Abstract (en)

[origin: US2009083935A1] A sweeping broom apparatus comprises a main body with a debris receiving inlet, and a broom shroud with an open bottom and a main sweeping broom mounted within the broom shroud for propelling debris forwardly from the surface being cleaned, thereby creating a stream of debris propelled forwardly through the forwardly facing debris outlet. An air blast nozzle assembly has an air blast nozzle connected in fluid communication to a source of compressed air for receiving compressed air therefrom. A nozzle mount is for mounting the air blast nozzle to emit air in a forward and downward direction, and in movable relation on the broom shroud for movement to any selected one of a plurality of aimed positions, whereat the outlet of the air blast nozzle is aimable adjacent the area of contact of the main sweeping broom.
