Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an eco-friendly lightweight broom with antibacterial treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, a rod-shaped broom consists of a handle at the top and comb teeth at the bottom.

[0003] The handle is a part formed in a long, rod-like shape to be held by hand; it is typically made by processing wood into a long rod, molding synthetic resin material into a rod shape, or using long bamboo.

[0004] The comb member is a part formed by gathering multiple comb teeth together so that it can be combined with the handle to sweep the floor, and it is made by bundling together strands of synthetic resin material molded into a strand shape, by cutting bamboo into thin strand shapes and bundling them together, or by using natural materials such as tree branches.

[0005] The comb member is designed to be joined to the handle through a separate joining means or through an adhesive material.

[0006] Related prior art is disclosed in Korean Patent Application No. 10-2008-0105711, "Knotless broom using a fixing member."

[0007] Looking at the prior art patent, it relates to a knotless broom using a fixing member that allows the broom to be formed without a knot by forming a feather connector at the lower tip of a handle molded from wood or plastic, forming a feather fixing member in a space formed inside the body of the feather connector, and assembling the feather by inserting the feather into the feather fixing member, the feather fixing member solidifies and is fixed integrally to the feather connector together with the feather.

[0008] Meanwhile, conventionally, brooms have been provided in a fan shape by embedding multiple teeth into the main body, but since synthetic resin is used as the material, there is a problem of causing environmental pollution when they are eventually discarded.

[0009] In addition, while there were no issues with using it when sweeping light materials, it has the disadvantage of making the work difficult when sweeping heavy materials, snow, or standing water because the strength of the bristles is weak. Prior art literature
