IMPROVEMENT IN BROOMS.
Specication forming part of 'Letters Patent No. 129,926, dated July 30, 1872.
To all whom it may concern! Be it known that we, EDWARD D. BRON- soN and MosEs W. DELINGHAM, of.Amster dam, in the county of Montgomery and State tion and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawing making a part of this specification, and to the letters and iigures of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 ofthe drawing is a representation of a side view of my invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the cap and ribs.
u This invention has relation to the manufacture of brooms; and consists in the combination of the metallic cap or collar which encircles the handle and covers the shank with iiuted or studded ribs, designed to hold the strands of wire by which the shank is fastened to the handle, and in the method of winding andrsecuring the wire, whereby a broom of great strength and durability is produced.
Referring to the accompanying drawing, A represents the metallic cap or collar, bellshaped, as shown, and secured to the handle `of the broom by means of rivets or other suitable `fastcnings. This cap covers 'the end of the shank C, and is provided with the vertical or side ribs D, which embrace the sides of the shank, and are luted or studded to provide recesses for the reception ofthe strands of wire E, which are Wound around the shank in spiral order, as shown. These ribs maybe properly struck up in dies and afterward soldered to the cap, or the cap and rib's may be struck up together. v y
My method of winding the wire is as follows: First, I secure the lower end of the wire to the lower'end of the handle by means of a tack or rivet," and then, after arranging the corn as evenly as the iirst stage of the process requires, pass fthe wire through an opening at a to the outsideof theshank. I now wrap the wire around the base of the shank several times, as shown at 'b,"and 'then lay back the corn sufficiently to obtain access to the handle, after which I carry, the wire thereto through'il an opening vat a', and wrap or wind the same spirally around the handle until the point b1 is reached. I next pass it through an opening at b1 and form the external coils b3, after which I again turn back the corn and rewind the Wire around the handle until the last strand is brought as high up as the wire needs to be-that is, near the upper end of the shank. .'I Inext raise that part of the corn which I previously bent over, and which is to constitute the shank, to its proper position, and pass the wire to the outside through a suitable opening. At this point I apply the cap and ribs, first cutting the ends of the corn evenly, and then finish the process by wrapping the Wire around the outside of the shank and within the recesses of the ribs,`and fasten it at c by a tackor rivet. This arrangement of the wire renders it less liable to loosen or to come out if it should break at any point than when arranged according to the ordinary method. The broom may be quickly wired and at a saving of material. Sometimes one of the external coils b b3 may be dispensed with altogether at the rst stage of the process and finished after the wire is wrapped around the ribs. The process of winding the wire may be advantageously adopted in cases where the cap and ribs are dispensed with.
What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. The combination of the cap A and iiuted or studded ribs D,substantially as specified.
2. The combination, with the cap A and ribs D, ofthe wire E, applied substantially as described. y
In testimony that we cla-im the above we have hereunto subscribed our names in the presence of two witnesses. EDWARD D. BRONSON.
MOSES W. DILLINGHAM.
