Hat patch

Abstract

A patch for a hat includes a body with a multi-layer composition including a layer of woven material, an adhesive layer, and a removable backing. The patch includes a first notch and a second notch in the layers of material. The notches are aligned with each other and located centrally with respect to the patch to assist in aligning the patch with the crown of a hat.

1 . A patch, comprising:
 a plurality of layers, including:
 a layer of woven material; 
 an adhesive layer on the layer of woven material; and 
 a removable backing coupled to the adhesive; 
   a first notch in at least one of the plurality of layers; and   a second notch in at least one of the plurality of layers, wherein the second notch is aligned with the first notch.   
     
     
         2 . The patch of  claim 1  wherein the first notch and the second notch are located centrally with respect to a width of the patch. 
     
     
         3 . The patch of  claim 1  wherein each of the plurality of layers have the same size and shape. 
     
     
         4 . The patch of  claim 1  wherein the plurality of layers have a semicircular shape with a first, rectilinear side and a second, curved side. 
     
     
         5 . The patch of  claim 4  wherein the first notch is in the first, rectilinear side and the second notch is in the second, curved side. 
     
     
         6 . The patch of  claim 5 , further comprising:
 a first straight edge in the second, curved side; and   a second straight edge in the second, curved side perpendicular to the first straight edge, the second notch defined by the first straight edge and the second straight edge.   
     
     
         7 . The patch of  claim 4  wherein a length of the first side is less than a length of the second side. 
     
     
         8 . The patch of  claim 1  wherein a thickness of the layer of woven material is greater than a thickness of the adhesive layer. 
     
     
         9 . A patch, comprising:
 a body including a layer of woven material and an adhesive layer on the layer of woven material, the body having a first side and a second side opposite to the first side; and   a first notch in the first side of the body; and   a second notch in the second side of the body aligned with the first notch.   
     
     
         10 . The patch of  claim 9  further comprising:
 a removable backing on the adhesive layer. 
 
     
     
         11 . The patch of  claim 9  wherein the first notch and the second notch are located centrally relative to the body. 
     
     
         12 . The patch of  claim 9  wherein the body has a semi-circular shape with the first side being a straight rectilinear side and the second side being a curved side. 
     
     
         13 . The patch of  claim 9  wherein the adhesive layer has the same size and shape as the layer of woven material. 
     
     
         14 . The patch of  claim 9  wherein the first side of the body includes a first straight edge and a second straight edge perpendicular to the first straight edge, the first notch defined by the first straight edge and the second straight edge. 
     
     
         15 . The patch of  claim 9  wherein a length of the first side of the body is less than a length of the second side of the body. 
     
     
         16 . A cutting board, comprising:
 a body with a first surface having a plurality of repeating demarcations arranged in aligned rows and columns on the first surface, each of the demarcations including:
 a first, straight side; 
 a second, curved side; 
 a first rectilinear edge in the first, straight side; 
 a second rectilinear edge in the first, straight side and transverse to the first rectilinear edge to define a first notch; 
 a third rectilinear edge in the second, curved side; and 
 a fourth rectilinear edge in the second, curved side and transverse to the third rectilinear edge to define a second notch, 
   wherein the first notch and the second notch of each demarcation are located at a center of the first, straight side and the second, curved side, respectively.   
     
     
         17 . The cutting board of  claim 16  wherein the first notch and the second notch extend toward each other in the first, straight side and the second, curved side, respectively. 
     
     
         18 . The cutting board of  claim 16  wherein the first notch and the second notch each have a pointed tip.
