Abstract (en)

Device for sweepers or the like fitted with brooms. The broom comprises resilient, bendable bristles (20) with different bending resistance in in different directions. The bristles are so mounted in the sweeper that when they are brought into contact with the surface to be cleaned they are bent essentially in the direction of the lowest bending resistance and away from the desired direction of sweep. When the bristles leave the surface they spring back into the desired direction of sweep.
