ROLL PAPER HOLDER AND CUTTER Filed Feb. 19, 1954 Knvenror' Ehmh O.Bu\mon BY) Ww (Tommy United S t2ltS Patent ROLL PAPER HOLDER AND CUTTER Elvah 0. Bulman, Grand Rapids, Mich, assignor to The E. 0. Bulman Manufacturing Cernpany, line, Grand Rapids, Mich., a corporation of Michigan Application February 19, 1954, Serial No. 411,366 1 Claim. (Cl. 164-845) This invention relates to a roll paper holder and cutter. Such a device is for the purpose of holding a roll of paper, such as wrapping paper or waxed paper, from which portions are to be unrolled and torn off.
The principal object of this invention is to facilitate the grasping of the edge of the paper so that it may be unrolled and torn oif over the serrated edge of the cutter.
The invention is hereafter more fully described reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a structure embodying the invention and Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional elevation of the same.
Like reference numbers refer to like parts in both of the figures.
The roll paper holder is a box like structure having a back 1, a front 2, vertical ends 3 and a bottom 4. This box is of proper size to receive a roll of paper 5 and the bottom 4 is preferably inclined downwardly toward the back so that the paper roll will roll rearwardly away from the front. The top 6 of the box is preferably semi circular in shape and is hinged at 7 to the back so that it may be swung upwardly to open the box.
The upper edge of the front 2 has an outwardly inclined extension 8 having a serrated edge 9 which serves as a cutting blade over which the paper may be torn. At the juncture of the blade 8 with the front 2 a downwardly extending groove 10 is provided which is preferably semicircular in cross section and the swinging forward edge of the top 6 has a rolled bead 11 having a rounded cross section similar in shape to the groove 10 but slightly smaller in diameter.
The portion of the paper which is unrolled from the roll 5 is brought outwardly over the blade extension 8 and under the bead 11 on the cover 6 and the weight of the cover depresses the paper into the groove 10 cansing some frictional resistance to movement of the paper but this resistance is easily overcome by manual effort.
The edge of the paper is grasped by the operator and the desired length is pulled outwardly and is torn off by moving it downwardly over the serrated edge 9. The short length 12 of the paper remaining between the cut 01f edge and the groove 10 then springs upwardly away from the blade 8 and stands erect so that it may be easily grasped for the next tearing olf operation.
The weight of the cover 6, pressing the head 11 against the paper, forces it into the groove 10 and holds it with suflicient frictional resistance so that it will not return into the box and the resilience of the paper causes that part 12 of which extending from the groove to stand upright in the direction from which it emerges from the groove.
Thus the groove 10 adjacent the cut off blade 8 with the rolled bead on the edge of the hinged cover pressing the paper into the groove serves the dual purpose of holding the paper from return into the receptacle after a portion has been torn off and also causes the part adjacent the torn edge to stand upright away from contact with any part of the structure so that it may be readily grasped for the next operation.
As an added convenience, the portion of the front 2, from which the blade 8 extends, may be hinged as at 15 so that the blade and grooved portion 10, which normally project outwardly from the case, may be folded into the box as shown in dotted lines, for convenience in shipping. A brace 16 projects upwardly from the front 2 of the box, to which it is fastened, and limits the outward swinging movement of the hinged portion. The stop 16 remains fixed when the hinged portion is swung inward.
It is contemplated that modifications of the specific structure shown and described may be made within the spirit of the invention which is defined by the appended claim which is to be considered comprehensive of all forms coming within their scope.
I claim:
A roll paper holder and cutter comprising, a casing adapted to hold aroll of paper in a manner to be unrolled, said casing having a vertical front and an open top, a cover hinged to said casing remote frornsaid front, a plate attached to said front near its upper edge and extending outwardly therefrom, a longitudinal depression in said plate located outside and forwardly of the plane of said front, the terminal edge of said plate serving as a cutting edge and being spaced outwardly from said depression, a distance equal to approximately twice the diameter of the depression, and an elongated head on the free edge and forwardly of said cover in a position to enter said depression whereby paper drawn outwardly from said roll passes over said plate and is depressed into said depression by said head and when torn ofi? over said cutting edge its free edge will spring upwardly outside of said casing and cover, said plate, including the depression therein and its cutting edge, being hinged to said front and can be swung into the casing and means to limit the outward swinging of the plate.
