  • Patent number: 9616549
    Abstract: A dust collection system for an orbital sander is provided to assist a user in containing residual dust particles when sanding. The device includes a stretchable band, a flexible transparent housing, and a vacuum hose portal. The stretchable top band has a fastening system that fastens around the neck of the sander to create a seal. The flexible transparent housing with an open lower portion fastens closely around a lower region of the sander and a sanding plate, which enables a user to have visibility of the area being sanded. The vacuum hose portal connects to a vacuum hose to suck the dust that is created by the sander. The device can be added to a new orbital sander or retrofitted to an existing orbital sander. The device enables a user to sand in a conventional manner while preventing the spread of dust and debris when using an orbital sander.
