Application filed September 12, 1906. `Burial No.. 278,148.

To (LM whom it may concern.'

Be it known that we, ROBERT H. MoKrr- 'rmcx and HENRY E. S'rniinr, citizens of the United States, residing at San Franeiscofin the county of San Francisco and State of California,have invented anew and useful Brush, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to brushes, and has for its object to provide a brush embodying new and im roved features of convenience, utilitfyfsimplicity, and efficiency.

urther object of the invention. is to pro-A vide a brush havingimproved means for storing soa or like material within a hollow handle an( of feeding the material to the brush.

With these and other objects in View the present invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described, shown in the accompanying drawings, and particularly ppinted out in the appended claims.

ln the drawings, Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of the improved brush. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the improved brush,exhibiting a slight modii ication-in the manner of securin the parts within the shell. Fig. 4 is an en( view of the shell shown in Fig. 3 with the brush-carrying cap removed.

Like charactersof reference indicate corresponding parts in all of the dgures of the drawings.

The brush forming the subject-matter of this application comprises a shell 10, cylindrical in form and having at one end a brush 11, carried by a cap or brush-head 12, secured to the shell in any ap as by the screw-threads 13. isposed axially within the brush is-a nozzle 14, the latter being secured to the diaphragm 15 of the cap or brush-head 12 and secured thereto in any approved manner, as by the fiange 16. Within the shell isclisposcd a cylindricalfcartridge 17, havin a bead 18 formed longitudinally thereof a ong one side of its inner` surface. Within the cartridge is mounted a circular follower 19, havinga central screw-threaded opening and a peripheral notch 20, adapted to receive the bead 18 and prevent rotary displacement of the cartridge.

lThrough the central openin of the follower extends a screw-threaded splndlo 2], corresponding in length to the length of the shell.

. The spindle is secur roved manner,

d at one' end to a cap or closure 22, mounte end of the shell opposite the brus The cap 22 may be secured upon and the spindle and follower within the shell by the interruptod screw-threads 23 being passed spirally through thevinterruptcd threads 24 and being engaged within the annular oove 25, forme in the inner surface of the s ell. In-

stead of having the cap and casing threaded the s indie may be provided at the end opposite t e cap wlth an annular groove 26 and the ca with a flange 27, disposed Within the end o the shell, as shown in Fig. 3. Across the end of the shell opposite the cap 15 is disposed a bifurcated bar 28, the arms forming the slot 29 embracing the roove 26.

It will be understoodv t at the improved brush is adapted for use as a shaving-brush, a shoe-blacking daubcr, or wherever soap, blacking, or other material in aste form is used. `For trans ortation an( storage the cartridge ends will) be closed in any a proved manner to prevent drying and deterioration of the paste. When one cartridge has been emptied, it will be discarded and replaced by a charged cartridge. `When the rigid eartridge .17 is dispensed with, the pasty material will still be marketed in cartridge form, the cartridges being composed of iaper or tin, foil, and the aste removed from t e cartridge and droppec into the shell.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is- 1. A brush comprising a shell, a brushhead dctachably secured to the shell and provided with a perforated diaphragm, a nozzle seated in the perforation of the diaphragm and provided with a laterally-extending ilange adapted to engage the diaphragm, said nozzle forming communication between the shell and brush, a cartridge disposed within the shell and having a bead formed upon its inner surface and extending longitudinally thereof, a follower arranged" within the cartridge and having a noteh for the reception of the bead to prevent rotary displacement of said cartridge, a cap mounted for rotation upon one ond of the shell, a threaded spindle carried by the cap and 'engaged within a threaded opening inthe follower, and means for securing the cap and spindle in operative position upon the shell.

2. A brush comprising a shell, a follower for rotation u on thev having an annular opposite the cap, an a bifurcated bar extend nozzle disposed axiall ol' and forrnin comv ing across the end of the shell and engaging the groove. f

3. A brush comprising a cylindrical shell, a

munication between t eshell and the rush, a cartridge disposed Within the shell and having a bead formed u on its inner face and extending lon `tudina ly thereof, a follower arranged Wit in the cartridge and having a notch in its periphery for the reception of the bead to thereby prevent rotary displm-,emrnt of said cartridge, a cap mounted for rotation upon the end of the shell o posite the noazlcy a threaded spindle carried y the cap and ex tending through a threaded o ening in the follower and throughout the ength of the shell and having an annular oove adjacent the nozzle, and a bifurcate bar extending across the shell and embracing the groove. In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own We have hereto alixed our signatures in the resence of two witnesses.
