Abstract
A hand held apparatus for removing wrinkles and bubbles in a thin paraffin ribbon having a pair of normally flexible handles and a pair of elongated strut members with the handles, disposed at an angle in relation to the handles and movable with respect to one another, responsive to a flexing of the handles. The apparatus also includes a pair of spreader portions disposed at the opposite end of the strut members in relation to the handles, and a pair of spreader pad portions attached to the top end portions of the strut members so that flexing of the handles brings the spreader portions in close relation to one another, and unflexing of the handles brings the spreader portions apart, thus spreading the thin paraffin layer as the spreader portions are separated.
Claims7
A hand held apparatus for removing wrinkles and bubbles in a thin paraffin ribbon, comprising:
- a. a pair of normally flexible handles integrally connected together at one end portion thereof;
- b. a pair of elongated strut members constituting integral portions with said handles, disposed at an angle in relation to said handles and movable with respect to one another, responsive to a flexing of said handles;
- c. a pair of spreader portions disposed at the opposite end of said strut members in relation to said handles, constituting integral portions with said strut members and disposed at an angle in relation to them, each spreader portion comprising:
- i. an elongated spreader arm;
- ii. a pair of spreader pad portions attached to the top end portions of said elongated spreader arms where the spreader arm and handles both extend in an upward direction with respect to said strut member, and where each spreader pad portion has a top surface capable of frictionally engaging and supporting, for spreading, a portion of said paraffin ribbon, and where the top surfaces of the spreader pad portions are alligned such that they can spread said ribbon upon flexing of said handles.
