A tape dispenser has a cutter or cutting blade that has at least two rows of teeth opposite each other relative to the cutter or cutting blade. The blade is to be installed on the tape dispenser in any of at least two orientations. By installing the blade in any of at least two orientations, at least one row of teeth will always project from the dispensing end to cut adhesive tape as it is unwound from a roll after being dispensed. This type of blade permits an easier manufacturing ability by reducing or eliminating the need to ensure proper alignment of the teeth to project outwardly from the tape dispenser housing.

A stamping tool may include a base and a cover. The cover is removably affixed to the base through a hinging assembly. The base can include a first base hinge and a second base hinge substantially perpendicular to the first base hinge. The base hinges can include hinge sections. The hinge sections can include a first wall and a second wall that can be biased to define a cavity that is accessible through a channel between the first wall and the second wall. Hinge sections can be separated by one or more receptacles. The cover can include one or more hinge bars corresponding to the hinge sections on the base. The hinge bars can have an unequal aspect ratio allowing for easy insertion and removal of the cover. The cover can also include one or more protrusions separating the hinge bars. These protrusions correspond to the receptacles on the base.

A micro-transfer structure comprises a stamp comprising a rigid support, only a single contiguous bulk layer disposed on the rigid support, and posts disposed on the bulk layer. Components are adhered to (e.g., disposed in contact with) some but not all of the posts. The posts can be substantially identical and disposed in a regular array on the bulk layer. Each component is adhered to (e.g., in contact with) two or more posts. Components can be disposed on a source wafer entirely over sacrificial portions of a sacrificial layer on or in the source wafer and attached to anchors disposed between sacrificial portions with a tether.

A wheel logo imprinting device includes a wheel feeding system, a position identification system, a wheel turning system, a logo imprinting system, a station switching system, a logo drying system and a wheel discharging system. The device can be used for continuous production of assembly lines, can realize multi-directional, multi-angle and multi-number imprinting of personalized logos, orderly connects feeding, imprinting, drying and discharging through a reasonable process layout, and integrates imprinting and drying by using double stations so as to greatly improve the production efficiency and shorten the production cycle.

An assembly for precise positioning of a stamping tool, such as a photopolymer stamp. The assembly having a flat base of preferably a square shape. A platform of a predetermined height runs along the periphery of the flat base. A grid film removably adhered to the top surface of the flat base. Four alignment tabs can be provided on the four corners of the platform. A flip plate dimensioned to fit over the platform, such as corners of the flip plate juxtapose to the alignment tabs. A portion of the flip plate extends sidewards from the periphery of the platform, such as the flip plate can be lifted. The clear flip plate having radial lines that extend from the center to the periphery of the flip plate.

A craftwork accessory may provide a portable and/or easy-to-use tool to help users accurately and repeatedly apply stamp impressions and the like to items such as cardstock. The accessory may include a base portion, one or more elevated side portions and cover portion. The side portions mays define a workspace for arranging the item. The cover portion may be movably attached to the base portion or a side portion, for example, by one or more hinges. In operation, the item and stamp may be aligned in the workspace and the cover portion may be pressed onto the stamp to stick the stamp to the cover portion. The cover may then be opened, the stamp may be inked, and the cover portion may be closed and pressed onto the item to stamp the item. The accessory may include alignment indicia on the base portion, side portions and/or cover portion to facilitate placement of the item and/or stamp. The accessory may also include fastening mechanisms, such as magnetic elements, to facilitate placement of the item and/or stamp.
