ABSTRACT:
A net structure includes a handle having a rigid hoop secured thereto. A flexible bag having an openable top portion defining the mouth of the bag has a plurality of connector means secured at spaced intervals thereto. These connector means are also freely slidably attached to the rigid hoop to pendantly secure the bag to the hoop. These connector means are moveable from a relative positional arrangement wherein they are spaced apart about the hoop to define the open mouth position of the bag to a second relative positional arrangement wherein such connector means are grouped together on the hoop to define the closed mouth position of the bag. An elastic member is connected between selected ones of the connector means such that as the latter are made to slide along the hoop between the first and second relative positional arrangements, the distance between said selected ones of the connector means is varied. As this variation occurs, the elastic member is first made to increase in length and then allowed to decrease in length and to at least partially relax whereby to assist in resilently retaining the bag in both the open mouth and closed mouth positions thereof and/or resiliently biasing the bag toward the open and closed mouth positions thereof.
