  • Patent number: 11572748
    Abstract: An improved vacuum device for use with a vacuum assisted post hole digger tool. The improved vacuum device includes two suction providing motors with their suction outlets connected in a parallel fashion directly to a filter box. The dual motor configuration provides significantly improved suction power over existing vacuum devices but is still able to be powered on household 120V AC power. The improved vacuum device is paired with a post hole digger apparatus which includes an elongated hollow tubular tool for transmitting vacuum to the base end of the tube. The base end of the tube further comprises a variety bore heads for breaking up soil. A variety of devices for breaking up soil or removing clogs around the bore head are included: a thrasher bar, a hammer bar and an unclogger bar. Each of these devices are designed to be activated either manually by the user by application of force at the upper end of the tool or by application of rotary force by a motor disposed at the top of the housing.

  • Patent number: 7331369
    Abstract: A magnet holder constructed of a resilient material as a plural-sided box has an open side. A bar magnet within the magnet holder extends outwardly from the open side. A second side of the box has an arcuate convex shape extending outwardly. A hollow door frame strut provides a first interior surface abutting a third side of the box. The magnet abuts a second interior surface of the strut with the second side of the box abutting a third interior surface such that the arcuate shape is flattened, springfully wedging the box between the first and second interior surfaces of the strut and securing the magnet holder in place within the strut.
