Abstract:
A rollable dispenser for spooled wire looks much like a large hose reel. However, instead of the circular platters being held together by a central cylindrical core, they are held together by equiangularly-spaced tubular braces which rigidly interconnect the frames adjacent their circular peripheral edges. One or more wire spools are retained between the platters on removable axles which span the distance between both platters at radial intervals. One or more spools may also be retained by a centrally positioned axle. For a preferred embodiment of the invention, each platter is constructed from a length of circularly-bent tubing, the ends of which are butt welded together to form a hoop. Each platter further includes a circular laminar plate that includes a circular rim, a central hub having a single axle aperture, and radial laminar spokes, each having an axle aperture, which join the rim to the hub.
