Abstract

A shaving brush attachable on a replaceable aerosol can of shaving cream, the brush attachment including a spout extension, that fits on the can spout, so as to carry the discharged shaving cream directly into the brush bristle head.

Claims

1. A shaving brush attachment for a canister of shaving cream, comprising, in combination, a hollow semihard plastic molded base, having, at its lower end, a groove receiving a head of said canister, a spout extension, fitted inside said base, being pivotable about a thin tongue formed on a side of said base, and an upward tube, integral with said extension, being fitted upon an upward spout of said canister, an upper end of said tube protruding upwardly out of said base and among brush bristles affixed upon said base;

a sideward lever, formed on said extension, protruding out of a side of said base, for being manually depressed; and

a tube extension slidable on said tube, a first link pivotally connected at one end to a longitudinally intermediate portion of said lever, an opposite end of said first link being pivotally connected to an end of a second link rested upon an inclined pad, so as to cause said second link to slide upwardly when said lever is downwardly depressed, an upper end of said second lever being pivotally connected to an intermediate portion of a third link pivotally connected, at one end, to a side of said base, an opposite end of said third link having a longitudinal slot engaging a protrusion formed of a side of said tube extension, so as to slide said tube extension upwardly, when said lever is depressed.

2. The combination as set forth in claim 1, wherein said third tube is downwardly inclined in its downward position, and said tube extension, at such time, is angularly tilted slightly toward one side direction, and said third tube, in a raising, horizontal position, tilts said tube extension slightly in an opposite direction, as said tube extension is upwardly raised among said bristles.
