Rotating Drum Push Broom

Abstract

A rotating drum push broom has a housing, an interior compartment, a pair of of wheel hubs, an axle, a drum brush, and a pair of motion transfer assemblies. The interior compartment traverses into a base surface of the housing and the pair of wheel hubs are mounted onto opposite sides of the housing. The axle traverses through the housing and the interior compartment and the wheel hubs are terminally connected to the axle. Drum brush is rotatably mounted around the axle. The motion transfer assemblies is a set of actuators that force the drum brush to rotate in a direction that is opposite to the wheel's direction of rotation.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A rotating drum push broom comprising:
 a housing;   an interior compartment;   a plurality of wheel hubs;   an axle;   a drum brush;   a handle;   a plurality of motion transfer assemblies;   the interior compartment normally traversing into the housing;   a first wheel hub being mounted adjacent to the housing, wherein the first wheel hub is from the plurality of wheel hubs;   a second wheel hub being mounted adjacent to the housing, opposite to the first wheel hub, wherein the second wheel hub is from the plurality of wheel hubs;   the axle traversing through the housing and the interior compartment;   the axle being connected in between the first wheel hub and the second wheel hub;   the drum brush being rotatably mounted around the axle; and   each of the plurality of motion transfer assemblies being operatively coupled in between a corresponding wheel hub and the drum brush, wherein rotation of the corresponding wheel hub in one direction induces rotation of the drum brush an opposite direction;   the handle being mounted adjacent to the housing.   
     
     
         2 . The rotating drum push broom as claimed in  claim 1  comprising:
 a mounting hole; 
 the mounting hole longitudinally traversing through the housing, the interior compartment, and the drum brush; and 
 the axle be engaged though the mounting hole. 
 
     
     
         3 . The rotating drum push broom as claimed in  claim 1  comprising:
 each of the plurality of wheel hubs comprising a wheel body and a hub receptacle; 
 each of the plurality of the motion transfer assemblies comprising a hub gear, a brush gear, and a motion transfer gear; 
 the hub receptacle normally traversing into the wheel body; 
 the wheel body being terminally connected to the axle; 
 the hub gear being integrated within and around the wheel receptacle of the corresponding wheel hub; 
 the brush gear being terminally connected to the drum brush; 
 the motion transfer gear being rotatably mounted onto the housing; 
 the motion transfer gear being positioned in between the wheel body and the housing; and 
 the motion transfer gear being mechanically engaged in between the hub gear and the brush gear. 
 
     
     
         4 . The rotating drum push broom as claimed in  claim 3  comprising:
 a plurality of mounting pegs; and 
 the motion transfer gear from each of the plurality of motion transfer assemblies being rotatably mounted onto a corresponding peg from the plurality of mounting pegs. 
 
     
     
         5 . The rotating drum push broom as claimed in  claim 3  comprising:
 a mounting hole; 
 a plurality of connector receptacles; 
 the brush gear comprising a sprocket, a gear axle and a connector prong; 
 the mounting hole longitudinally traversing through the housing, the interior compartment, the brush gear, and the drum brush; 
 the sprocket being terminally connected to the gear axle; 
 the connector prong being terminally connected to the gear axle, opposite to the sprocket; 
 each of the plurality of connector receptacles terminally traversing into the drum brush; and 
 each connector prong from the plurality of motion transfer assemblies being engaged into a corresponding receptacle from the plurality of connector receptacles. 
 
     
     
         6 . The rotating drum push broom as claimed in  claim 1  comprising:
 a cover; 
 the cover being mounted adjacent to the housing; and 
 the cover being positioned opposite to the interior compartment, across the housing. 
 
     
     
         7 . The rotating drum push broom as claimed in  claim 1  wherein an axis of rotation for the plurality of wheel hubs being colinear with an axis of rotation for the drum brush.
