I was reading my prior posts. I came across one made about my pa geier hand vacuum. Jeff mentioned rotating brush roll was invented in 1937. I guess that is where idea came from
Im guessing brushes attached to a roller rotating in 360% rotation. This is a brush not rotating in such a fashion. It is still amazing how far advanced this vacuum was. Les |

I dont see how this is any different, as it has bristles on it and rotates 360 degrees.
The original spangler sweeper had a section of broom handle with goats hair bristle stapled to it and rotated 360 degrees while in use. And that one comes from 1907. Are you saying the term "brushr oll" was coined in 1936? |
