Abstract: A sheet product dispenser for dispensing a roll of sheet product mounted thereto includes a housing portion and a load inducement portion. The housing portion defines a space operative to receive the roll of sheet product for rotation about an axis to dispense the sheet product. The load inducement portion is operative to induce a frictional force between the roll of sheet product and the load inducement portion during rotation of the roll of sheet product. The load inducement portion includes a guide member, and a load member slidably engaged with the guide member and operative to contact and apply a load to an outer surface of the roll of sheet product.

Abstract: A tape dispenser includes a first arm, a second arm, a holder, a roller, a retaining device, a blade, spring(s) and one or more guides. The tape dispenser is positioned on a tape roll by positioning the holder on the inside of the tape roll and positioning the roller and retaining device on the outside of the tape roll. Tape is able to be pulled through the tape dispenser and then cut using the blade. After the tape is cut, the tape on the roll remains on the retaining device for easy access. The tape dispenser is also removable for use with many tape rolls.

Abstract: A finishing apparatus for ductwork having a duct body with at least one open end. The finishing apparatus includes an operation platform for selectively supporting the ductwork and a first wrapping mechanism integrated with the operation platform, the first wrapping mechanism including a first dispenser for dispensing a first film. The finishing apparatus further includes a first cutting mechanism integrated with the first wrapping mechanism. In operation, the first wrapping mechanism selectively dispenses the first film adjacent to and against the open end of the ductwork as the ductwork is moved a predetermined distance down the operation platform. The first cutting mechanism selectively cutting the first film after the ductwork has moved the predetermined distance down the operation platform.

Abstract: A glue tape cutter includes a cutting table, a press plate, a holding blade, a cutting base, a knife blade and a shaft. The curved substrate is disposed at the bottom of the cutting table and the holding blade is fixed to the cutting table above the curved substrate. The cutting base is rotationally attached to the cutting table by way of the shaft being attached to the lateral covers of the cutting table. The knife blade is attached to the upper part of the cutting base and the holding blades are fixed to the cutting table above the press plate. Once the cutting base rotates, the glue tape can produce an adhered reversed fold part for the user easily tearing up the glue tape adhered to the paper box.

Abstract: An apparatus to cleave an optical fiber includes a base plate, a jig slidably provided on the base plate and holding the optical fiber, a stripper provided near the jig, and including a hot plate heating a sheath of the optical fiber, a sheath cutter cleaving the sheath of the optical fiber to be stripped, a cleaning part cleaning the optical fiber after the sheath of the optical fiber is stripped according as the jig slides, and a cleaver provided on the base plate and cleaving the optical fiber whose sheath is stripped by the stripper. With this configuration, an apparatus is provided to cleave an optical fiber, in which stripping and cleaning processes are simultaneously performed in a stripper, so that the whole process of cleaving the optical fiber is decreased, and the structure of the apparatus is simplified without the conventional cleaning part.

Abstract: A sandpaper dispenser (100) is provided. The sandpaper dispenser includes a frame (102) adapted to be coupled to a sanding device (106) and a sandpaper dispensing assembly 144 coupled to the frame. A sanding pad (105 or 110) is coupled to the frame. The sandpaper dispensing assembly is adapted to selectively dispense a length (108) of sandpaper to extend over the sanding pad.

Abstract: A dispenser comprises a frame that supports a roll of adhesive tape, a handle, a flexible spatula for applying the cut end of the tape, and a cutting blade. The flexible spatula forms a right-angled member having a main arm and another arm which supports the cutting blade. The right-angled member is mounted so as to be rotatable between a rest position, in which the cutting blade is pressed by a spring against a protective member, and a working position, in which the cutting blade is lifted from the protective member so that serrations thereon intersect the path of the adhesive tape. This protective member has a face, on which the blade rests, and which ends in a projecting lip, forming a frontal protection for the serrations on the blade.

Abstract: The tape cutting device of an adhesive-tape holder includes a press member provided at the front upper side of the handle of an adhesive-tape holder. The press member can be pressed to push a blade to move forward and cut off an adhesive tape precisely. After the press member is actuated to move to a preset location to let the blade carry out cutting an adhesive tape, it will recover its original position by the resiliency of a spring, able to cut off an adhesive tape precisely by a pressing force of a user's fingers, conforming to ergonomics and convenient in handling.

Abstract: A tape cutter for holding a roll of adhesive tape or the like and cutting the tape pulled out of the roll. After cutting, the tape end is in condition for easy pick-up at the next use without adhering to the cutter or the tape roll. When pulling the tape out of the tape cutter, the tape guide roller is pressed down by the tape so that the cutter holder carrying the tape guide roller will be pivoted to put the cutter into its operative position. After cutting, the cutter support and thus the cutter will get back to their inoperative retracted position.
