112,178. Bland, F., and Banks, H. Jan. 24, 1917. Bristles, fixing; wire brushes: mops.-A brush or mop comprises a tuft 3 of textile, metallic, or other fibre, bent back upon itself and carried within a coiled spring 2, to which the handle also is secured. The tuft is preferably secured by a wire loop 4, the ends 5 of which are bent to engage a coil of the spring 2. In the modification shown in Fig. 2, the tuft-holding part 8 of the spring is of conical formation. A pad of woven material, bent back upon itself, may be used instead of fibres.
