A sandbag filling system includes a support frame, a driving unit, a conveyor unit, and a hopper chute. The support frame includes a feed gate and an adjustable mount and is configured to receive a material and guide the material to a conveyor belt. The driving unit is arranged in the support frame and includes a motor connected to a drive shaft. The conveyor unit is arranged in the support frame as well and includes a conveyor belt configured to be moved by the driving unit. The hopper chute is arranged below the feed gate of the support frame and located proximal to the conveyor belt.

Banknote processing equipment is disclosed, which comprises a chamber having an open end for insertion of a bag into the chamber and an extractor adapted to establish a lower ambient pressure between the chamber and the bag to that within the bag to cause the bag to expand into an open configuration during a banknote filling operation, whereby the banknote processing equipment can deposit banknotes in the bag.

An apparatus for the manual or machine production of a tube-like packaging material from a paper supply unit, such as a paper strip wound up to a roll, includes a roll longitudinal axis and forming an inner hollow space, or a paper strip folded to a Leporello stack defining an upper side, from which the paper strip is drawable for forming the packaging material. A guiding chute has an opening for ejecting the packaging material from a paper supply unit arranged in an ejection position. The guiding chute has an inner contour narrowing in an ejection direction towards an opening. A receiving arrangement, such as a tube magazine, encompasses at least one paper supply unit at least partly circumferentiatingly with paper supply units arranged sequentially behind each other, wherein the apparatus having a movable transport, such as a slide, for displacing at least the at least one paper supply unit in the ejection direction.

An apparatus for the collection of debris such as leaves and other yard debris having a flat-pack configuration and a hoop-like configuration. In a hoop-like configuration, the apparatus allows the fixation of a bag such that the bag is held open and allows the user to dispose debris through the apparatus and into the bag.

Embodiments of a trash bag are disclosed. In one embodiment, the trash bag includes a flexible bag body and one or more inflatable chambers that extend along the flexible bag body. The inflatable chambers may be configured to hold the flexible bag body upright and maintain the top bag opening in an open position when the inflatable chambers are inflated. In this manner, the inflatable chambers can provide sufficient structural integrity so that a trash can is not needed to use the trash bag.

A collection receptacle apparatus includes a base having a sloped surface and a horizontal surface for engaging the opening of a disposable receptacle. The apparatus includes a receptacle attachment member having a pair of vertical members depending from the base, the vertical members coupled via a horizontal member. Attachment means is used to connect or couple the disposable receptacle (e.g., trash bag) to the receptacle attachment member.

A sand bag filling device comprises a trailer having a foldable post with a distribution head at a top of the vertical post. This distribution head is attached to a plurality of filling spouts which extend downwardly and outwardly from the head to positions surrounding the head. A rotatable chute is positioned at the top of the head for receiving sand from a conveyor and for supplying that sand to each in turn of the filling spouts. The post is formed in three portions each pivotally movable relative to the next, with an intermediate post portion pivotally hinged to a top and a bottom post portion at diametrically opposite sides of the post. The filling spouts are attached via readily releasable couplings to funnels communicating the rotatable chute in appropriate position therewith. There may be up to 18 to 24 spouts.
