Abstract
Abstract A paint pad support and handle assembly includes a paint pad support body and a handle which is mounted to the support for swinging movement of about 90° extent about an axis parallel to the plane of the support body and for pivotal movement about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the support body. A spring clip is used for biasing the handle without interfering with its free swing.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
155 words
In a paint pad support and handle assembly of the type used to support a removable paint pad and to guide said pad across a surface to be painted, the improvement comprising: a substantially planar paint pad support body; a handle; means for mounting said handle on said support body for swinging movement of about 90° about a first axis substantially parallel to the plane of said support body at a turning point located above and to one side of the main axis of said paint pad support body for maintaining said pad in surface-to-surface relation with the surface being painted independent of the position of the user relative to said paint pad and for pivotal movement about a second axis substantially perpendicular to the plane of said support body; and a circular spring clip located substantially at and around said turning point for biasing said handle in a given direction of swinging movement therearound.
