BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG.
An embodiment embodying the broom of the present invention will be described. 1 to 4 show a broom of a typical embodiment. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the broom A is formed by arranging bristles 1 in a horizontal direction so as to have a predetermined width, and joining a base end portion of a hair bundle 2 arranged in a horizontally long plate shape to a plate shape. It is fixed at the portion 3 and the connecting portion 3 and the tip of the gripping rod 4 are pivotally connected to each other so as to be freely rotatable. In particular, in the illustrated example, chemical fibers such as nylon, polypropylene, vinyl chloride, and polyester are used. The base end of a hair bundle 2 temporarily bundled by bundling a plurality of hair implantations 1 of the same length and made of the same material is positioned in a mold and fixed by a gathering portion 3 integrally molded of synthetic resin. It is. The flocking 1 can be a straight one or a wavy one.

The hair bundle 2 has a central flocked portion 2a using the same length of flock 1 by expanding the flocked portions located on both outer sides of the long side outward from the root. It is composed of the expanded flocked portions 2b, 2b. The length of the flock 1 is irregularly set in the expanded flocked portion 2b in order to obtain the effects described later. However, the length of the flocking 1 can be set to the same length. In the hair bundle 2 shown in the figure, the length of the hair implantation 1 is about 5.5 cm, and the thickness of the hair bundle 2 is about 0.5 cm.
5 cm, the width is set to about 31 cm, and the outer flocking portions of 3 to 5 rows located on both outer sides of the long side of the bristle bundle 2
The base end of the flocked portion is expanded so that the flocked end is irregularly opened outward so as to be located between about 3 to 7 mm from the end face of the flock. That is, the angle at which the flocking 1 expands is not fixed, but is expanded at an irregular angle. Although the broom A in the illustrated example is bent from the root and expanded, the broom A may be formed by bending the middle of the flocking 1 and expanding.

Further, in order to form the central flocking portion 2a and the expanding flocking portion 2b by expanding the flocking portions on both outer sides of the bristle bundle 2, thin plates are inserted on both sides of the bristle bundle 2 and , The flocked portions located on both outer sides can be bent outward. Furthermore, hot water can be applied to the roots of the flocking portions located on both outer sides of the bristle bundle 2 and thermally deformed, so that the bristle bundle 2 can be spread outward. In addition, the base end of the hair bundle 2 is
When placed in a mold and insert-molded with synthetic resin, the roots of the expanded flocked portions 2b located on both outer sides of the bristle bundle 2 are pressed in the mold by a clamping pressure in the mold, and flocking is performed. Can be opened outward.

In the above-mentioned broom A, the outer flocking portions of the 3 to 5 rows located on both outer sides of the long side of the hair bundle 2 are expanded outward to form the expanded flocking portion 2b. Only one or two rows of outer flocked portions, or six or more rows of flocked portions may be expanded. Further, the material for the hair transplantation of the hair bundle 2 is not limited to chemical fibers, but plant fibers, animal fibers, metal wires, and the like can also be used. It is also possible to manufacture with a metal such as stainless steel.

Further, in the broom A in the illustrated example, the expanded flocked portions 2b are provided on both outer sides of the bristle bundle 2, but the expanded flocked portions 2b are provided only on the side corresponding to the surface for sweeping dust and dirt. Or all the outer flocked portions, including both short side surfaces, may be expanded outward.

In addition, in the case of the broom A in the illustrated example, the bristles 2 having a rectangular shape that is long in a front view are used. However, the bristles are not particularly limited. Although not particularly shown, a substantially columnar hair bundle 2 or a polygonal pillar hair bundle 2 such as a substantially quadrangular pillar may be used, and the outer flocked portion may be expanded outward. .

In the case of cleaning using the broom A of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5A, the gripping rod 4 is grasped by hand, and the tip of the hair bundle 2 is pressed against the ground to hold the hair bundle 2 together. If it is made to be slanted, before the center flocking portion 2a springs, the expanding flocking portion 2b having a low elasticity slowly splashes outward while suppressing the scattering of dust and dirt, as shown in FIG. 5 (b). Then, when dust or dirt is trapped between the central flocking portion 2a and the expanding flocking portion 2b and the hair bundle 2 is further slanted, the space between the central flocking portion 2a and the expanding flocking portion 2b is closed. And the central flock 2a
However, it can splash outside, sweep out dirt and dust on the ground, and collect dirt and dust for cleaning. Therefore, according to the broom A of the present embodiment, if the tip of the hair bundle 2 is pressed against the ground so that the hair bundle 2 is slanted, the expanded flocking with weak elasticity is provided earlier than the central flocking portion 2a. When the portion 2b is splashed outward, dust and dust are held between the central flocking portion 2a and the expanded flocking portion 2b, and the hair bundle 2 is further slanted, the central flocking portion 2a
The central flocked portion 2a can be splashed outwards to scrape out dirt and dust on the ground and collect dirt and dust. Cleaning can be performed smoothly without scattering. In particular, in the above-described broom A, the expanded flocking portion 2b,
Since the spread angle of the flocking 1 in the bristles 2b is irregularly set, the elastic force is dispersed even if the spreading flock portion 2b is pushed outward, so that dust and dirt are less likely to be scattered.

[0017]

As apparent from the above description, the following operations and effects are obtained. According to the broom of claim 1 and the broom of claim 2, when the gripping rod is grasped by hand and the tip of the hair bundle is pressed against the ground to make the hair bundle slant, before the center flocking portion springs, Spreading flocks with weak elasticity gently bounce outward without scattering dust and dirt, trap dirt and dust between the center flocking and spreading flocking, and further slant the hair bundle Thus, the central flocking portion is opened outwardly, the central flocking portion is swept outward, dust and dirt on the ground are collected, and dust and dirt can be collected and cleaned. Therefore, cleaning can be performed smoothly without vigorously scattering dust and dust. In particular, according to the broom of claim 2, since the entire laterally long bristle tuft has a strong elastic force, the elastic force can be weakened by providing the expanded flocking portion, which is more effective.

According to the broom of the third aspect, the spread angle of the flocking at the spreading flocking portion is set irregularly.
Even if the spread flocked portion flies outward, the elastic force is dispersed, so that dust and dust are less likely to be scattered.

According to the broom of the fourth aspect and the broom of the fifth aspect, three to five rows of flocked portions located on both sides of the bristles in which the bristles are bundled in a horizontally long plate shape are expanded, and the expanded bristles are spread. By forming the portion, the portion of the spread flocked portion can be minimized, and it has an excellent effect of scattering dust and dirt. Since the elastic force is strong and scattering of dust and dirt becomes a problem, the spread flocked portion is more effective.
