Backpack blowervac collection bag
The present invention is directed to a debris collection bag for a blowervac device that is carried on a user's back. This improves the user's mobility and allows an increased capacity for the collection bag. The bag's location provides a comfortable weight distribution by separating the weight of the blowervac from the weight of the collection bag. The bag has a dust dispersion system to direct dust away from the user. The bag has a closure located on the side which makes emptying the bag easier. The bag closure is provided to make opening and closing the bag easier and faster, and resistant to dust and debris.
