ABSTRACT:
A tape roll hold-down device for retaining a roll of tape upon a mounting post includes a transversely extending support surface for engaging and supporting the underside of a hub of a roll of tape. The support post extends upwardly through the plane of the support surface and carries a pivotable toggle mounted upon a pivot pin extending transversely of the post. The toggle includes a pair of wedge portions whereby the toggle can be first pivoted transversely of the axis of the support post and then thrust in a wedging manner between the pivot pin and the adjacent surface of the tape roll hub. In releasing the toggle in one embodiment, it needs merely to be thrust beyond the edge of the opening in the hub so that lifting the hub will pivot the distal end of the toggle upwardly and the pivoting end downwardly into the opening of the hub as the hub is lifted. Another embodiment takes advantage of upwardly protruding surface portions on the side face of the hub for engaging and upwardly camming the toggle member so as to move the pivoted end of the toggle member into the hole in the hub.
