Abstract

A brush making apparatus and method for assembling tufts of synthetic filament and for mounting the same on a brush back is described. The device includes a stock box having a front plate with an aperture therein and an open back with a flapper thereon. At least one hollow elongated picking element is provided which is dimensioned to be received through the aperture. The element is initially indexed through the aperture until it abuts the ends of filaments received in the box.
Forward movement is them stopped. The flapper is then energized and a second indexing movement is provided wherein the element passes through the stock box receiving a plurality of filaments therein to form the tuft. Forward movement is then stopped and the flapper deenergized. The picking element is then retracted through the stock box and through the aperture to withdraw a tuft of filament therefrom.
