Abstract: A wound film dispenser with exterior retainer and method of assembling same are disclosed. The wound film dispenser includes a base to which a lid is hingedly attached via a fold. The interior end walls of the base include false walls which are biased into the base. The false walls include aperture through which the ends of the roll extend to at least partially receive the ends of the roll of wound film material. In so doing, the retainers are provided exterior to the roll of film. The false walls may be biased into the base using braces pushing the top edge of the false wall away from the end walls.

Abstract: A dispenser for rolls of wound film is disclosed, as well as a method of manufacturing such a dispenser. The dispenser includes a trunk to which a lid is hingedly attached. First and second end walls of the trunk include retainers adapted to penetrate into hollow ends of a roll of wound film disposed within the trunk. The first and second retainers include multiple flaps which are locked into a penetrating position. The multiple flaps may include first and second parallel wing flaps which are pushed inwardly by a locking flap. The combined flaps may be locked into position by frictional engagement of the locking flap in notches provided in the first and second wing flaps. By penetrating the first and second ends of the roll, the roll is reliably held within the trunk, and less susceptible to being inadvertently pulled from the carton during dispensing of the film.

Abstract: A cooling device for use with beach chairs and the like. The cooling device includes a pouch mounted to a rear side of the backrest. The pouch has a bottom and side edge defining one or more pockets for receiving ice cubes through an opening at the top. The pouch is provided with a drain to remove excess liquid from the interior of the pouch after the ice has melted. The pouch may be permanently mounted to the backrest or may be removably secured to the backrest.

Abstract: A carton for retaining, suspending, and dispensing rolls of wound web material and a method of manufacturing same are disclosed. The carton is a trunk to which a lid is hinged to allow the lid to be opened and closed and thereby allow access to the roll of wound web material. Retainers are provided at first and second ends to positively hold the roll within the carton for dispersal of the film. The retainers may also suspend the roll off of the bottom wall of the carton to avoid adhesion of the multiple layers of wound web of material, particularly materials employing pressure sensitive adhesives. A carton includes guide surfaces to facilitate automated assembly of the carton.
