Abstract: A bag-like container which comprises first and second flexible wall members. Edge portions of the flexible wall members are attached together, and a spout having an annular body and an outstanding annular flange at an end of the body is attached to one of the wall members. Slots in the annular body parallel to the annular flange and spaced therefrom support a slideably mounted closure plate member. A tongue is mounted on the closure plate member. The tongue moves in openings in opposed sides of the spout body between a closed position in which the tongue closes the spout body and an open position.

Abstract: A stand for supporting a roll paper sheet and a roll of tape having an adhesive coating on one face thereof. The stand includes four upright leg members. Opposed roll supports are carried by opposed ones of the leg members. A tape support is carried by another of the leg members. Tape from the roll of tape on the tape support passes over an edge portion of the roll paper sheet to attach a portion of the tape to the edge portion of the roll paper sheet with the adhesive coating of another portion of the tape being exposed.

Abstract: A device for dispensing plastic material from a bag-like container. A case surrounds the bag-like container. An opening in a wall of the case receives the spout of the bag-like container. A panel of the case is releasable and can be urged along the case while bearing on the bag-like container to cause discharge of contents of the bag-like container through the spout.

Abstract: A machine for causing discharge of plastic material from a bag-like container having flexible walls. The machine includes a first plate-like member pivotally mounted on the framework and a second plate-like member pivotally mounted on the framework. A spring urges the plate-like members together to grip the bag-like container therebetween. A free edge of the second plate-like member is urged toward the first plate-like member to squeeze the bag-like container. A spout receives contents of the bag-like container as the bag-like container is squeezed.
