7 Claims.
This invention relates to apparatus for applying paint to walls, floors and other surfaces, and more particularly to apparatus in which the paint is supplied to and spread by a roller.
The purpose of the invention is to provide an apparatus which permits the covering of extensive surfaces with paint in a continuous operation, without dipping the roller into a paint supply, and which is self contained and free from tubes for supplying paint or air from iixed sources.
The invention will best be understood with reference to the attached drawings of an illustrative embodiment thereof, in which Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the assembled device wth a portion of the filling tube shown in section:
Fig. 2 is an end elevation of the apparatus, afs on the line 2-2 of Fig. 2, the filling valve being shown in section.
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section through the paint supply barrel, and
Fig. 4 is a longitudinal section through a preferred form oi7 the applicator roller.
Referring to the drawings, la is a reservoir or supply barrel for the paint to be spread. This element should be truly cylindrical and smooth inside and should be as light as possible; e. g., it may be made of a light weight metal or a suitable hard plastic.
Within the reservoir is a piston il provided with cup leathers or other packing lI2-1-I2 and with an open coil spring I3 urging the piston toward the right or discharge end of the barrel.
At this end of the barrel I a boss I4 is bored out to form a pocket I communicating with the interior of the barrel it through'a port I6. Within this opening is closely fitted a sleeve I'I having both its ends closed and having a side opening I3 so positioned as to register with port I6 when the filling tube I9, which is projected from the sleeve Il at 20, is turned to the extended position indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 1. The sleeve Il may conveniently be retained in pocket I5 by means of a circumferential rib 2l and a nut 22. v
The barrel Iii is mounted on a pistol grip 23 carrying a trigger 24 which is urged away from the grip as by means of a spring 25. Movement of the trigger 24 toward the grip 23 actuates a valve needle 26 which controls the flow of paint from the reservoir Il) to the roller 33 through a channel comprising port 21, tubular Vconnections 28 and 29, bores 3U- and 3l and a tube 32 coupled to the roller. Upon release of the trigger 24,
32 is cut off as the needle valve 26 obstructs the entrance to the bore 30 and Aits conical end engages a conventional seat 26,
This combination of hand grip, trigger and valve is conventional in paint spray guns and is subject to considerable variation in detail, the essential being that communication be established through the channel 21-32 connecting the barrel or reservoir I Il with the roller 313 when the trigger 24 is retracted and that it be cut oil when the trigger 24 is released.
The preferred form for the spreading roller indicated at 33 in Fig. 111s illustrated in Fig. 4. In this ligure the supply tube 32 has its end remote from the barrel I0 permanently fixed in a nut 34 which is screwed into a disc 35, this disc being nnished on its outer edge to provide a bearing for the end. ring 35. The roller 33, which may be of perforated metal tubing as yindicated at 3l or of stiff wire mesh or other relatively rigid foraminous material, is provided with a closure plate 38 fixed in its opposite end, this plate having a circular, inwardly projecting rib 39 forming a seat for the end of an inner tube 40. This inner tube, on which the roller proper is free to rotate when moved along a solid surface. is provided with a few perforations 4I to allow the passage of paint into the perforate shell 3l of the roller 33.
The inner tube 4|) is nonleakably attached to bearing disc 35 and leakage between the tube 40 and roller 33 is prevented by a U-section ring gasket 42. The bearing disc 35 is retained removably within the roller 33 by a nut 'i3 screwed into end ring 36 to which the roller 33 is attached.
In this structure, the inner tube 43 is xed in position as regards the supply tube 32 and rotatably supports the roller 33 at both ends. It is also possible to branch tube 32 and introduce the branches into each end of the roller, but the method of support shown in the ligure is p'referred as leaving one end of the applicator roller clear for working into right angle corners.
Paint entering the inner tube 40 through supply tube 32, under the pressure created by spring I3, flows through perforations 4i into the interior of perforate tube 31. The outer covering of the roller 33 is a tube 44 formed of some permeable and ilexible material such as hair felt, a thick wool felt or, preferably, a deep pile carpet. The outer tube 44 is retained at its ends by spring rings or wire ties indicated at 45.
The filling tube I9 pivots in pocket I5 so that the ow of paint from the reservoir to the tube it may be extended out to the dotted line posi- 3 tion I9' (Fig. 1) and back to a position parallel and closely adjacent to the reservoir, as at I9.
In position I9', ports IB and I8 are in register and, while in that position, the reservoir I0 may be filled by dipping'the end of the tube I9 into a container of paint (not shown) and retracting piston II. This retraction is accomplished by means of a pull rod 46 having a hand grip 4l' and a T 48 at the opposite end. The T 48 is inserted under ahook 49 formed on lthe face of the piston It is desirable to provide the pull rod 46 withv a projection 50 (Fig. 3) which will pass through an opening 5I in the outer head 52 and engage the outer surface of the head when the rod is turned'slightly, thus holding the piston II in retracted position while the filling tube I9 is being folded back to the position in which the valve is closed. The opening 5I is also large enough to permit the passage of the T 48 therethrough.
As soon as communication between the' filling tube I9 and'the reservoir I0 is interrupted the pull rod 46 may be unhooked and withdrawn, and may be laid aside or may be inserted in the filling tube (after draining out the paint contained ln it), 'a flexible stopper 53 serving to retain the rod 46 in position and also to prevent any drip of paint from the end of the tube I9 while the contents of the reservoir I0 are being applied. The unhooking of the pull rod 46 permits the spring I3 to come into play and apply the pressure (which need only be very slight) which feeds the paint to the applicator roller 33.
The capacity of the reservoir I0 may be varied at will but will usually be about that of the reservoir of a spray gun, more or less one quart. The device is advantageous over the spray gun in that it creates no spray and maybe used in confined spaces. It is advantageous over both spray guns and other forms of roller applicator internally fed in that it requires no tubing for the supply of air or paint, is completely self contained and requires no accessories whatever. It is highly advantageous over the forms of roller applicator which require to be dipped into the paint supply in that the supply to the roller is continuous and is under complete control through the trigger actuated valve, thus permitting the application of an even coating of any desired thickness.
The usefulness of the disclosed structure is not limited to the exact form of roller applicator shown but may be used to advantage with any form of roller which is internally supplied with the paint to be spread.
