Abstract: An adhesive tape dispenser and applicator which folds one or both edges of tape being applied over upon themselves. The dispenser includes an edge folding guide having a planar surface, two inwardly converging edges and tape guides cooperating to fold the edges of the tape. A compression roller is provided to press the edges together. A method of threading tape onto an edge folding tape dispenser is also described.

Abstract: A tape dispenser adapted to dispense lengths of adhesive tape from a roll of adhesive tape wound upon a cylindrical tape core having a first sidewall, a second sidewall generally parallel to the first sidewall, a hub structure and a tape retaining tab extending inwardly from at least one of the first and second sidewalls. A hinged tongue is supported between the sidewall front portions, the tongue includes a front edge approaching the tape retaining tab. An unwound portion of the tape passes between the retaining tab and the tongue, and the tongue is movable between a first position for holding the unwound portion of the tape against the tape retaining tab and a second position allowing the unwound portion of the tape to separate from the retaining tab.

Abstract: A one-piece seal for use on the bottoms of doors or windows of uniform cross-section has a planar base and upwardly extending members on each side of the base with engagement members at the top of the upwardly extending members. The seal also has downwardly extending fins and semicircular walls to engage a threshold. The seal is held upon a door by action of the flexible engagement members being pressed against the sides of the doors by the upstanding members.

Abstract: An access port for a shrink film barrier that can be installed after installation of the shrink film barrier without removal of the shrink film barrier, and permits selective access to a window or door covered by the barrier.

Abstract: A draft blocker using flexible linear elements contained in an envelope is easily installed upon a door or window. The draft blocker comprises linear elements contained in cavities adapted to ride against the inside and outside of the door thereby sealing the gap between a door and preventing drafts. The draft blocker uses one or more envelope elements allowing insertion of the linear elements at a position other than the ends and has end straps which engage the edges of the door bottom holding the draft blocker in place.

Abstract: A retail store shelving structure adapted to be positioned between a first aisle and a second aisle comprises vertical support elements. At least one horizontal shelf is supported on the vertical support elements. A first retail product display volume is located between the vertical support elements for displaying a first retail product. The first retail product display volume is accessible from the first aisle and the second aisle. A second retail product display volume is located between the vertical support elements for displaying a second retail product. The second retail product display volume is accessible from only one of the first aisle and the second aisle.
