ABSTRACT:
A brace for a tool having an elongated handle and a working head disposed perpendicularly to the handle, such as a push broom, has a slidable collar and a pair of buttress rods. The working head is provided with a pair of holes on a top side, each hole being spaced from a center of the tool head on opposite ends of the tool head with respect to the center. The buttress rods are thick wires, each have a downward facing prong inclined for insertion into each respective hole for engaging in tension and compression. Each buttress rod generally defines a leg portion angled upwards from the prong and tool head towards the handle. An upper end of each buttress likewise has a prong or arm angled so as to lay flat adjacent the broom handle, parallel to a longitudinal axis of the handle and also engaging in tension and compression. The upper prongs fit into oppositely disposed channels of a collar fixed axially on the handle. A thumb screw or the like passes through a threaded bore radially disposed through the collar body is used to fix the collar in place on the tool handle, axially and against rotation.
