"March 17, 1936.. J. LEVI SEAT COVER Filed Dec. 9, 1953 Patented Mar. 17, 1936 UNITED STATES SEAT COVER Julius Levi, Chicago, 111,, assignor to Sam Pass, Chicago, Ill.

1 Claim.
This invention relates to improvements in seat covers.
One object of the invention is to provide seat covers such as for automobile seats, which are provided with panel inserts of relatively coarse material which not only has desirable wearing qualities but also provides a cooler seat and back rest than the cloth material of which the re.- mainder of the cover is formed.
A further object of the invention is to so secure the inserted panels at their edges to the adjacent cloth portions by folding the edges of the latter material over both sides of the edges of the panels that raveling of the panel is prevented, and by similarly joining adjacent edges of the cloth material the use of separate binding is obviated, and the seams of the covers are finished on both sides so they may be turned inside out when the outer side has become soiled.
In the drawing illustrating the embodiment of the invention Figure 1 is a perspective view of a conventional automobile seat having my improved covers thereon.
Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary elevation showing in different planes the construction of the covers at a corner of the inserted panel.
Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2, but viewed from the opposite side of the cover.
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on line 44 of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5-5 of Figure 1.
Figure 6 is a sectional View taken on line 66 of Figure 1.
In the drawing, It indicates generally a cover for a seat and II represents a cover for the seat back.
Referring to the seat cover, it will be seen that the same is provided with a central panel i2 formed of relatively coarse woven material. This material preferably is formed of paper or fibrous material, and is well known in the trades. This material is durable and being relatively coarse, provides a cool seat in the summer time, and thus my improved covers render unnecessary the use of the conventional straw pads frequently employed by motorists during warm weather.
Secured to the ends of the panel I2 are upper end sections I3 and M, the forward portions of which, as shown in Figure 1, extend approximately to the forward edge of the seat. The rear ends of the sections I3 and I4 extend downwardly to the lower margin of the seat.
Attached to the forward edge of the panel I2 at seam I5 is a front cloth section 16. This section has end extensions which form the end sections I1 and I8 which aresecured to sections I3 and I 4 at the seams I 9 and 23 respectively. The seams I9 and 20 will be disposed at the end edges of the seat, as shown.
A rear section 2I is secured at seam 22 to the panel I2 and at its ends to the adjacent rear edges of the panels 53 and id. The bottom edges of the sections I6 and I1, I8 and 2| may be provided with a gathering string 23 by means of which the cover is secured in place. Tie. strings may, of course,-be employed if desired.
Figures 4, 5 and 6 show the manner of folding the cloth material to form the seams which are finished on both sides. Thus in Figure 4 it will be seen that the margin of section I3 has its free edge I3a stitched at 2 to the panel I2. The material is then folded over the layer 53 as shown in Figure 4, and brought in a double fold beneath the edge of panel I2 and stitched thereto at 25, the latter stitches extending through the four layers of the cloth material of the section I3 and through the panel I2. An additional row of stitches 26 may be provided, if desired. 25
This manner of folding the cloth material is employed at all the seams where the cloth material of the various cover sections are attached to the panel I2.
Figure 5 shows the formation of the seam I9 which is typical of the seams where two cloth sections are attached together. Thus it will be seen that the margin of the section I! is enclosed between two double folds of the section I3, and stitched in the manner described above in con- 5 nection with Figure l.
Figure 6 is a view taken on line 66 of Figure 1, and corresponds with the arrangement of the folds shown in Figure 4.
Figures 2 and 3 are upper and lower plan views respectively illustrating the fold of the materials at the corner as of the panel I2.
This manner of folding the margins of the cloth sections over the edges of the panel I2 firmly secures the parts together with the edges of the cloth sections and of the panel I2 disposed inwardly of the seam to prevent fraying or loosening of the same and forms a finished seam on both sides of the cover. Thus when one side of the cover has become soiled, it may be turned wrong side out and replaced on the seat cushion for further use.
The panel I2 extends only over the central portion of the top of the seat cushion and does not 55 fold over any of the edges of the cushion nor is it folded in forming the seams.
The cover II for the seat back is constructed on similar principles. This back cover is provided with a coarse woven fibrous panel 21 being attached at its ends to the cloth sections 28 and 29 at seamsSU and 3| respectively. These seams are similar to those shown in Figures 4 and 5.
Along the upper edge of the panel 21 is attached a cloth section 32 at seam 33 and at the lower edge of the panel is attached the cloth section 34 at seam 35. Cross sections through these latter two mentioned seams will correspond with the structure shown in Figures 4 and 5. The cover sections Il may be constructed to form an envelope or sack which slides down over the back of the seat and may be secured at the lower end thereof by a gathering string or any other desirable means.
The section 32 may have end extensions 36 and 31 which extend down along the ends of the back and are attached to the sections 28 and 29 at the seams 38 and 39, which are formed similar to the seams shown in Figure 5. The sections 32, 36 and 31 and the section extending over the back of the seat, not shown, may be made of one piece of cloth or of smaller pieces attached together by seams finished on both sides, if desired.
This construction provides a cover for the seat back which may also be turned wrong side out when soiled, as above mentioned.
The improved seat covers render unnecessary the use of the straw pads frequently used by ace 1,40%
motorists during warm weather, since the relatively coarse paper or fibrous material of which the panels l2 and 21 are formed makes cooler seats and back rests than does the cloth of which the remaining portions of the covers are made.
The construction of the seams as described avoids any folding of the margins of the sections "I 2 and 21, and thus reduces likelihood of breaking or tearing the panels along the seams.
While I have shown and described an embodiment of my improvements for the purpose of illustration, I do not wish to be restricted specifically thereto except as so limited by the appended claim.
I claim:
A cushion cover comprising a panel of relatively coarse fibrous material adapted to cover the central portion of a seat cushion and terminating short of the marginal edges thereof, cloth sections secured to the ends of said panel and extending across the ends of the cushion from the front edge thereof downwardly over the rear of the cushion at the ends thereof, a second cloth section secured to the rear margin of said panel and at its adjacent edges to said first mentioned cloth sections, and a cloth section secured to the forward margin of said section and to said first mentioned sections and depending over the forward wall and end walls of the cushion, all said cloth sections being attached at adjacent margins one to another and to said panel by seams finished on both sides whereby the cover can be used either side out.
