Abstract
An animal waste bag includes a central pouch and one or more additional pouches formed exterior to the central pouch such that each additional pouch is successively exterior to the preceding pouch. The central and additional pouches are configured to successively retrieve and contain animal waste via their respective successive inversion.
Claims19
An animal waste bag comprised of;
- first and second walls sealed at a first plurality of respective peripheral edges, wherein a first edge of the first plurality of respective edges is unsealed so as to create a first pouch;
- a third wall sealed to one of the first and second walls at a second plurality of respective peripheral edges, wherein a second edge of the second plurality of respective edges is unsealed so as to create a second pouch, wherein the one of the first and second walls is a shared wall between the first pouch and the second pouch;
- wherein the second pouch is configured to invert to retrieve a first waste of material by a user's hand;
- wherein the first pouch is configured to invert to retrieve a second waste of material by the user's hand;
- and
- wherein the shared wall defines a protective shield that is configured to protect the user's hand from contacting both the first waste of material and the second waste of material during the retrieval of the second waste material and after retrieval of the first material.
A method for retrieving animal waste using an animal waste bag, wherein the animal waste bag comprises first and second walls sealed at a first plurality of respective peripheral edges, wherein a first edge of the first plurality of respective edges is unsealed so as to create at least a first pouch, at least a third wall sealed to one of the first and second walls at a second plurality of respective peripheral edges, wherein a second edge one of the second plurality of respective edges is unsealed so as to create at least a second pouch, wherein the one of the first and second walls is a shared wall between the first pouch and the second pouch, wherein the first pouch has a first opened end and the second pouch has a second opened end, the method comprising:
- inserting a hand of a user into the second opened end of the second pouch;
- retrieving a first animal waste material using the shared wall and the third wall of the second pouch as a protective barrier;
- inverting the second pouch so as to deposit the first waste material therein;
- inserting a hand of a user into the first opened end of the first pouch;
- retrieving a second animal waste material using the shared wall and the other one of the first and second walls of the first pouch as a protective barrier from the second animal waste material;
- and
- inverting the first pouch so as to deposit the second waste material therein.
Animal waste bag comprising:
- a central pouch and an additional pouch;
- wherein the central pouch has a first opened end and a first closed end;
- wherein the additional pouch has a second opened end and a second closed end;
- wherein the central and additional pouches are configured to retrieve and contain animal waste via their respective and successive inversion;
- wherein the respective first and second opened ends are located central to the animal waste bag;
- wherein the user's hand enters through the first opened end or the second opened end near the midpoint of the animal waste bag;
- and a first wall and a second wall joined at a first plurality of respective peripheries so as to form the central pouch;
- and
- a third wall joined to the second wall at a second plurality of respective peripheries so as to form the additional pouch wherein there is a height differential between the second and third walls.
Animal waste bag comprising:
- a central pouch and an additional pouch;
- wherein the central pouch has a first opened end and a first closed end;
- wherein the additional pouch has a second opened end and a second closed end;
- wherein the central and additional pouches are configured to retrieve and contain animal waste via their respective and successive inversion;
- wherein the respective first and second opened ends are located central to the animal waste bag;
- wherein the user's hand enters through the first opened end or the second opened end near the midpoint of the animal waste bag;
- and a central bag opening, wherein the central bag opening separates into two pouches.
Animal waste bag comprising:
- a central pouch and an additional pouch;
- wherein the central pouch has a first opened end and a first closed end;
- wherein the additional pouch has a second opened end and a second closed end;
- wherein the central and additional pouches are configured to retrieve and contain animal waste via their respective and successive inversion;
- wherein the respective first and second opened ends are located central to the animal waste bag;
- wherein the user's hand enters through the first opened end or the second opened end near the midpoint of the animal waste bag;
- a first wall and a second wall joined at a first plurality of respective peripheries so as to form the central pouch;
- and
- a third wall joined to the second wall at a second plurality of respective peripheries so as to form the additional pouch, wherein the first opened end and the second opened end are located at approximately half the height of the first wall.
