Abstract
Abstract A planning aid is produced by the use of a transparent foil which is adhesive on one side, thus providing a surface for the adhesion thereto of planning elements and/or symbols having smooth surfaces, the foil being applied to a sheet containing a pictorial representation. The planning elements and/or symbols may themselves be of foil structure or of plastic-coated cardboard or the like. For the purpose of providing a permanent record of the juxtaposition of the planning elements and/or symbols to the pictorial representation, the surface with said elements and/or symbols adhering thereto may be photocopied.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
189 words
A planning aid in the form of an assembly comprising, in combination, a sheet of release paper having one surface provided with a pictorial display of an area in which planning objects are to be arranged, a flexible soft sheet of transparent plastic material adhesively secured to said one surface of said release paper sheet in overlying relationship with said display and having a smooth upper surface and being adhesively secured to said release paper sheet in a pressure sensitive relation so that said flexible soft sheet may be removed from said release sheet and selectively adhered to another sheet of release paper, a plurality of selectably detachably mounted plastic material having a smooth surface for permitting said elements to be detachably and removably mounted in selected positions on said smooth upper surface of said sheet of plastic material within the outline of said display to thereby symbolize objects to be disposed within the outline of said display, the smooth adjacent surfaces of said elements and said sheet of plastic material permitting the exclusion of air therebetween for providing adhesion to detachably retain said elements in the selected positions.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
189 words
A planning aid in the form of an assembly comprising, in combination, a sheet of release paper having one surface provided with a pictorial display of an area in which planning objects are to be arranged, a flexible soft sheet of transparent plastic material adhesively secured to said one surface of said release paper sheet in overlying relationship with said display and having a smooth upper surface and being adhesively secured to said release paper sheet in a pressure sensitive relation so that said flexible soft sheet may be removed from said release sheet and selectively adhered to another sheet of release paper, a plurality of selectably detachably mounted plastic material having a smooth surface for permitting said elements to be detachably and removably mounted in selected positions on said smooth upper surface of said sheet of plastic material within the outline of said display to thereby symbolize objects to be disposed within the outline of said display, the smooth adjacent surfaces of said elements and said sheet of plastic material permitting the exclusion of air therebetween for providing adhesion to detachably retain said elements in the selected positions.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
61 words
The assembly of claim 1, including an intermediate element interposed between said foil upper surface and said smooth surface of said planning elements, said intermediate element having a surface juxtaposed to said foil upper surface which is sufficiently smooth and soft for adhesive forces to be produced when said surface of said intermediate element is pressed against said foil upper surface.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
The assembly of claim 1, wherein at least one of said planning elements is in the form of a piece of plastic-coated cardboard or the like.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
197 words
A method of producing a planning aid in the form of an assembly comprising the steps of, providing a sheet of release paper having one surface provided with a pictorial display of an area in which planning objects are to be arranged, adhesively securing a flexible soft sheet of transparent plastic material having a smooth upper surface to said one surface of said release paper sheet in overlying relationship with said display and being adhesively secured to said release paper sheet in a pressure sensitive relation so that said flexible soft sheet may be removed from said release sheet and selectively adhered to another sheet of release paper, providing a plurality of selectably detachably mounted planning elements of flexible plastic material having a smooth surface and detachably and removably mounting said planning elements in selected positions on said smooth upper surface of said sheet of plastic material within the outline of said display to thereby symbolize objects to be disposed within the outline of said display, the smooth adjacent surfaces of said elements and said sheet of plastic material permitting the exclusion of air therebetween for providing adhesion to detachably retain said elements in the selected positions.
