Abstract
A new film seal for providing a seal which allows a user to easily ascertain whether a roll of film has been exposed or is a new roll of film. The inventive device includes an elongate strip with an adhesive provided on one of the surfaces of the strip. The adhesive is adapted for adhesively coupling the first surface of the strip to an object. One of the ends of the strip has a lifting tab adapted for aiding the detachment of the strip from an object.
Claims13
A seal device for attachment on a generally cylindrical container of film, said seal device comprising:
- an elongate strip having first and second surfaces, a pair of ends, a pair of side edges extending between said ends of said strip;
- said first surface of strip having an adhesive provided thereon, said adhesive being adapted for adhesively coupling said first surface of said strip to an object;
- one of said ends of said strip having a lifting tab, said lifting tab being adapted for aiding the detachment of said strip from an objects
- wherein said strip has a generally circular portion, said circular portion of said strip being centrally positioned on said strip between said ends of said strip such that said circular portion of said strip defines a pair of arm portions of said strip outwardly extending from said central portion of said strip, said strip having a diameter;
- and
- wherein said circular portion of said strip has a hole therethrough between said first and second surfaces of said strip, said hole of said circular portion having a generally circular outer periphery, said outer periphery of said hole of said circular portion having a diameter.
A seal device for attachment on a generally cylindrical container of film, said seal device comprising:
- a strip being generally Z-shaped having first and second surfaces, a pair of end portions and a cross portion extending between said end portions of said strip;
- said first surface of strip having an adhesive provided thereon, said adhesive being adapted for adhesively coupling said first surface of said strip to an object;
- said cross portion of said strip having a generally circular portion, said circular portion of said cross portion being centrally positioned on said cross portion of said strip between said end portions of said strip;
- said circular portion of said cross portion having a pair of diametrically opposite lifting fingers outwardly extending therefrom, the lengths of said lifting fingers being generally parallel with the lengths of said end portions of said strip;
- each of said lifting fingers having a lifting tab, said lifting tab being adapted for aiding the detachment of said strip from an object.
A seal device for attachment on a generally cylindrical container of film, said seal device comprising:
- a strip being generally H-shaped and having first and second surfaces, a pair of elongate portions and a cross portion extending between said elongate portions of said strip;
- said first surface of strip having an adhesive provided thereon, said adhesive being adapted for adhesively coupling said first surface of said strip to an object;
- each of said elongate portions of said strip having a pair of opposite ends, each end of each of said elongate portions having a lifting tab, said lifting tab being adapted for aiding the detachment of said strip from an object;
- said cross portion of said strip having a generally circular portion, said circular portion of said strip having a hole therethrough between said first and second surfaces of said strip, said hole of said circular portion having a generally circular outer periphery.
