ABSTRACT:
A mechanical chimney sweep including a spark arrester; a winch-pulley-cable assembly; a brush attached to the cable; and a counterweight depending from the brush. The spark arrester, which prevents lit material from exiting the flue, is attachable to a flue lining or flue pipe by means of a bracket without screws, bolts, or other fastening devices. The arrester supports the pulley about which the cable is threaded; the winch being externally mounted, as on the side of a house. The counterweight serves as a weight for moving the brush down the flue for cleaning and also functions as a weight holding the spark arrester in place.
