Abstract:
A self-illuminating patch to be worn on or in close proximity to a person. The patch has an exterior layer of phosphorescent material that becomes self-illuminating in the dark. The exterior phosphorescent layer has alpha numeric or other graphic indicia printed on it using ultraviolet curable ink. A removable backing layer is adhesively attached to the phosphorescent layer and is removed to expose an adhesive layer on the back of the phosphorescent layer. This allows the patch to be secured onto a person's clothing, backpack, or other item.

Claim (Index 1):
A self-illuminating patch comprising:\n a flexible first layer having an exterior surface and an interior surface, the exterior surface comprising a phosphorescent layer presented to the ambient environment, printed indicia on the exterior surface of the first layer which is visible from the ambient environment, an adhesive layer applied to the interior surface of the first layer, a protective cover layer applied over the adhesive layer on the interior surface of the first layer, whereby when the protective layer is removed from the adhesive layer the patch can be affixed to an article so that the phosphorescent layer emits an image in the dark.
