Description
TITLE - ALL-IN-ONE HAND HELD WRAP MATERIAL
DISPENSING AND STORAGE APPARATUS
DESCRIPTION
A new and useful hand-held apparatus for storing, dispensing and cutting wrap material in selected lengths that may be comprised of wrap such as gift wrap paper, foil, plastic, kraft paper, construction paper, packaging paper, but are not limited to and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
The distinguishable feature; a novel characteristic ofthe apparatus is that it could be used for storing wrap material and for storing wrapping accessories within the apparatus, such as a plastic cutting knife, tape, bows, ribbons, gift tags, writing device, but are not limited to and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Another distinguishable characteristic is that the apparatus is cylindrical tubing with a notched-out groove, a cut-out portion and a cut off portion removed.
The notched-out groove provides for a cutting edge to be used as a guide with the application of the cutting knife for cutting the wrap material straight. The cut-out portion allows for loading the wrap material into the centre of the apparatus and same cut-out portion allows for dispensing of the desired., selected length of wrap. A portion of the cylindrical tubing is cut off the entire length of the apparatus to make a flat bottom surface which provides stability while cutting the desired length of wrap material. No features protrude from the apparatus itself other than the wrap material when in use and the two end caps. The apparatus consists of a cylindrical tube with a partition separating the wrap material and the wrapping accessories.
The apparatus also includes two removable end caps (one on each end of the tube) to hold in the wrap material during use and storage and also to secure the accessories when the apparatus is not in use. A spacer is provided which could be inserted into the end of the apparatus in which the roll of wrap is inserted to accommodate for shorter lengths of the wrap material, enabling the roll to remain in a proper position for dispensing the wrap material straight.
The drawings that are provided are for specific examples, but are not limited to and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The drawings are referred to as Figures referred to as {Fig. 1,2,3,4,5,6 ,7,8,9 and 101, respectively, with Reference points referred to as (1) through (104).
SPECIFICATTIONS
The apparatus {Fig. If for dispensing and storing wrap material and accessories comprises (1) a rigid tubular material of any hard material such as metal, plastic, rubber, wood, paper and can take any shape such as rectangular, square, triangular, circular, spherical.
{Fig. I i is a front view of the apparatus which could be (2) 37" in length.
The thickness (3) could be 3/16". The inside diameter (4) of the apparatus could be 2". The notched-out groove (7) runs the full length of the apparatus and could be 3/ of the thickness of (3). The cut off portion (6) runs the full length of the apparatus and could be 3/4 of the thickness of (3). The inside partition (5) could be 1/8" thick and the distance (9) from the end (3) to the partition (5) could be 5 1/8". The distance (10) from (5) to (3a) could be 30 1/4"
{Fig. 2) is a back view of the apparatus. The cut-out portion (8) could be 3/16" wide and is the same length as (10). The cut-out portion (8) could be 1 3/4" (13) from the centre of the circumference of the tube. The notched-out groove (7) could be (12) 1 " from the center on the circumference of the tube.
