Abstract
The invention relates to a device for transferring to a surface correcting material supplied on a tape-like carrier, provided with a housing comprising a rotatable supply reel for the carrier with the correcting material, a rotatable take-up reel for the carrier after transfer of the material, a transfer member for placing on the surface and along which the carrier with the material is guided, and displaceable means for covering the transfer member. Inadvertent transfer of material when the device is not in use is hereby prevented. The covering means is operable by an operating member which protrudes out of a wall of the housing. The covering means can comprise a displaceable slide, which can take an at least partially flexible form.
