摘要:
A brush handle is disclosed having a core member which is surrounded by a layer of compressible and resilient gripping material of a non-slip nature, the layer of gripping material closely conforming to the contour of the brush handle and being mechanically interlocked to the handle by projections which are integral with the core member and extend into the layer of gripping material, and also at least partially bonded one to the other by heat and or chemicals. A brush having the above described handle sealingly secured to a brush head utilizing the layer of gripping material and a method of manufacturing a brush handle are also disclosed.

A brush handle is disclosed having a core member which is surrounded by a layer of compressible and resilient gripping material of a non-slip nature, the layer of gripping material closely conforming to the contour of the brush handle and being mechanically interlocked to the handle by at least one projection which is integral with the core member and extend into the layer of gripping material, and also at least partially bonded one to the other by heat and or chemical processes. A brush having the above described handle sealingly secured to a brush head utilizing the layer of gripping material and a method of manufacturing a brush handle are also disclosed.

A pole for supporting a tool includes an elongate body extending along an axis. The elongate body defines a plurality of outwardly facing facets about the axis. The elongate body preferably includes a first tube and a second tube telescopically received within the first tube for adjusting a length of the pole. The two tubes are locked relative to one another by a locking mechanism that is fixedly coupled to the first tube with a detent engaging member that extends from the locking mechanism into engagement with a detent defined by the first tube. The locking mechanism preferably comprises a collet which is threadably coupled to a chuck that defines a plurality of outwardly facing facets. Rotation of the chuck causes the chuck to overlap the detent engaging member and to frictionally clamp the collet against the second tube.

A cage for a paint roller is composed as a one piece, unitary construction having a plurality of projections carried by a barrel portion of the cage, the projections making pressure contact with the inside of the bore in the center of the cover so as to prevent the cover from walking off the cage in use. The projections are formed to adapt to structural irregularities in the cover bore. A cage and cover sub-assembly and a paint roller incorporating the above is disclosed.

A cage for a paint roller is composed as a one piece, unitary construction having a plurality of projections. The projections make pressure contact with the inside of the bore in the center of the cover so as to prevent the cover from walking off the cage in use. The projections are formed to adapt to structural irregularities in the cover bore. A cage and cover sub-assembly and a paint roller incorporating the above is disclosed. The cage may have a tubular construction with the projections extending from the exterior of the tube, or the cage may have a beam-like construction along which hubs are spaced with the projections extending from the hubs and/or the beam.

A cage for a roller cover includes a plurality of hubs, a longitudinal support member interconnecting a plurality of hubs and a roller cover support surface integrally formed with the hubs and the support member. The roller cover support surface is resiliently biased outwardly beyond at least one of the hubs for resiliently engaging the roller cover.

An improved paint pad assembly is provided with a painting surface contour that is changeable from concave to flat to convex so that the paint pad can paint exterior corners, flat surfaces and interior corners with equal ease. The one-piece paint pad features handpieces disposed on the opposing edges of the paint pad. The two-piece embodiment features an inverted U-shaped handle mounted to the opposing side edges of the paint pad via a tab and lock configuration. The paint pad is hinged in the longitudinal direction thereby enabling the pad surface to extend outwardly for painting an interior corner and inwardly for painting an exterior corner with equal ease.
