Description

  The present disclosure relates to a sofa cover covering a sofa having a seating surface, a backrest, and an armrest.

  Conventionally, a sofa cover covering the sofa is known. By covering the sofa with the sofa cover, dirt and pain on the sofa are suppressed. In addition, the user can change the appearance of the sofa to a desired appearance by using the sofa cover.

  However, when a user uses a sofa covered with a sofa cover, the sofa cover may be displaced. Although it is possible to push the sofa cover into the gap between the seating surface and the backrest and between the seating surface and the armrest, it is possible to use the sofa cover only by pushing a part of the sofa cover into the gap. In many cases, the cover easily comes out of the gap.

  The sofa cover described in Patent Document 1 includes a stretchable cylindrical band having rubber on the back side of the cover body. A stopper member having a large number of irregularities on the outer peripheral surface is attached to the cylindrical band. The stopper member attached to the cylindrical band is inserted into the gap of the sofa, so that the sofa cover is prevented from coming out of the gap.

JP 2017-6442 A

  In the sofa cover of Patent Document 1, the stopper member is held by a stretchable cylindrical band having rubber. In this case, the stopper member is easily removed from the expanding and contracting cylindrical band. In addition, although a large load is applied to the cylindrical band when a user sits on a sofa, there is a problem that the expandable / contractible cylindrical band is easily deteriorated and damaged. Furthermore, there is a problem that the structure of the sofa cover is complicated by providing a cylindrical band having rubber.

  A typical object of the present disclosure is to provide a sofa cover that can solve at least one of the problems of the prior art and can be used more appropriately.

  A sofa cover provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes a seat surface on which a user sits, a backrest extending upward from a rear portion of the seat surface, and an armrest extending upward from each of the left and right sides of the seat surface. A sofa cover that covers the sofa, and includes a holding part that holds a columnar or cylindrical retaining member on the back side of the main body, and the holding part has elasticity compared to the material of the main body of the sofa cover. A string-like or belt-like member formed of a low non-stretch material, and includes a loop portion that is fixed to the main body to form a loop, and the retaining member is inserted into the loop formed by the loop portion. To be held by the holding portion.

  The sofa cover in the present disclosure has a simple structure and can be used more appropriately.

2 is a perspective view of a sofa cover 1 and a sofa 50. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a retaining member 20. FIG. It is the perspective view which looked at the holding | maintenance part 10 holding the retaining member 20 from the back surface B side of the sofa cover main body.

<Overview>
The sofa cover illustrated in this disclosure covers a sofa with a seating surface, a backrest, and an armrest. A holding portion for holding a columnar or cylindrical retaining member is provided on the back side of the sofa cover. The holding part includes a loop part. The loop portion is a string-like or belt-like member formed of a non-stretch material that is less stretchable than the material of the sofa cover body, and is fixed to the sofa cover body to form a loop. The retaining member is held by the holding portion by being inserted into the loop formed by the loop portion.

  In the sofa cover according to the present disclosure, the retaining member is held by the loop portion of the non-stretchable material. Therefore, the retaining member is less likely to come out of the loop than when the retaining member is held by the elastic member. In addition, the loop portion is less likely to deteriorate and break. Furthermore, the structure for holding the retaining member is simplified as compared with the case of retaining the retaining member using rubber or the like.

  In addition, the non-stretchable material which comprises a loop part can be selected suitably. For example, a string or tape made of cloth that does not easily stretch or a string or tape made of synthetic resin (for example, nylon, polyester, etc.) can be used as the material of the loop portion.

  One holding part may include two loop parts. One retaining member may be held by the holding portion by being inserted into two loops. In this case, since the holding portion holds the columnar or cylindrical retaining member at two locations, the retaining member is stably retained. Furthermore, the user can easily attach the retaining member to the holding portion as compared with the case where one retaining member is inserted into three or more loops.

  However, the number of through holes provided in one holding part can be changed as appropriate. For example, one retaining member can be held by one or three or more loop portions.

  Each of the end portions in the longitudinal direction of the loop portion that is string-like or belt-like may be fixed at different positions on the sofa cover main body. That is, the loop portion may be fixed to the main body at two positions separated from each other. In this case, the load applied to the sofa cover main body at the fixing portion is reduced as compared with a case where one portion of the loop portion (annular) that is previously looped (annular) is fixed to the main body. Accordingly, the possibility of deterioration and breakage is further reduced. However, it is also possible to fix the loop portion, which has been previously looped, to the sofa cover body.

  At least one of the color and the design of the loop portion and the sofa cover body around the loop portion may be different. In this case, the user can easily grasp the position of the loop portion as compared with the case where the color and design of the loop portion and the sofa cover body are the same. Therefore, the user can more easily attach the retaining member to the holding portion. In addition to being provided on the back side of the sofa cover main body, the loop portion is inserted into the gap of the sofa together with the retaining member. Therefore, when the sofa cover is used, the aesthetic feeling of the sofa is not impaired by the loop portion.

  However, the color and design of the loop portion and the sofa cover body may be the same. In this case, even when the sofa cover is not fixed to the sofa using the holding portion and the retaining member, the aesthetic sense of the sofa due to the loop portion is suppressed.

  The sofa cover may include a retaining member. The retaining member may include an anti-slip portion on the outer peripheral surface that improves the frictional force against the surface of the sofa. In this case, the possibility that the retaining member will come out of the gap of the sofa is further reduced.

  In addition, the specific structure of a non-slip | skid part can be selected suitably. For example, the anti-slip portion may be a number of irregularities. Further, the anti-slip portion may be made of a material having a high frictional force against the surface of the sofa (for example, foaming resin or rubber).

<Embodiment>
Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the lower left side of FIG. 1 is the front side of the sofa cover 1 and the sofa 50, the upper right side of the page is the rear side of the sofa cover 1 and the sofa 50, the upper left side of the page is the right side of the sofa cover 1 and the sofa 50, and the right side of the page. The lower side is the left side of the sofa cover 1 and the sofa 50.

  With reference to FIG. 1, an example of the structure of the sofa 50 which can be covered with the sofa cover 1 of this embodiment is demonstrated. The sofa 50 includes a seat surface 51, a backrest 52, a right armrest 53R, and a left armrest 53L. The seating surface 51 is a part where the user sits and supports the user from below. The backrest 52 is a portion extending upward from the rear portion of the seating surface 51 and supports the user from the rear. The right armrest 53R and the left armrest 53L (sometimes collectively referred to as “armrests 53R, 53L”) extend upward from each of the left and right sides of the seat surface 51.

  A gap 55 is formed between the seat surface 51 and the backrest 52. The gap 55 extends in the left-right direction of the sofa 50. A gap 56R is formed between the seat surface 51 and the right armrest 53R. Further, a gap 56L is formed between the seat surface 51 and the left armrest 53L. The gap 56R and the gap 56L extend in the front-rear direction of the sofa 50.

  With reference to FIG. 1, the schematic structure of the sofa cover 1 of this embodiment is demonstrated. The main body of the sofa cover 1 of the present embodiment is formed of a stretchable fabric (for example, a fabric made of polyester fiber or polyurethane fiber). However, at least a part of the main body of the sofa cover 1 may be formed of a material having low stretchability. The sofa cover 1 of the present embodiment includes a seat surface cover portion 2, a backrest cover portion 3, a right armrest cover portion 4R, and a left armrest cover portion 4L.

  The seat surface cover 2 covers the upper surface of the seat surface 51 of the sofa 50. The backrest cover 3 covers at least the front surface of the backrest 52 of the sofa 50. Specifically, the backrest cover portion 3 of the present embodiment can cover the front, upper surface, rear surface, and upper portions of the left and right side surfaces of the backrest 52. The right armrest cover portion 4R covers at least the inside (left side) side surface of the right armrest 53R of the sofa 50. Specifically, the right armrest cover 4R of the present embodiment can cover the inner surface, the outer surface, the upper surface, the front surface, and the rear surface of the right armrest 53R. The left armrest cover portion 4L covers at least the inside (right side) side surface of the left armrest 53L of the sofa 50. Specifically, the left armrest cover 4L of the present embodiment can cover the inner surface, the outer surface, the upper surface, the front surface, and the rear surface of the left armrest 53L. As described above, the sofa cover 1 of the present embodiment can cover the outer periphery excluding the bottom surface of the sofa 50 by the seat surface cover portion 2, the backrest cover portion 3, the right armrest cover portion 4R, and the left armrest cover portion 4L. it can.

  In the vicinity of the lower end portion of the sofa cover 1, a contraction portion 8 is provided over the entire circumference. For example, rubber or the like can be used for the contraction portion 8. When the sofa cover 1 is attached to the sofa 50, the lower end portion of the sofa cover 1 contracts inward by the contracting portion 8. As a result, the appearance of the sofa cover 1 attached to the sofa 50 is improved.

  The sofa cover 1 includes a holding portion 10 that holds a retaining member 20 (see FIG. 2) at a central portion on the back side of the main body. Specifically, the sofa cover 1 includes a back surface side at the connection portion 5 between the seat surface cover portion 2 and the backrest cover portion 3, a back surface side at the connection portion 6R between the seat surface cover portion 2 and the right armrest cover portion 4R, and a seat surface cover. The holding part 10 is provided on at least one of the back surfaces of the connecting part 6L between the part 2 and the left armrest cover part 4L. As an example, the sofa cover 1 of the present embodiment includes three holding portions 10 on the back side of the connection portion 5 of the seat surface cover portion 2 and the backrest cover portion 3. Further, the sofa cover 1 includes one holding portion 10 on the back side of each of the connecting portions 6R and 6L of the seat cover portion 2 and the left and right armrest cover portions 4R and 4L (in FIG. 1, the left-side connection is shown). The illustration of the holding part 10 in the part 6L is omitted). Details of the holding unit 10 will be described later.

  An example of a retaining member will be described with reference to FIG. The shape of the retaining member 20 of the present embodiment is a straight cylindrical shape. However, the shape of the retaining member can be changed. For example, the retaining member may be prismatic (polygonal prism such as triangular prism or quadrangular prism). Further, the retaining member may be cylindrical (for example, cylindrical, rectangular tube, etc.). When the cross-sectional shape perpendicular to the axis of the retaining member is a trapezoidal shape or a triangular shape, the retaining member is more difficult to come out from the gaps 55, 56 </ b> R, 56 </ b> L of the sofa 50. Further, the retaining member may be bent instead of a straight shape. The axial length of the retaining member 20 is desirably 10 cm to 20 cm. In this embodiment, the axial length of the retaining member 20 is about 15 cm.

  The retaining member 20 of the present embodiment includes a core portion 21 and an outer peripheral portion 22. The core portion 21 is a columnar member formed of a foamable resin such as sponge. The outer peripheral portion 22 is formed of a foamable resin having a higher density than the core portion 21 and covers the outer peripheral surface of the core portion 21.

  The retaining member 20 of the present embodiment includes an anti-slip portion 23 that increases the frictional force against the surface of the sofa 50 on the outer peripheral surface. As an example, the anti-slip | skid part 23 in this embodiment is raising the frictional force by providing many unevenness | corrugations formed in the outer peripheral surface of the outer peripheral part 22. As shown in FIG. However, it is possible to change the configuration of the anti-slip portion. For example, the anti-slip portion may be configured by using a material (rubber or the like) having a high frictional force as the material of the outer peripheral portion of the retaining member.

  With reference to FIG. 3, the holding | maintenance part 10 of this embodiment is demonstrated in detail. The holding part 10 includes a loop part 12 formed of a non-stretchable material that is less stretchable than the material of the main body of the sofa cover 1. The loop portion 12 is fixed to the main body of the sofa cover 1 to form a loop.

  The loop part 12 of this embodiment is a strip-shaped member. However, the shape of the loop portion 12 may be another shape (for example, a string shape or the like). Moreover, the non-stretchable material which comprises the loop part 12 can be selected suitably. For example, a string or tape made of cloth that hardly stretches or a string or tape made of synthetic resin (for example, nylon fiber, polyester fiber, etc.) can be used as the material of the loop portion 12.

  In the present embodiment, both end portions 141 and 142 in the longitudinal direction of the loop-shaped loop portion 12 are fixed at different positions on the body of the sofa cover 1. That is, the loop portion 12 is fixed to the main body of the sofa cover 1 at each of two positions separated from each other. As a result, in the present embodiment, a loop into which the retaining member 20 is inserted is formed by the loop portion 12 and the fabric of the body of the sofa cover 1. In this case, the load applied to the main body of the sofa cover 1 at the fixing portion is reduced as compared with the case where one portion of the loop portion that is formed in a loop shape is fixed to the main body.

  In the present embodiment, at least one of color and design is different between the loop portion 12 and the main body of the sofa cover 1 around the loop portion 12. Therefore, the user can easily grasp the position of the loop portion 12. The loop portion 12 is inserted into the gaps 55, 56 </ b> R, and 56 </ b> L (see FIG. 1) of the sofa 50 together with the retaining member 20 on the back side of the main body of the sofa cover 1. Therefore, when the sofa cover 1 is used, the aesthetic feeling is not impaired by the loop portion 12.

  In the present embodiment, one holding unit 10 includes two loop units 12. One retaining member 20 is held by two loop portions 12 included in one holding portion 10. As a result, the retaining member 20 is stably held. Furthermore, the user can easily attach the retaining member 20 to the holding portion 10 as compared with the case where one retaining member 20 is inserted into three or more loops.

  With reference to FIG. 3, the usage method of the sofa cover 1 of this embodiment is demonstrated. First, the user inserts the retaining member 20 into two loops formed by the two loop portions 12 of the respective holding portions 10. As a result, the retaining member 20 is held by the holding unit 10. As described above, since the loop portion 12 is formed of a non-stretchable material, the retaining member 20 is less likely to come out of the loop than when the loop portion 12 is formed of a stretchable material. It is difficult for the loop portion 12 to be deteriorated and damaged.

  Next, the user inserts the retaining member 20 attached to the holding unit 10 into the gaps 55, 56R, 56L (see FIG. 1) of the sofa 50. As a result, the displacement of the sofa cover 1 is appropriately suppressed.
