Grounding brush assembly

A grounding brush assembly comprising:

• a grounding brush including a support and a plurality of conductive fibers disposed at least partially within the support, the support having a mounting portion, a first lateral rim extending from one axial side of the mounting portion and a second lateral rim extending from another axial side of the mounting portion, the first and second lateral rims axially gripping the conductive fibers;
• and
• a brush mounting plate having an axial thickness and at least one through opening extending through the thickness of the mounting plate;
• wherein the support of the brush further includes at least one tab extending through the at least one through opening of the mounting plate, the at least one tab having a bent free end interacting with the mounting plate so as to axially retain the support of the brush with respect to the mounting plate, the bent free end being located axially on a side of the mounting plate opposite to the support with respect to the mounting plate.
