Device for applying adhesive mounting tape

Device for applying adhesive mounting tape from a roll on sections of walls, floors or ceilings, in particular on floor/wall finishing strips, it being the case that the device has a handle, a rotatably mounted application element for the adhesive mounting tape, and a receiving element for the roll for unwinding the mounting tape, these being arranged on a carrier, and it being the case that the application element has, on at least one side, an application edge with such a radius that the mounting tape, which is fed with the free adhesive surface oriented away from the application element, can be fixed adhesively right into inner corners, characterized in that, in plan view, the application element has a form which is provided with at least two application edges perpendicularly with respect to the application direction, it being the case that arranged beside the application edges are planar application surfaces, for the purpose of applying the mounting tape to essentially planar surfaces, and provided between the application surfaces which are arranged between two adjacent application edges is in each case one recess, in the form of a curved section, for the purpose of pivoting the application element when it goes round outer corners.
