ABSTRACT:
A broom assembly of a basically wooden push broom comprises a wooden head portion including top and bottom surfaces, leading and trailing edge portions and remote lateral extremities, considering the direction of its movement in use. This head has a laterally centered throughbore opening at one end from the tope thereof adjacent its trailing edge and at its opposite end from the bottom thereof, adjacent its leading edge. A counterbore of the upper end of this throughbore produces an outwardly and rearwardly facing annular shoulder in its bounding wall surface. Securely wedged within this throughbore, towards its bottom, is the short tubular body portion of a rigid plastic adapter means, an external flange at the base end of which overlies the bottom of the head and an external lip at the upper end of which clamps over the aforementioned shoulder in the wall bounding the upper end of the throughbore. The adapter means is thereby clamped to and contains within the axial limits thereof an integral part of the head. In the lodging thereof within the throughbore, differentially formed portions of the external surface of the tubular body portion of the adapter means differentially wedge in its bounding wall surface, effectively precluding its relative rotative displacement. A small portion of the inner surface of the adapter means has a short truncated thread the form of which enables an easy and most secure connection thereto of a complementarily formed portion of an applied handle.
