ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to new and useful brush making apparatus which allows the manufacture of a wide variety of different type brush constructions having flared tufts. The apparatus is capable of picking, trimming and assembling all the synthetic filament tufts required in a tufted brush construction simultaneously and fusing the tufts at different angles from one another onto a separate substrate. The apparatus comprises a filament stock box for dispensing cut-to-length synthetic filament, a new and improved picking element containing movable means for changing the parallel attitude of at least two adjacent picker tubes, melting means for fusing one end of the synthetic filament, and mounting means for attaching fused filament ends onto a substrate.
