Abstract: A bag holder assembly is provided for suspending a storage bag and maintaining the orifice of the bag in the open position. The bag holder includes a base member, a plurality of bag support members, and a bag attachment means. The base member is preferably comprised of multiple beams joined together by a connecting means. The bag support members attach to and extend from the base member. Each bag support member comprises a bag attachment means for grasping and securing a portion of the bag to the bag support member. Once the opposing lips of the bag are secured against opposing bag support members, the orifice of the bag will remain open due to tension generated by the respective bag support members, thus allowing the use of two hands to place items in the bag or remove contents from the bag.

Abstract: An apparatus for rotating elongated members of rectangular cross section, such as board lumber, is disclosed. The apparatus includes a pair of conveyors arranged so that the boards will cascade from the end of one conveyor onto the other conveyor by force of gravity, rotating in the process. A dampening mechanism to reduce the impact caused by the fall is also disclosed. The dampening mechanism allows the members to be delicately balanced on any side. After an inspection, the boards are turned again to position them for final processing. This second rotation is performed by halting the leading edge ofthe boards, at either the top or bottom, and propelling the opposite edge forward with a rubber wheel.
