Manually operated stretch wrap dispensing device
The granted patent US12017815B2 describes a manually operated stretch wrap device designed for efficient dispensing of stretch wrap from two rolls. The device features a rigid, cylindrical support member that includes a proximal section for a first stretch wrap roll and a distal section for a second roll. Both sections are engineered to facilitate the rotational dispensing of the stretch wrap. A central section, which can be held with one hand, allows for the simultaneous dispensing of wrap from both ends. The device is adaptable to accommodate stretch wrap rolls ranging in length from 7 cm to 45 cm, and the proximal and distal sections can be removably attached to the center section for convenience.
Additionally, the device incorporates a rotatable handle that is secured around the center section, enabling the proximal and distal sections to rotate freely while the handle remains stationary. This design enhances usability, allowing a user to grip the handle with one hand while dispensing the stretch wrap. The patent also specifies that the handle can be secured to the center section using roller bearings or other bearing mechanisms, further improving the device's functionality and ease of use. Overall, the invention aims to streamline the process of applying stretch wrap, making it more efficient for users.
