Abstract
A hub is formed with a lower extent having a first diameter, an intermediate extent having a second diameter, and a circular upper extent having a third diameter. A circular disk has an upper surface with indicia, a lower surface with an attachment component, and a hole with a diameter essentially equal to the second diameter for being received by the hub. A pointer has a first free end and a first securement ring having an interior diameter essentially equal to the third diameter and an exterior diameter essentially equal to the second diameter. The first securement ring is in sliding contact with the intermediate extent of the hub.
Claims1
An event reminder system (10) for reminding a user of the time for an upcoming event, the system comprising, in combination:
- a cylindrical hub (14) formed with a circular lower extent (16) having a first diameter and with a circular intermediate extent (18) having a second diameter less than the first diameter and with a circular upper extent (20) having a third diameter less than the second diameter, a downwardly extending cylindrical hole (22) formed in the upper extent of the hub, the hub and the hole having a common central axis;
- a circular disk (26) having an upper surface with indicia (28) and having a lower surface with a securement component (30), the circular disk having a hole (32) with a diameter essentially equal to the second diameter for being received by the hub with the lower surface of the disk on the lower extent of the hub, the indicia including days and months and time;
- a rectangular backing sheet (36) removably receiving the disk with the securement component securing the disk to the sheet until separated by a user, the securement component then adapted to temporarily secure the disk to a recipient surface;
- a first pointer (40) having a first exterior free end (42) and a first interior securement ring (44) separated by a first length, the first interior securement ring having an interior diameter essentially equal to the third diameter and having an exterior diameter essentially equal to the second diameter, the first interior securement ring being in sliding contact with the intermediate extent of the hub, the first interior securement ring having a first radial slot (46) to facilitate positioning and rotation of the first pointer to point to a time;
- a second pointer (50) having a second exterior free end (52) and a second interior securement ring (54) separated by a second length less than the first length, the second interior securement ring having an interior diameter essentially equal to the third diameter and an exterior diameter essentially equal to the second diameter, the second securement ring having a downwardly extending cylindrical projection (56) in sliding contact with the first pointer, the second securement ring having a second radial slot (58) to facilitate positioning and rotation of the second pointer to point at a month;
- a third pointer (62) having a third exterior free end (64) and a third interior securement ring (66) separated by a third length less than the second length, the third interior securement ring having an interior diameter essentially equal to the third diameter and an exterior diameter essentially equal to the second diameter, the third securement ring having a downwardly extending cylindrical projection (68) in sliding contact with the second pointer, the third securement ring having a third radial slot (70) to facilitate positioning and rotation of the third pointer to point at a day;
- and
- a keeper pin (74) with a cylindrical lower section (76) frictionally received in the cylindrical hole of the hub, the keeper pin having an enlarged shoulder (78) with a diameter essentially equal to the exterior diameter of the third securement ring.
