TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a futon skin such as a comforter or a mattress or an outer case for a futon such as a cover for a futon.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In general, a futon such as a comforter or a mattress is formed by overlapping a first outer material and a second outer material in a rectangular shape, and suturing the periphery of the outer material, and forming a futon skin as a futon outer body formed in a bag shape. Having. Then, a heat insulating material such as feather or cotton is accommodated in the futon.
[0003]
The futon having the above configuration is covered with a futon cover as a futon outer body for the purpose of preventing the futon skin from being stained or damaged at an early stage. As is well known, the futon cover is formed by sewing three sides of four sides around a first outer material and a second outer material having a rectangular shape corresponding to the shape of the futon, opening the other side, and fastening the one side to a fastener. Openable and closable. Then, after the futon is accommodated from one side of the futon cover that can be opened and closed, the fastener on one side is closed for use.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, it is important for the futon exterior body such as the futon skin and the futon cover to have good functions and good appearance in order to enhance commercial value. In view of this, the conventional futon exterior body is designed to improve the appearance by selecting the colors, materials, and the like of the first outer material and the second outer material.
[0005]
However, there has been a case where the appearance cannot be sufficiently improved only by selecting the colors and materials of the first outer material and the second outer material constituting the futon exterior body.
[0006]
An object of the present invention is to provide a futon case that is provided with a decorative function by means of elements other than the colors and materials of the first and second outer materials so that the appearance can be improved. is there.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention relates to a futon exterior body formed by superimposing a first outer material and a second outer material and sewing the periphery of the outer material.
Between the peripheral portions of the first outer material and the second outer material, it is assumed that a plurality of fold edges overlapped with different lengths of protrusion from the outer edges of the outer material are integrally sewn together with the outer material. This is a futon exterior.
[0008]
In the case of a futon cover, it is preferable that at least a part of the overlapped portion of the plurality of fold edges along the circumferential direction of the first and second outer materials is connected to be openable and closable by opening and closing means.
[0009]
Preferably, the plurality of fold edges differ in at least one of color and material.
[0010]
According to the present invention, since the plurality of fold edges sewn between the peripheral portions of the first outer material and the second outer material have different protruding lengths, the plurality of overlapping fold edges are connected to the first outer material side. It can have a different appearance depending on whether it is viewed from the side or from the second outer material side.
[0011]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0012]
1 to 3 show a first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 shows a duvet skin 1 for a duvet as an exterior body of the duvet. The futon 1 has a first outer material 2 and a second outer material 3 each cut into a rectangular shape.
[0013]
A first fold edge 4 and a second fold edge 5 bent to the same width as shown in FIG. 2 are provided between the outer edges of the first and second outer materials 2 and 3. 3 are interposed with different protruding lengths from the peripheral edge. The fold edges 4 and 5 are integrally sewn with the first and second outer materials 2 and 3. In this embodiment, the dimension of the second fold edge 5 protruding outward from the peripheral edges of the outer materials 2 and 3 is set to be larger than that of the first fold edge 4.
[0014]
Further, the first fold edge 4 and the second fold edge 5 differ in at least one of color and material. In this embodiment, both the color and the material are formed by different bias tapes.
[0015]
The space between the first outer material 2 and the second outer material 3 is divided into a plurality of spaces 8 by a partition cloth 7. Each space 8 accommodates a feather (not shown). The feathers accommodated in the respective spaces 8 are prevented from being biased in one direction in the futon 1 by the partition cloth 7.
[0016]
According to the futon hide 1 having such a configuration, when the first outer material 2 is used in a state where the first outer material 2 faces upward as shown in FIG. Both the fold edge 4 and the second fold edge 5 protruding from the first fold edge 4 are visible. That is, the futon 1 has an appearance in which two fold edges 4 and 5 having different colors and materials are provided in the peripheral portion.
[0017]
On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3B, when the futon 1 is used with the second outer material 3 facing upward, the first fold edge 4 is covered by the second fold edge 5. Only the second fold edge 5 is visible. Therefore, the periphery of the futon 1 has the color of the second fold edge 5 and the appearance of the material.
[0018]
In this manner, the futon 1 protrudes to the peripheral edges of the outer materials 2 and 3 depending on the use state of using the first outer material 2 on the upper side or using the second outer material 3 on the upper side. A different appearance can be exhibited depending on the color and the material of the first fold edge 4 and the second fold edge 5 provided with different lengths. This makes it possible to increase the commercial value of the futon 1 and promote sales.
[0019]
Even if the color and the material of the first fold edge 4 and the second fold edge 5 are the same, since the protruding dimensions of the fold edges 4 and 5 are different, the futon 1 is divided into the first and second fold edges. The appearance of the futon 1 can be changed depending on which side of the outer fabrics 2 and 3 is viewed.
[0020]
FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, first to third fold edges 11a to 11c having different projection sizes are provided between peripheral portions of the first outer material 2 and the second outer material 3. In other words, the protrusion size of the second fold edge 11b is larger than that of the first fold edge 11a, and the protrusion size of the third fold edge 11c is larger than that of the second fold edge 11.
[0021]
Although the first fold edge 11a and the second fold edge 11b have substantially the same width, the third fold edge 11c is set to have a larger width than the first and second fold edges 11a and 11b. I have. By increasing only the width dimension of the third fold edge 11c having the largest protruding dimension, it is not necessary to increase the width dimension of the first and second fold edges 11a and 11b. Therefore, the material used for the fold edges can be reduced.
[0022]
As described above, even when the three fold edges 11 a to 11 c are provided between the peripheral portions of the first outer material 2 and the second outer material 3, the futon bark 1 can be used in any one of the first and second outer materials 2 and 3. Different appearances can be provided depending on whether viewed from the side.
[0023]
FIG. 5 shows a third embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment shows a futon cover 20 as a futon exterior body. The futon cover 20 has a first outer material 12 and a second outer material 13 formed in a rectangular shape of the same size. A first fold edge 14 is sewn to the inner peripheral portion of the first outer material 12, and a second fold edge 15 is sewn to the inner peripheral portion of the second outer material 13.
[0024]
The protrusion size of the first fold edge 14 from the first outer material 12 is set smaller than the protrusion size of the second fold edge 15 from the second outer material 13. As in the first embodiment, the first fold edge 14 and the second fold edge 15 are different from each other in at least one of color and material.
[0025]
The side surfaces of the first fold edge 14 and the second fold edge 15 facing each other when the first outer material 12 and the second outer material 13 are overlapped with each other are four sides along the circumferential direction of each outer material 12, 13. The whole is connected by a fastener 16 as opening / closing means. Thereby, by opening the fastener 16, the futon 17 can be stored in the space between the first outer material 12 and the second outer material 13 as shown by a chain line in FIG. Note that the fastener 16 may be provided on at least one of the four sides of the outer materials 12 and 13.
[0026]
According to the futon cover 20 having such a configuration, like the futon skin 1 of the first embodiment, the first and second outer materials 12, 13 are determined depending on which of the upper and lower outer materials 12, 13 is used. Since both the fold edges 14 and 15 are visible, or only one of them is visible, different appearances are exhibited depending on the usage state. Thereby, the commercial value of the futon cover 20 can be increased.
[0027]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, a plurality of fold edges are stitched with different protruding lengths between the peripheral portions of the first outer material and the second outer material. Therefore, a different appearance can be exhibited depending on whether the plurality of overlapped fold edges are viewed from the first outer material side or the second outer material side, thereby increasing the commercial value.
