Abstract: A C-shaped support frame fits to the upper entry of a lawn and/or refuse bag to hold the bag open for receiving leaves or waste. The support frame includes retention structure in the form of a pair of deflectable beams and associated cutouts, each of U-shape, wherein the bag material is engaged by the beam when the beam is snap-fitted back into the cutout associated therewith. The retention structure may include two pairs of U-shaped beams, the beams of each pair being relatively deflectable and grippingly engageable with the bag material when the beams are snap-fitted into their respective cutouts.

Abstract: A disposable cleaning head and adapter therefor are positioned in a receptacle of predetermined cross-section at the forward end of a handle, the adapter converting the receptacle for use with cleaning heads having a different mounting cross-section. The cleaning head includes a base member of predetermined cross-section and configured for removable fitment in the converted receptacle, a cleaning member, and a holder for connecting the cleaning member to the base. Various cleaning heads are disclosed, one wherein a plurality of sponge-like cleaning strips radiate outwardly from the holder and form a ball, much like a sunburst, with the holder being fixed or mounted in a ball-joint socket relation to permit the “sunburst” to rotate relative to the base, another wherein a sponge like element is mounted to or removably interengaged with the holder, such as via piercing or complementary retention structure operating between the sponge element and the holder.

Abstract: A sponge for cleaning a vehicular grille has a multilayered polyester polyol-based polyurethane wherein the upper and lower layers are each a flexible polyester polyurethane foam and the central or medial layer is a reticulated polyurethane foam. The layers are bonded together. The sponge has a first serrated side edge and an opposed semicircular side edge enabling at least one edges to be inserted into the interstices of an automotive grille.
