Roll stabilizing support structure

An apparatus for stabilizing a roll of material, the apparatus comprising:

• a first conical base having a first through-hole extending completely through the first conical base along a first central axis, the first conical base comprising a first tapering section circumscribing and concentric with the first through-hole, the first tapering section configured to be inserted into a first opening of a central bore of the roll;
• a second conical base having a second through-hole extending completely through the second conical base along a second central axis, the second conical base comprising a second tapering section circumscribing and concentric with the second through-hole, the second tapering section configured to be inserted into a second opening opposite the first opening of the central bore of the roll;
• a roll holder bracket configured to secure to a wall, wherein the roll holder bracket comprises two arms;
• and
• a roll holder shaft configured to extend between the two arms of the roll holder bracket and configured to extend through the first and second-through holes of the first and second conical base structures, respectively, wherein at least portions of inner surfaces of the first and second-through holes are configured to directly engage the roll holder shaft;
• wherein engagement between the roll and the first and second conical base structures operably stabilizes rotation of the roll and the first and second conical bases are detachably coupleable with each other.

A method for stabilizing rotation of a roll of material, the method comprising:

• inserting a first tapering section of a first conical base into a first opening of a central bore of the roll, wherein the first conical base comprises a first through-hole extending completely through the first conical base along a first central axis;
• inserting a second tapering section of a second conical base into a second opening opposite the first opening of the central bore of the roll, wherein the second conical base comprises a second through-hole extending completely through the second conical base along a second central axis, wherein the first and second conical bases are detachably coupleable with each other;
• connecting the first tapering section of the first conical base to the second tapering section of the second conical base;
• inserting a roll holder shaft through the first and second central axis's of the first and second conical bases, respectively;
• and
• engaging the roller holder shaft to a roll holder bracket.
