Abstract: An apparatus for lawn maintenance incorporates the usual features of a lawn mower plus means which achieve the mulching and collection of lawn debris. The apparatus is provided with a wheel-equipped housing having an apertured upper deck upon which an engine is centered. Conduits extend from the apertures to a collector box positioned above the engine. The cutting blade has upturned extremities positioned to pass beneath the apertures. During rotary motion of the blade, air and debris are propelled upward through the apertures and conduits into the collector box. The debris is mulched by counter-rotating intermeshed blades positioned within the collector box, and blown into a porous collector bag carried by a handle attached to said housing.

Abstract: A ground working implement is provided wherein a motor driven auger is positioned beneath and partially enclosed by a truncated V-shaped plowshare. The auger contributes to the forward movement of the implement. The space between the auger and the plowshare causes clods of soil to be uniformly broken. Mechanical features are provided, in association with a frame structure, to guide the implement, to adjust the height of the auger, and to control the operation of a motor or engine.

Abstract: Apparatus useable by a bather for facilitating the scrubbing of the back including a wall mounted, conventionally controlled, electric motor enclosed within a substantially water tight housing; a flexible shaft component having a rotatable flexible shaft element interconnected with the shaft of such motor to be rotatably driven thereby; and a brush arm component having an elongated hand grip section, an elongated body section interconnected therewith, and a head section interconnected with such body section thereof carrying a rotatable shaft element extending therefrom perpendicularly to the longitudinal centerline of such hand grip section thereof.
