The present invention relates to an adhesive tape dispenser, and more particularly to an adhesive tape dispenser having a guide function.
In general, adhesive tape is stuck on the top of a wooden plank for waterproofing or protection. A tape dispenser is used for applying the adhesive tape. A conventional adhesive tape dispenser has a handle and a retaining frame on the handle. The retaining frame includes a tape seat for installing an adhesive tape roll and a blade. The tape seat is configured to install the adhesive tape roll. The blade is configured to cut the adhesive tape roll, so as to complete the application of the adhesive tape.
The conventional adhesive tape dispenser is operated through the handle, so the adhesive tape applied to the wooden plank may be not centered. In addition to the problem of skewing, part of the wooden plank is exposed. The exposed wooden plank cannot be protected to cause damage. Accordingly, the inventor of the present invention has devoted himself based on his many years of practical experiences to solve these problems.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide an adhesive tape dispenser having a guide function, which can achieve the effect of sticking the adhesive tape centrally.
In order to achieve the aforesaid object, the adhesive tape dispenser of the present invention comprises a handle, a retaining frame, a tape cutting unit, a guide unit, and a tape holding unit. The retaining frame is disposed on the handle. The retaining frame has a pair of vertical plates. The tape cutting unit has a roller and a blade that are located between the vertical plates. The guide unit has a pair of guide plates located outside the respective vertical plates. The guide plates each have a fastener for fastening the guide plates to the respective vertical plates. The tape holding unit has a pressing member. The pressing member is connected to the vertical plates. The pressing member is configured to install an adhesive tape roll.
In the adhesive tape dispenser provided by the present invention, the guide members of the guide plates are able to be in close contact with both sides of wooden planks, so as to achieve the effect of sticking the adhesive tape centrally.
Embodiments of the present invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The handle 10 includes an adjustment frame 11 and a pair of connecting plates 12 extending upwardly from the adjustment frame 10. Each connecting plate 12 has a pivot hole 13. One of the connecting plates 12 has an arc-shaped adjustment slot 14.
The retaining frame 20 has a pair of spaced vertical plates 21. The vertical plates 21 are located at the inner sides of the connecting plates 12, respectively. Each vertical plate 21 has a pivot hole 22. A pivot member 23 is insertedly connected to the pivot hole 13 of the handle 10 and the pivot hole 22 of the vertical plate 21. The pivot member 23 is composed of a screw and a sleeve, so that the retaining frame 20 can be pivoted. An adjustment axle 24 is provided between the vertical plates 21. An adjustment member 25 is provided on one end of the adjustment axle 24. The adjustment member 25 is a knob. The adjustment member 25 has a threaded portion 251 passing through the adjustment slot 14 and screwed to the adjustment axle 24. Thereby, the adjustment member 25 can be moved within the adjustment slot 14 to adjust the angle of the handle 10 in a stepless manner for applying the adhesive tape.
The tape cutting unit 30 has a spindle 31 and a blade holder 32 located between the vertical plates 21. A roller 33 is sleeved on the spindle 31. Either end of the spindle 31 has a screw hole 34. The blade holder 32 is located above the roller 33. The blade holder 32 has an upper holding plate 35, a blade 36 and a lower holding plate 37 that are sequentially arranged in a top-down direction and screwed together by a pair of screws. Two sides of the lower holding plate 37 under the blade fixing frame 32 have a pair of positioning portions 38 extending out of the outer sides of the vertical plates 21, respectively.
The guide unit 40 has a pair of guide plates 41 located outside the vertical plates 21, respectively. The outer peripheral wall of each guide plate 41 has an L-shaped first notch 42 and an L-shaped second notch 43. At least one guide member 44 is provided on the inner side of each guide plate 41. The guide member 44 may be a projection or a roller in any shape. In the embodiment of the present invention, the guide member 44 is a pair of rollers. A fastener 45 is insertedly connected to each guide plate 41. The fastener 45 is a knob. The fastener 45 has a threaded portion 451 passing through the corresponding vertical plate 21 and screwed to the corresponding end of the spindle 31, so that the guide plates 41 are secured to the vertical plates 21, respectively. Each guide plate 41 may be in a rotatable unlocked state or a non-rotatable locked state. The user can position the first notch 42 or the second notch 43 of the guide plate 41 on the positioning portion 38 according to the needs, or position the guide plate 41 at any position, and then fasten the fastener 45 to lock the guide plate 41. In other implementations, the threaded portion 451 of the fastener 45 may be screwed to the corresponding vertical plate 21, which also allow each guide plate 41 to be in a rotatable unlocked state or a non-rotatable locked state.
The tape holding unit 50 has a pressing member 51, a spring 52, and an operating member 53. The pressing member 51 includes a drive rod 511. Both ends of the drive rod 511 are bent in the same direction and extend to form a pivot rod 512 and a pressing rod 513. The pivot rod 512 is pivotally connected to the vertical plates 21. The pressing rod 513 is configured to hold an adhesive tape roll 200. As shown in
