- the brush 3 comprises an elongated core 15, of axis X'X ', comprising two ends 13 and 18 between which the elongated core 15 has a middle section 151. At the level of the middle section 151, the brush 3 comprises a pair of tenons 10 projecting from a surface of the elongate core 15 along the pivot axis YY. On the other hand, the brush 3 comprises means 12,16,17 for indexing a position of the brush 3 relative to the rod 4 arranged in the vicinity and around the tenons 10 and, consequently, in the vicinity and around of the YY pivot axis.
- the indexing means comprise a series of indexing teeth 16 which here are 3 in number.
- the series of indexing teeth 16 is arranged in an arc of circle around the YY pivot axis.
- the series of indexing teeth 16 protrude from the surface of the middle section 151 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the pivot axis YY.
- the series of indexing teeth 16 forms a rack 12 which extends in a plane passing through the longitudinal axis X'X 'of the elongated core 15.
- the brush 3 comprises a series of pins 14 distributed over at least a portion of an outer surface of the elongated core 15, the series of pins 14 projecting from the outer surface of the elongated core 15.
- the rod 4 has a mounting fork 111, here in the shape of a "U", having two branches 11 parallel to one another. other and to the longitudinal axis XX of the rod 4.
- the branches 11 of the assembly fork 111 each comprise a housing 110 intended to receive, when the brush 3 is mounted on the rod 4, the tenons 10 of the brush 3. The latter are received in the housings 110, here, by snapping perpendicularly, on the one hand, to the pivot axis YY and, on the other hand, to the longitudinal axis XX of the rod 4.
