Spool Repair

Abstract

The instant application discloses, among other things, a way to repair a spool. In one embodiment, the way to repair the spool may include a disk configured to receive a coupler. The coupler may be projected from a center of the disk. In another embodiment, the coupler may have prongs with various dimensions attached along its length. This may provide a fix for damaged flange portions of wire or cable spools, thereby preventing cable or wire, wound around a spool's tubular core, from coming undone or tangling.

1 . A spool repair device, comprising:
 a coupler, the coupler operable to secure to an end of a spool;   a disk, the disk operable to receive the coupler; and   an attachment means, the attachment means operable to secure the disk to the coupler.   
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1 , further operable to secure to an internal surface of a tubular portion of the spool. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 1 , further operable to have the attachment means secure the disk orthogonally to a center of the coupler. 
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the attachment means comprises an item selected from the list containing an adhesive, magnet, hook and loop fastener, clip, screw, and bolt. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 1 , comprising a material selected from the list containing polymers, composites, wood, rubber, and metal.
