ABSTRACT:
A holder for supporting articles such as brooms in suspension comprises a support member for a pair of pivotal arms displaceable towards and away from one another and adapted to receive an article therebetween. The arms have inner ends in the form of balls received in corresponding sockets in the support member, and the arms extend outwardly from the balls through slots provided therefor in the support member. The ball and socket arrangement provides for the arms to pivot relative to the support member in planes which incline downwardly and inwardly relative to a vertical plane between the arms, and about pivot axes which incline upwardly and forwardly and converge toward the vertical plane. Springs interposed between the balls and corresponding sockets bias the arms towards one another.
