  • Patent number: 5918316

The clip-on accessory is die cut from a vinyl plastic or cardstock sheet and is pre-scored to include two bi-fold hinges defining a central display panel and two opposite folding panels that are folded around the cap strap. A locking tab configuration is also disclosed for securing the accessory on the cap strap. A push-out outlocking tab is cut into one panel and, once the lower and upper panels have been folded around the back of the cap strap, may be pushed through a second tab in the opposing panel to lock the accessory in position around the cap strap. The accessory may also be cut to form a customized pop-out section which remains erect and coplanar with the front display panel after the accessory is applied to a cap strap, which gives the image of a front display panel custom cut in the shape of a design indicia.
