Curb broom device

A curb brush device comprising:

• a frame, said frame being configured for attachment to a vehicle such that said frame extends forwardly from the vehicle, said frame including a frame attachment bracket and a rail coupled to said frame attachment bracket, said rail being pivotally coupled to said frame attachment bracket;
• a brush arm coupled to said rail, said brush arm extending laterally from said rail, said brush arm being adjustably extendable from said rail;
• a brush, said brush being coupled to said brush arm, said brush being rotatable wherein said brush is configured for sweeping a surface laterally offset from the vehicle, said brush being cylindrical, said brush including a plurality of bristles arranged and extending radially relative to a central axis of said brush, said plurality of bristles being flexible wherein said brush is configured for conforming to a shape of a curb formed by the surface laterally offset from the vehicle;
• a motor coupled to said frame, said motor being operationally coupled to said brush wherein said motor rotates said brush, said motor being hydraulic, said brush being rotated by said motor such that a bottom of said brush is configured to move in a forward direction on the surface laterally offset from the vehicle;
• an extension ram, said extension ram having a primary end coupled to said rail, said pivot ram having a secondary end coupled to said brush arm wherein extension and retraction of said extension ram adjusts a length of extension of the brush arm from the rail, said extension ram being hydraulic;
• a cover coupled to said brush arm, said cover being arcuate such that said cover is positioned concentric with respect to said brush, said cover extending upwardly and forwardly from said brush arm wherein said cover extends from said brush arm over a top of said brush;
• and
• said rail being one of a pair of rails, said pair of rails being parallel and horizontally oriented, said brush arm being one of a pair of brush arms, each brush arm of said pair of brush arms being coupled to and extendable from a respective rail of said pair of rails.

A curb brush device for use with a vehicle having a forward movement direction, the curb brush device comprising:

• a frame configured for attachment to the vehicle such that said frame is positioned forwardly of the vehicle, said frame including a frame attachment bracket and a rail pivotally coupled to said frame attachment bracket such that said rail pivots with respect to said attachment bracket about a vertical axis when said frame is mounted on the vehicle for use;
• a brush arm coupled to said rail, said brush arm extending in a lateral direction with respect to the forward movement direction of the vehicle, said brush arm being extendable and retractable with respect to said rail along a lateral movement axis;
• and
• a brush coupled to said brush arm, said brush being rotatable wherein said brush is configured for sweeping a surface laterally offset from the vehicle;
• wherein said brush is configured for sweeping a surface forward of the vehicle when said brush arm is retracted and sweeping a surface laterally offset from the vehicle when said brush arm is extended.
