Abstract
A vehicle mounted broom that has a modular construction, improved sweeping action and versatile mounting capabilities. The modular construction allows wings to be attached to the main housing to increase the length of the broom and, if desired, the sweep angle. The broom has uniquely configured brushes that reduce greatly or eliminate rocking of the brushes with respect to the housing to which they are removably mounted. The versatile mounting system includes mounting brackets fixed to the housing which receive various mounting packages for mounting to different vehicles.
