It is desirable to provide the futon 12A at a position symmetrical to the center line L of the futon so that the futon 12A can be easily stored in the pocket body 14 when folded.

In the state of the spread futon, it is bulky and difficult to carry. In addition, even if it is folded, it may take a place to get in the way. By providing the pocket body 14, when carrying, etc., the futon can be folded and stored in the pocket body 14, and furthermore, it can be used as a cushion body, so that it becomes an interior and does not interfere. Easy to handle.

Next, a case where the futon 12A is folded and stored in the pocket body 14 will be described (see FIG. 2).
The futon 12A is quilted as described later, and has a structure in which the futon 12A can be easily stored in the pocket body 14 by folding along the seam 18 formed in the vertical and horizontal directions of the quilt processing. Since the seam 18 is thinner than other parts, it is particularly easy to fold.

First, each of the long sides of the example shown in FIG.
The bedding 12A is folded from both sides along the longitudinal seams 18a formed at four positions, and the center line L and the long side 12b of the bedding are overlapped (FIG. 2).

Next, along the horizontal seam 18b formed at each of the three divided positions from the short sides on both sides, the futon 12A
Are sequentially folded from the lower side to the upper side as shown in FIG.

Finally, the pocket body 14 is turned over so that the folded futon 12A is wrapped around the pocket body 14 to form a cushion body (FIG. 2). At that time, a binding member 20 such as a snap button is provided near the opening 14a of the pocket body, and after the futon 12A is stored in the pocket body 14,
If the binding member 20 is bound, the shape of the cushion body can be further maintained.

If a cloth with a pattern or the like is used for the cloth inside the pocket body 14 (which becomes the outside when the cushion body is formed) or embroidery is applied, the design is improved, and the cushion is improved. The body can be used for decoration as an interior.

In the second embodiment of the present invention, the futon 12B is attached to each part of the body by providing the binding member 20 at a specific portion of the front side cloth and / or the back side cloth of the futon and binding the binding members 20 to each other. It can be worn (worn). FIG. 3 shows an example of the second embodiment.

FIG. 3 shows an example in which a plurality of snap buttons 20 are arranged on the futon 12B as binding members. Binding member 2
As 0, it is desirable that the futon 12B does not become a hindrance when used and is easily detached (removed). As a specific example of the binding member 20, in addition to the snap button,
Examples include buttons, hooks, hook-and-loop fasteners, slide fasteners, and the like, which are fastened with ordinary thread, and various configurations such as a configuration in which a string or the like is provided and tied and a configuration in which a magnet or the like is arranged can be applied. If the binding member 20 is in the way when the futon 12B is used, the binding member 20 itself may be configured to be removable when the futon 12B is used.

FIG. 3 shows an example of the futon which can be used as a shoulder pad by disposing a snap button. FIG.
Each snap button, AA ', BB', C-
When C ', DD', and EE 'are tied together, a shoulder pad with a collar portion 22 is formed.

FIG. 5 shows a use state where the futon is used as a shoulder pad. In the case of a shoulder rest, the collar wraps around the back of the neck, and the other part wraps around the upper body from the shoulder to the waist. Car driving, housework, office work, etc.)

In FIG. 3, as described later, the futon 12
B is quilted. The quilt processing of the collar portion 22 reduces the filling amount of the core than the other portions (or does not fill the core), and furthermore, the long side 12 of the futon 12B.
A stitch 18c parallel to b is provided, so that when worn, it is easy to turn over as a collar. By applying a quilt process different from the other portions as described above, it is desirable to improve the usability when used as a shoulder rest.

Although not shown, by changing the arrangement of the binding member 20, it can be used for various purposes other than a shoulder rest, such as a waist rest and a head width.

If the futon 12C has the configuration of FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the futon can be used in at least three types and the versatility is further improved (see FIG. 4).

As the core (stuffing) used in the futons having the above-mentioned constitutions, general-purpose products can be mentioned.
That is, specific examples include feathers, synthetic fibers, and natural fibers (cotton, wool, and the like).

Of the above, it is particularly desirable to use feathers and synthetic fibers. Light (bulky), hard to collapse, less bulky when folded (compactness, compressibility), less shrinkage when expanded, easy to maintain the original shape immediately (restoration) Nature and recovery). It is also excellent in heat retention.

As the feather, both waterfowl feather and land bird feather can be used. Further, any of down, feather, and fiber can be used.

As synthetic fibers, rayon, polynosic, cupra, acetate, triacetate, nylon, vinylon, vinylidene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, acryl, polypropylene, polyclar and the like can be used.

As the futon cloth (front side ground, back side ground, etc.) 16, all general-purpose cloths can be used. For example,
Hair, silk, cotton, hemp, rayon, cupra, acetate, nylon, vinylon, polyester, acrylic and the like can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Of the above, particularly polyester 100
%, Or a fabric containing the above-mentioned other fibers mainly composed of polyester is preferable because washing becomes easy. In particular, since the side of the futon is easily stained with sweat, dust and the like, it is a great advantage that washing can be easily performed at home.

In the case of the first embodiment, since the inside of the laundry is not sufficiently removed in the state of the cushion body,
It is desirable to perform in the state of the spread futon.

On the other hand, cotton, silk, and the like are used as the side lining of the futon from the viewpoint of feel. In addition, a far-infrared effect or the like can be given to the side ground 16 by other known methods to improve comfort.

The pocket 14 provided on the futon may be made of the same material as the side lining of the futon, or a different material.

In the futon of the present invention, the front side cloth 16a and the back side cloth 16b are desirably quilted through a center core. The main purpose of the quilting process (quilting process) is to prevent the core from being biased between the front fabric 16a and the back fabric 16b. Quilted seams 18
Since the movement of the core is hindered, the shape of the futon can be prevented from collapsing. Therefore, it is necessary to provide quilting seams at a pitch at which the center is not biased.

When the stitches are provided evenly in the vertical and horizontal directions as shown in the figure, the bias of the center can be prevented more, which is convenient for washing.

The quilt may be formed in any manner as long as the stuffing is not biased. However, if the quilt is folded along the seams 18 of the quilt as described above and is formed into a shape that can be stored in the pocket body 14, the quilt can be used. More convenient than above. Seam 1
8, since the thickness is small, it is easy to fold. Further, in the case of the second form of the futon 12B which requires the collar portion 22 and the like, if the seam 18c is provided at the bent portion, it becomes more convenient in use.

The above-mentioned futon can be used as a futon or as a cushion body (cushion, pillow, etc.).
It can be used as a shoulder pad, waist pad, headband, etc. when worn on the body.

[0045]

According to the present invention, the versatility of the futon which can be diverted to other things as described above increases the versatility as compared with the conventional futon. Therefore, it can be effectively used in a car, an office or the like. For example, as a nap pad for a child in a car or as a shoulder rest in an office.
