Destructible privacy label
View Patent ↗A destructible privacy label includes a sheet-like member having an upper surface and an adhesive lower surface. The upper surface is adapted for printing indicia thereon. The sheet-like member includes two segments conjoined about a separation line which defines adjacent segment edges. Each segment is separable from the other along the separation line. Removing one of the segments from the other renders indicia printed on the sheet-like member upper surface illegible.
1. A destructible privacy label comprising:
a first sheet-like member having an upper surface and an adhesive lower surface;
said upper surface adapted for printing indicia thereon;
said first sheet-like member comprising a single layer including two segments conjoined about a separation line that defines adjacent segment edges;
said two segments together define the printed indicia area;
each segment being separable from the other along the separation line;
one segment of said first sheet-like member has a permanent adhesive on said adhesive lower surface and the other segment is removable;
said separation line extending from one edge of said first sheet-like member to another edge of said first sheet-like member; and
a second sheet-like member having an upper surface and an adhesive lower surface, said upper surface is siliconized and releasably directly contacting said first sheet-like member adhesive lower surface;
wherein removing one of said segments from the other renders said indicia printed on said first sheet-like member upper surface illegible of said destructible privacy label.
2. The destructible privacy label of claim 1 , wherein said separation line is sinusoidal.
3. The destructible privacy label of claim 1 , wherein said separation line is a cut line.
4. The destructible privacy label of claim 1 , further comprising:
a removable release liner contacting said second sheet-like member adhesive lower surface.
5. The destructible privacy label of claim 4 , wherein the surface of said release liner contacting said second sheet-like member adhesive lower surface is siliconized.
6. A destructible privacy label comprising:
a first sheet-like member including a single layer having an upper surface and an adhesive lower surface;
said upper surface adapted for printing indicia thereon;
said first sheet-like member comprising a plurality of remainder segments; said plurality of segments together define the printed indicia area;
said first sheet-like member further comprising at least one removable segment that is separable from said remainder segments at least one remainder segment of said first sheet-like member has a permanent adhesive on said adhesive lower surface; and
a second sheet-like member having an upper surface and an adhesive lower surface, said upper surface is siliconized and releasably directly contacting said first sheet-like member adhesive lower surface;
wherein removing said removable segment from said remainder segments renders said indicia printed on said first sheet-like member upper surface illegible of said destructible privacy label.
7. The destructible privacy label of claim 6 , wherein at least one of said remainder segments has a two-dimensional shape chosen from a group of circles, squares, diamonds, octagons, dagger shapes, saw tooth shapes, and island shapes.
8. The destructible privacy label of claim 6 , further comprising:
a removable release liner contacting said second sheet-like member adhesive lower surface.
