Abstract

An improved push broom assembly is disclosed which includes a shroud portion retaining a plurality of bristles thereon and a neck portion angularly protruding from a face of the shroud portion opposite to that which retains the bristles thereon. The neck portion is comprised of two pieces, a first piece integrally formed with the shroud portion and including a recess, and a second piece designed to removably fit into the above noted recess and to combine with the first piece to comprise a completed neck portion. The completed neck portion comprised of the first and second pieces has internal threads which mesh with external threads on a broom handle and further includes exterior threads which mesh with a cap device having interior threads thereon and threaded over the neck portion so as to retain the first and second pieces thereof together.
