Abstract

A yard waste bag holding apparatus includes a rectangular-shaped frame, two foldable arm assemblies, and a ring with a flange for abutting the top of the arm assemblies. A bag may be attached to the ring, holding the bag open and upright and preventing it from collapsing, folding in on itself, or blowing or tipping over. The user may insert a greater volume of yard waste into the bag at one time, thus increasing efficiency. An insert for engaging a hose of a vacuum to the ring may be added. Further, a wheel attachment may be coupled to the frame to place the apparatus at a given angle. Placing the apparatus at an angle prevents the apparatus from tipping during use with a vacuum and reduces the stress at the joining of the hose and the apparatus.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims priority to co-pending U.S. provisional patent application entitled “Leaf Bag Holding Apparatus”, Ser. No. 61 / 500,713, filed on Jun. 24, 2011, and is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Yard waste bags are well known in the art. Typically, the bags are opened and set on the ground without support while yard waste is placed inside the bags. However, the bags often collapse or tilt during use, which lowers the efficiency of yard waste gathering and raising the frustration level for the user.BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0003]According to one embodiment of the present invention, a yard waste bag holding apparatus comprises: a frame, comprising: a first top bar; a first bottom bar; and a first side bars coupled to the first top bar and the first bottom bar to form a rectangular-shaped frame; a first arm assembly, comprising: a second top bar; a second bottom bar; an...
