- Cover 10 includes a sheet 22 preferably constructed of an elongated, generally rectangular terry cloth fabric member.
- sheet 22 may also be constructed of any other material providing comfort and convenience to the user, such as cotton, MicroCotton®, zero-twisted cotton, or other similar fabrics.
- Sheet 22 is of sufficient length to extend the full length of the pad 12 , down across the pad ends 18 a, 20 a, and back under the pad 12 at the ends 18 a, 20 a, regardless of the thickness of the pad 12 .
- the distance that the cover extends back under the pad 12 may vary, but preferably should be at least 4-6 inches for the thickest pads. Obviously if the pad is less thick, the distance the cover extends beneath the pad will increase by the difference in the thickness.
- the shape of the sheet 22 need not be limited to a generally rectangular shape, so long as it is of sufficient dimensions to cover the pad as described in the preceding sentence.
- Sheet 22 has a head portion 24 , a foot portion 26 , and an intermediate portion 28 extending between the head and foot portions 24 , 26 .
- Head portion 24 includes an extension 24 a and foot portion 26 includes an extension of 26 a.
- the portions 24 , 26 , 28 preferably comprise a unitary member, but alternatively the portions 24 , 26 may also be separate members attached to opposed ends of intermediate portion 28 by such means as stitching.
- Sheet 22 also has a top surface 30 , a bottom surface 32 , sides 22 a, 22 b, and opposing ends 22 c, 22 d.

- the fasteners are shown as straps, however, as will be described in detail, the fasteners may take other forms as well.
- the fasteners may be constructed from 5 ⁇ 8-inch wide webbing. The distance between and the length of the fastening straps making up the first and second sets of fasteners on each side of the sheet are sufficient to allow for attachment to each other regardless of the thickness of the pad 12 .
- the fastener members 34 a - d and 36 a - d should be so positioned along the edge of sheet 22 that tension will always be applied to head portion 24 and foot portion 26 to resist the normal tendency for these portions to move toward each other as a result of a person lounging thereon. By doing so, the first and second fastener members will be pulled toward each other to remove slack or folds. To accomplish this, the point of attachment of the strap portion 34 d to the extension 26 a should always be closer to the end of pad 12 than the point of attachment of strap portion 36 d to the foot portion 26 .
- the distance between the straps would preferably be twenty-eight inches (ten inches from strap 34 to the end of the pad 18 a, four inches for the median pad thickness, and fourteen inches from the end of the pad to strap 36 ).
- This spacing maintains longitudinal tension on surface 28 , as well as tension on portions 26 , and 28 thereby holding the cover taut. This concept is demonstrated in FIG. 5 a - 5 c with respect to pads of different thickness.

Abstract
A cover is provided for a chaise lounge pad that is so constructed as to fit pads of varying thicknesses.
Description
- 1. Technical Field
- The present invention generally relates to lounge chairs and more specifically to covers for lounge chair cushions (used synonymously herein with the term “pads”).
- 2. Related Art
- Today, lounge chairs are available in two basic designs. These designs are driven by consumer preference and the market for a particular lounge chair. First, retail shops near beach communities may offer chairs of the very popular, less expensive plastic or metal-framed type that have plastic ribbons, or other material for support. Second, high-end hotels and resorts provide more expensive chaise lounges made of a wood frame, often teak, with a pad thereon to comfort their guests.
- As noted, the latter type chaise lounge includes a pad, or cushion, for comfort. There are many types, shapes and material characteristics of pads. Pads are comprised of foam or a fibrous batting, or a combination of each. These pads not only vary slightly in length, they vary considerably in thickness (for example, from two to six inches). Upholstered with plastic or woven materials designed to endure the elements, these pads alone do not create the surface comfort high-end hotels and resorts desire for its guests. Thus, guests will often place towels over the pads to aid in comfort. In addition, users may find it desirable to keep personal belongs within quick reach. Towels alone will not serve this need. Some hotel and resorts may have several locations that require the chaise lounges described above. Different resorts, and even different locations at the same resort may use chaise lounges with pads of varying thicknesses to accommodate the hotels' needs.
- Various lounge chair cover designs exist but these designs all secure the cover directly to the lounge chair. Most attempts are designed for a specific type of tri-fold lounge chair, none addressing varying thicknesses of lounge chair pads. One example, taught in U.S. Pat. No. 4,553,785 to Duke, Jr. et al., uses a pocket, formed by folding a fabric panel and joining the edges with a hem, placed over and surrounding the opposed end portions of a tri-fold lounge chair frame. Such a pocket construction, however, cannot accommodate lounge chair frames or pads that are larger than the size of the pocket. Conversely, the pocket may be too large for another type of lounge chair, thus providing an improper fit and poor visual presentation. Another construction, such as that taught in U.S. Pat. No. 5,275,463 to Rocha and U.S. Pat. No. 6,626,491 to Blome et al., uses an elastic hem, incorporated into the edge of the fabric panel, which allows the fabric panel corners of the cover to be stretched over and to surround the top edge of a tri-fold lounge chair frame. Again, such a construction is subject to the same limitations discussed above with respect to predetermined pocket sizes.
- Some attempts have been made to use means other than a pocket to secure the cover to the lower (foot) end of a lounge chair frame. For instance, the aforementioned patent to Rocha teaches the use of a pair of Velcro straps extending longitudinally from the foot edge of the cover, those straps being engageable with mating longitudinal Velcro strips affixed to the bottom surface of the cover. However, the cover disclosed in that patent is designed for the tri-fold lounge chairs of the type previously described. There is simply no teaching of an adjustable pad cover for the high-end, wood-framed, padded chaise lounge chairs.
- None of the foregoing covers are targeted toward covering the lounge chair pads alone, as all involve direct attachment to the tri-fold type metallic lounge chair frames. As such, none have achieved or even recognized the desired objectives of providing a flexible and convenient means of securely covering chaise lounge chair pads having varying thicknesses.
- The present invention, therefore, for the first time recognized and addresses the problem of providing a single chaise lounge cover that will fit pads which may vary as much as 2-6 inches in thickness. Toward this end and according to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a cover formed by a generally rectangular fabric sheet of sufficient length to cover the pad with extensions at one or both ends that extend around and back under the pad several inches. A fastening device that is adjustable in length then connects the adjacent sides of the sheet and extension. The fastening device is so constructed and arranged as to connect the adjacent sides of the sheet and extension and retain the sheet on the pad regardless of the thickness of the pad.
- According to another aspect of the invention, the fastener devices are so arranged and/or positioned along the sides of the sheet that, when assembled on the pad, tension will always be applied to maintain the cover taut to minimize slack and folds which otherwise tend to occur.
- In a preferred embodiment, the fastener device is a pair of cooperating straps, one extending laterally from the sheet adjacent the foot or head portions and the other extending laterally from the adjacent corresponding extension. The cooperating straps are connected by a clip or buckle, and at least one of the straps in adjustable in length. Alternatively, the straps could be connectable by a hook and loop fabric type fastener (Velcro®) which included fastening areas of sufficient length as to make the effective length of the fastener device adjustable. Even further, the fastening device could be a pair of cooperating cords that tie together.
- In another embodiment, the sheet is provided with a plurality of spaced slits or openings along each side of the foot and/or head portion, similar to buttonholes. A cord is secured at one end to the edge of the corresponding extension. Some type of connector element such as a T-bar or button is attached to the free end of the cord, whereby the connector element, when extended through the appropriate opening above, completes the connection of the extension to the sheet to retain the sheet on the pad.
- According to another aspect of the invention, there is provided a padded chaise lounge which includes a frame having a seat/foot member and an adjustable back/head member, a pad removably placed on the frame and having length and width dimensions substantially the same as the combined seat/foot member and back/head member, and a cover as described in the preceding paragraphs.
- Other aspects, features, and details of embodiments of the present invention can be more completely understood by reference to the following detailed description of preferred embodiments, taken in conjunction with the drawings figures and from the appended claims.
- According to common practice, the various features of the drawings discussed below are not necessarily drawn to scale. Dimensions of various features and elements in the drawings may be expanded or reduced to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the invention.

FIGS. 1-3 , illustrates acover 10 constructed in accordance with a first embodiment.FIG. 1 shows the positional relationship between thecover 10, thechaise lounge pad 12, and a conventionalchaise lounge frame 13 having a seat/foot portion 14 and an adjustable back/head portion 16.Pad 12 removably rests on and substantially covers the seat/foot and back/head portions frame 13.Pad 12 has anupper portion 18 superposed upon the back/head portion 16 when in use, theupper portion 18 terminating in an upper pad end 18 a, and alower portion 20 superposed upon the seat/foot portion 14 when in use, thelower portion 20 terminating in alower pad end 20 a -
Cover 10 includes asheet 22 preferably constructed of an elongated, generally rectangular terry cloth fabric member. However,sheet 22 may also be constructed of any other material providing comfort and convenience to the user, such as cotton, MicroCotton®, zero-twisted cotton, or other similar fabrics.Sheet 22 is of sufficient length to extend the full length of thepad 12, down across the pad ends 18 a, 20 a, and back under thepad 12 at theends pad 12. The distance that the cover extends back under thepad 12 may vary, but preferably should be at least 4-6 inches for the thickest pads. Obviously if the pad is less thick, the distance the cover extends beneath the pad will increase by the difference in the thickness. The shape of thesheet 22 need not be limited to a generally rectangular shape, so long as it is of sufficient dimensions to cover the pad as described in the preceding sentence. -
Sheet 22 has ahead portion 24, afoot portion 26, and anintermediate portion 28 extending between the head andfoot portions Head portion 24 includes anextension 24 a andfoot portion 26 includes an extension of 26 a. Theportions portions intermediate portion 28 by such means as stitching.Sheet 22 also has atop surface 30, abottom surface 32, sides 22 a, 22 b, and opposing ends 22 c, 22 d. - Looking at a plurality of fastener devices each formed of a first fastener member and a second fastener member are illustrated.
First fastener members sides head extensions Second fastener members first fastener members second fastener members 36 c, 36 d are spaced longitudinally fromfirst fastener members 34 c, 34 d, respectively. Second fastener members 36 a-d also extend laterally from thesides head portions sheet 22. In the embodiment shown inFIGS. 1-3 , the fasteners are shown as straps, however, as will be described in detail, the fasteners may take other forms as well. In a strap form, the fasteners may be constructed from ⅝-inch wide webbing. The distance between and the length of the fastening straps making up the first and second sets of fasteners on each side of the sheet are sufficient to allow for attachment to each other regardless of the thickness of thepad 12. Further, the fastener members 34 a-d and 36 a-d should be so positioned along the edge ofsheet 22 that tension will always be applied tohead portion 24 andfoot portion 26 to resist the normal tendency for these portions to move toward each other as a result of a person lounging thereon. By doing so, the first and second fastener members will be pulled toward each other to remove slack or folds. To accomplish this, the point of attachment of thestrap portion 34 d to theextension 26 a should always be closer to the end ofpad 12 than the point of attachment ofstrap portion 36 d to thefoot portion 26. For example, if one wants the extension to wrap ten inches underneath the end of a pad of medium thickness (4 inches), the distance between the straps would preferably be twenty-eight inches (ten inches from strap 34 to the end of thepad 18 a, four inches for the median pad thickness, and fourteen inches from the end of the pad to strap 36). This spacing maintains longitudinal tension onsurface 28, as well as tension onportions FIG. 5 a-5 c with respect to pads of different thickness. -
Straps head portion 24, to hold thesheet 22 onto theupper end 18 a of thepad 12. Similarly, straps 34 c, 36 c are connectable to one another, and straps 34 d, 36 d are connectable to one another, both pairs extending from the sheet sides atfoot portion 26, to hold thesheet 22 onto thelower end 20 a of thepad 12. The illustrated straps may each be attached at one of their respective ends to thesides sheet 22 in any manner sufficient to provide strength against separation from the sheet, such as by stitching. - The
cover 10 may be provided with additional features to increase comfort and convenience to the user. Particularly, if desired, ahead rest 38 may be attached to thetop surface 30 ofsheet 22 at thehead portion 24. Alternatively or in addition torest 38, another rest may be provided atfoot portion 26. As illustrated inFIGS. 1-3 , rest 38 may be formed as a pouch in which a pillow or cloth may be inserted, and it can be attached totop surface 30 by stitching proximate its upper edge 38 a. This permits the pillow to flip upward and out of the way should the user so desire. Also attached to top surface 30 apersonal electronics pocket 40 may be placed in which the user may securely hold portable electronic devices, including but not limited to cellphones, personal digital assistants (“PDAs”), and music players such as those marketed by Apple, Inc. under the trademark ipod®.Pocket 40 is preferably laterally and longitudinally spaced fromrest 38 to maximize access and be close enough to the user's head to allow for the use of earphones. Thecover 10 may be additionally be provided with first and second utility pockets 42, 44, respectively, to hold such personal items as books, keys, sunglasses, suntan lotion, and a beverage container. One of said pockets may be specifically dimensioned to securely hold a magazine without folding. In order to prevent the utility pockets 42, 44 from sliding laterally when a heavy object such as a book or magazine is inserted, ties ______ are secured to the rear for selectively attaching the pocket to the side rail of the lounge chair. - The
FIG. 2 shows thecover 10 in use, that is, secured to pad 12 when thepad 12 rests upon thelounge chair frame 13. In this position, theextension 24 a (not invisible) fromhead portion 24 is shown wrapped around upper pad end 18 a, andextension 26 a (not invisible) fromfoot portion 26 is shown wrapped aroundlower pad end 20 a. As described hereinabove, thesheet 22 extends under thepad 12 several inches at the upper and lower pad ends. Thus, in the position shown, oneextension 24 a of thesheet 22 resides between the padupper portion 18 and the adjustable back/head portion 16 offrame 13, while anotherextension 26 a of thesheet 22 resides between thelower pad portion 20 and the seat/foot portion 14 offrame 13.Releasable securing devices fasteners cover 10 can be secured to pads of varying thicknesses. SeeFIGS. 5A-C . Also shown inFIG. 2 , the second utility pocket set 44 is shown hanging downwardly over the side of thelounge chair frame 13. Likewise, though not shown inFIG. 2 , first utility pocket set 42 hangs downwardly over the opposite side of thelounge chair frame 13. In this manner, the user is provided with convenient access to a variety of personal items that can be held within the pockets ofsets - The releasable securing
devices FIG. 2 may take several forms. For example, with reference to releasable securingdevice 48 as a representative securing device (meaning that the releasable securing devices for the other fasteners of thecover 10 are constructed identically to releasable securing device 48).FIG. 4A shows one example of the releasable securingdevice 48 schematically shown inFIG. 2 . Here, afemale clip member 56 is fixed to an end of second fastener (strap) 36 b opposite its attachment to side edge 22 b ofsheet 22. An attachment assembly, which may be used to connect the first fastener (strap) to theside edge 22 b, comprises an attaching strap 62 directly attached to side edge 22 b at one end and at another end to oneleg 64 a of aring 64. An end of thefirst strap 34 b is looped around theother leg 64 b ofring 64 and is joined to alength adjustment buckle 60. In this manner, the effective length of first fastener (strap) 34 b may be adjusted according to the thickness ofpad 12. Fixed to an end offirst strap 34 b oppositering 64 is amale clip member 58, theprongs 58 a of which engage thefemale clip member 56 in a manner known in the art. Such engagement comprises the releasable securingdevice 48′ associated with this particular embodiment. It is not material to the invention as to which strap is provided with the adjustment configuration, nor as to which strap is provided a male or female clip member. -
FIG. 4B shows portions of the first andsecond fasteners hook members 52, and one end of second fastener (strap) 36 b has a region ofloop members 54, such that releasable securingdevice 48 in this instance comprises the junction ofregions pad 12 when in the position shown inFIG. 2 . Such adjustment allows thecover 10 to be adjusted to pads of varying thicknesses. It is noted briefly that it is not material to the invention as to which strap bears which type of region, such that it need not be restricted to the particular arrangement shown inFIG. 4B . -
FIGS. 4C and 6 show acover 210 constructed in accordance with a second embodiment, similar to that shown inFIGS. 1-3 , except showing a different type of releasable securing device provided on the ends of the straps, and a plurality of openings formed along each side of the sheet at the head portion and front portion. Straps in the form ofcords side sheet 222 proximate opposing ends 222 c, 222 d of the sheet. Respectively attached to the distal, free ends of thecords bar members sheet 222 and are longitudinally positioned along each side of thehead portion 224 and thefoot portion 226 for receiving thecords button members -
FIG. 6 shows a plan view of the third embodiment. The ends of the illustratedcords bars cover 210 to thepad 12. The user may select which openings receive thecords FIG. 4C ). For example, button or T-bar member 88 is shown as having been pressed through opening 96 b. T-bar member 88 may be rotated after such passing if doing so provides a further securing against the button being unintentionally pulled back throughopening 96 b when in use. For instance, ifmember 88 is cylindrical in shape andopening 96 b is a slit, rotating themember 88 so that the axis of the cylinder shape is substantially perpendicular to the lengthwise axis of theslit 96 b would serve to resist disengagement of themember 88 from that opening. To facilitate a snug attachment ofcover 210 onpad 12, the cords themselves may either be adjustable in length or may be constructed of an elastic material. - The foregoing description of the invention illustrates and describes the present invention. Additionally, the disclosure shows and describes only selected embodiments of the invention, but it is to be understood that the invention is capable of use in various other combinations, modifications, and environments and is capable of changes or modifications within the scope of the inventive concept as expressed herein, commensurate with the above teachings, and/or within the skill or knowledge of the relevant art.
