E. CHAPMAN. Improvement in Broom or Mop Clamps. No. 123,083.
PatentedJanISO,1872-- nmuu PATENT OFFICE.
EUGENE CHAPMAN, OF SALISBURY, MISSOURI.
IMPROVEMENT IN BROOM OR MOP CLAMPS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 123,083, dated January 30, 1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EUGENE CHAPMAN, of Salisbury, in the county of Ohariton and in the State of Missouri, have invented an improvement on my broom patented to me on 13th September, 1870, No. 107,336 5 also known in said patent as a convertible broom or mop clamp; and do hereby declare that the followin g is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the annexed drawing making apart of this specification. in which like letters of reference refer to like parts, and in which- Figure 1 represents a side elevation of the clamp and broom; Fig. 2, end elevation of clamp, 850.
(Scale of drawing five inches to one foot.)
This improvement relates to the extension of the lower part of the handle of the broom or mop, which carries said clamp, below the conical receiver which holds the broom material as far as the jaws of the clamp, where a cross-piece is fastened at a right angle to the handle, parallel with and between the jaws, and provided with teeth or pins along its sides opposite to the jaws, on either side, for the purpose of stiffening and holding the inserted broom material, or for holding the mop ma terial.
A represents the conical receiver, of tin or sheet iron, attached by a tube, forming its upper part, to the handle of the broom, which passes into it, leaving the flattened portion D of said handle projecting below the mouth of the cone A as far as the jaws of the clamp B B, at which point is fastened securely to the end of said extension of the handle D, and at a right angle to the same the cross-piece G, the latter being parallel with the jaws of the clamp, and between them or near them. The outer sides of the cross-piece are provided with a row of small pins, nails, or wire points, to hold the brush or broom material from sliding to the right or left of the handle, in conjunction with the clamp B B. The latter are strong wires, one on each side of the cross-piece (J and parallel therewith, whence they are bent upward and pivoted in the outward corners of the receiver A. A ring, I) 11,011 either sideparts of the clamp, can be pressed down said adjoining parts to bring the jaws together.
The operation of the mop and broom clamp is as follows: The broom material is inserted between the jaws of the clamp B B, and on either side of the cross-piece G, into the receiver A. The pins 61 d d, &c., serve to prevent any displacement sidewise of. the twigs or material of the broom when the clamps B B are drawn together and secured by the sliding rings 1) b on the converging ends of the clamps. The cross-piece U and its stem D, or extension of the broom-handle, conjoin to form a firm stay or stifl'ener through the greater part of the broom material or broom proper, greatly adding to the strength, durability, and shapeliness of the broom, and also forms a better base or part to which to attach the mop material, as the teeth d d, &c., hold the tags securely. The ends of the clamps B B are simply bent inward and inserted into holes or pivots, two on a side, in each lower outward corner of the receiver A, and small wire may be bound around that part of the jaws of the clamps which pass in front of the pins d d, &c., to assistin retaining the broom material or the rags.
What I claim as my invention is- In a broom or mop clamp the combination and construction of the wooden handle D, extended below the broom-receiver A, terminating in a single wooden cross-piece, 0, the iron pins or nails d d (1, the clamps B B, rings b b, and broom-receiver A, all working together as and for the purposes set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing mopclamp or improvement therein, I have hereunto set my hand this 16th day of October, 1871.
EUGENE CHAPMAN.
