PATENT FFICE.
SAMUEL W. BARNETT, OF GREENFIELD, INDIANA.
BROOM-SUPPORT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 270,624, dated January 16, 1883.
Application filed October 7, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, SAMUEL W. BARNETT, of the city of Greenfield, county of Hancock, and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Broom-Supports, of which the following is a specification.
As is well .known, brooms when permitted to rest upon the brush end when not in use will soon become bent out of proper shape, and their value and efficiency thus seriously impaired.
The object of my said invention is to obviate this difficulty; and it consists in an attachment which may be adjusted to support the broom entirely from the floor, or to permit it to come in contact therewith in the ordinary manner, as will hereinafter be more particularly described.
Referring'to the accompanying drawings, which are made a part hereof, and on which similar letters of reference indicate similar parts, Figure I is a front elevation of a broom provided with my attachment, said attachment being in position to keep the broom ott' the floor; Fig. 2, aside elevationof the same; and Fig. 3, a view like Fig. 1, except that the attachment is raised, so that the broom may be used without being affected thereby.
In said drawings, the portions marked A represent the broom-handle, B thebroom, and 0 my attachment. 4 v
The several parts are or may be of any ordinary or approved form, except as hereinafter specified.
Eyes or loops at a are secured to the handle A, through which to pass the stem of the attachment (3. These are preferably common screw-eyes, which enter the wood of the'handle, and are thus secured in position.
eye a should be screwed in a little farther than the eye M, as shown, so as to bear tightly against the attachment 0, for the purpose hereinafter explained.
The attachment or support 0 is formed of heavy wire, preferably of a quality that will The spring somewhat without bending, and should be bent into a loop, 0, at the upper end, which loop is adapted to surround the broom-handle. The arrangement is preferably such that when the attachment is in position on the broomhandle the loop c and eye a. shall hold it toward the handle, while the eye a shall hold it away from said handle, thus giving the required friction to hold the attachment in whatever position it is placed, or, in other words, to prevent it from slipping up and down too easily.
My invention constitutes a cheap and convenient means of keeping brooms oil" the floor when not in use, and fully accomplishes the object specified.
Having thus fully described my saidinvention, what I claim as new, and desire to secur by Letters Patent, is.-
l. The combination, with a broom, of asupporting attachment, 0, secured to the broomhandle, anda-dapted to slide up and down on said broom-handle, and be thus caused to project beyond the lower end of the broom or be withdrawn above it, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, with a broom, of the attachment 0, having loop 0, and the eyes or loops to a? on the handle, through which the stem of said attachment passes, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination, with a broom, ofa supporting attachment passing through eyes or loops attached to the broom-handle, said eyes or loops being arranged, as specified, to press upon the stem ot'said attachment and prevent it from slipping up and down too easily, substantially as set forth.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal, at Indianapolis, Indiana, this 4th day of October, A. D. 1882.
SAMUEL W. BARNETT.
