Abstract

The present invention relates to a drywall particulate-catching device that catches dust, particulates, and debris while repairing drywall. The device is primarily comprised of a body having a pouch and a flap with at least one adhesive strip. During use, the device can be adhered to a drywall surface below a working area via the adhesive strip such that pouch of the body catches any dust, particulates, and debris created by the drywall maintenance. The flap can then be attached to the body via a second adhesive strip to seal the contents of the pouch such that it can be discarded.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A drywall particulate-catching device comprising:
 a body comprised of a pouch and a flap;   an adhesive strip positioned on the flap; and   a peelable cover comprised of a pull tab, the peelable cover positioned on the adhesive strip.   
     
     
         2 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 1 , wherein the body is comprised of a flexible material. 
     
     
         3 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 2 , wherein the flexible material is comprised of a paper-based material. 
     
     
         4 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 2 , wherein the flexible material is comprised of a rubber-based material. 
     
     
         5 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 2 , wherein the adhesive strip is comprised of an acrylic-based adhesive. 
     
     
         6 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 5 , wherein the acrylic-based adhesive is further comprised of a water-based adhesive. 
     
     
         7 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 5 , wherein the acrylic-based adhesive is further comprised of a solvent-based adhesive. 
     
     
         8 . A drywall particulate-catching device comprising:
 a body comprised of a pouch and a flap;   a liner;   a first adhesive strip;   a first peelable cover comprised of a first pull tab;   a second adhesive strip; and   a second peelable cover comprised of a second pull tab.   
     
     
         9 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 8 , wherein the first adhesive strip is positioned on a front surface of the flap. 
     
     
         10 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 8 , wherein the second adhesive strip is positioned on a rear surface of the flap. 
     
     
         11 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 8 , wherein the body is further comprised of a rigid material. 
     
     
         12 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 11 , wherein the rigid material is comprised of a plastic. 
     
     
         13 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 1 , wherein the first peelable adhesive cover is positioned on the first adhesive strip. 
     
     
         14 . The drywall particulate-catching device of  claim 8 , wherein the liner is comprised of plastic bag material. 
     
     
         15 . A method of using a drywall particulate-catching device, the method comprising the steps of:
 unfolding a flap of a drywall particulate-catching device from a body of the drywall particulate-catching device;   removing a cover from a first adhesive strip of the drywall particulate-catching device; and   securing the drywall particulate-catching device to a drywall surface using the first adhesive strip.   
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein the drywall particulate-catching device is positioned under an area of the drywall surface that is under repair. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 15  further comprising a step of removing the drywall particulate-catching device from the drywall surface. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 15  further comprising a step of placing a liner in a pouch of the drywall particulate-catching device. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 15  further comprising a step of removing a liner in a pouch of the drywall particulate-catching device. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 15  further comprising a step of using a second adhesive strip to secure to flap to the body.
