Tape roll holder

A dispenser for a roll of adhesive tape, comprising:

• a backplate extending from a first section to a second section in a first plane;
• a spindle attached to the first section of the backplate and extending substantially perpendicular to the first plane by a first distance to a distal end, wherein the roll of adhesive tape engages the spindle and rotates on the spindle relative to the backplate around an axis of rotation perpendicular to the first plane;
• a cutting surface extending substantially perpendicular to the second section of the backplate by a second distance to a distal edge, wherein the cutting surface comprises a pair of sides, wherein at least one of the sides comprises a serrated edge, and wherein the serrated edge is substantially parallel to the axis of rotation;
• and
• a writing device holder attached to at least one of the backplate, the spindle, and the cutting surface, wherein the writing device holder is comprised of a pair of posts extending substantially perpendicular to the external face and a bar connected between the posts, wherein the writing device holder is spaced a distance from the roll of adhesive tape engaged with the spindle.

A dispenser for a roll of adhesive tape, comprising:

• a backplate extending from a first section to a second section in a first plane;
• a spindle attached to the first section of the backplate, wherein the spindle comprises a bottom trough and a sidewall, wherein a proximal end of the bottom trough is attached to the first section of the backplate, wherein the bottom trough extends substantially perpendicular to the first plane by a first distance to a distal end, wherein the sidewall is located at the distal end of the bottom trough and is arranged substantially parallel to the backplate, wherein the roll of adhesive tape engages the spindle and rotates on the spindle relative to the backplate around an axis of rotation perpendicular to the first plane, and wherein the sidewall is located only adjacent to the upper section of the backplate and there is no sidewall in the lower section;
• a cutting surface extending substantially perpendicular to the second section of the backplate by a second distance to a distal edge, wherein the cutting surface comprises a pair of sides, and wherein each of the sides comprise a serrated edge;
• and
• a tab comprising a base attached to the lower section of the backplate and a tip extending upward from the base towards the bottom trough, and wherein the tip is separated from the backplate by a space approximately equal to the first distance.

• a spindle attached to the first section of the backplate and extending substantially perpendicular to the first plane by a first distance to a distal end, wherein the roll of adhesive tape engages the spindle and rotates on the spindle relative to the backplate around an axis of rotation perpendicular to the first plane;
• and
• a cutting surface extending substantially perpendicular to the second section of the backplate by a second distance to a distal edge, wherein the cutting surface comprises a pair of sides, wherein at least one of the sides comprises a serrated edge, and wherein the serrated edge further comprises a plurality of teeth with a first length and at least one tooth having a second length with a second length greater than the first length.
