Description

TITRE DE L'INVENTION: TENDEUR DE COUETTE
La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant le maintien de la couette en place sur le lit afin d'éviter de se découvrir pendant le sommeil, et toutes couettes/housses de couette équipées de ce dispositif.
TITLE OF THE INVENTION: DUVET TENSIONER
The present invention relates to a device allowing the quilt to be held in place on the bed in order to avoid being uncovered during sleep, and all quilts / duvet covers equipped with this device.

Habituellement, certaines housses de couette équipées d'un rabat au niveau des pieds peuvent être partiellement bordées sous le matelas, mais le maintien de la couette reste limité, et il est fréquent qu'un enfant se découvre au moins les épaules, ou bien, dans un couple, qu'une personne découvre l'autre pendant le sommeil. Usually, some duvet covers equipped with a flap at the level of the feet can be partially bordered under the mattress, but the maintenance of the duvet remains limited, and it is frequent that a child uncovers at least the shoulders, or, in a couple, that one person discovers the other during sleep.

Pour les enfants, il existe aussi un systeme de fixecouverture qui malheureusement est assez contraignant pour la ménagère ; ce système se compose de deux pinces destinees à être accrochées de chaque côté de la couette et reliées entre elles par une sangle réglable en longueur traversant le lit sous le matelas ; cette sangle étant libre de tout point d'ancrage, elle risque de se déplacer longitudinalement et/ou latéralement pendant le sommeil, sauf si la sangle est fortement tendue nuisant ainsi au confort ; la ménagere est donc obligée de repositionner la sangle régulièrement sous le matelas. For children, there is also a cover fixing system which unfortunately is quite restrictive for the housewife; this system consists of two clips intended to be hung on each side of the duvet and connected together by a strap adjustable in length crossing the bed under the mattress; this strap being free from any anchoring point, it risks moving longitudinally and / or laterally during sleep, unless the strap is tightened, thereby adversely affecting comfort; the housewife is therefore obliged to reposition the strap regularly under the mattress.

Pour remédier à ces inconvenients, on imagine sans peine, qu'il suffit de concevoir des tendeurs de couette indépendants pour maintenir chaque côte de la couette de manière indépendante. S'il est aisé de concevoir un tendeur utilisant un point d'ancrage quelconque sur le côté du lit, du matelas, ou du sommier, il est en revanche plus difficile de le concevoir de maniere telle qu'il puisse être adapte facilement et efficacement par la ménagere sur pratiquement tout type de lit, tout en présentant des caractéristiques offrant le confort d'utilisation nécessaire pour un usage quotidien rationnel par des enfants comme par des adultes. To remedy these drawbacks, it is easy to imagine that it is enough to design independent quilt stretchers to maintain each side of the quilt independently. While it is easy to design a tensioner using any anchor point on the side of the bed, mattress, or box spring, it is however more difficult to design it in such a way that it can be adapted easily and effectively by the housewife on practically any type of bed, while presenting characteristics offering the comfort of use necessary for a rational daily use by children as by adults.

Le dispositif selon l'invention comporte, selon une première caracteristique, un moyen de calage globalement plat destiné à être placé sous un pied de lit ou sous le rebord inférieur du lit si ce dernier ne dispose pas de pied, relié par un moyen de liaison variable en longueur, à un moyen d'attache rapide à la couette ou à la housse de couette. The device according to the invention comprises, according to a first characteristic, a generally flat wedging means intended to be placed under a footboard or under the lower edge of the bed if the latter does not have a foot, connected by a connecting means variable in length, with a quick attachment to the duvet or the duvet cover.

Ainsi, deux dispositifs, selon l'invention, équipant chaque côte, droit et gauche, de la couette, et étant bien ancrés, calés, de chaque côté du lit, assurent un maintien efficace de la couette durant le sommeil, sans comprimer la personne au lit, mais en préservant les qualités de légèreté ainsi que la sensation de liberté que procure une couette libre de toute attache
Dans le cas ou un seul dispositif, selon l'invention, équipe chaque côté de la couette, ces dispositifs peuvent maintenir la couette au niveau des pieds de la personne uniquement, sans qu'il soit nécessaire, comme auparavant, de border l'extrémité de la couette sous le matelas.
Thus, two devices, according to the invention, equipping each side, right and left, of the duvet, and being well anchored, wedged, on each side of the bed, ensure effective maintenance of the duvet during sleep, without compressing the person in bed, but preserving the qualities of lightness as well as the feeling of freedom that a duvet free of all attachments
In the case where a single device, according to the invention, equips each side of the duvet, these devices can hold the duvet at the level of the person's feet only, without it being necessary, as before, to tuck the end of the duvet under the mattress.

Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation: - le moyen de calage peut être compressible, comporter une ou plusieurs excroissances, ou bien être réglable en épaisseur, afin de favoriser un calage efficace sous chaque pied de lit ou sous le rebord inférieur du lit, quelque soit la régularité de la surface du sol, - le moyen de liaison peut être reglable en longueur ou/et élastique, - le moyen d'attache rapide à la couette peut comporter une contre-partie fixée sur la couette ou sur sa housse (anneau, boucle...) ou bien être constitué d'une seule partie (ex: pince).According to particular embodiments: the wedging means can be compressible, comprise one or more protuberances, or else be adjustable in thickness, in order to promote effective wedging under each footboard or under the lower edge of the bed, whatever the regularity of the floor surface, - the connecting means can be adjustable in length and / or elastic, - the quick attachment means to the duvet can have a counterpart fixed on the duvet or on its cover (ring, loop ...) or be made up of a single part (ex: clamp).

Le dessin annexe represente, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, le dispositif selon l'invention. The accompanying drawing represents, by way of nonlimiting example, the device according to the invention.

En référence à ce dessin, le dispositif comporte un moyen de calage globalement plat (1), relié par une sangle (2) réglable en longueur, à une boucle d'attache rapide (3) dont la contre-partie (4) est fixée sur la couette ou housse de couette (5). La partie (3) de la boucle d'attache rapide permet l'ajustage de la longueur de la sangle (2). With reference to this drawing, the device comprises a generally flat wedging means (1), connected by a strap (2) adjustable in length, to a quick-attach loop (3) whose counterpart (4) is fixed. on the duvet or duvet cover (5). The part (3) of the quick-attach buckle allows the length of the strap (2) to be adjusted.

Pour une utilisation rationnelle de l'invention, la ménagère commence par glisser la partie plate (1) sous le pied (6) du lit afin d'assurer la fixité du dispositif ; il lui suffira ensuite de connecter ou déconnecter à souhait les parties (3) et (4) de la boucle d'attache rapide pour maintenir la couette ou la libérer. For a rational use of the invention, the housewife begins by sliding the flat part (1) under the foot (6) of the bed in order to ensure the fixity of the device; it will then suffice to connect or disconnect the parts (3) and (4) of the quick-attach loop as desired to hold the quilt or release it.

La ménagère aura prealablement ajusté la longueur de la sangle (2) en fonction de la hauteur du lit et du degre de tension de la couette désiré.  The housewife will have previously adjusted the length of the strap (2) according to the height of the bed and the degree of tension of the quilt desired.

Afin d'ameliorer encore le confort et permettre une plus grande aisance des mouvements sous la couette, le moyen de liaison (2) peut être élastique.In order to further improve comfort and allow greater ease of movement under the duvet, the connecting means (2) can be elastic.

Ainsi, la personne au lit peut aisément déconnecter ou connecter les parties (3) et (4) de la boucle sans même se lever du lit. Thus, the person in bed can easily disconnect or connect the parts (3) and (4) of the loop without even getting up from the bed.

Selon le présent exemple de réalisation, la contre-partie (4) du moyen d'attache rapide (3 & ) est cousue sur le bord de la couette ou housse de couette, au niveau de la couture périphérique, grâce à une sanglette (7), prise dans la couture lors de la confection. According to the present embodiment, the counterpart (4) of the quick attachment means (3 &) is sewn onto the edge of the duvet or duvet cover, at the peripheral seam, using a strap (7 ), caught in the seam when making.

La cale (1) peut, idéalement mais non limitativement pour l'invention, être réalisée, soit par découpage, à l'emportepiece, de plaques d'éthylene-vinyl-acétate d'une épaisseur approximative de dix millimètres, soit grâce à une opération de moulage par injection d'un polymère présentant des qualités équivalentes de résistance et de compressibilité. The wedge (1) can, ideally but not limited to the invention, be produced, either by cutting, with a die-cut, of ethylene-vinyl-acetate plates with a thickness of approximately ten millimeters, or by means of a injection molding operation of a polymer having equivalent qualities of resistance and compressibility.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulierement destiné au maintien des couettes.  The device according to the invention is particularly intended for retaining duvets.
