- Fig. 10 is a perspective view of a wrapping film assembly according to the invention.
- Fig. 11 is an elevational view of the assembly of Fig. 10?
- Fig. 12 is a diagrammatic view of a pallet containing packages wrapped according to the invention.
- Fig. 13 is a side, partially cross-sectional, view of another wrapping film assembly according to the invention.
- the dispenser 1 comprises a support body in this case in -.the form of a central cylindrical core 2 which is typically of cardboard material. Rolls 3, 4 of plastics stretch film material are in this case wound directly onto the core 2. The rolls 3, 4 of wrapping film are spaced-apart along the core 2 to define a gap 5.
- a hand gripping means indicated generally by the reference numeral 10 is mounted in the gap 5 between the adjacent rolls of wrapping film 3, 4.
- the hand gripping means 10 comprises a sleeve for engaging the gap 5 in the support core 2.
- the sleeve comprises two sleeve parts 11, 12 which engage around the gap 5 in the support core 2.
- the sleeve parts 11, 12 are interconnected in this case by hinges 13 for movement between an open configuration (see Fig. 9) with the sleeve parts 11, 12 partially separated for fitting to the core 2 to a fitted closed configuration (see Fig. 8) with the sleeve parts 11, 12 substantially embracing the support core 2 in the gap 5 as illustrated, for example, in Fig. 1.
- On assembly around the core 2 a small opening 19 is retained between the sleeve parts 11, 12.
- Each of the sleeve parts 11, 12 includes integral flanges 15, 16 at each end which are interposed in use between the hand gripping means 10 and the side edges of the rolls of film 3, 4 to substantially prevent friction burns to the user on dispensing the film from the rolls 3, 4.
- the hinges 13 interlink the flange parts 15, 16 on one side thereof.
- the hand gripping sleeve 10 is integrally moulded from a plastics material and the hinges 13 are integral plastic hinges so that the hand gripping means is relatively inexpensive, light-weight and easy to fit and remove from the core 2 as required.
- Hand operated friction braking means are provided between the hand gripping sleeve 10 and the support core 2.
- the inner diameter of the sleeve 10 is slightly greater than the outer diameter of the core 2 leaving a small opening 19 at the gap 5 so that in use, as will be particularly apparent from Figs. 3 and 4 the sleeve 10 is movable by hand gripping pressure from a relaxed position (see Fig. 3) in which the support core 2 is free to rotate in the sleeve 10 to a braking position in which the opening 19 is substantially closed and the sleeve 10 is engaged with the support core 2 to slow or prevent rotation of the support core 2 in the sleeve 10 and hence substantially brake the dispensing action of plastics film from the rolls 3, 4.
- a user by hand gripping pressure alone, can control the speed of dispensing and the stretching of the plastics film as it is being dispensed, particularly at the changes in direction as the film is wrapped around packages 20, for example, on a pallet 21 as illustrated in Fig. 12.
- the friction burn preventing means is a very important aspect of the invention as it is vital to ensure that the user is protected during dispensing of the film from the rolls 3, 4.
- the flanges 15, 16 assist in guiding the film from the rolls 3, 4 during dispensing.
- the rolls of wrapping film are co-axial with the axis of the core on which they are mounted there may be some situations, for example, for particular wrapping requirements in which the rolls of film are offset.
- the core may be of stepped configuration.
- the invention relates to a wrapping film assembly (see especially Figs. 10 and 11) comprising a support body and rolls of dispensing film with a gap between the rolls for receiving a hand gripping means.
- the invention also relates to a dispenser incorporating the hand gripping means and to the hand gripping means per se (see especially Figs. 5 to 9) .
- FIG. 13 there is illustrated another wrapping film assembly which is similar to the wrapping film assembly described above with reference to Figs. 1 to 12 and like parts are assigned the same reference numerals.
- the wrapping film is in each case wound on an individual core 30 and the cores 30 are mounted, preferably locked, onto a central support body 25. In this way a user may himself assemble the dispensing film rolls onto a central core.
- This arrangement also provides for utilisation of all the plastics film used in the assemblies of the invention.
