BACKGROUNDThis invention relates generally to a carrier and organizational apparatus which is detachably mounted on a shop vacuum. The shop vacuum can be of any size.
Shop vacuums are used in both commercial and residential setting for cleaning different kinds of messes. Because shop vacuums have a cumbersome geometry, there is no effective way to store or move shop vacuum accessories such as, the shop vacuum's hose or hose extensions, or cleaning supplies. Although some shop vacuums may have built in storage areas for items such as accessories, when the shop vacuum is taken over rough terrain or stairs, for example, the accessories fall out of the built in storage area. Also, most shop vacuums do not have a place to wrap and stow away the electrical cord. Most shop vacuum users simply wrap the cord around the body of the shop vacuum. However, the cord is not secure usually unraveling at the most inopportune moment. The purpose of this invention is to provide users of a shop vacuum with a carrier and organizational apparatus that will resolve the aforementioned issues.
