BRUSH.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 789,178, dated May 9, 1905.

Application filed June 10, 1903. Serial No. 160,859.

To all whom, it nuty concern:

Be it known that I, ANsoN L. SoNN, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Upper Troy, Rensselaer county, New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brushes, of'which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to brushes; and the object of my invention is to produce a brush so arranged that the bristles are secured in the body of the brush in a positive and substantial manner. I attain this object by means of the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a perspective View of my brush. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section along the lines X X on Fig. 1.

Similar letters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.

My brush-back A is provided with a recess for the purpose of receiving the composition E. The bristles B are placed into suitable openings in the plate C, which plate has along its edge a downwardly-projecting flange D. After the bristles have been placed in the plate 0 the plate C containing the bristles is placed on the brush-back A and pressure applied thereto, when the plate will be forced in contact with the composition. The flange D will be pressed into the brush-back between the outer edge thereof and the edge of the recess, thus holding the plate and bristles securely and positively in contact with the brushback.

1 thus provide a neat and serviceable brush. The plate may be made of aluminium or other light metal or celluloid, and being secured, as it is, to the brush-back by means of the flange, as well as by the adhesion of the composition or cement, the parts of the brush are held securely together.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

The combination of a brush-back provided with a recess; a plate having openings for bristles and having a flange around its edge; composition in said recess, the bristles being embedded in the composition and passing through openings in said plate; the flange on said plate being embedded in the brush-back between the outer edge thereof and the edge of said recess, substantially as described.

Signed at Albany, New York, this 29th day of May, 1903.

ANSON L. SONN.
