Abstract

The combination of a backing plate member, a hollow tube and a container having coiled filamentary material therein for paying out filamentary material coiled in the container through the tube, with the hollow tube having an end portion including a pair of oppositely disposed projections and the side wall panel including a cut-out portion substantially conforming to the shape of the end portion including the opposed projections. The backing plate member comprising a substantially planar member made of a resilient material and having a cut-out portion and substantially conforming in shape to the shape of the end portion of the tube enabling passage of the end portion through the cut-out portion of the planar member, a first ramped surface being formed on an edge portion of each of the opposing projections and adapted to enable each projection of the tube to be rotated in a given direction onto the surface of the planar member thereby locking the tube with respect to the planar member.
