Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a web dispensing cartridge and more particularly to a web dispensing cartridge designed to fit into a structure designed to support a boxlike rectangular dispenser.
  • the web dispensing cartridge of thi invention overcomes the deficiencies of prior art dispensing cartridges.
  • the presently disclosed dispensing cartridge has the advantages of ease of manufacture and relatvely low cost of manufacture.
  • This dispensing cartridge is both simple to install and easy to operate. It is formed of two symmetrical portions which form the casing for a roll of web material and from which the web material is dispensed. Each symmetrical portion of the casing is formed with a foot member and a flange which facilitate the positioning of the cartridge in a structure designed to support a rectangular box dispenser. Each symmetrical portion has a bearing socket to rotatably support the core of a roll of web material to be dispensed.
  • the symmetrical portions may be connected by various mean along the flanges and an opening is provided along one edge of the flanges for dispensing the Web material.
  • This dispensing cartridge is a light tight closure for dispensing photographic paper.
  • the opening in the one edge of the flange may be made light tight by various means.
  • the cartridge may be used for dispensing any desired web material.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a cartridge dispenser which is designed to readily fit into a structure which had been designed for a rectangular box dispenser.
  • a further object of this invention is the provision of a cartridge dispenser which is inexpensive to manufacture and is readily constructed.
  • Still another object of this invention is the provision of a cartridge dispenser which is easily placed in operative position and therefore ready for immediate use.
  • a still further object of this invention is the provision of a cartridge dispenser which is durable and rugged for its intended use.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the symmetrical portions of the dispenser in an open position
  • FIG. 3 is a section view of the dispenser of this invention placed in a machine frame structure in operative position.
  • a cartridge dispenser indicated generally by 10 comprises a top portion 12 and a bottom portion 14.
  • the top portion 12 and the bottom portion 14 are corturally identical half sections and each comprises one half of the cartridge dispenser 10.
  • the portions 12 and 14 are identical in size and shape.
  • the cartridge dispenser is symmetrical about the plane of connection of the top portion 12 and the bottom portion 14.
  • the orientation of the dispensing cartridge set forth in FIGURE 1 will be utilized in describing the feature of said cartridge. This orientation will be used for reference purposes only and it is to be expressly understood that in use the cartridge may be oriented in any position.
  • top portion 12 and the bottom portion 14 For convenience and ease of manufacture, it is preferable that the same method be used to fabricate the top portion 12 and the bottom portion 14.
  • methods which are siiitable for fabricating the top and bottom portions. Examples of such methods are thermoforming of a sheet, such as vacuum-forming a heated plastic sheet; stamping and forming from any formable material, such as metal, paper, or plastic; injection-molding a thermoplastic or thermosetting material; and blow molding. Other methods of fabrication may be used without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention.
  • the top portion 12 comprises a semicylindrical section 17 bounded by a flange 18.
  • the section 17 has semicircular integrally formed end walls 22 and 24.
  • the flange 18 comprises outwardly extending bottom faces 32, 34, 36, and 38.
  • the faces 32 and 34 extend along the semicircular end walls 22 and 24, respectively, and said faces are slightly longer than the diameter of said semicircular end walls.
  • the faces 36 and 38 extend along the periphery of said semicylindrical section 17.
  • a foot 29 At the top of the semicylindric section 17 of portion 12 is a foot 29, which foot extends substantially along the axial length of portion 12.
  • the foot 20 is spaced inwardly from the se7micircular ends 22 and 24 of the semicylindrical section 1 Extending outwardly from the semicircular ends 22 and 24 are integrally formed bearing sockets 26 and 28 which are utilized to rotatably support the core of a roll of web material therein.
  • the bearing sockets have recessed portions 27 and 29 for rotatably supporting the core of a roll of material.
  • Web material 44 is wound on a core 45 and the core is constructed to fit into the bearing sockets 26 and 28 so that the web material may be readily dispensed from the dispensing cartridge 10.
  • the top portion 12 is sealed to the bottom portion 14 along the flanges 18 and 18.
  • the seal is made only along the bottom faces 32, 32, 34, 34, 36 and 36 of the flanges 18 and 18'.
  • the bottom faces 38 and 38 are left unsealed so that the web material is free to be pulled out from an opening 30 formed between the faces 38 and 38' of the top portion 12 and the bottom portion 14.
  • the opening between these faces may be covered with an opaque adhesive tape if the web contained is light sensitive and which tape can be removed to expose the free end of the web when the dispenser is to be used.
  • the top portion 12 may be connected to the bottom portion 14 by various means.
  • the bottom faces 32, 34, and 36 of the portion 12 may be connected to the edges 32, 34, and 36 of the portion 14 by means of stapling, adhesives, ultrasonic seal, heat seal, adhesive binding tape, snaps, external clips or any other suitable manner.
  • the enumerated connecting means are illustrative only and other means may be utilized without departing from the scope of the invention.
  • the opening 30 between the face 38 of top portion 12 and face 38 of the bottom portion 14 must be light tight when light sensitive web rolled products are to be dispensed from the dispensing cartridge 10.
  • the opening 30 may be maintained light tight by attaching velvet or other light lock material to either one or both the bottom faces 38 and 33'.
  • Other suitable methods for locking out light from the roll of web product 44 include a series of intricately formed passages formed or attached to the dispensing mouth 30 of the cartridge 10, or having the faces 38 and 38' in firm contact with each side of the web material to prevent the passage of light.
  • the enumerated light preventative means are illustrative only and other acceptable means may be used without departing from the scope of the invention.
  • the dispensing cartridge as shown in FIG. 3 is in operative position within a structure in which it is supported for dispensing the web materfil contained therein.
  • Members 40 and 42 are stationary machine frame structure which are used to support the dispensing cartridge 10. It is seen that the dispensing cartridge 10 is readily positioned in the frame structure 40 and 42 by means of the flanges l8 and 18 and the foot member The flanges 18 and 18' and the foot member 20' cooperate with the frame structure and 42, respectively, so that the dispensing cartridge 10 is positioned in the frame in the same manner a boxlike rectangular dispenser would be positioned.
  • Web material product 44 is dispensed from the opening 30 and travels along a path defined by a series of rollers 46, 48 and 50.
  • the dispensing cartridge may be placed in a machine frame structure designed for a rectangular box dispenser and, due to the cooperation of the foot and flange of the dispensing cartridge with the structural framework of the machine, no further positioning structure is required.
  • the cartridge is simple to construct and is durable and rugged for its intended purpose.
