BROOIVI AND BRUSH HANDLE.
T0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, GEORGE M. VAT- TERS and WINFRED A. BROWN, citizens of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Broom and Brush Handles; and we do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
Our invention relates to improvements in broom and brush handles and has for its object to provide novel means for effectively attaching the handle to a pair of converging arms which carry the brush or broom back.
lVith the foregoing in view, the invention resides in the novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described and claimed, the descriptive matter being supplemented by the accompanying drawing.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the invention.
Fig. 2 is a detail longitudinal section through the ferrule showing the manner of connecting the converging arms and handle thereto.
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section of the ferrule taken at right angles to Fig. 2.
Figs. 4 and 5 are horizontal sections on the planes of the lines 41 and 5-5 respectively of Fig. 2.
In the drawing above briefly described, the numeral 1 designates a preferably tapered ferrule which is in most instances provided with internal threads 2. The inner side of the ferrule 1 is formed with two opposed grooves 3 extending from the lower end of said ferrule to points adjacent its upper end, at which points they communicate with openings 4; leading to the exterior of the ferrule. The rear or upper ends 5 of a pair of rearwardly converging arms 6 are received in the grooves 3 and have their terminals bent laterally outward at '7 for reception in the openings ff, and the lower end 8 of a suitable handle 9 is either driven or threaded into the ferrule, thereby retaining said arms and their lateral terminals 7 in the grooves and openings.
Specification of Letters Patent. Pate ted lw 15 11922 Application filed February 5, 1920.
Serial No. 356,489.
handle 8 and when this screw is tightened,
it not only holds the washer 1O tightly in place, but it prevents the handle from being loosened in the ferrule.
The arms and handle 6 and 9 may either be inclined or vertical as most desirable, and although said arms could be attached to the back 13 of a brush or broom in any preferred manner, we have shown loops 14 on the front ends of said arms secured to said back by bolts and thumb nuts 15.
From the foregoing, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, it will be seen that although our invention is of sim ple and inexpensive nature, it will be highly eflicient and in every way desirable, serving to form an effective connection between the handle 9 and the arms 6, yet allowing disconnection thereof whenever necessary. Since probably the best results are obtained from the construction and arrangement shown, it is preferably followed, but within the scope of the invention as claimed, numerous changes in size, proportion and minor details may be made.
We claim:
In a structure of the character described, a handle having a reduced end portion provided with relatively coarse threads, a sleeve fitting upon the reduced end of said handle and having threads engaging the threads of the handle, the sleeve having longitudinally extending grooves cut from its inner face to a greater depth than its threads and terminating at their upper ends in passages extending through the sleeve, a pair of arms adapted to carry a cleaner having their end portions extending through the grooves and terminating in outstanding finger extensions positioned in the passages of the sleeve, a plate fitting against the end of said sleeve and provided with side notches receiving by the handle may not be unscrewed from the socket until the screw is removed and will not of itself come unscrewed.
In testimony whereof 'we have hereunto set our hands.
GEORGE M. WATTERS, VVINFRED A. BROWN
