Abstract
The Leaf Blower Apparatus Attachment is an attachable apparatus that converts a portable leaf blower machine into a “Dry Materials” distribution unit. The flow of the dry materials is gauged by the open/close slide release handle, which is molded or fitted to the drop box. Gravity is utilized allowing dry materials within the container to be emitted via the hollow tube utilizing the angled drop lip that creates aerodynamic airflow releasing all dry materials via the open end of the hollowed tube for even distribution of said dry materials. When filling the Leaf Blower Apparatus Attachment container it rests steadily on two legs.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The Leaf Blower Apparatus Attachment provides a readily portable and attachable apparatus that takes account of a means to convert a portable leaf blower machine into a dry materials distribution unit for quick efficient even distribution amongst the hardest places/areas to reach by human delivery. Utilizing the “Angled Drop Lip” labeled as (A) in Drawings and Photos.

REFERENCES TO SPECIFIC PROBLEMS INVOLVED IN THE PRIOR ART

Gravity is utilized allowing the dry materials within the container to be emitted via airflow produced by the leaf blower machine. “Prior Art” does not contain a method for air that is circulated back into the container where “dry materials” are, causing build-up in the container instead of releasing all dry materials.


BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The Leaf Blower Apparatus Attachment consists of a container molded or fitted to a drop box that is molded or fitted with an open/close sliding handle, that said drop box is molded or fitted to a hollowed tube that is molded or fitted with an angled drop lip directly under the drop box, that is essential for aero dynamical air flow, and an angled three sided cover at the open end of the tube for even distribution, the apparatus attachment while mounted to the actual leaf blower sits on two legs for support while filling.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The Leaf Blower Apparatus Attachment consists of a container (Claim) molded together with an (B) open/close sliding handle release (A) drop box mounted to a (C) hollowed tube with a same size cut hole attached to an (D) angled drop lip inside the (C) hollowed tube, that allows aerodynamically flow to continually carry “Dry Materials” quickly and efficiently to any location by utilizing the air from the leaf blower machine. The open end where the “Dry Materials” are emitted has an (F) angled three-sided cover for even square footage distribution of “Dry Materials” which can be done from a standing/sitting position by pivoting the leaf blower machine with the said (Claim) attached. Because gravity is utilized allowing the dry materials within the container to be emitted via hollow tube the angled drop lip creates a method of continual dry material airflow releasing all dry materials. When filling the Leaf Blower Apparatus Attachment container it rests steadily on (E) two legs.
