Abstract:
A combined scissors and tape dispenser configured as a unitary construction. The combined scissors and tape dispenser apparatus includes a pair of blades. A first blade includes a first elongated cutting member integrated with a first looped handle portion. A second blade is pivotally connected to the first blade. The second blade includes a second elongated cutting member integrated with a second looped handle portion. A dispenser reel including a cutting implement is integrated as part of at least one of the first looped handle portion and the second looped handle portion. The dispenser reel includes a through-hole adapted to be gripped by at least one of the user's fingers.

Abstract:
A device and a method are disclosed for manually perforating a sheet of aluminum foil. The device includes a first member having a first surface with a plurality of apertures formed therein and a first guide member extending upwardly above the first surface. The device also includes a second member having a lower surface with a plurality of projections extending downwardly therefrom. Each of the projections can be simultaneously inserted into one of the plurality of apertures. A second guide member is formed on the second member and cooperates with the first guide member to permit the second member to move vertically relative to the first member. A sheet of aluminum foil can be placed between the first and second members, when they are spaced apart from one another, and the sheet of aluminum foil can be perforated by pressing the second member against the first member.
Abstract:
A leader tape housing is provided with a compartment for mounting a reel with a leader tape thereon. A guide is provided for changing the path of the tape and the plane of the tape. A feeder device is provided in the housing which includes a first roller and a second roller forming a nip therebetween, the second roller being provided with a manually operable handle for driving it. The second roller includes a pair of diametrically opposed arc segments and a pair of diametrically opposed flats, such that the arc segments, when opposite the first wheel, form a nip with the wheels in contact therewith, and when the flats are opposite the first wheel, a gap is formed at the nip, allowing the tape to be pulled through without restraint. A cutting device is mounted on the cutting path on the outside of the housing for moving a knife against a die across the path of the tape, and means are provided for adjusting the angular plane of the knife. An adhesive tape dispenser is also mounted on the housing. The adhesive tape dispenser includes a dispensing wheel having circumferential ribs over which the adhesive surface of the tape passes, and a driving wheel over the dispensing wheel forming a nip therewith and engaging the top surface of the adhesive tape for feeding the adhesive tape through a slot in the housing.
