In the second embodiment of the present invention, the axial rod 31 can be provided with a roll of film not having a paper reel.

    [0024] Referring to FIG. 13, FIG. 14, and FIG. 15, when the user wants to install the second film application unit 30 or replace the roll of film not having the paper reel, the first positioning portion 311 at one end of the axial rod 31 is pushed against the first retaining portion 1421 of the quick-release unit 14 for the retaining portion 1421 to compress the elastic member 141, and the second positioning portion 312 at the other end of the axial rod 31 disengages from a protruding portion 152 of the limit unit 15, such that the second film application unit 30 can be taken out for the user to take out the roll of film not having the paper reel to get it replaced.

    [0025] Through the quick-release unit 14, the user can take out the second film application unit 30 quickly to replace or take out the roll of film not having the paper reel conveniently.

    [0026] Referring to FIG. 8, FIG. 9 as well as FIG. 14, FIG. 15, through the first film application unit 40, the film packing device can be mounted with a roll of film having a paper reel, and through the second film application unit 30, the film packing device can be mounted with a roll of film not having a paper reel. By a replacement of few parts, the film packing device can be applied to different types of rolls of film having or not having a paper reel and provide a stable packing effect.

    [0027] The present invention is made to solve a problem of the way the packing film is applied manually. The purpose of the packing film is:
    1. 1 stabilize the load on pallets
    2. 2 protect products against UV light
    3. 3 avoid tamper by hiding the products in opaque film
    4. 4 bundle multiple parcels to 1 package to save on transport costs


    [0028] The present invention will allow the user to stabilize a pallet load fast, without bending, safely walking forward with a consistent and reproducible force to the load. With the invention the roll of film can be used till the very end.

    [0029] Referring to FIG. 6 and FIG. 12, it is noted that the handle can be selectively mounted with the handle 131 in a different length to form a different interval between the coupling rod 11 and the base 12 for installation of different lengths of film application units so as to adjust different types of film.

    [0030] Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 13, the drive gear 232 and the reduction gear 242 can be connected and positioned quickly through the first axle gear 231 and the second axle gear 241 to form the first gear set 23 and the second gear set 24. The gear ratio of the drive gear 232 and the reduction gear 242 can be adjusted according to different films to provide the best application effect.

    [0031] Accordingly, the film packing device can be applied for various occasions and cooperate with an oncoming film effectively to achieve the best effect.

    [0032] Referring to FIG. 16, another end of the first connecting rod 26 is provided with the engaging surface 261 for the end of the first connecting rod 26 to be secured to the base 12. The user can turn the adjustment knob 28 at one end of the first connecting rod 26 to tighten the first connecting rod 26 so as to slightly adjust the tension of the film.

    [0033] It is noted that the film packing device of the present invention can be used stably without bending down when in use and it can be operated with a single hand. If a roll gets damaged by dropping on the floor the roll is on most cases useless. With the invention the operator will be able to use the roll of packaging film till the very end.

    [0034] Referring to FIG. 16 and FIG. 10, the present invention is provided with the tension judgement member 29. The tension judgement member 29 is a pattern. The pattern is selected from one of a convex pattern and a concave pattern or a combination thereof. Also the tension judgement member 29 comprise a unique series number. When the film passes through the tension judgement member 29, the pattern is transferred to the film. Thus, the user can judge the tension of the film through the size of the deformed pattern after the film is pulled to extend.

    [0035] The tension judgement member 29 or any other embossing will allow the user to check the result and therefore the quality of the way the film is applied. This is new and unique. In general, the tension judgement member 29 will reduce waste of packaging film due to the optimal application. Producers of film can offer optimal use of their products. The present invention will activate the thermoplastic film to make it elastic. After application the film wants to return to its original "position". This will add extra force to load after a period of time.

    [0036] Referring to FIG. 17, the coupling rod 11 and the base 12 are provided with a magnets member 16, the user can hang the film packing device 100 on a metal surface. This will make it easier to grab the film packing device 100 on a convenient ergonomic height, also extend life time of the film packing device 100, avoid damage.
