Abstract
A brush holder assembly providing longer brush life and easy brush replacement is disclosed. The assembly uses a removeable spring bracket to extend a double coil constant force extension spring straddling a brush. The bracket, straddling the spring and brush, is inserted into a brush holder, whereupon it slideably engages the coils of the extension spring, causing it to extend. The bracket is removeable from the holder so that the extension spring and brush can be removed to replace a worn or broken brush.
