Tape cleaner

Abstract

The disclosed tape cleaner is convenient to use and allows easy replacement of the tape, and prevents an adhesive tape roller from moving away from the tape cleaner during use. The tape cleaner comprises an adhesive tape roller, a support roller which is inserted and mounted into the adhesive tape roller and supports the adhesive tape roller, an upper cover which has both side ends coupled to both side ends of the support roller, respectively, and encloses a part of an outer circumferential surface of the adhesive tape roller, a rotary cover which has both side ends coupled to both side ends of the support roller, respectively, encloses a part of the outer circumferential surface of the adhesive tape roller inside the upper cover, and is rotatable about an axis in a longitudinal direction of the support roller, and a handle connected to the upper cover, in which the rotary cover includes a tape cutter part which is positioned at an edge portion thereof and cuts an adhesive tape of the adhesive tape roller, the upper cover includes a stopper part which is positioned on an inner circumferential surface of the upper cover and stops the rotary cover so that the rotary cover is not arbitrarily rotated when the adhesive tape is cut by the tape cutter part, both the adhesive tape roller and the support roller are rotatable about the axis in the longitudinal direction of the support roller, and all of the adhesive tape roller, the support roller, the upper cover, and the rotary cover are attachable and detachable.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A tape cleaner comprising:
 an adhesive tape roller;   a support roller which is inserted and mounted into the adhesive tape roller and supports the adhesive tape roller;   an upper cover which has both side ends coupled to both side ends of the support roller, respectively, and encloses a part of an outer circumferential surface of the adhesive tape roller;   a rotary cover which has both side ends coupled to both side ends of the support roller, respectively, encloses a part of the outer circumferential surface of the adhesive tape roller inside the upper cover, and is rotatable about an axis in a longitudinal direction of the support roller; and   a handle connected to the upper cover,   wherein the rotary cover includes a tape cutter part which is positioned at an edge portion thereof and cuts an adhesive tape of the adhesive tape roller,   the upper cover includes a stopper part which is positioned on an inner circumferential surface of the upper cover and stops the rotary cover so that the rotary cover is not arbitrarily rotated when the adhesive tape is cut by the tape cutter part,   both the adhesive tape roller and the support roller are rotatable about the axis in the longitudinal direction of the support roller, and   all of the adhesive tape roller, the support roller, the upper cover, and the rotary cover are attachable and detachable.   
     
     
         2 . The tape cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein the upper cover has a withdrawing groove which is positioned at one edge portion or both edge portions thereof and withdraws the rotary cover enclosed by the upper cover. 
     
     
         3 . The tape cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein the tape cutter part is integrally formed with the rotary cover, or formed to be disassembled from the rotary cover. 
     
     
         4 . The tape cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein the rotary cover is fixed when the rotary cover is fully enclosed by the upper cover, and when the rotary cover is rotated about the axis in the longitudinal direction of the support roller and positioned to be symmetrical to the upper cover. 
     
     
         5 . The tape cleaner of  claim 4 , wherein the upper cover has guides and grooves on inner surfaces of both sides thereof, the rotary cover has side protrusions on outer surfaces of both sides thereof, and the side protrusions are moved along the guides and then fitted into the grooves so that the rotary cover is fixed. 
     
     
         6 . The tape cleaner of  claim 5 , wherein the upper cover has one guide and two grooves formed on each inner surface of both sides thereof, the rotary cover has one or two side protrusions formed on each outer surface of both sides thereof, and the side protrusion is moved along the guide and then fitted into the groove such that the rotary cover is fixed. 
     
     
         7 . The tape cleaner of  claim 5 , wherein the upper cover has two or four guides and four grooves formed on each inner surface of both sides thereof, the rotary cover has one side protrusions formed on each of an upper portion and a lower portion of the outer surfaces of both sides thereof, and the side protrusions are moved along the guides and then fitted into the grooves such that the rotary cover is fixed. 
     
     
         8 . The tape cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein the rotary cover has support members formed at a lower portion thereof. 
     
     
         9 . The tape cleaner of  claim 8 , wherein the upper cover has grooves which accommodate the support members of the rotary cover. 
     
     
         10 . The tape cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein the adhesive tape roller has perforated tear lines provided for each circumference of a roll of the adhesive tape. 
     
     
         11 . The tape cleaner of  claim 1 , wherein the support roller includes a support roller core, a first support roller side cap, a second support roller side cap, and an elastic member. 
     
     
         12 . The tape cleaner of  claim 11 , wherein a partition wall is formed in the support roller core, and the elastic member is disposed between the first support roller side cap and the partition wall. 
     
     
         13 . The tape cleaner of  claim 12 , wherein a button is disposed at the first supper roller side cap and the elastic member can be compressed by pushing the button.
