ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for holding at least one bag in an inverted position to allow the bag to be sprayed with water for cleaning and then air dried. A support base, resting on a flat surface, has a top face with a plurality of engagement slots therein. At least one frame is included, each frame having two arms, each arm being segmented into two portions pivotally joined at their ends. The support base has two clips to hold at least one frame for compact storage and portability. The ends of each arm are adapted for engagement into said engagement slots. One portion of each arm is pivotally joined to the like portion of the other arm to allow the joined portions to move in scissor-like motion. The distal ends of each arm are adjusted so that the distance between the distal ends is approximately equal to the inside dimension of the bag, the bag being placed in an inverted position over the arms. Each portion of the arms around the points of pivotal joining have a roughened surface to permit two portions to frictionally engage each other and allow the arms to maintain a set position against minor forces. Each portion of the arms has an upset surface to permit two portions to engage each other to facilitate the setting of a preferred set position.
