The present disclosure relates to an apparatus (100) or a reusable dispenser adaptable for mounting coreless stretch film (106) comprising a hollow cylindrical body (101) with at least one elongated slit (102) along the length of the cylindrical body wherein, the body has a right portion (107a) and a left portion (107b), and an outer wall (104) in which at least one of the left or right portion (107a, 107b) is compressed for slotting into an opening of the film roll (106), such that the outer wall (104) mounts firmly onto inner wall (105) of the opening for grasping the surface of inner sheet of the film roll during dispensing.

A house wrap dispenser apparatus for use by a single user to use with a roll of house wrap in installation of house wrap on an exterior wall(s) of a stable structure. The house wrap dispenser apparatus includes a house wrap dispenser having a lower house wrap bracket operational with an upper house wrap bracket, a bag, removable fasteners, and a driver. In another embodiment, a water-resistive barrier wrap dispenser apparatus includes a water-resistive barrier wrap dispenser, a multiplicity of threaded dowels, removable fasteners, a bag, and a driver. In an embodiment, a house wrap dispenser apparatus kit, includes a house wrap dispenser apparatus carrying case to contain the house wrap dispenser apparatus. In an embodiment, a water-resistive barrier wrap dispenser apparatus kit includes a water-resistive barrier wrap dispenser apparatus carrying case to contain the water-resistive barrier wrap dispenser apparatus.

A dispenser assembly including a remaining length indicator, comprising a sheet material including an inner end, an outer end, an initial edge, a terminal edge, and an indicator line arranged on the sheet material, and a plurality of markings operatively arranged to engage the indicator line to indicate a length of the sheet material remaining.

Systems, methods and apparatus for dispensing of paper products. A dispenser comprising a housing comprising a product holding area defined by a front, back and two sides, and a dispenser throat defining an opening through the housing; a motor coupled to the rolled product and configured to rotate the rolled product in first and second directions; and a feed mechanism having a first side opening and a second side opening different from the first side opening, wherein both the first side and second side openings are different from that dispenser throat, and wherein the first side opening is configured to accept the tail when the rolled product has a first orientation and is rotated in the first direction and the second side opening is configured to accept the tail when the rolled product has a second orientation and is rotated in the second direction.

A disposable face mask includes an upper portion of the face mask and a lower portion of the face mask, the upper portion and lower portion of the face masks each adjoin monolithically formed therewith face mask straps defined by perforations in a web of material used to form the face mask and straps, wherein the perforations allow the straps to be partially separated and utilized for securing said face mask to a wearer's face. The disposable face mask may be made by perforating patterns into a web of materials to define the face mask straps and face mask body that are formed monolithically from the web of materials. The face masks may be wound on a roll for dispensing by tearing off from the roll and then separating the straps at the perforations. Alternatively, the face mask borders may be cut-through to allow dispensing of the face masks individually from bulk packaging, where the face mask is removed from the package and the straps are separated at the perforations to allow the face mask to be secured to the wearer's face by tying the straps behind the wearer's head.

A kit for dispensing disposable stethoscope covers and other instrument covers is provided. The kit may include a cartridge and a dispenser for automatic touch-free dispensing of disposable stethoscope covers. The kit further includes a first spool having a roll of backing member with disposable stethoscope covers disposed thereon and a second spool for receiving the spent backing member after a disposable stethoscope cover has been removed, self-contained within the cartridge. The cartridge is inserted within the dispenser so that a user may insert a stethoscope head through a window of the dispenser to attach to a disposable stethoscope cover. Alternatively, the cartridge or cassette may be comprised of disposable instrument covers so that a user may insert the instrument near or through the window of the dispenser for application of the instrument cover directly to the instrument. The kit may further include a proximity sensor for detecting a user.

A dispenser, apparatus, system and method for automatically dispensing portable or sterile items from a continuous length of packages of items ideally packaged as a stack, including a support shaped and configured to support the stack, a feed mechanism arranged in flow communication relative to the support for feeding the stack towards a dispensing point, a separation means extending from the feed mechanism, shaped and configured for separating an item from the stack at the dispensing point, an electric motor configured to drive the feed mechanism; and a sensor shaped and configured to detect a dispensing parameter, wherein in use, the dispenser is activated by a user providing the dispensing parameter to the sensor thereby activating the feed mechanism to automatically feed the stack towards the dispensing point such that the separation means separates the item from stack thereby allowing for the item to be dispensed.

A calibration determination device includes: a free roll that conveys the bonding member; a load detection device that detects a load applied to a bearing of the free roll; a tension adjustment device that winds the bonding member to increase a tension applied to the bonding member and unwinds the bonding member to reduce the tension applied to the bonding member so as to adjust the tension applied to the bonding member; and a calibration determination unit that determines whether calibration of the load detection device is necessary. The tension adjustment device unwinds the bonding member to cause the bonding member not to be subjected to the tension, and the calibration determination unit determines whether the calibration of the load detection device is necessary based on the load detected by the load detection device with the bonding member not being subjected to the tension.

Dispenser with bearings for dispensing a roll of tension activated expandable sheet material, as well as methods for using the same.

Described herein is a material roll feeder that may be used for automatically feeding material into a machine, such as an electronic cutting machine. The roll feeder includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion may be configured to rotatably support a roll of material and the second portion may define a channel configured to receive and guide material from the roll of material therethrough. The second portion of the roll feeder may comprise guide geometry configured to operably enable a separated section of material that has been separated from the roll of material to move over a top surface of the roll of material.
