Abstract

An apparatus and method for a stretch wrap dispenser are disclosed. An example embodiment includes: a stem; a lower roll holder and stand-up base attached to the stem, beveled side up, with a stem stud, the lower roll holder and stand-up base being configured to enable the stem to stand upright; an upper roll holder attached to the stem, beveled side down, and configured to cause a stretch wrap material roll to fit snugly between the lower roll holder and stand-up base and the upper roll holder; a compression spring placed over the stem; a handle attached to the stem; and a tension control pin insertable through one of a set of holes in the stem to adjust for a desired level of tension in the compression spring.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A stretch wrap dispenser comprising:
 a stem;   a lower roll holder and stand-up base attached to the stem, beveled side up, with a stem stud, the lower roll holder and stand-up base being configured to enable the stem to stand upright;   an upper roll holder attached to the stem, beveled side down, and configured to cause a stretch wrap material roll to fit snugly between the lower roll holder and stand-up base and the upper roll holder;   a compression spring placed over the stem;   a handle attached to the stem; and   a tension control pin insertable through one of a set of holes in the stem to adjust for a desired level of tension in the compression spring.   
     
     
         2 . The stretch wrap dispenser of  claim 1  including a lanyard attached to the tension control pin. 
     
     
         3 . The stretch wrap dispenser of  claim 1  wherein the handle is 60″, 52″, or 39″ long. 
     
     
         4 . The stretch wrap dispenser of  claim 1  wherein the stem and the handle are fabricated from aluminum. 
     
     
         5 . The stretch wrap dispenser of  claim 1  wherein the handle includes holes through which the tension control pin can be inserted. 
     
     
         6 . A method comprising:
 inserting a lower roll holder and stand-up base over a stem, beveled side up and rotating the lower roll holder and stand-up base until it locks in place with a stem stud, the lower roll holder and stand-up base being configured to enable the stem to stand upright;   inserting a stretch wrap material roll over the stem;   inserting an upper roll holder over the stem, beveled side down and causing the stretch wrap material roll to fit snugly between the lower roll holder and stand-up base and the upper roll holder;   placing a compression spring over the stem;   inserting a handle through the open loop of a tension control pin lanyard to which a tension control pin is attached;   sliding the handle over the stem; and   adjusting to a desired level of tension by compressing the compression spring and inserting the tension control pin through one of a set of holes in the stem.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 6  including attaching a lanyard to the tension control pin. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 6  wherein the handle is 60″, 52″, or 39″ long. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 6  wherein the stem and the handle are fabricated from aluminum. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 6  wherein the handle includes holes through which the tension control pin can be inserted.
