Definitions
- This invention concerns an improved broom having sturdy brush moulded in elastomers.
- Said brush fits into an elastomer moulded supporting plate, having an adjustable tilting attachment at the top into which a standard broom handle is fitted for holding and using the tool.
- the scope of this invention is to make the above broom more practical and easier to use by introducing a number of improvements which on one hand make the raking and scraping action more efficient and on the other make the tool more versatile and practical to use.
- the supporting plate of the brush and the actual brush have been made more flexible by providing under the supporting plate a wide hollow area and by providing on the brush a number of longitudinal rows of very fine cuts, which are staggered so as to increase the elastic bending capacity of the entire structure, which can in this way bend more easily and better adapt to the irregular shape of the surfaces on which the tool is used.
- a shaped tubular coupling has been provided to fix the handle to the supporting plate of the brush; said coupling can be adjusted in any direction with respect to the supporting plate thereby making it possible to place the broom handle at the most convenient angle with respect to the height of the user and according to whether the same is left or right handed.
- the brush (1) fits under a supporting plate (2) whose horizontal profile is shaped like that of the brush (1) which is rectangular in shape terminating at the front with a tip.
- the bottom of the plate has a cavity (2a) extending for almost its entire length; the cross-section of the plate (2), which has a transverse plane, has a vault profile whose concavity faces downwards, as shown in fig. 3.
- the bottom face of the supporting plate (2) has a series of regularly spaced teeth (2b) along the perimeter which force the underlying brush (1) into an arched position in which its segments are fanned outwards as-shown in fig. 4.
- the base (1a) of the brush (1) from whose bottom the segments (1b) project has numerous rows of longitudinal cuts (1c) which are interrupted and separated along each row by welding beads (1d) obtained during the same working phase and with the same moulding material as that of the brush (1).
- the supporting plate (2) features an adjustable tilting attachment (3) at the top into which, according to this invention, a tubular coupling (4) is fitted and in which the handle of the broom in question is in turn fitted.
- This coupling (4) moulded in a single piece of plastic material, has two sections positioned at different angles: one at the front (4a) which fits into the attachment (3) and the other at the back (4b) which houses the end of the handle, which is not illustrated in the figures.
- the front section (4a) has an external mouthpiece having an splined profile (4c) which couples with the internal terminal section (3a), which is also splined, of the attachment (3).
- the coupling Having fitted the section (4a) of the coupling (4) into the attachment (3) and having screwed the screw (5), the coupling will be firmly fixed in that its rotation is prevented by the teeth of the engaging splined profiles, while its extraction is prevented by the screw (5) which is fitted in the undercut (4d).
- the back section (4b) of the coupling (4) has an internal threading (4e) for screwing the broom handle, which generally has a threaded end.
