A tool assembly includes an elongated handle and a locking system for attaching a tool head to the handle. The tool head can be a floor care tool or other accessory that can be attached to the handle such that the elongated length of the handle can aid in the use of the tool attached. The locking system includes a keyed locking collar for engaging at least a first portion of the tool head, and a locking cap rotatably positioned on the handle for engaging a second portion of the tool head. The handle can be extendable, such as by telescoping, and can also be overmolded.

Abstract:
A floor care tool set includes generally complementary floor care tools, such as a broom and a receptacle for receiving items moved by the broom. To hold the tools together, such as when not in use, a clip is used to at least temporarily connect handles of the tools to one another. The clip includes an element such as a magnet that attracts the handle of one of the tools to hold the tool in place at the magnet. The clip may be attached to the other tool in a more permanent, but still removable, manner. The tools may also include grip portions that interact with one another to provide another location of connection. The clip can also be attached to a wall mount or generally inverted to be hung on a surface.
