drawing, wherein coresponding characters of reference are employed to designate corresponding parts, the numeral designates the body of the implement which may be in the form of a bar having an intermediate portion bent to produce a pair of end lengths offset one from the other transversely of their axes. One end length is adapted to provide a handle While the other end carries an applicator mounted so the latter may be rotated about the axis of the bar length to dispose it in a predetermined direction.
Thus, the bent shape as well as the adjustable mounting of the applicator are advantageous in applying a coating such as paint to the inner, usually diflicult, side surface of the meeting rail of an upper or a lower window sash while the latter are mounted in their normal operative positions in a complete vertically sliding sash window.
In a more detailed aspect of the implement the rigid elongated body 10 may -advantageously comprise a round bar having an obtuse bend 11 joining a straight end length 12 to intermediate straight length 13. The latter is joined through obtuse bend 14 with an end length 15. The two end lengths 12 and 15 are in a generally parallel arrange- 2,841 ,810 Patented July 8, 1958 ment a'lthough they actually may bedisposed at some obtuse angular nclination, as shown to advantage at Figure 4. The intermediate portion of the rod, that is: the portion 13 extending between the respective end straight lengths, has the bends 11 and 14 formed to produce a configuration Wherein the end lengths or portions 12 and 15 have their axes transversely out of line or offset.
On end length or portion 15 is secured a handle 16 which may be cylindrical with a bore receiving part or all of length 15 in the manner of a tang. The outer surface of the handle may be tapered for convenient gripping.
The opposite length or portion 12 of the body bar has rigidly fixed thereon a pin 17 driven through a transverse bore so that a part at each end projects laterally to provide stops. On length 12 is rotatably fitted a tubular member or sleeve 18 having a length less than that of portion 12 and provided at its outer end with diametrically opposed notches 19. Against the opposite inner end of the sleeve is placed a washer 20 providing a bearing for the outer end of a coiled compression spring 21. At its opposite end spring 21 bears against a washer 22 pressed against a holding pin 23 mounted transversely of the bar. To sleeve 18 is secured a brush, generally indicated at 24, and having a bristle socket 25 disposed to receive the inner ends of bristles 26. Thus, the bristles are directed laterally of bar length 12 to project in an elongated manner from the body.
The brush, with sleeve 18 at its inner end, is mounted for turning or rotating about the bar portion 12 to suit Operating conditions. Spring 21 yieldingly forces the 'brush against' the pin 17 by resiliently bearing upon the end of sleeve 18. In one selected position the notches 19 straddle the ends of pin 19 to hold the brush firmly to permit painting without turning the brush on the body. To effect another adjustment, for example at an angular displacement of the brush may be manually turned against the resilient frictional holding engagement of the notches. Such turning can advantageously be accompanied by axially sliding the brush sleeve against the compression of yeldable spring 21.
By reason of the bending of the brush body between the handle and the brush, at opposite ends, the brush implement is susceptible of use for coating relatively inaccessible places. For example, the inner :faces of the meeting rails of a pair of vertically sliding window sashes can be readily painted. Heretofore, these surfaces were frequently unpainted because of the extreme diffieulty of applying paint thereto.
With the implement of the invention, the inner face of the top rail of the lower sash can be readily painted by placing and directing the brush 25 parallel with the length of the sash rail as shown at Figure 1. The body 10 is disposed so that the handle is offset outwardly relative to the top sash and its light d-ividing bars, enabling the user to close his hand about the handle without contacting the upper sash while painting. In like manner, the inner surface of the top sash meeting rail, as shown at Figure 2, is painted by disposing the paint applying brush against the surface and the body of the brush implement is directed downwardly. It is thus conveniently grasped by the user to apply the necessary coating without cliificulty or inconvenience. The brush is rotated on the body to expedite the painting.
For surfaces difficult of access by the brushes now available, the present implement is highly advantageous in the saving of time and neat appearing coverage.
It is to be understood that the form of the invention herein shown and described is to be taken as the preferred example of the same and that various changes as to the Shape, size and arrangement of parts may be resorted to 3 without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the'subjoined clairns.
I clam as my invention: 1. In a painting implement, a body bar having a second pin disposed transversely of the bar inwardly of the tubular part of the brush, said spring being coiled about the bar and compressed between said inner pin and the adjacent end of said tubular part of the brush to straight handle length at one end and a straight outer 5 resiliently urge the brush against the outer pin.
length at the opposite end, a brush mounted on said outer end length having bristles at its outer end and a transversely extending tubular part at its inner end, said tubular part being rotatable and axially slidable on said outer end length of the bar, a pin extending transversely of the bar adjacent its outer end and having its ends projecting outwardly of the bar, said tubular part having notches at its outer end engageable with projecting ends of said pin, and a spring bearing against the opposite end of said tnbular part to resiliently bias said part against the ends of said pin.
