The embodiment of the invention disclosed herein is directed to a dispensing carton for attachable package handles which are formed on a wound spool and carried on a hub to be positioned in the carton. The detachable handles are used for application to boxes and bags for carrying articles of purchase. The dispensing carton is provided with a double-thickness reinforcement immediately adjacent the outlet of the carton so that a pull strip can be pulled over the reinforcement and separate the attachable handle. Therefore, a store clerk can easily remove an attachable handle from the carton and apply it to the package. The pull strip passes through a slot formed in the top wall of the carton and is guided through a channel so that it is at all times in a position ready to be taken up by the clerk.
The container for packaging wire roll, comprising a cover and core made of a single elongate cut-out piece of dimensionally stable flat material which serves both to support the roll and guide the wire as it is rolled off the shaft of a winch.
A pressure sensitive adhesive tape, such as a white typing correction tape, is wound up with backing tape or a liner tape wound between successive turns of the tape. The backing tape is cut into short lengths, and the correction tape is bent sharply back upon itself over a "peeling" member as it is dispensed, to separate the short lengths of the backing or liner tape and leave them behind in the carton. The space within the standard size dispenser package is adequate to hold the waste pieces of backing tape as the correction tape roll is used up. A short cutting blade may be provided to cut off desired lengths of the correction tape.
A package for storing and feeding electronic components having parallel leads mounted equidistantly by the leads on tape is provided. The tape is wound in a spiral and packaged in the box prepared from a box blank. The box has a removable side face which is removed from the box for forming an opening through which the tape and the electronic components mounted thereon can be fed either manually or automatically without opening the package itself. The removable side face has an elongated retainer flap for serving to hold the tape and the electronic components mounted thereon firmly in position within the box.
A portable holder and dispenser for adhesive or pressure sensitive tape comprising a receptacle for containing a roll of tape, an opening being provided in the top panel of the receptacle for dispensing the tape, and a tape holder adapted for insertion into the bottom portion of the receptacle, the top panel being provided with serrations for engaging the adhesive surface of the tape.
A label dispenser for dispensing labels stored on a backing tape includes a main housing and a top cover that are connected at one end by a first hinge and an access door connected to the main housing by a second hinge. The top cover, main housing and access door form an enclosure having a storage compartment, a dispensing slot, a tape discharge slot and a writing window. A roll of labels stored on a backing tape is contained within the compartment and is threaded through the window and the tape discharge slot so that the labels are dispensed through the dispensing slot when the backing tape is pulled through the tape discharge slot. Information can be written on the labels as they pass through the writing window. Preferably, the top cover, the main housing and the access door are all formed as a single, unitary structure in a single injection molding operation.
