Description
WILLIAM A. MIDDLE'ION, 0F HARRISBURG, PENNSYLVANIA.
Letters Patent No. 101,901, dated .April 12, 187 0.l
The Schedule referred to in these Lettera Patent and makingpart of the same.
' inadefof cast metal, is, from its manner of construction, rendered heavy andunwieldly, and from the clamps and bolts used to secure the` brush therein, rendered liable to deface furniture, and tear the 'clothes of the person using the saine. Again, if made of sheet metal, they lare flimsy and break easily, so that nothing is gained by their use, they never lasting longer than the brush with which tlieyare filled. To overcome. these defects, and produce a simple, practical broom-head vthat can be constructed of duable material', and at `the same time be very light, hold the brush perfectly secure, and last'for 'au indefinite period, is the object of my present invention. I
construct my improved broom-head,7 as follows: A .I provide a cast metallic-head, formed as is shown at A in Figures 1 and 2.of the drawing.
This head is made skeleton in' form, that is, the sides are cut away, as shown, for the purpose of lightening it, and also for another purpose that will be described hereafter.
Cutting away the head, as will be seen, leaves two bars or ribs stand at the lower portion on each side4 of it, as shown at c in the drawing.
A `feirule or socket to receive the handle is provided at the top of thc head; a screw, s, serves to retain the handle securely in place.
I do not intend here to make special claim to this method of constructing the skeleton head A, as it is the same in form as is shown in mypatent broom- A brush firmly in'place.. It accomplishes said purpose in this manner: i
The head is filled with brush, it being forced down between the inside of the bars o c and the rod cc, the ends being covered by the upper portion ofthe head, as shown in tig. 1. 'Ihe brush is now sewed or-stitched across from edge to edge of the skeleton sides, as seen in fig. v1. A suiiicient number of rows of. stitching is made use of to perfectly secure the brush.
It is evident that this method of construction will prevent any of the brush from coming loose, as' the stitching above the stay-rod c e forms a secure lock, and at the same time presents no obstruction to deface furniture or tear the dress of the operator.
Having given a full,clear, and exact description 'of I my invent-ion, and set forth its merits and peculiar ex`- cellence,
What I claim as new, of my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States,
The use of the stay-rod e e, in combination with the skeleton head A, and rows of stitching a b, in the brush B, as'and for the purpose herein set forth and described.
