Abstract:
A handle and method for unrolling and deploying a sheet of material from a roll are provided. In a first configuration, the handle includes a rigid rod and a graspable arm that form an open quadrilateral frame. The frame is assembled to pierce through an open core of the roll of sheet material. The graspable arm may be manually manipulated while the roll of sheet material is constrained by the rod. In a second orientation, components of the frame are differently coupled to form an extended arm whereby an edge of the sheet material is captured at a far end of the extended arm, and a user may thus unroll the sheet material by forcing the far end of the extended arm to pull the sheet material away from the sheet material roll. A cap cylinder may couple the far end of the extended arm with the sheet material.

     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    The present invention relates to the field of deploying sheets of material. More particularly, the method of the present invention relates to devices and methods applicable for unrolling and deployed sheets of material from an initial rolled state. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0003]    Sheet materials, such as textiles, paper, flexible plastics and fencing materials, often have surface areas that extend for dozens or hundreds of square feet. Where the surface area of a deployed sheet is defined as extending in a width dimension that is orthogonal to a length dimension, prior art sheets include sheets having widths greater than six feet and lengths longer than ten feet. Sheet materials are often rolled about an axis that is parallel with the width dimension in order to package and ship the sheet material. In certain cases, consumers and business purchasers find the extension of the rolled material in the full width dimension to be inconvenient. 
         [0004]    As used herein, the terms “sheet material” and “sheet” mean a material that is thin in comparison to its length and breadth. For example, certain sheet materials may be less than 0.01 inch thick while presenting a surface are that is several feet in width and several feet in length. Generally speaking, sheet materials should exhibit a relatively flat planar configuration and be flexible to permit folding, rolling, stacking, and the like. Exemplary sheets and sheet materials include, but are not limited to, flexible materials such as a netting, elastomer netting, deer netting, fencing materials, barrier materials, plant protection materials, organic fabric, textile, cloth, metallic chain mail sheet, metallic threaded fabric, aramid fiber, polyester film, elastomer, metallic foil, metallic film, paper tissue, paper towels, label rolls, or other fibrous, film, polymers, and filamentary products. As can be seen from the breadth of materials that sheet materials may comprise, sheets are used widely in agricultural, agrarian, domestic, and urban environments. Yet the prior art fails to optimally provide reconfigurable tools and method of use for deploying sheet material from a rolled orientation. 
         [0005]    There is therefore a long felt need to provide methods and devices that more broadly enable the deployment of sheet material from a rolled state and into an unrolled and deployed state 
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
       [0006]    This and other objects of the present invention are made obvious in light of this disclosure, wherein a method and device for unrolling and deploying a rolled sheet material is presented. In a first configuration, a disassemblable handle is provided that may be assembled to form a frame having an insertable length and a graspable arm. When assembled by coupling the insertable length and the graspable arm, the frame is adapted to capture and position a roll of sheet material. The insertable length may be extended through an open core of the roll of sheet material while the invented handle is at least partially disassembled, and the graspable arm is adapted to be fully coupled with the insertable length to form the frame while the insertable length is positioned within the open core of the roll of sheet material. The frame may thus be assembled to capture the roll of sheet material by (a.) first positioning the insertable length through or into the open core of the roll of sheet material while the insertable length is at least partially decoupled from the graspable arm; and (b.) then completely coupling the graspable arm to both ends of the insertable length while the insertable length is positioned within the open core of the roll of sheet material. One or more additional or optional alternate configurations of the invented handle may permit the graspable arm to be first inserted into the core of the roll of sheet material and for the insertable length to then be attached to the graspable arm. 
         [0007]    The invented handle and method further provide additional, optional and alternative features aspects, such as (a.) the insertable length may be formed by two or more substantively equally long lengths that may be detachably assembled to form the insertable length; (b.) the graspable arm may be formed by two or more substantively equally long elements that may be detachably assembled to form the graspable arm; (c.) components of the graspable arm and/or the insertable length may be configured or used for direct attachment with the sheet of material and adapted to enable a user to unroll and deploy the sheet of material; (d.) a combination of one or more components of the graspable arm and/or the insertable length may be configured to form an extended arm and to capture the sheet material between a cap and a far end of the extended arm. 
         [0008]    The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages will be apparent from the following description of aspects of the present invention as illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

The first spring-loaded pin S 1 P simultaneously extends through the first tongue spring aperture T 1 S and a first spring pin receiver aperture R 1 A whereby the first handle tongue T 1  and the first rod receiver R 1  are detachably coupled. The first spring rod receiver aperture R 1 A is formed by the first rod elongate body  26 L. The first spring-loaded pin S 1 P extends through the first rod element  26  with spring force and may be manually pushed back into the first tongue T 1  whereby the first tongue T 1  may be manually pulled away from the first rod element  26  and the first rod element  26  and the first arm portion  30  may be decoupled. 
         [0065]    It is understood that each other tongue T 2 , TR &amp; TH may optionally conform to the description of the alternate design of the first tongue T 1  of  FIGS. 13A &amp; 13B , and further that each other receiver R 2 , R 3  &amp; RH may form and provide a spring receiver aperture to accept a spring-loaded pin S 1 P. 
         [0066]      FIG. 14A  is an exploded view of a capture cap assembly  40 . The capture cap assembly  40  includes a cap  40 A, a cap assembly body  40 B and an additional first spring assembly S 1 A. 
         [0067]    A cap tongue  40 BT of the cap assembly  40 B extends from a cap assembly plug  40 BP, whereby the cap tongue  40 BT is positioned to extend through or pierce the sheet  6  when the cap assembly plug  40 BP is inserted into and coupled with a receiver R 1 , R 2 , R 3  &amp; RH. A cap  40 A of the cap assembly  40  is sized and shaped to form a friction fit around the cap tongue  40 BT and thereby capture the sheet  6  between the cap  40 A and the cap assembly plug  40 BP. 
         [0068]    The cap assembly plug  40 BP further includes a first cap plug portion  40 BP 1  that is sized and shaped to present a first outer diameter to form a friction fit with the receivers R 1 , R 2 , R 3  &amp; RH, and a second cap plug portion  40 BP 2  having a larger outer diameter approximately equal to the outer diameter of the rod elements  26  &amp;  28  and the arm portions  30  &amp;  32 . The first cap plug portion  40 BP 1  further forms a cap plug aperture  40 BA that is sized and shaped to permit the spring-loaded pin S 1 P of the spring assembly S 1 A to pass extend through and further through a receiver aperture R 1 A of a receiver R 1 , R 2 , R 3  &amp; RH. 
         [0069]      FIG. 14B  is a perspective view of the capture cap assembly  40  and the exemplary first receiver R 1  of the first rod element  26  in a decoupled state.
