ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a portable spring-loaded bag holder, workable with a single hand, that securely holds open the mouth of a lawn bag. Parallel handles are gripped and squeezed together in one hand. When the handles are squeezed together, a spring is compressed and a small section of frame is repositioned near a large frame loop. While the holder is held with one hand, the loop is placed within the mouth of a lawn bag, and the top of the mouth of the bag is placed over the small frame with the other hand. Releasing either the inner handle or the outer handle allows the spring to move the inner handle away from the outer handle and to move the small frame away from the large frame loop, thereby tensioning the mouth of the bag around the large loop and the small frame. The placing of the bag on the frame is quickly and easily accomplished in three steps: squeezing the handles, inserting the large loop frame in the mouth of the bag while placing the upper portion of the mouth over the small frame, and then releasing the handles.
