ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for transporting, cutting and dispensing heavy web sheet material such as cardboard, plastic film and the like, while in roll form. The apparatus includes a manually wheelable frame that can be selectively raised and lowered by a retractable handle at its rearward end to support the frame on a pair of front wheels for transporting the roll to the jobsite. Lowering the apparatus onto fixed rear legs supports the frame in a rest position for cutting and dispensing the sheet material. The frame has upright front and rear standards mounted in asymmetrical opposed relation on one side of the longitudinal center line of the frame. Thus, the roll is readily mounted in a stabilizing manner substantially along the frame center line by means of its roll axle shaft being supported on the inboard side of the standards. A cutting table extends between the upper ends of the standards, pivotally supporting a retainer brake for gravitational biased movement into edge engagement with the table bearing surface with the interposed sheet material retained thereon. A pivotal cutting blade, co-extensive with the retainer brake, is resiliently biased in a snap-action overcenter manner to retain the blade in either an overcenter raised dispensing position, to allow ready controlled withdrawal of material from the roll, or to an overcenter lowered cutting position with the cutting blade edge contacting the sheet material with the retainer brake holding the sheet firmly while being torn or cut with a knife, using the cutting blade edge as a guide. If used in this manner the cutting table would be provided with a wood board, a composition board, or similar surface.
