Abstract: A tape dispenser having a frame, a cutter blade and at least one pair of projections disposed on the opposed interior surfaces of the side walls is disclosed. The distance between the projections is less than the distance between the interior surfaces of the side walls and is also less than the width of the tape held in the dispenser. The tape dispenser may also include a pair of tabs either associated with the projections or positioned between the projections and the tape mount. The dispenser is adapted to hold a roll of adhesive tape therein and because of the decreased distance between the projections, the tape assumes a convex shape when viewed from the front end of the dispenser. The shape of the tape and position of the tabs and projections causes the tape to be biased into contact with the interior of the front end of the dispenser. This helps to keep the free end of the tape out of contact with the roll in the dispenser.

Abstract: A series of roll mounted bags and dispensers are described. The bags may be folded along at least one axis and rolled. The compact roll of bags is placed in various dispensers. As the upper portion of the first bag is pulled from the roll, the roll will rotate, presenting the succeeding bag for dispensing after the first bag is removed. Variations of the dispenser include one with a bag opening means with a mounting member and bag opening element causing the bags to open as they are pulled from the dispenser. The dispenser includes mechanisms for supporting the bag roll and constraining its movement along its horizontal axis. Another variation of the dispenser has a perforation parting means that facilitates separation of one bag from a subsequent bag. The dispenser may be removably attached to a dispenser support that attaches to a surface.

Abstract: A tape dispenser to allow multiple rolls of tape, some which are different widths, to be dispensed from a single dispenser without becoming entangled and sticking to the adjacent tape is disclosed. The dispenser contains two sets of blades spaced apart and attached to the dispenser housing. A guide bar is used adjacent to the lower blade to ensure the tape will approach the blade at an angle that will provide a clean cut. The tapes are placed on a tape core which is slid in an internal groove in the sides of the tape housing. The tapes are then fed to the cutting blades in an alternate manner which minimizes the risk of entanglement when being used.

Abstract: A free end portion of sheet wrapping material is grasped and pulled from a dispenser transversely past and spaced from a cutting element mounted on a housing. The cutting element is displaced in response to the movement of the withdrawn material by generating a displacement force, latching the cutting element against displacement in a normally guarded position in which the cutting element is inoperative for cutting, and thereupon unleashing the displacement force in response to a further movement of the material to drivingly displace the cutting element from the guarded position to a cutting position in which the cutting element is in a position to sequentially pierce and cut the sheet material that is subsequently moved toward the same. Methods of dispensing the sheet material and of wrapping items also are disclosed.

Abstract: An assembly for dispensing tickets in strip form from a roll thereof registers a cutting blade with respect to drive openings in the strip of tickets, the drive openings occuring at the opposite ends of each ticket.

Abstract: A rolled material guide and cutter attachable to a pre-existing rolled material holder is provided. The rolled material guide and cutter comprises a pair of attachment members that attach to the brackets of the pre-existing roll holder, an interconnecting member between the pair of attachment members and a cover member pivotally connected to the attachment members.

Abstract: In an adhesive tape holder means a sheathing plate is mounted to one end of the means in vertically movable relation with respect to a cutting blade rigidly fixed adjacent to said end; the sheathing plate has a sliding element engaged with a cam mounted adjacent to said plate and having one end projected outwardly from one side of the means by a spring. When a pushing force is applied to said end, the cam is forced to move across the axis of the means to move down the sheathing plate, causing the blade to come out of the plate. When the force is released, the cam returns to its original position and simultaneously the sheathing plate moves up to sheathe the blade.

Abstract: A novel tape dispenser especially useful in dispensing pressure-sensitive adhesive tape of the type having a plurality of longitudinally spaced zones which appreciably increase the force required to strip the tape from the roll compared to areas intermediate these zones. Features of the invention include: an adjustable blade on the dispenser frame, in one embodiment, which may set at desired distances from the roll to accommodate various dimensional characteristics of different tapes; a limiting structure for preventing the roll of tape from being pulled bodily out of the dispenser; and a unique arrangement for mounting and maintaining the tape such that the line of departure of tape from the roll is maintained in fixed position on the dispenser frame.In one embodiment the support means for the tape roll defines a path inclining downwardly toward a lip on the frame across which tape is drawn as it is stripped from the roll.
