  • Patent number: 6679652
    Abstract: A concrete finishing tool includes a float and texturing brush installed upon the distal end of an elongate handle. The float and handle connection may include a mechanism for adjusting the plane of the float relative to the handle axis, if desired. A pair of brackets extends from the upper surface of the float, with a texturing broom or brush adjustably secured to the distal ends of the brackets. The brackets allow the broom to be adjusted linearly and/or angularly relative to the plane of the float, to provide a bristle rake angle and/or penetration depth as desired. The finishing tool, with its adjustable texturing broom, allows a concrete worker to begin texturing a freshly poured concrete surface as it is being smoothed, with the worker adjusting the broom for a consistent finish texture as the concrete changes its viscosity during the curing process.
