Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (a) Industrial Application Field The present invention provides futons, blankets, pillows,
Bedding that disperses wear and stains on the bedding cover by turning the cover of a sitting cushion (hereinafter referred to as bedding) vertically, and that makes it easier to insert bedding, etc. into the bedding cover. This relates to improvements to the cover.

(b) Conventional technology The covers of conventional bedding etc. can be replaced on the top and bottom or left and right sides, but cannot be replaced on the other side, so dirt fats and proteins may oxidize and turn yellow, and areas with high friction may The drawback was that it became thinner more quickly than other parts.

In addition, it is not easy to put in and take out bedding because the opening is small, and even after storing bedding in the cover, you have to put your hands in and push it in to fit the bedding into the four corners of the cover, which is a hassle. There was a drawback that it took a while.

Furthermore, in order to eliminate this drawback, a method in which a cover is rotated around the bedding has been proposed (see, for example, Japanese Utility Model Application No. 129415/1983). However, in the cover according to this proposal, it was necessary to tie the left and right openings with a string.

(C) Problems to be Solved by the Invention As mentioned above, conventional covers cannot withstand long-term use because they only get dirty or worn at certain points. Therefore, if the cloth member is formed into a ring shape, bedding is inserted into the ring, and the cover is rotated vertically each time the cover is used, stains, etc. will be dispersed and evened out. There was no suitable means for sealing the openings at both ends. That is,
If the strings are tied as described above, it becomes difficult to tie them if the positions of the strings shift even slightly. Also,
If there is variation in the attachment position of each string, tension will occur in some areas, so it is necessary to accurately define the attachment intervals of the strings.

Further, when the cloth member is rotated, the opening thereof also rotates. Therefore, it is impossible to install a normal slide fastener, and if a conventional surface fastener is used, depending on the degree of rotation, it may be necessary to engage small engagement protrusions or loops. The use of this conventional hook-and-loop fastener is also inappropriate because of this.

The present invention has been made in view of the problems of the prior art.

(D) Means for Solving the Problems The present invention provides a first engaging member having a plurality of small engaging protrusions protruding from both the front and back sides of a base material, and a ring-shaped opening at both ends of the first engaging member. It consists of a cloth member to which a second engaging member having a loop formed on its surface that can be engaged with the small engaging protrusion is fixed on the inside, and the article to be packaged is wrapped with this cloth member, and the This is a cover for bedding, characterized in that an opening in a cloth member is sealed by inserting and pressing a first engaging member between second engaging members provided.

(e) Function When putting bedding into the cover, put the bedding into the opening at the side end of the ring-shaped cloth member, and insert the plurality of first engaging members between the second engaging members provided on both sides of the cloth member.
The engagement member may be inserted and the portion may be pressed from above and below to engage the small engagement protrusion of the first engagement member with the loop of the second engagement member to close it.

The second engagement member is provided over the entire length inside the openings at both ends of the ring-shaped cloth member, and since the first engagement member is separate, it can be inserted into any position. By attaching only the first engaging members at the four corners of the cover portion of the bedding, the four corners of the bedding can be easily stored in the four corners of the cover.

(f) Example First, the surface fastener used in this example will be explained. Figure 1 is a sectional view showing a hook and loop fastener.
FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the first engaging member of this surface fastener.

In these figures, reference numeral 1 denotes a first engagement member having hooks 3 as small engagement projections protruding from both the front and back surfaces of a base material 2. This first engagement member 1 is
It may be formed by planting the hook pieces 3 on both the front and back sides of a single base material 2, but it may be formed by planting the hook pieces 3 on only one side of the base material 2 ( Hook piece 3 of the so-called cloth surface fastener)...
It may also be formed by sewing or gluing the surfaces on which no . Moreover, a mushroom-shaped engagement piece whose head bulges outward may be used as the engagement small protrusion.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a second engaging member in which a loop 5 that can be engaged with the hook piece 3 is woven from a base material 66, and is said to be the female of a so-called fabric hook-and-loop fastener, but is made of so-called pile fabric. Or towel cloth, etc. may be used. The second engaging members 4, 4 are attached to base materials (cloth members to be described later) 7, 7 such that loops 5 are formed on the surfaces thereof.
sewn on.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, when the first engaging member 1 is inserted between the two opposing second engaging members 4, 4 and the base materials 7, 7 are pressed from above and below, The hook pieces 3... and the loops 5... engage and the two base materials 7, 7 are joined. Then, when both the joined base materials 7, 7 are pulled in the opposite direction to the pressing direction, the engagement relationship between the hook pieces 3... and the loops 5... is released, and the first engagement member 1 and the second engagement member 1 are engaged with each other. The members 4, 4 are each separated.

Reference numeral 8 in FIG. 2 is a stopper such as a button, and by locking this locking tool 8 to a locking tool provided on another member (not shown), the first This is for fixing the engaging member 1 to another member.

Next, the main body of this embodiment will be explained. 3 to 6 show a cover 9 for bedding according to the present invention.
This shows that.

In these figures, 7 is a cloth member formed in a vertically or horizontally long ring shape, with openings 10 at both ends thereof,
The tape-shaped second engaging member 4 having loops 5 woven on its surface is sewn over the entire length of the inside of the holder 10 .

Several to ten or more first engaging members 1 are prepared, each having a length of about 1 cm to 4 cm.

Since this embodiment is configured as described above, the bedding main body 1 as the packaged object is placed inside the cloth member 7.
1, and open the openings 10 and 1 at both ends of this cloth member 7.
When the first engaging member 1 is inserted between 0 and pressed in the vertical direction, the hooks 3 formed on the front and back sides of the first engaging member 1 and the second engaging members 4, 4 The openings 10, 10 are sealed by engaging the loops 5 formed in the openings 10, 10. Then cover 9
and the bedding main body 11 are integrated.

At this time, the entire width of the side end opening 10 of the cloth member 7 is open, so that the bedding main body 11 can be easily inserted. Since only the member 4 is attached, it does not engage with other parts or become tangled, and can be easily washed.

In addition, if the bedding main body 11 is large such as a futon or a blanket, even if the bedding main body 11 is not fully inserted into the corner, one of the first engaging members 1 located at the corner Only the surface of the second engaging member 4
The corner of the bedding main body 11 can be easily accommodated in the corner by removing it from the bed and inserting a hand from there.

Furthermore, since the second engaging member 4 provided over the entire length of the side end opening 10 and a plurality of small first engaging members 1 are used as the locking tool, the cloth member 7 has a It is sufficient to attach only the engaging member 4. Therefore, attachment is extremely easy, and it is sufficient to insert the desired number of first engaging members 1.
The bedding main body 11 is easy to put in and requires no effort.

Furthermore, if the bedding cover becomes dirty or the fabric becomes thin due to use, the dirt and wear on the bedding cover can be dispersed by turning it slightly in the vertical direction to shift the engagement position. It is.

Furthermore, by using a plurality of small first engaging members 1..., when this cover 9 is used as a cover for an electric blanket or electric sheet, the cord can be pulled out from any position.

In addition, although we have shown the example of applying the method to a mattress, it can also be applied not only to comforters, blankets, pillows, and cushions, but also to reclining chairs, simple foldable pipe beds, cushions, etc. It is something.

(G) Effects of the Invention Since the cover according to the present invention is formed of a ring-shaped cloth member, dirt and wear on the cover can be dispersed by turning it vertically to shift the locking position. In addition, the lock can be set at any position and in any number of locks, so that it can be turned finely in multiple stages.

In addition, since the opening of the cover part is large, it is easy to insert the bedding body when putting it on bedding, and later you can remove only the first engaging member at the corner and insert your hand from there
This has the effect that it can be stored in the corner of the cover of the bedding.

Furthermore, when the first engaging member is completely removed, the cover part becomes ring-shaped, so if you pass a rod through the top end and a short rod through the bottom end, it will be easier to dry and will dry faster, as well as being able to be washed in a washing machine. No tangles. In particular, when washing, the first engaging member on which the small engaging protrusion is protruded is removed, and only the cloth member to which the second engaging member with the loop is attached is placed in the washing machine. Since it is enough to throw it in, there is no need for thread waste to get tangled in the small engaging protrusion.

Furthermore, when sealing the opening of the cloth member, the first
The same parts of the engaging member and the second engaging member do not always engage with each other, and only a certain part of the second engaging member is not damaged. Therefore, a longer life can be achieved. It goes without saying that if the first engaging member is damaged (including dust attached), the first engaging member can be easily replaced.
