Definitions

  • the invention relates to a duvet cover according to the preamble of Claim 1.
  • duvet cover easily in a household washing machine could be washed. This is particularly important for People who are allergic to dust mites. By Regular washing can cause the allergy-causing particles (Allergens) are eliminated.
  • the conventional duvet blankets are too big to be washed in a household washing machine to be able to. For cleaning, they must be in an appropriate manner equipped laundry.
  • duvet cover a double bed if necessary in two smaller duvet covers could split up a single bed or if you could enlarge a small duvet cover of a single bed could use them for a queen bed leaves.
  • the conventional duvet blankets cannot go without further ado be enlarged or reduced.
  • a duvet cover should be one high thermal insulation strength, one for spring and autumn medium heat insulation and low for summer Have thermal insulation strength.
  • the thermal insulation strength more conventional Duvet covers cannot be changed. That means but that one for each of the three temperature periods Your own duvet cover needs to always have an optimal temperature in bed to be able to achieve.
  • duvet cover made of put together at least two connectable single duvets is.
  • the heat insulation strength can be thereby Tailor double beds to the needs of the individual sleeper.
  • Single-person duvets are too big to be used in household washing machines to be able to be washed.
  • This duvet cover has also the disadvantage that the edges on which the Single duvets are connected, overlap and this creates thick, uncomfortable beads.
  • Duvet covers have also been described, in which both Problem of changeable heat insulation thickness as well Problem of washability in household washing machines can be solved could.
  • these duvet blankets are essential with others Disadvantages.
  • blankets have the advantage that the pillows before washing can be removed from the shell. You can then use the pillows and the sleeves easily separated in a household washing machine to wash. Can be used for the different pillows differently insulating filling material can be used.
  • a major disadvantage of these blankets is that the Body of insulation material (down, feathers, synthetic Materials) is separated by two layers of fabric (cover, pillow) and thereby the moisture exchange is hindered. Moreover it has been shown in practice that the pillow in the cover slip and thereby unpleasant bumps and cold spots arise.
  • the invention relates there a down or feather quilt, which consists of several individual, interchangeable pockets. All Bags are similar in shape and size. Every bag comes with a connecting device, such as zippers, Buttons, snaps, etc. framed.
  • the individual pockets are not only about their long sides but also about their Cross sides joined together. That means a great many Seams are formed and four pocket corners within the ceiling can meet each other. That is one of the essential disadvantages of this blanket, because the many both seams running lengthways and across the ceiling form many uninsulated areas through which the heat can escape.
  • a quilt for double beds which has a zipper or similar on one long side has elastic connection, which is a detachable connection enables.
  • On the top and bottom of the zipper tabs are provided which cover this.
  • execution has the disadvantage that the connection through the tabs colliding on opposite sides has a certain stiffness and angled Condition the zipper connection is not through the tabs is covered. This allows a user's body to cover the ceiling come into contact with the cool metal, which is uncomfortable.
  • the blanket does not have the desired one for a duvet Flexibility on.
  • the invention now has the task of a duvet cover find which is washed in an ordinary household washing machine can be whose size can be changed and whose thermal insulation strength depends on the needs of the individual Lets sleepers adjust.
  • the duvet cover should also no uninsulated seams.
  • the individual longitudinal tracks 2 extend over the entire Length of the duvet cover 1.
  • the length of the longitudinal panels 2 corresponds So the length of the duvet cover 1. When using cross panels these extend across the entire width of the duvet cover 1.
  • the length of the cross panels here corresponds to the width of the duvet cover 1.
  • a longitudinal track 2 is about 40 to 50 centimeters wide. By Coupling three or four longitudinal tracks 2 you get one Duvet cover 1 for a single bed. One adds an additional one Longitudinal web 2, a duvet cover 1 is created for a French one Bed. The width of the duvet cover 1 can be expanded as required will.
  • the length of the cross tracks must be can be selected according to the bed width.
  • the length of the duvet cover 1 is determined by the number of cross tracks that are connected to each other be coupled.
  • connecting devices 3 are Example preferably made of plastic zippers, Press studs, laces to tie, buttons with buttonholes, Velcro or other provided. There must be zippers be used where both sides of the zipper can be completely separated from each other.
  • buttons are selected, a buttonhole tape is attached to one longitudinal edge 6 sewn on and on the other longitudinal edge 6 a series of Buttons fastened.
  • the longitudinal edges 6 of two adjacent longitudinal or transverse tracks 2 can either with a single connecting device 3 (see. Fig. 4 to 7) or with two arranged parallel to each other Connection devices 3 are attached to each other (see Figs. 8 to 10). In the latter case, the two are Connecting devices 3 through a band-shaped web 12 connected with each other.
  • the seams 4 are in accordance with the invention Insulation rags or beads 5 insulated.
  • Insulation rags or beads 5 insulated.
  • For training and arrangement of the isolation tabs 5 are different options intended.
  • each longitudinal or Transverse web 2 an annular insulation tab 5 be attached, which the entire connecting device 3 (see. Fig. 4, 5 and 7) framed. It runs from the first transverse edge 7 of the longitudinal or Cross track 2 from above the connecting device 3 along the longitudinal edge 6 to the other transverse edge 7 of the longitudinal or Transverse path 2. There it is bent through 180 ° and thereby forms a kind of pocket 8. It then runs below the connecting device 3 further along the longitudinal edge 6 back to first transverse edge 7 and is also bent there by 180 °. Will two parallel connecting devices 3 used, framed the isolation tab 5 including both connecting devices 3 the web 12 (see FIGS. 8 and 9).
  • An annular insulation tab 5 is preferably made of a single elongated fabric 13 manufactured.
  • the length of this Fabric web 13 corresponds approximately to the length of the longitudinal or transverse web 2 a duvet cover 1.
  • the fabric web 13 is in its longitudinal direction folded several times so that two closed cavities are formed, which the interiors 9 of the isolation tab 5 correspond.
  • the folded panel 13 is at least three seams 14, 15 on the longitudinal or transverse web 2 of a duvet cover 1 sewn on. There are three possible ones in FIGS. 11 to 13 Fold types of a fabric web 13 shown.

  • This side surface 19 is curved inwards.
  • the fabric web 13 is sewn together at its longitudinal edges 23. Their cross section is therefore ring-shaped.
  • the longitudinal or Cross web 2 is formed by a piece of fabric 16, which in its middle is folded lengthways. The two free longitudinal edges 17 of this piece of fabric 16 are thus one above the other. you will be on the fabric web 13 above or below the inner area 18 sewn.
  • These two outer seams 14 consequently delimit the side surface 19 of the longitudinal or transverse track 2.
  • the outer Area 20 of the fabric web 13 is longitudinally like this in the middle folded inside so that the fold seam 21 is the longitudinal bisector of the inner region 18 touched. This will two closed cavities, the interiors 9 of the isolation tab 5, shaped. Forms between the two interiors 9 a space 22 which is closed against the inside and against is open to the outside. In this space 22 is one Half of a zipper 3 arranged such that its Look teeth outwards and its inner edge the fold seam 21 of the outer region 20 touched. Because at this point the can touch the outer and the inner region of the fabric web 13 the zipper 3 and the inner and outer area the fabric web 13 attached to each other with a single longitudinal seam 15 will.
  • the side surface 19 a longitudinal or transverse path 2 through the piece of fabric 16 from which the remaining lane 2 is formed.
  • the two longitudinal edges 17 of the piece of fabric 16 are turned inside and with the longitudinal edges 23 of fabric 13 sewn together.
  • the outer area 20 of the fabric web 13 is longitudinally inward in the middle folded that the folding seam 21 with the longitudinal edges 17, 23 of the Piece of fabric 16 or the panel 13 is flush.
  • This will also two closed isolation flap interiors 9, and an intermediate space 22 is formed between them, which towards the outside open and closed towards the inside.
  • This space 21 is half of a zipper 3 arranged that the zipper teeth look outwards and its inner edge the fold seam 21 of the outer region 20 touched.
  • the fold seam 21 of the outer region 20, the inner edge the zipper 3 and the longitudinal edges 17, 23 of the Piece of fabric 16 or the fabric 13 are by a single Seam 15 fixed together.
  • the inner region is 18 the fabric web 13 folded longitudinally in its middle.
