Abstract
A device for painting wallpaper-like patterns on walls and other flat surfaces. The device comprises a container for holding paint as well as a series of feeder rollers for feeding paint onto the embossed surface of a pattern roller. Additional means, independent of the pattern roller, provides turning power to rotate the feeder rollers at the same linear speed as the pattern roller.
Claims16
A device for painting wallpaper-like patterns on walls comprising:
- (a) a container for holding paint;
- (b) a pattern roller for applying a pattern as it is manually driven by friction contact between itself and a wall;
- (c) at least one feeder roller which is driven by friction contact with said pattern roller;
- (d) a friction roller, independent of said pattern roller, for providing stability and avoiding lateral movements of said device across said wall;
- (e) a driver roller for driving said feeder roller;
- and
- (f) means for transferring rotary motion from said friction roller to said driver roller such that said feeder roller rotates at the same linear speed at which said pattern roller is manually driven along said wall.
