This invention relates tobrooms and more particularly to whisk brooms.
The primary object of this invention is to provide an improved whisk broom construction wherein the handle is positioned in angular relation to the tufts of the broom.
Another object of this invention is to provide in a broom of this character a construction by means of which exceedingly long tufts of fiber may be used, the fiber being so positioned upon the handle structure that it will not be readily withdrawn or loosened therefrom. h
A further object of this invention is to provide a broom structure wherein the means for securing the tufts upon the handle may be extended or wound about the handle so as,
to provide a smooth handle of pleasing appearance. I
The above and various other objects and advantages of this invention will in part be described in and in part be understood from the following detailed description of the present preferred embodiment, the same being illustrated in the accompanying drawing wherein Figure 1 is a detail side elevation partly in section of a device constructed according to the preferred embodiment of this invention; and
Figure 2 is a detail end elevation of the device.
Referring to the drawing wherein like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several Views, the numeral 10 designates an elongated member which is preferably circular in cross section and about which a plurality of tufts of broom fiber 11 are adapted to be mounted, the fiber 11 adjacent the forward end of the member 10 being extended substantially throughout the length of the pin or member 10 and positioned about the periphery thereof.
The tufts of fiber 11 positioned about the 5 periphery of the body member 10 extend over the end of the body member and downwardly therefrom at substantially right angles thereto so as to provide a cushion or protecting portion for the outer end of the body member 10.
' be readily cleaned, particularly the deep up- I A plurality of relatively long tufts of fiber 12 are secured to the body member 10 and are positioned in alignment with the fiber 11 which extends about the periphery of the body 10, the fiber 12 comprising relatively long tufts which are looped as at 13 and firmly held against the periphery of the body member 10 by means of a wire or securing members 14.
One end of the securing member 14; may be nailed or tacked onto the body member 10 adjacent the forward end thereof, and the wire then wound about the tufts of fiber 11 and extended into the looped portions 13 of the tufts 12 so as to provide the desired width of broom structure upon the body member 10.
The wire 14 may be continued inwardly from the inner tuft 12 and wound about the body member 10 so as to provide a handle portion 15, the handle portion 15 being of any desired length and the inner end of the wire 14: may be secured as by a nail or the like 16 to the inner end portion of the body 10.
A cap 17 may be secured to the inner end of the body member 10 and extend over the inner end portion of the wire 14: so as to provide a handle structure of relatively pleasing appearance, the cap member 17 being secured to the body member 10 by means of a nail or headed member 18. 80
A loop or ring member 19 may be loosely mounted in the cap 17 so as to permit hanging of the broom on a nail or the like. The tufts of fiber 11 and 12 are firmly held together by means of a pair of saddle members 20 or the like, the saddle members 20 being of conventional construction in the form of a flexible cord or the like which is wound about the fibers 11 and 12 and extended from side to side in the conventional manner for securing the saddle members.
YVhen the whisk broom herein disclosed has been assembled, it will be obvious that an exceedingly convenient broom structure has 95 been provided by means of which the bread crumbs or the like may be removed from tables, or the interior of motor vehicles may holstery or the like which cannot be properly 10o cleaned by broom structures at present available.
