Abstract
A support device for the mechanical handle of a paint roller. This support, made by molding of a plastic material, comprises a handle divided lengthwise in two parts joinable together by a locking mechanism. The handle is articulated on a stirrup which supports the cylindrical handle, and which is able to rotate to 90 degrees, from a position parallel to the stirrup to a position perpendicular to the stirrup. The parts of the handle articulate themselves on the stirrup by the intermediary of molded bridges on a stud projecting centrally from the stirrup.
Claims9
A combined handle and support device for a paint roller, comprising:
- (a) a stirrup supporting a handle, the stirrup configured to rotatably receive a roller on a first side of the stirrup;
- (b) a first stud projecting upwardly from a second side of the stirrup;
- (c) a plurality of bridges projecting upwardly from the stirrup and being disposed adjacent the first stud;
- and
- wherein the handle comprises
- (1) plastic separable parts joinable along a lengthwise axis, the parts being articulated on the stirrup, the parts being rotatable from a position parallel to the stirrup to a position normal thereto, and further wherein each of the separable parts are articulated on a respective one of the bridges.
A combined handle and support device for a paint roller, comprising:
- (a) an elongated stirrup supporting a handle, the stirrup comprising first and second sides, the first side of the stirrup configured to receive a roller;
- (b) a first stud projecting upwardly from the second side of the stirrup;
- (c) a plurality of bridges projecting upwardly from the stirrup and disposed adjacent the first stud;
- and
- wherein the handle comprises separable elongated parts each connected to a respective one of the bridges wherein each of the separable elongated parts is adaptable to be oriented in two positions, a first position wherein they are parallel to the stirrup and a second position wherein they are normal thereto.
