IMPROVEMENT IN BROOMS..
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 181,524, dated August 29, 1876; application filed J une 15, 1876.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAMS DICKINSON, of ,West N orthfield, in the county of Franklin and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain Improvements in Brooms, of which the following is a specification: I
My invention relates to that class of brooms which are made of rattan' and palm-leaf, or either of them; and consists in the combination of a solid central mass of fine material to take up and retain the fine dirt and dust, with a surrounding mass of coarse material to receive the heavy wear and act upon the coarse dirt, and in a peculiar manner of arranging and uniting the parts, as hereinafter explained.
Figure 1 represents a longitudinal central section of my brush; Fig. 2, a top or back view of the same, with the cap removed; Fig. 3, a-transverse section of the same on the line at x.
In constructing the brush I first provide a wooden head, A, of any desired form, and bore through the Same, near the outer edge, a series of holes toreceive the coarse material, and also two holes to receive the ends of the wire, by -which the fine material is secured in place. I next provide a mass of fine material, B, preferably palm-leaf split into fine strips' and fold or double the same over a strong wire, 0, and then bend the ends of the wire upward, and insert them through the two holes in the head A, and double them down on top thereof, as shown in the drawings. Two-wooden strips orclamps, D, are next .placed against opposite sides of the fine ma:
terial B, and united and drawn tightly against the same by heavy screws E passed through the material and the clamps, as shown, The clamps are then secured to the head A by clinch-nails F driven upward through them, as shown, or by screws, the nails being preferred. After the clamps are thus secured in place, so as to compress and'hold the material firmly and solidly between them, wire and twine, or either of them, are wound around and stitched back and forth through the material, as shown at a, Figs. 1 and 3. The
coarse material G-rattan or palm-leaf, as preferred is then arranged in suitable bunches, which are doubled in the middle, drawn into the outside holes in the head, and secured before it the heavy coarse dirt, while the finematerial which is unfitted to receive the heavy wear, takes up the fine dirt and dust passed over by the coarse material. By folding the fine material over the wire and clamping it between the wooden bars in the manner shown, it is held firmly and securely and in a close compact mass, and prevented from being bent or broken down by use.
Having thus-described my invention, what I claim is- The herein-describedbroom, consisting of the head A, provided with the coarse fibrous material G seated in its outer edge, and the compact central mass of fine fibrous material B doubled over the wire 0 and clamped between the blocks D, the wire and the blocks being secured to the head, and the blocks -united by the screws E, asshown.
