Abstract
Abstract A roll holder which can be locked to an anchoring device which supports the holder. The anchoring device has outwardly extending arms with first and second channels formed therein. A tubular member is adapted to mate with the channels formed in the outwardly extending arms. The tubular structure has an annular channel formed in one end and an axial extension formed on the other end, such that a locking device can pull the tubular structure toward one end of the outwardly extending arms and fixedly lock it thereto.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
299 words
A roll holder comprising, an anchor means having a pair of outwardly extending arms, each of said arms including a slot formed therein, a tubular means having a first and second end adapted to be received by said slots, at least one of said ends having an axially threaded channel extending inwardly thereof, a rotation prevention means associated with one of said ends for preventing said tubular means from revolving with respect to said anchor means, an axially extending member having a wide head portion and a narrower threaded shank portion, said head portion including an engageable section adapted to engage a suitable tightening tool, and a cap means having a bore extending therethrough, said bore comprising a first axial channel of diameter sufficient to receive therethrough the shank portion of said axially extending member but having a diameter less than the head portion of said axially extending member, said annular cap means further including a second wider channel coaxial with said first channel and extending thru less than the thickness of said cap, said second channel being of a diameter sufficient to receive said head portion of said axially extending member, said second channel further having an axial depth at least as great as the axial height of said head portion of said axially extending member, so that said axially extending member is recessed within said cap when said axially extending member is fully threadably received by said tubular means, wherein said tubular means may be locked to said anchor means by locating said cap means adjacent said anchor means, extending said axially extending member through said cap means into said axially threaded channel and engaging said axially extending member with said suitable tightening tool and then rotating said tool until said axially extending member ceases to rotate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
299 words
A roll holder comprising, an anchor means having a pair of outwardly extending arms, each of said arms including a slot formed therein, a tubular means having a first and second end adapted to be received by said slots, at least one of said ends having an axially threaded channel extending inwardly thereof, a rotation prevention means associated with one of said ends for preventing said tubular means from revolving with respect to said anchor means, an axially extending member having a wide head portion and a narrower threaded shank portion, said head portion including an engageable section adapted to engage a suitable tightening tool, and a cap means having a bore extending therethrough, said bore comprising a first axial channel of diameter sufficient to receive therethrough the shank portion of said axially extending member but having a diameter less than the head portion of said axially extending member, said annular cap means further including a second wider channel coaxial with said first channel and extending thru less than the thickness of said cap, said second channel being of a diameter sufficient to receive said head portion of said axially extending member, said second channel further having an axial depth at least as great as the axial height of said head portion of said axially extending member, so that said axially extending member is recessed within said cap when said axially extending member is fully threadably received by said tubular means, wherein said tubular means may be locked to said anchor means by locating said cap means adjacent said anchor means, extending said axially extending member through said cap means into said axially threaded channel and engaging said axially extending member with said suitable tightening tool and then rotating said tool until said axially extending member ceases to rotate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
58 words
The invention of claim 1 wherein said rotation prevention means comprises an axially extended portion at one end of said tubular means which is received by at least one of said slots, said axially extended portion having at least one dimension greater than the width of said slot, thereby preventing said tubular means from rotating within said slot.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
54 words
The invention of claim 2 wherein the axially extending portion of said tubular means has a wiDth less than the thickness of one of said arms, and further wherein said tubular means includes a peripheral channel in its other end, said channel having a width greater than the width of the outwardly extending arm.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
26 words
A device according to claim 1 wherein the engageable section of the head portion of said axially extending member includes a key-way of predetermined cross section.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
14 words
A device of claim 1 wherein the cross section of the key-way is hexagonal.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
14 words
A device of claim 1 wherein the cross section of the key-way is square.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
14 words
A device of claim 1 wherein the cross section of the key-way is triangular.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
14 words
A device of claim 1 wherein the cross section of the key-way is pentagonal.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
26 words
A device according to claim 1 wherein the engageable section of the head portion of said axially extended member is shaped to receive a Phillips-Head screwdriver.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
82 words
A device according to claim 1 wherein said annular cap includes a third annular channel cut in the face of said cap opposite to the face having the second channel cut therein, said third channel being co-axial with said first channel and said second channel and having a diameter greater than the diameter of the tubular means, wherein the sum of the axial depths of said third channel and said first channel are less than the axial width of said annular cap.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
33 words
A device of claim 1 wherein the outer circumference of the head portion of said axially extended member includes at least one planar surface parallel to the axis of the axially extended member.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
25 words
A device of claim 11 wherein the head of the axially extended member possesses a square cross section in a plane perpendicular to its axis.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
25 words
A device of claim 11 wherein the head of the axially extended member possesses an hexagonal cross section in a plane perpendicular to its axis.
