Abstract: An apparatus for collecting waste material is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a housing, a handle and telescopic arms mounted to the housing. The apparatus comprises a first roller and a second roller. The first roller is mounted to one telescopic arm and the second roller is mounted to the other telescopic arm. The apparatus comprises a sheet dispenser holding a sheet. There is a motor mounted to the sheet dispenser. Squeezing of the handle opens the telescopic arms. The motor is operated in a forward direction to dispense the sheet over the telescopic arms and the rollers. The telescopic arms in open position are aligned with a waste material, and the motor is operated in a reverse direction to rotate the rollers inwards in order to pull the waste material into the sheet. The handle is released to dispose off the sheet comprising the waste material.

Abstract: A box-like luggage item, such as a trunk, has panels forming ends, sides, top, and bottom of the box. Extruded strips having coves therein receive and grip edges of the panels in order to form the panels into the box-like structure. The box-like structure has a lid and a body with some of the extruded strips having a single cove for receiving a lower edge of each side of the lid and other extruded strips receiving an upper edge of each side of the body. Each of these extruded strips contains an area of a predetermined cross section for receiving an arm of an L-shaped bracket having the same predetermined section which strengthens and aligns the corner of the frame. This ability to align corners enables an elimination of a prior art practice of first installing a strip, cutting a notch in the strip, and then removing the notched material in order to mount hardware.
