Abstract: A tape dispenser has a housing in which a roll of adhesive tape is rotatably supported, a cutter provided on the front of the housing for cutting the adhesive tape to desired lengths, an adhering member for adhering the tape dispenser to a supporting surface, and both a support rod rotatably mounted to the housing, and a ring-shaped support disposed at an end of the support rod and rotatably supported by the adhering member. Thus, with the adhering member adhering the tape dispenser to a supporting surface, the housing of the tape dispenser can be rotated about the support rod so as to be movable between vertical and horizontal orientations. Also, the housing can be rotated 360.degree. about the adhering member such that the cutter of the tape dispenser can be moved to a desired angular position while the tape dispenser remains adhered to the supporting surface.
