Area delineator

摘要

An area delineating device is disclosed for creating a temporary border or barrier between two or more points. The delineating device has a base, a hollow vertical member, and an exit opening in the vertical member. A series of flaps, preferably rubber, are located on the bottom of the base and facilitate access to the base cavity in which is housed a reel of disposable partitioning material, such as caution tape or police tape. The disposable partitioning material threads up from the base cavity, through the base channel and into the vertical cavity. The disposable partition material then exits the vertical cavity via the exit opening at the top of the delineating device. A series of lineal windows can be present in the vertical member.

1. A delineating device used to dispense an amount of partition material on a partition material reel, comprising:
a. a vertical member, having:
i. a vertical cavity; andii. an exit opening; b. a base attached to said vertical member, having a base cavity, base channel, a bottom portion and a series of flaps; c. wherein said partition material reel is capable of being inserted into said base cavity such that said partition material can be threaded through said base channel into said vertical cavity and out said exit opening; d. wherein said partition material is depleted; e. wherein when said partition material is depleted said partition material reel is capable of being removed through said series of flaps attached to said bottom portion of said base by pulling said partition material reel through said series of flaps; f. wherein said depleted partition material reel is capable of being replaced with a second partition material reel having partition material by pushing said second partition material reel through said series of flaps into said base cavity such that said partition material is accessible through said vertical member; and g. wherein said series of flaps enclose said partition material reel within said base cavity such that said partition material can enter said vertical cavity.
