A handle for a push broom or other janitorial tool includes an elongated body with opposite first and second ends. The body includes a polymeric structure including a core that extends along a longitudinal axis. The body includes a plurality of arms that extend radially outward from the core. Each of the arms includes an inner end connected to the core and an outer end including an enlarged head with an outer surface for being gripped by a user. The outer surfaces of the arms together define a gripping surface. Each circumferentially successive pair of arms is circumferentially spaced-apart from each other by an open channel that extends parallel to the longitudinal axis. Each of the open channels includes a space defined between the circumferentially successive pair of arms and includes a gap in communication with the space and that separates circumferentially successive enlarged heads from each other such that the gap interrupts said gripping surface.

An articulating stand for brooms and similarly handled implements, the stand includes first and second clipping portions. The first clipping portion and second clipping portion hold an elongated handle of the implement under tension sufficient to prevent the handle from sliding. The first clipping portion is angled relative to the second clipping portion, such that it releases the handle when the second clipping portion engages the handle and vice versa. A panel for engaging a standing surface on which the articulating stand and an implement rests is provided below the second clipping portion and includes a wide bottom edge with opposing ends, forming a tripod with the implement. The panel is in substantially linear arrangement with the second clip, such that the panel is adjacent the handle with the second clipping portion engaging the handle, and not adjacent the handle when the first clipping portion engages the handle.

Scrape and Sweep Broom Handle Attachment
20170188774 · 2017-07-06 ·

The Scrape and Sweep Broom Handle Attachment is a scraping tool with special features that allow it to be quickly attached to the ends of broom and mop handles, so it doubles the effectiveness of brooms and mops as cleaning tools. Brooms and mops are some of the most commonly used cleaning tools in the world because they are highly effective at removing loose debris from floors; but when wet food and dirt dry and become stuck to floors, it often becomes necessary for people who are sweeping or mopping those floors to stop, then find other tools and get down on their hands and knees to scrape the stuck-on food and dirt loose, and then resume sweeping or mopping. When a person has a Scrape and Sweep Broom Handle Attachment on the end of their broom or mop handle though, it's not necessary for them to find another tool and get down on the floor; that person may simply turn their broom or mop around, remain standing, scrape off whatever is stuck, and then sweep or mop it away. The Scrape and Sweep Broom Handle Attachment can be quickly and easily removed from broom and mop handles to be used on raised surfaces also, such as countertops, tables, walls and windows. Because the Scrape and Sweep Broom Handle Attachment enables people to clean up faster and with less effort than when using a broom, soapy rag, sponge, or mop alone, and because it helps people maintain a greater degree of comfort while cleaning floors, it is likely to become as commonly used as brooms and mops themselves.

BRUSH HAVING ADJUSTABLE SCRUBBING STRENGTH
20170172288 · 2017-06-22 ·

A brush or broom provides an operator the ability to adjust the length of the bristles that extends from the broom. The broom handle may be attached to a broom head from which a plurality of bristles extend distally. The broom handle may howls and internal adjustment rod that may be attached to a bristle guide. The bristle guide may include one or more channels through which the bristles extend. The bristles may extend the entire length of the channel and may protrude outward from the bristle guide. The lengths to which the bristles protrude from the bristle guide may be adjusted by sliding the adjustment rod relative to the handle.

ROTARY BRUSH SCOOPER DEVICE
20170156561 · 2017-06-08 ·

A rotary brush scooper device for scooping, sweeping and picking up loose material from a ground surface includes a base housing which includes an interconnected pair of wheels, drive assembly, and rotary brush member, as well as a lower shelf, a receptacle area, and handle portion. Positioned under the brush member, in front of the receptacle area, the lower shelf extends below the base housing such that it is adjacent to a ground surface over which the rotary brush scooper device is rolling and operative to lift loose material present off the ground surface as it passes thereover. Through action of the drive assembly, the rotation of the wheels as the rotary brush scooper device is rolled along the ground surface in a forward direction causes the brush member to be rotated in a sweeping direction, thereby sweeping loose material on the lower shelf into the receptacle area.

Invertible Broom Handle Device
20170113340 · 2017-04-27 ·

An invertible broom handle device allows inversion and connection of a broom handle to a broom head and grip when one end of the broom handle breaks. The device includes a broom head having a threaded aperture. A first end of a broom handle is externally threaded complementary to the threaded aperture. A second end of the broom handle is also externally threaded complementary to the threaded aperture wherein the first end and the second end are each threadingly engageable to the broom head. A grip is engageable to the broom handle by sliding the broom handle into an open end of the grip.

Cleaning broom
09622567 · 2017-04-18 ·

The cleaning broom is disclosed. The cleaning broom according to the present invention comprises: a rod-shaped handle that is formed long in one direction so that the user can hold the broom by hand; the comb portion that consists of multiple comb members and is attached to the lower part of the handle to sweep cleaning objects; and the conversion unit that allows to adjust the arrangement angle of the comb members between the first mode where the comb members are arranged in parallel with the handle and the second mode where the comb members are arranged to intersect with the handle.

Broom head with bristle structure

In respect of the problem of specifying a broom head which can readily sweep up differently sized particles and mixtures of the same, a broom head comprising a basic body (100), from which clusters (1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13) of bristles project, characterized in that the clusters (1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13) have a cross section which is neither round nor circular.

Double action push broom
09609939 · 2017-04-04 · ·

The double action push broom of the present invention includes a dynamic double action dual brush head and a broom handle. The dynamic double action dual brush head includes two brush heads rotatably attached to a brush head base, allowing the brush heads to independently rotate about the axis in which it is rotatably attached to the brush head base. A mechanical device capable of storing and releasing energy is connected between the two brush heads, which is rigidly attached to the brush head base. The double action push broom stores kinetic energy in the form of potential energy in the mechanical energy storage device of the dynamic double action dual brush head during the sweeping stroke of the double action push broom. At the end of the sweeping stroke, the stored potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and rotates the dual brush, thereby providing an additional sweeping motion.
