A line fixing device includes a first housing, a second housing disposed to face the first housing, and a fixing member at least partially provided between the first housing and the second housing and configured to hold and fix a line. The fixing member includes a base portion, a column portion, protruding from a center of the base portion, around which the line is to be wound, and a plurality of latching protrusions disposed at predetermined intervals along an outer periphery of the base portion and configured to hold and fix a portion of the line which is not wound around the column portion. The latching protrusions have a tapered shape with a diameter gradually decreasing away from the base portion.

The present invention is a system for spooling flexible cord, having a spooler body with a central attachment cavity, an arbor connected to said spooler body, a plurality of projections emanating outward from a surface of said arbor, whereby said system is constructed and arranged to rotate and spool said cord.

A cable spool includes first and second curved flanges extending radially outwardly from first and second axial ends of a drum. The flanges have outer edges that cooperate to define an annular slot providing access to a passageway surrounding the drum. The slot has a width that is less than half the height of the drum. A cable is wrapped around the drum. A closure having an environmentally sealed interior may receive an end of the cable. A second cable can be deployed from a second spool and coupled to the end of the cable within the closure. The second spool can be mounted with the cable spool. A cover can be placed over the spools for aesthetic or protection reasons.

The invention relates to a sleeve (1) for winding with a roving (2), wherein the sleeve (1) has an elongated sleeve body (3) with three end faces (4), wherein the sleeve (1) is provided with a receptacle on its first end face (4), said receptacle being formed by an undercut (18), and wherein the sleeve (1) is provided with attachment (12) on its second end face (4), and wherein the sleeve body (3) has a contact region (5) intended for contact with a roving (2), and wherein the contact region (5) is formed at least predominately by a paper layer (9), and a capture structure (14) is provided for gripping one end of the roving. It is proposed according to the invention that the paper layer (9) is processed mechanically in at least some sections on its surface that forms the contact region (5), and/or the paper layer (9) is provided with an additive (6) that increases the roughness of the surface in the interior and/or on the surface thereof forming the contact region (5), and/or the paper layer (9) has a surface structure created by overlapping individual paper layers on the surface thereof, forming the contact region (5), in the production of the sleeve body (3).

A core prevents a battery separator wound therearound from moving and becoming misaligned on an outer circumferential surface of the core in a widthwise direction of the core. The core allows a separator to be wound around the outer circumferential surface thereof and is made of resin. The core includes a groove formed on the outer circumferential surface thereof, the groove extending in a direction substantially equivalent to a circumferential direction of the outer circumferential surface.

A fabric roll up core for carrying rolls of sheet material such as ground covers or canopy sheet materials including netting materials, used in agriculture or horticulture, such as bird, insect, hail, shade, wind barrier netting materials, comprises a profile formed in an outer surface that assists in maintaining the sheet material on the fabric roll up core when rolling the sheet material onto the fabric roll up core and which may be effective to work with roll up drive means. The core may be formed in one piece or as multiple connected parts.
