Definitions
- Pads of sheets of flexible material are padded by being provided on their backs with so-called repositional (or repositionable) adhesive.
- the terminal sheet in the pad usually lacks a backing of adhesive, and often is made of a sheet which is noticeably different in appearance (e.g. a padded stack of canary yellow sheets terminated by a kraft brown backing sheet bearing a manufacturer's name and logo on its exterior face). Sheets which are successively the top sheet may be successively written upon, successively peeled off and repositionally stuck on another surface, such as on a page of a book, on a refrigerator door or on a telephone handset.
- the pad slides or falls and may become lost behind a piece of furniture, or the exposed strip of repositional adhesive may get dusty or attract enough food crumbs, dog hairs or whatever may be on the floor, so that its already deficient power to firmly stick the whole pad to a surface is lost, necessitating at the least, that the rear sheet be peeled off and thrown away in order to expose a new strip of repositional adhesive.
- this technique results in the pad being used from both ends (one end by being written on and peeled off, and the other by getting dirty and being peeled off).
- CH-A-452479 describes a pad having a plurality of individual sheets each sheet being joined to the sheet underneath it by a strip of non-drying adhesive.
- One side (the upper side) of each sheet has one side which is smooth and does not take up adhesive.
- US Specification No US-A-3937491 describes a non-skid releasable sheet paper note pad with sheets of paper and a cardboard base glued together across their end edges and with a sheet of deformable material such as sponge rubber attached to the bottom surface of the base by cement and a support member secured to the sheet by glue.
- the present invention was devised to overcome the above mentioned shortcomings of existing ways and means for fixing the position of a pad of adhesively back-coated repositional sheets of note paper or the like.
- a pad of sheets of flexible material has each sheet but the last one provided on its rear surface with a band, spot or other region of lightly tacky adhesive which allows the sheet to be peeled off and pressed onto another surface to removably hold that sheet to a surface, eg for bearing a message.
- the back of the last sheet is provided with an adhesive area having a significantly stronger bonding strength by the adhesive itself being stronger or covering a larger area, e.g. so that the pad, once stuck to a surface, such as that of a wall, will stay put, throughout the life of the pad, and until intentionally removed.
- a prior art pad of repositional sheets is illustrated at 10 in Figures 1 and 2.
- This pad comprises a plurality of sheets 14 of flexible material, such as note paper, arranged in a stack.
- Each sheet 14, except the bottom (or backing) sheet 16 has been provided on its back with at least one strip, band, region, area or the like 18, continuous or discrete, of a lightly-tacky adhesive.
- the adhesive 18 most frequently is provided in a narrow band occupying, e.g., the top approximately twenty percent of the back surface 20 of each respective sheet, adjoining the top edge 22 of the sheet, which coincides with the top edge of the pad.
- the backing sheet 16 may be similar in composition to the sheets 14, although it often is a different color, in order to help consumers to avoid attempting to use the wrong side of the pad.
- the pad 10 rests on a surface 24 with no adhesive between the back surface 26 of the backing sheet 16 and the surface 24 on which the pad is supported.
- the pad may be stuck to the surface 24 (in an unsatisfactory way), by peeling off the backing sheet 16 and using the band of repositional adhesive 18F on the newly-exposed last sheet 14F to try to temporarily adhere the pad 10 to the surface 24.
- Moore Business Forms, Inc. manufactures and/or distributes a type of prior art pad as shown in Figures 1 and 2, under the trademark Note Stix®.
- the pad 10′ of the present invention may comprise exactly the same elements as the prior art pad 10, except for the nature of the adhesive used in the coating on the last sheet in the stack. Accordingly, like parts have been given like numerals, but primed ones.
- the band of adhesive provided at 18F′ is not merely the same in composition, area, thickness and degree of tackiness as the bands of adhesive 18′. Instead, due to any combination of differences in composition, area, thickness and degree of tackiness, it has substantially greater holding-power than do the individual bands 18′.
- the backing sheet 16′ may need to be a release-coated sheet, e.g. a sheet of paper coated with wax, a polyethylene terephthalate varnish or the like so as to permit the backing sheet 16′ to be peeled-off so that the pad 10′, can be firmly stuck, via the adhesive 18F′ to a surface 24.
- the adhesive 18F′ may itself be a layer of double-sided adhesive tape, such as that marketed by Moore Business Forms, Inc. under the name "Transfer” tape.
- the removable backing sheet 16′ need be coextensive only with the strip of double-sided adhesive tape and not necessarily coextensive with the rear surface facial area of the last sheet 14F′ of the pad.
- an adhesive which has closer, if not identical holding power to that used for the strips 18′ can be used for the strip 18F′ if the latter covers a greater area than does each of the strips 18′, e.g. as is illustrated at 18F ⁇ in Figure 6.
- a pad 10′ is constructed of the materials and by the techniques currently used to produce Note Stix pads, except that the adhesive used at 18F′ on the last sheet, instead of being merely the same as used at 18′, and the backing sheet 16′ were provided by the Transfer tape product referred to above.
- the standard test used at Moore Business Forms, Inc. for the holding strength of a pressure sensitive-type adhesive for repositional paper sheets is: 90 DEGREE peel test pulled at 30.5 cm per minute (12 inches per minute) from stainless steel, sample size 2,5 cm x 20 cm (1 ⁇ x 8 ⁇ .) Rolled four times with a 1.8 kg (4 lb.) roller.
- the holding strength of the bands of adhesive 18′ is typically in the range of: 2.24g - 44.7g per centimetre (.2 - 4.0 ounces per inch).
- the holding strength of the band of adhesive 18F is typically in the range of: 2.24g - 44.7g per centimetre. (.2 - 40.0 ounces per inch.) (Note; low strength would apply at high area coverage)
- the adhesive used at 18F may be the same as that used at 18' but covers a broader area of the back of the respective sheet
- the adhesive used typically is that currently used for making Note Stix pads, but whereas the adhesive 18' covers a band occupying in the range of: 1 - 50 percent of the rear face of each respective sheet, the adhesive 18F' covers a band occupying in the range of: 1 - 100 percent of the rear face of the last sheet.
- the backing sheet 16 may cover less than all of the total area of the rear surface of the last sheet 14F.
