Abstract
A handle for a roller applicator. The handle is of heavy rod stock which, for the purpose of this invention, is substantially rigid. The rod is bent so that the roller may be operated with the axis of the roller vertical at locations above or below the locations which may ordinarily be painted with horizontal strokes by a person standing on the floor or ground. The longitudinal axis of the grip portion of the handle is skewed to the rotational axis of the roller at an angle in the order of 30.degree. and the common perpendicular between the two axes is longer than two inches and the point of intersection between the common perpendicular and the axis of rotation of the roller is near to the point where the handle enters the roller.
Claims4
A handle for a roller applicator comprising;
- a single solid metal rod in the order of 1/4 inch in diameter and having a roller axis segment at one end of the rod and a longitudinal grip axis segment at the other end of the rod and the rod is bent to form a handle such that the roller axis is in a skewed relationship to the grip axis at an angle of between 20.degree. and 40.degree. and the common perpendicular between the grip axis and the roller axis is greater than 2 inches long and the point of intersection between said common perpendicular and the roller axis is near the location where the roller axis enters a roller.
