A bag filling assembly for holding a bag open for filling the bag includes a basket that is selectively positioned in a bag to retain the bag in an open position for filling the bag. A plurality of clips is provided and each of the clips is movably coupled to the basket. Each of the clips frictionally engages the bag to releasably retain the bag on the basket.

An exemplary bag frame includes a framework to be inserted into and hold open a paper grocery bag which is then used as a trash/waste, sorting, collecting or storage receptacle. The bag frame includes four spaced apart vertical legs and that are configured to be inserted within the four corner edges of the paper bag. A planar upper rim connects the upper ends of the four legs and covers the upper edge of the paper bag. The bag frame resembles a small table with an almost completely open top. The vertical legs in the top rim are coupled in a snap-fit manner for easy assembly and disassembly.

A wheeled bag holder is described. In some examples, the wheeled bag holder can include a first curved frame member having a first end and a second end and a curved surface that substantially conforms to a circle's curvature, or at least a portion or a segment of the circle's curvature, and a second curved frame member having a first end and a second end and a curved surface that substantially conforms to a circle's curvature, or at least a portion or a segment of the circle's curvature. The wheeled bag holder can also include a first vertical frame member connected to the first curved frame member and the second curved frame member, a second vertical frame member connected to the first curved frame member and the second curved frame member, and a third vertical frame member connected to the first curved frame member and the second curved frame member.

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.

A fitment mounting apparatus for mounting a hold open fitment to flexible packaging, wherein the hold open fitment has a flexible configuration variable between a first un-distended shape and a second stably distended shape, including a frame forming a holder configured for holding more than one of the hold open fitments within the holder, a flexible packaging positioning system arranged for positioning flexible packaging for mounting the hold open fitment to the flexible packaging, and an applicator coupled to the frame configured to engage at least one edge of the hold open fitment in the holder and bias the at least one edge so that the hold open fitment is singulated, from others of the more than one hold open fitments in the holder, and issued from the holder into the flexible packaging on the flexible packaging positioning system substantially simultaneous with singulation.

There is provided a shovel apparatus including a body with a bottom and two sides. Each side is fixedly coupled to a side edge of the bottom, and includes a front and a back adjacent to a front edge and a back edge of the bottom, respectively. A first handle is coupled to each side. A second handle is coupled to each side and extends past the back of each side and away from the shovel apparatus. The shovel apparatus is sized to hold the bag or sack in an open position for filling and the shovel apparatus has a length less than a length of the bag or sack such that when the shovel apparatus is inserted in the bag or sack, the second handle touches near a bottom of the bag or sack and the first handle is near a top of the bag or sack.

A linen hamper made of a light weight tubular frame for releasably securing a hamper bag includes an open top which can be closed by a pivotally mounted lid. The lid is connected to a foot pedal pivotally mounted on the frame, by an adjustable control rod pivotally connected to each. A closing cylinder is biased to close the lid when pressure is removed from the foot pedal. However, the control rod is adjustable to a second state in which the pivot point of its connection to the lid is aligned or is over center relative to the pivot point of the lid, and with respect to the closing force exerted by the control rod on the lid, such that the closing cylinder cannot close the lid until the lid is tapped forwardly slightly.

A trash bag holder, including a bag to receive objects therein, and a bag holder, including a first body including an opening, a second body to receive the bag therein, such that the second body receives the first body therein to clamp the bag between the first body and the second body, a first door attached to a first top side portion of the first body via a first hinge, and a second door attached to a second top side portion of the first body opposite the first top side portion of the first body via a second hinge.

A foldable support sleeve that is deployable inside of a waste bag to support the waste bag includes a first side foldably connected to a second side, the second side foldably connected to a third side, the third side foldably connected to a fourth side, and the fourth side foldably connected to a fifth side. The foldable support sleeve may be foldable into a pre-deployed state and into a deployed state. The pre-deployed state may be associated with a first cross section that is smaller than a second cross section associated with the deployed state. The second cross section may be approximately equal to a cross section associated with the waste bag. The fifth side may help retain the foldable support sleeve in the deployed state.

A container opening support system, including an annular member and a securement assembly, positionable inside of an open end of a flexible membrane.
