power cord dispensing apparatus comprising

The use of retracting power cord assemblies is known in the prior art. More specifically, retracting power cord assemblies heretofore devised and utilized are known to consist basically of familiar, expected and obvious structural configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which have been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.

In these respects, the power cord dispensing system according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in so doing provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of allowing the convenient use of electrical appliances.

The general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new power cord dispensing system apparatus and method which has many of the advantages of the retracting power cord assemblies mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new power cord dispensing system which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art retracting power cord assemblies, either alone or in any combination thereof.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception, upon which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a new power cord dispensing system apparatus and method which has many of the advantages of the retracting power cord assemblies mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new power cord dispensing system which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art retracting power cord assemblies, either alone or in any combination thereof.

Even still another object of the present invention is to provide a new power cord dispensing system that includes a housing with a retracting spool mounted therein for selectively retracting a power cord through an opening formed in the housing.
