Abstract: A device for applying tape from a roll of tape (e.g., masking tape) along a surface to be protected with an edge of the tape extending along a juncture between the surface to be protected and a surface to be treated disposed at about a right angle with respect to the surface to be protected. The device includes a two portion housing around and journaling the tape roll, each portion having a tape contacting part of its inner surface in a first plane, and having in a second plane a guide part of its outer surface adapted to be slid along the surface to be treated. The first and second planes on each of the housing portions can be at a small angle with respect to each other and intersect along an application side of the housing. A pressure application structure is mounted on the housing with an outer edge each end of the pressure application structure at the intersection of the first and second planes for a different adjacent one of the housing portions, and with the generally cylindrically arcuate peripheral surface of the pressure application structure disposed at an angle of no greater than 90 degrees with respect to the second plane and projecting from the housing at the intersections of the first and second planes. Tape from the roll extends around the periphery of the pressure application structure so that the dispenser can be manually positioned with either housing portion against the surface to be treated and moved to apply the tape.

Abstract: A portable dispenser with which lengths of a sheet material may be manually dispensed from a supply roll of the sheet material. The dispenser has a frame including a bridging portion adapted to extend along a portion of the periphery of the roll of sheet material, and end wall portions fixed to the ends of the bridging portion and adapted to extend along the opposite end surfaces of the roll of sheet material on which the roll of sheet material is rotatably journaled. A resiliently flexible cantilevered portion of the frame has a proximal edge fixed to the bridging portion and has a sharp cutting edge along its opposite distal edge. A guard portion of the frame extends between its end wall portions and has an inner surface extending along the side of the cutting edge opposite the roll. The cantilevered portion is normally positioned in a retracted position at which the cutting edge is spaced from the roll of sheet material and is positioned adjacent the inner surface of the guard portion to restrict contact with the cutting edge by a person handling the dispenser such as to withdraw a length of sheet material from the dispenser. The cantilevered portion can be manually flexed by a person grasping the outer surface of the frame to move the cutting edge away from the inner surface of the guard portion to a cutting position at which sheet material being pulled from the roll can be engaged with the cutting edge to transversely sever the sheet material.

Abstract: A laminate for use in decorating a receptor surface (e.g., a window) comprising a piece of decorative sheet material with a layer of aggressive pressure sensitive adhesive on its rear surface and a release liner over that layer of adhesive; and a flexible, temporary support tape comprising a backing and a layer of repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive on a second surface of the backing. A longitudinally extending part of the layer of repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive of the support tape is adhered to a front surface of the decorative strip, and an elongate portion of the support tape projects transversely away from a first edge surface of the decorative sheet material. The repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive on that projecting portion of the support tape can be adhered to a receptor surface with the first release liner on the decorative sheet material laying along that receptor surface, and can be repositioned as needed to precisely position the decorative sheet material in a desired location. Once so positioned, the flexible backing can be bent along a longitudinally extending bend line along the first edge of the decorative sheet material to separate the decorative sheet material from the receptor surface so that the first release liner can be manually removed. The decorative sheet material can then be moved back into contact with the receptor surface so that its layer of aggressive pressure sensitive adhesive adheres the decorative sheet material against the receptor surface in the desired location, after which the temporary support tape can be peeled away.
