Abstract:
A sticky loop for attaching any two leaves together, formed from an adhesive strip of foldable material, said sticky loop having perimeter features comprising solely three panels of predetermined widths, said sticky loop having a front face side and a back face side, said three panels comprising a first fold over panel, a base panel, and a second fold over panel, said three panels each having a common edge one with respect to the next, wherein said first fold over panel has a predefined width W1 and common edge with said base panel, said base panel has a predefined width WB and a common edge with said second fold over panel, and said second fold over panel has a predefined width W2, said sticky loop having a pressure sensitive adhesive on solely one of either said face side or said back side, where said each of said common edges is a fold hint structure comprising a hinge formed as a perforated line having a series of perforations and land areas permitting said each common edge to act as a hinge and to fold without tearing and where said predefined width of said base panel, WB, is substantially equal to or wider than said each of said predefined widths of said first fold over panel W1, and said second fold over panel, W2, and where the sum of the predefined widths of said first fold over panel and said second fold over panel W1 plus W2 is greater than the predefined width of said base panel, WB, for permitting said first fold over panel and said second fold over panel to overlap when folded over said fold hint onto said base panel, so that when said first fold over panel and said second fold over panel are folded one onto the other over said base panel in such manner as to place said one side of adhesive on the outer side of said folds, said first fold over panel and said second fold over panel adhere one to the other and thereby form a continuous flat sticky loop of material having said adhesive on said one side appear on the entire outer surface of said looped structure so formed, for forming a two sided sticky object for placing between any two leaves for attaching any such two leaves one to the other.
