Patent number: 12668419Abstract: Large, pliable/flexible bags are widely used for collecting and discarding garden and lawn debris. Unfortunately, these bags alone make it very difficult for a single worker to both hold open the bag and deposit debris into the bag at the same time. Attempts have been made to provide frames for supporting an open bag to help a single user rake leaves and debris into a bag by him/herself; none have ever been created to blow leaves and other debris directly into a bag with a powered leaf blower—the device in this patent application is designed to do just that. Very significantly, the present invention is a foldable/collapsible self-contained fully assembled frame (hereinafter “the frame”) for the attachment of a perforated bag thereby requiring no additional add-on or separate frame parts to both fully function and to fold up for convenient storage, packaging, and transportability.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2024Date of Patent: June 30, 2026Inventors: Timothy James Petrin, Robert Alan Bard, Douglas Aaron Bard
