The present invention disclosure relates to an adhesive tape dispenser (1) comprising a handle (2), a receiving apparatus (33) with a bearing (3) for an adhesive tape roll (100), an application apparatus (38) with an application roller (4), and a rotation-resistant fixed friction bridge (5) with a bridge sliding surface (6) and a deflection bead (26), wherein the adhesive tape dispenser (1) is adapted and arranged such that, during unwinding, an adhesive tape portion (103) of an adhesive tape roll (100) present on the bearing slides or is slidable over the bridge sliding surface (6), before it meets the application apparatus (38).

An ergonomic fish tape configured to house a fish tape in accordance with some example embodiments is provided. The fish tape includes a shell having an upper base wall, a lower base wall, an inner side wall extending between inner perimeters of the base walls and forming a central aperture through the shell, an outer side wall extending between outer perimeters of the base walls and defining an outer diameter of the shell, the walls defining a cavity therein, and a storage tray within the cavity. An opening through which the fish tape can pass is provided through the outer side wall. The fish tape case does not include a handle, and the walls of the shell are devoid of surfaces which would indicate or suggest to a user as to how to grip the fish tape case.

An adhesive dispenser is disclosed. The adhesive dispenser includes a cartridge, a dispensing roll, a plunger assembly, and a handle. The cartridge defines a cavity. The dispensing roll is positioned within the cavity and adapted to dispense an adhesive tape. The plunger assembly is positioned within the cavity and is adapted to move relative to the cartridge. The handle is adapted to receive the cartridge therein and is adapted to move the plunger assembly relative to the cartridge such that the plunger assembly applies a section of the adhesive tape to a surface adjoining a bottom portion of the cartridge.

A line-handling device is for letting out, winding up and locking a line. The line-handling device has: a first handle; a substantially flat reel which is rotatable relative to the first handle; a line-guiding part which is fixed relative to the first handle; a locking mechanism for locking the reel in a non-rotatable position; and an attachment element for a tautening device, the reel being displaceable relative to the first handle parallel to the rotational axis of the reel. A line-handling system is for suspending a line between two anchoring points and a method is for suspending a line between two anchoring points.

A tie down strap retrieval device that is configured to retrieve and roll a tie down strap after use on a flatbed style trailer. The present invention is configured to be releasably secured to a portion of the trailer. The tie down strap retrieval device includes a main support beam wherein the main support beam includes a rail engagement member that is configured to be releasably secured to a section of a trailer. The rail engagement member includes a hook member having a curved section configured to engage a rail or similar element. A roller assembly is rotatably mounted to a first side of the main support beam and includes a support plate and four mounting rods extending outward from the support plate and main support beam. A guide member is proximate the roller assembly and is configured to direct a strap onto the roller assembly.

The present invention relates to a device used to aid the rolling up and storage of a water mat or similar material.

A tape dispenser providing a dispensing assembly adapted to accommodate various widths of tape, wherein the dispensing assembly is operatively associated with a handle assembly to enable self-alignment of the dispensing tape and the dispensing assembly, and wherein a cutting assembly is operatively associated with the dispensing assembly for selectively cutting the dispensing tape.

Described herein is a fish tape reel comprising a housing with two side shells coupled together. The housing defines an internal cavity. An internal portion of the housing defines a plurality of flat gripping portions and a plurality of finger notches. The housing comprises a plurality of tabs in the internal cavity, the tabs interfacing against an inner annular portion that is coupled to the handle when the handle rotates around the housing.

Implementations of spool devices may include a frame including an anchor, the anchor configured to directly couple to a belt of a user, an axle coupled through the frame, and a first spool coupled over a first portion of the axle. The first portion of the axle may extend entirely through the first spool. The spool device may also include a second spool coupled over a second portion of the axle. The second portion of the axle may extend entirely through the second spool. The spool device may also include a first spool handle directly coupled to an outer wall of the first spool, a second spool handle directly coupled to an outer wall of the second spool, a first hose roller directly coupled to the frame, and a second hose roller directly coupled to the frame.
