View Patent ↗A debris collection system to be attached to a leaf blower apparatus to assist in the collection of lawn debris like leaves, sticks, acorns, fruit, trash, etc. The debris collection system includes a bagging assembly with a flexible bag that collects the debris. The bagging assembly also includes a handle mechanism to allow for the emptying of the flexible bag into a trash bin. The system also includes attachment mechanisms that allow the debris collection system to be easily attached and detached from the leaf blower.
1. A debris collection system configured for use with a leaf blower apparatus comprising:
a bagging assembly, wherein the bagging assembly further comprises:
a flexible bag with an open end and a closed end,
at least one pair of attachment hinge mechanisms affixed to the open end of the flexible bag;
a handle mechanism affixed to the flexible bag; and,
an attachment mechanism to affix the debris collection system to the leaf blower apparatus.
2. The debris collection system of claim 1 , wherein the flexible bag further comprises a mesh bag of woven material, wherein the mesh bag comprises a porous surface.
3. The debris collection system of claim 2 , wherein the porous surface of the mesh bag is air permeable.
4. The debris collection system of claim 1 , wherein the handle mechanism comprises two extending arm structures that are in communication with the at least one pair of attachment hinge mechanism.
5. The debris collection system of claim 1 , wherein the attachment mechanism further comprises at least one mounting strap.
6. The debris collection system of claim 5 , wherein the at least one mounting strap is selected from the design group consisting of hook and loop strap, Velcro, and bungee cord.
7. The debris collection system of claim 1 , wherein the debris collection system is in communication with the leaf blower apparatus by use of an attachment mechanism.
8. The debris collection system of claim 1 , wherein the handle mechanism pivots to orient the bagging assembly to an emptying position to empty any debris in the flexible bag.
9. The debris collection system of claim 4 wherein the attachment mechanism further comprises:
a contact surface portion which is oriented in direct contact with the leaf blower apparatus; and,
the extending arm structures comprise a non-contact surface portion and are not oriented in direct contact with the handheld leaf blower.
10. The debris collection system of claim 4 , wherein the at least two extending arm structures extend outwardly and upwardly away from the attachment mechanism.
11. The debris collection system of claim 1 , wherein the flexible bag is oriented parallel to a ground surface.
12. A debris collection system comprising:
a leaf blower apparatus;
a bagging assembly configured for use with the leaf blower apparatus, wherein the bagging assembly further comprises:
a flexible bag with an open end and a closed end,
at least one pair of attachment hinge mechanisms affixed to the open end of the flexible bag;
