Laundry helper bag

Abstract

A clothes-containing laundry bag includes a tear-shaped mesh body having a centrally registered longitudinal axis, an open bottom end and an open top end, an aperture located intermediately between the open bottom end and the open top end, a continuous and unobstructed rectilinear passageway beginning from the open top end and terminating at the open bottom end, a cavity isolated from the continuous and unobstructed rectilinear passageway and being disposed between an inner wall and an outer wall of the tear-shaped mesh body, a single and continuous circular top ring concentrically disposed at the open top end and equidistantly spaced about the centrally registered longitudinal axis. The cavity is in direct communication with the aperture and is configured to radially and equidistantly diverge away from the centrally registered longitudinal axis when the tear-shaped mesh body is rotated along a rotational direction in a washing machine.
