摘要： A flexure joint interposed between and connecting a first end and a second end has a spherical member, a receiving member configured and arranged to maintain and selectively engage the spherical member, and a connector in communication with the receiving member for releasably locking the spherical member in position as between at least a first locked position and a second locked position relative to the receiving member. Repositioning of the spherical member as between the first and second locked positions is effective for repositioning the shaft relative to the handle as between a first locked position and a second locked position.

摘要： A paint roller including a shaft, a handle attached to a first end of the shaft, and at least one of (a) a frame with an axial protrusion, and (b) a flexure joint with one or more functional elements. The frame is configured and arranged to be rotatably secured to a second end of the shaft for operably engaging a paint roller head and rotating the paint roller head about an axis. The protrusion extends in a second axial direction from the distal end of the frame so as to prevent a distal end of a paint roller head operably engaged upon the frame from contacting a surface perpendicular to the axis of rotation. The flexure joint is configured and arranged to be interposed between and connect the second end of the handle and the first end of the shaft. The functional element is configured and arranged to be secured to a second end of the shaft. The flexure joint includes a receiving member with first and second transversely spaced opposing arms defining a transverse gap between the arms, a spherical member positioned within the gap, a connector in communication with the arms for adjusting the transverse width of the gap occupied by the spherical member and a spacing adjustment mechanism also in communication with the arms for adjusting the transverse width of the gap occupied by the spherical member.

摘要： A paint roller including a shaft, a handle attached to a first end of the shaft, and at least one of (a) a frame with an axial protrusion, and (b) a flexure joint with one or more functional elements. The frame is configured and arranged to be rotatably secured to a second end of the shaft for operably engaging a paint roller head and rotating the paint roller head about an axis. The protrusion extends in a second axial direction from the distal end of the frame so as to prevent a distal end of a paint roller head operably engaged upon the frame from contacting a surface perpendicular to the axis of rotation. The flexure joint is configured and arranged to be interposed between and connect the second end of the handle and the first end of the shaft. The functional element is configured and arranged to be secured to a second end of the shaft. The flexure joint includes a receiving member with first and second transversely spaced opposing arms defining a transverse gap between the arms, a spherical member positioned within the gap, a connector in communication with the arms for adjusting the transverse width of the gap occupied by the spherical member and a spacing adjustment mechanism also in communication with the arms for adjusting the transverse width of the gap occupied by the spherical member.
