DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a quilt and a quilt cover, and more particularly, to a quilt and a quilt cover that can prevent a positional shift while sleeping by fixing the quilt to a mattress.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In ordinary bedding, a combination of a mattress and a comforter is generally used when sleeping on a futon, and a combination of a mattress and a comforter is commonly used when sleeping on a bed. Recently, futons using thin and light chemical fibers, wool fibers, feathers, etc. have become the mainstream, instead of conventional futons using cotton fibers, silk fibers, etc., which had the drawbacks of being heavy and easily containing moisture. It has become. Futons using chemical fibers are light, easy to clean, clean, and have features such as difficulty in propagation of mites and the like. Further, the futon using wool fiber has features such as lightness and good heat retention. Furthermore, the futon using feathers has the features of being light, having higher heat retention, and having low hygroscopicity.

[0003]

As described above, recent futons are lightweight and excellent in heat retention, but the lighter the weight, the more unstable the quilt becomes and the easier it is to move. for that reason,
It often happens that the comforter shifts due to turning over and the body protrudes from the comforter before the sleeper knows. In addition, when the comforter shifts, a gap is formed between the end of the comforter and the comforter, and it often happens that cold air enters from outside and warm air escapes to the outside. When such a situation occurs, the heat retention becomes poor, and a good night's sleep is hindered. In particular, the feet are easy to cool, and the condition cannot be seen with the eyes.

The inventor of the present invention has conducted intensive studies to solve such problems, and as a result, has arrived at the present invention.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, an embodiment of a comforter according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a quilt 10 according to the present invention. A fixing member for fixing a quilt to be laid on a mattress or a person lying on a mattress to the mattress or mattress is provided at least in the vicinity of two adjacent corners on the lower surface of the quilt. , At a required distance from the outer edge. The mattress 2 and the comforter 10 are formed by putting chemical fibers, wool fibers, feathers, and the like in a substantially rectangular bag sewn with cloth, and the lower surface 14 of the comforter 10 is placed on the mattress 2 side (the side of the person lying on the mattress). )
The quilt 10 is used by being placed on the mattress 2 (on the person lying on the mattress 2).

Further, the fixing member 20 is formed in a string shape or a band shape, and the central axis in the longitudinal direction of the fixing member 20 is located near both corners of one short edge of the lower surface 14 of the comforter 10. It is mounted so as to cross the short and long edges adjacent to each other. And the fixing member 20
Both ends of the member 20 are fixed to the lower surface 14 of the comforter 10 by sewing. In addition, the entire length of the fixing member 20 is longer than the distance between both ends fixed to the lower surface 14 of the comforter 10, and the string or the band (the fixing member 20) is loosened. There is a gap between them. Further, the mounting positions of the both ends of the fixing member 20 are mounted corresponding to positions where a slight gap is left from the outer edge of the mattress 2 laid under the comforter 10 shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. .

Next, the operation in the case of going to bed using such a comforter 10 will be described.

First, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the pillow 4 is placed on one short edge of the mattress 2, and the quilt 10 is positioned so that the fixing member 20 is positioned on the other short edge of the mattress 2.
On the mattress 2. Then, the fixing member 20 and the comforter 1
The comforter 10 is fixed to the mattress 2 by sandwiching the corner (corner) of the mattress 2 in the gap with zero. As a result, the comforter 10 is fixed to the mattress 2 and does not move on the bedside of the person going to bed, so that the comforter 10 does not shift even when the bedridden turns over.

As described above, the use of the comforter 10 provided with the fixing member 20 of the present invention can prevent the comforter 10 from shifting even when the sleeping person moves due to turning over. As a result, the comforter 10 is displaced by the turnover or the like without the sleeper's knowledge, and the body of the sleeper protrudes from the comforter 10, or the gap between the end of the comforter 10 and the mattress 2 due to the displacement of the comforter 10. This prevents the cold air from entering from outside and the warm air from escaping from inside the futon. Therefore, the heat retention and the stability of the comforter are improved, and the user can sleep comfortably.

Furthermore, since the fixing member is provided only on the foot side, the foot side of the quilt 10 is firmly fixed to the mattress 2, but the pillow 4 side of the quilt 10 can be freely moved to some extent. Therefore, the warmth of the feet is greatly improved, and the upper body can be freely moved to some extent, so that the patient can sleep comfortably without falling asleep.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the comforter according to the present invention can be implemented in other modes. For example, the comforter of the present invention can be used by being fixed not only to a mattress but also to any bedding such as a bed mattress. In particular, when fixed to a mattress, it is possible to prevent the comforter from falling off the bed. Further, the comforter provided with the fixing member can be provided not only on the comforter but also on any bedding such as a towel, a skin, and a quilt.

The fixing member can be mounted at any position. However, since the quilt is generally larger than the mattress, the fixing member is mounted at a position spaced from the outer edge of the quilt. The distance from the edge of the comforter to the fixing member can be set to an arbitrary distance depending on the size of the comforter and the mattress. Further, the gap between the fixing member and the comforter (the length of the fixing member) can be any size as long as the mattress can be sandwiched and fixed.

The fixing member may be one that does not expand or contract or may expand and contract, and any material such as fiber, nylon, or rubber can be used. When a stretchable fixing member such as rubber is used, the fixing member can be easily attached to the mattress by extending the fixing member.
By shrinking the fixing member, the mattress can be sandwiched with a stronger force, and the comforter can be fixed more stably. In addition, when a material having high friction such as rubber is used for the contact surface of the fixing member with the mattress, the fixing member is less likely to be displaced by friction, and the quilt can be fixed more stably.

The fixing member can be fixed to the comforter by sewing or the like, or can be detachably attached. For example, the comforter 30 shown in FIG.
Attach the magic tapes 34 and 36 to both ends of the fixing member 32 and the comforter 30, and attach the magic tapes 34 and 36.
The fixing member 32 is attached to the comforter 30 by sticking together. In addition, the comforter 40 shown in FIG.
The button 44 is attached to the comforter 40 and the fixing member 4
A long hole through which the button 44 passes is provided at the end of the second member, and the fixing member 42 can be attached to the comforter 40 by passing the button 44 through the long hole as in clothes.

Since the fixing member of such a quilt can be freely removed, it is possible to remove the quilt so that the fixing member does not become entangled with the quilt when washing, for example. Further, even when the elasticity of the fixing member is lost or the fixing member is broken, the fixing member can be easily replaced and used continuously, and the economy can be improved. The attachment and detachment of the fixing member is not particularly limited, and can be performed by any method.
As shown in (a), the fixing portion 5 fixed to the comforter 50
8 and an attaching / detaching portion 57 attached to the fixing portion 58 with magic tapes 54 and 55, or as shown in FIG. 5B, a holding member 64 is attached to the distal end portion of the fixing portion 67 fixed to the comforter 60. It is also possible to mount the attachment / detachment portion 66 by sandwiching it with the holding tool 64.

The fixing member only needs to be able to immobilize the comforter by fixing it to the mattress. For example, as shown in FIG.
For example, a fixing member 72 is provided to connect two adjacent corners.
It is not always necessary to provide the quilt at two adjacent corners, and it can be provided at any position as long as the quilt can be fixed to the mattress.
Further, the shape of the fixing member is not limited to a string shape or a band shape. For example, a substantially triangular fixing member 82 as shown in FIG. 7 or a rectangular fixing member 92 as shown in FIG. For example, a fixing member having an arbitrary shape can be used.

The fixing member is made of chemical fiber, wool fiber,
In addition to being directly attached to a cloth bag or the like in which feathers and the like are put, it may be provided on a quilt cover that wraps the cloth bag (futon). When such a quilt cover is used, unlike a case where the quilt is directly attached to the quilt, the fixing member can be provided on an arbitrary quilt by wrapping the quilt in the quilt cover. Therefore, for example, a thin quilt for summer and a thick quilt for winter can be selectively used by simply changing the cover. The material and shape of the comforter cover are not particularly limited, and any material and shape such as cloth, vinyl, and mesh can be used.

Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the mounting position of the fixing member can be adjusted according to the shape of the mattress. For example, a case where a fixing member as shown in FIG. 4A is used will be described as an example. A plurality of velcro tapes are provided at a plurality of positions on a mattress, and the position of the velcro tape to which the tip of the fixing member is attached is selected. Thereby, the mounting position of the fixing member can be adjusted. Thereby, the mounting position of the fixing member can be adjusted to an optimum state according to the size of the mattress.

The embodiments of the quilt and the quilt cover according to the present invention have been described variously with reference to the drawings.
The present invention is not limited to the illustrated comforter and comforter cover. Further, the present invention can be carried out in various modified, modified, and modified forms based on the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0025]

According to the quilt of the present invention, in a quilt to be put on a mattress or a person lying on a mattress, a fixing member for fixing the quilt to the mattress or mattress is provided at least in the vicinity of two corners adjacent to the lower surface of the quilt. At a predetermined distance from the outer edge. Therefore, the comforter can be fixed to the comforter by sandwiching the comforter between the comforter and the fixing member. As a result, the comforter is stabilized and the heat retention is enhanced, so that the user can sleep comfortably.

Further, according to the comforter of the present invention, since the fixing member is detachable, it is possible to easily remove the fixing member or replace the fixing member during washing. Furthermore, according to the comforter of the present invention, since the fixing member can be expanded and contracted, the fixing member can be easily attached to the mattress by extending the fixing member, and at the same time, the fixing member is contracted, so that the fixing to the mattress is stronger. Becomes

According to the quilt cover of the present invention, since the fixing member is provided on the cover, it is possible to mount the fixing member on an arbitrary quilt by wrapping it in the cover. Therefore, even when different quilts are used for summer or winter, the fixing member can be easily replaced simply by replacing the cover.
