Abstract

A strip roll for use in an assembly for dispensing tickets is described which assembly has a tear-off device from which the end of the strip protrudes and wherein the roll comprises a strip of flexible material having a series of penetrated lines spaced longitudinally along the strip with each line shaped and adapted to form an individual tongue shaped flap defined by a line starting from one point adjacent to but spaced inwardly from one marginal edge of the strip, extending forwards in the feeding direction of the strip and towards the centerline thereof and on the other side of the centerline of the strip extending back to another point adjacent to but spaced inwardly from the other marginal edge of the strip. The flap which is dimensioned to be gripped for pulling the strip is connected to the strip along a straight line drawn between the two points, which straight line is perpendicular to the feeding direction of the strip. On the two sides of each flap between the end points of the penetrated line and the adjacent marginal edges, marginal strip portions connect all of the ticket pieces in the strip.
