Abstract

A bow wrapping device having an integrated base adapted to carry a plurality of ribbon spools, vertical posts removably coupled to the base and adapted to retain ribbon fed from the ribbon spools, a rotating peg arm removably coupled to said base, at least one wrapping peg removably coupled to the peg arm, at least one wrapping peg handle removably coupled to the peg arm, wherein said peg arm is adapted to rotate relative to the base and wrap a plurality of ribbons received from the guide retainer in a concentric looped pattern around the wrapping peg and wrapping peg handle.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A bow wrapping device, comprising; 
 a base adapted to carry a plurality of ribbon spools,    vertical posts removably coupled to said base and adapted to retain ribbon fed from said ribbon spools,    a peg arm mount removably coupled to said base,    a peg arm removably coupled to said peg arm mount,    at least one wrapping peg removably coupled to said peg arm,    at least one wrapping peg handle removably coupled to said peg arm,    wherein said peg arm is adapted to rotate relative to said base and wrap a plurality of ribbons received from said guide retainer in a concentric looped pattern around said wrapping peg and said wrapping peg handle.    
     
     
         2 . The bow wrapping device of  claim 1  wherein said base is fixed or portable.  
     
     
         3 . The bow wrapping device of  claim 1  wherein the outside diameter of bows made with said device is in the range of approximately 2 to 16 inches.  
     
     
         4 . The bow wrapping device of  claim 1  wherein the perimeter edges of said peg arm are rounded or slanted.  
     
     
         5 . The bow wrapping device of  claim 1  wherein said spool pegs, vertical posts, peg arm mount, wrapping pegs, and wrapping peg handle are elongated for simultaneously wrapping multiple bows.  
     
     
         6 . The bow wrapping device of  claim 1  constructed from material selected from the group consisting of wood, plastic, polypropylene, hard rubber, and metal.  
     
     
         7 . A bow wrapping device, comprising; 
 a base adapted to carry a plurality of ribbon spools,    vertical posts removably coupled to said base and adapted to retain ribbon fed from said ribbon spools,    a tie wire fixture removably coupled to said base,    a peg arm removably coupled to said tie wire fixture,    wherein said peg arm is in a fixed position to manually loop and overlay a plurality of ribbons received from said guide retainer in a flat stacking pattern.    
     
     
         8 . The bow wrapping device of  claim 7  wherein said base is fixed or portable.  
     
     
         9 . The bow wrapping device of  claim 7  wherein the outside diameter of bows made with said device is in the range of approximately 2 to 22 inches.  
     
     
         10 . The bow wrapping device of  claim 7  constructed from material selected from the group consisting of wood, plastic, polypropylene, hard rubber, and metal.  
     
     
         11 . A method of making a bow comprising the steps of; 
 loading multiple ribbon spools onto a base,    threading ribbons from said ribbon spools through a guide retainer,    pinning said ribbons to a peg arm mount,    press fitting a wrapping peg and wrapping peg handle into said peg arm at a preselected position for a preselected bow size,    rotating said peg arm around the peg arm mount axis sufficient revolutions to form the number of concentric loops necessary for said preselected bow size,    lifting the intact concentric loops from said wrapping peg and wrapping peg handle,    folding said intact concentric loops along a fold axis vacated by said peg arm mount,    clipping excess ribbon along the two ribbon corners at the fold axis thereby forming a narrowed ribbon center seam,    tying the concentric loops together at said narrowed ribbon center seam,    spreading apart and twisting said concentric loops in an organized fashion,    positioning said loops relative to each other to form a decorative bow.    
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11  wherein the outside diameter of the bow is in the range of approximately 2 to 16 inches.  
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 11  wherein said ribbon spools are stacked to wrap at least two concentric loops simultaneously.
