  • Hexagonal pad
    Patent number: 5183297
    Abstract: A pad of regular hexagonal flexible sheets each having a front surface adapted to be written on, and a coating of repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive over a portion of its rear surface releasably adhering the sheet to an underlying sheet in the pad. Information can be written on the front of the sheets, and the individual written on sheets can be adhered to a planar surface in side by side relationship with edge portions of up to six adjacent sheets in contact to represent relationships between the information on the sheets.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 13, 1991
    Date of Patent: February 2, 1993
    Assignee: Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing
    Inventors: Douglas P. Bodziak, Steven L. Grovender, Ray A. Hunder, Robert P. Molenda, Steven P. Roth
