Abstract
An adjustable brush glider mountable to a brush block to provide a surface for supporting the brush block a selected distance away from a floor. Complimentary inclined spacers are carried respectively by the brush glider and the brush block. One of the spacers is rotatable with respect to the other to selectively alter the spacing of the brush glider from the brush block.

An adjustable brush glider for attachment to a rotary scrubbing brush of the type having tufts depending from a brush block, comprising:
- a glide member having a gliding surface;
- adjustment means for mounting the glide member to the brush block and enabling adjustment of the glide member to selectively space the glide surface from the brush block, the adjustment means including complimentary inclined spacers carried respectively by the glide member and the brush, one of the spacers being rotatable with respect to the other to selectively alter the spacing of the glide surface from the brush block;
- and
- attachment means for removably coupling the glide member to the brush block.
An adjustable brush glider for attachment to a rotary scrubbing brush of the type having tufts depending from a brush block, comprising:
- a glide member having a generally circular, planar gliding surface;
- adjustment means for enabling adjustment of the glide member to selectively space the gliding surface from the brush block, the adjustment means including a plurality of stair-step portions carried by the glide member and a ring-shaped inclined spacer having complimentary stair-step portions which engage and cooperate with corresponding stair-step portions carried by the glide member, the spacer being rotatable with respect to the brush block and the glide member, the stair-step portions including complimentary camming surfaces carried adjacent each stair-step for sliding engagement to facilitate rotational movement of the stair-steps with respect to one another, the inclined spacer including a plurality of axial projections receivable in a complimentary groove in the brush block to permit rotational movement of the spacer with respect to the brush block;
- and
- attachment means for removably coupling the glide member to the brush block including a plurality of bolts which are received through openings in the glide member and threadlingly received in openings in the brush block.
