ABSTRACT:
A tape dispenser, particularly suited for masking tape or like low-tensile strength adhesive tape, and having a frame with a hub portion that provides a cylindrical surface for rotatably mounting a roll of tape and having a central finger-receiving aperture therein. A support wall extends radially from a first side of the hub portion to hold an axially extending flange spaced from a minor segment of the cylindrical surface, whereby the finger-receiving aperture and the flange provide means for grasping the dispenser and not interfering with the rotation of a roll of tape mounted on the dispenser. A swinging arm has one end mounted to the first side of the hub portion, at a location generally radially opposite the flange for rotation about an axis parallel to the axis of the cylindrical surface, and has an application roller mounted at its other end to also rotate about an axis parallel to the axis of the cylindrical surface. There is means for limiting the range of swinging motion of the swinging arm so that it is rotatable in one direction to a first position in which further rotation is prevented and in which the roller is held spaced from the periphery of a mounted roll of tape, and rotatable in the other direction to bring the roller into rollable contact with the roll periphery. This tape dispenser construction allows a form of tape dispensing unto an article surface in which tape passes from the roll around the roller and unto the article surface as the roller is pressed between the periphery of a rotating roll of tape and the article surface.
