  • Patent number: 4106676
    Abstract: A flat bobbin dispenser conformed in the shape of a spool having two circular edge disks mounted on a central cylinder, each edge disk including on the interior surface thereof radially aligned tapered grooves. These grooves extend towards the center cylinder and terminate thereat in enlarged circular recesses. The disks are aligned on the cylinder in matched radial position, the opposing grooves thus forming a receiving slot for containing rectangular bobbins on which various threads are wound. Each bobbin furthermore includes edge cutouts to accommodate the thickness of the wound thread and one edge of each bobbin is enlarged to form a circular bead conformed for receipt in the opposed circular recesses. In this configuration the spool is supported on a pivotal mount to permit manual selection of the various threads by way of the angular rotation of the spool.
