. SLIP COVER FOR AUTOMOBILES.
Original No. 1,544,141, dated June 30,: 1925, Serial No. 585,305 filed August 30, 1922. Application 'for reissue filed September 12, 1925. Serial No. 56,100.
This invention relates to certain new and v useful improvements in slip covers for automobiles.
The primary objedt of the invention is to provide a slip cover comprising independent seat and back sections, each of which is formed principally from a sheet of matting composed. of interwoven strands of grass, cane or other vegetable fibers reinforced and bound together by cloth strips applied to opposite sides of the sheet along the edges thereof. These reinforcing strips serve as a means for attaching the cover in place and, in the case of the sea-tsection, provides a valance for concealing the edges of the seat cushion.
-Other objects of the invention, as well as the particular construction and arrangement of the various elements embodied therein will be more readily understood from the following description and accompanying 30 drawings.
' In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a fragmentary perspective view of an automobile, the front and rear seats of which are equipped with covers constructed in accordance with my invention.
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view of an automobile seat showing the manner in which the back and "seat sections of the cover are retained in position over the cushions.
Fig. 3 is a front view of the back section of the cover. I
Fig-4: is a rear view of the section shown in Fig. 3. i
Fig.5 is a top plan view of the seat section of the cover.
Fig.6 is a transverse sectional view of the Y construction shown in Fig. 5.
Fig. Tie a bottom plan view of the seat section and Fig. 8 is a detail of the seat section showing the manner of securing a fas- 5 automobile, the front and rear seats of which are each equipped with the usual seat and back cushions l2 and 13.
In accordance with my invention the covers for the seat cushions 12 and back cushions 13 are constructed mainly from matting composed of interwoven strands of grass, cane or other vegetable fibers. A sheet of this material. designated by the numeral 14, is cut to the size and shape required to completely conceal the top surface of the seat'cushion 12 and the sheet is then reinforced along its edges by securing suit-.
able strips of cloth to opposite sides of the sheet as indicated at 15. The sheet and cloth strips 15 are preferably united by stitching 16, arranged to serve as a binder for holding the strands of the sheet against sepa ration. The reinforcing cloth at one side of the sheet 14 is preferably made of suflicient width to project a considerable distancebeyond the edges of the sheet and thus Dro vide a valance 17 for concealing the edges of the seat cushion 12 as shown to advantage in Figs. 1 and 6. As a convenient means for holding the cover to said seat cushion, a fastening cord 18 is secured to the valance 17 preferably by folding the lower edge of the valance over the said cord and stitching the edge-in place as indicated at 19. The folded edge is cut away on one side of the valance to provide an outlet for the looped portion 18 of the cord and a second outlet on the opposite side of the valance for the free ends 18" of the cord, the said loop and free ends of the cord being adapted tobc tiedtogether v beneath the seat cushion as shown to ad-.
one or more reinforcing strips 20, prefer?" ably of cloth, to extend across the underside of the sheet 14in spaced relation to the reinforcing strips extending along the edges of the sheet and the ends of the strip 20 may be secured between the sheet and the said edge reinforcing strips or in any other manner desired.
The back section of the cover for each of the cushions 13 is made in substantially the same manner as the seat section by cutting a sheet 21 of matting to the size and shape.
required to completely cover the surface of the cushion to which it is to be applied and then reinforcing the edges of the sheet by securingcloth strips 22, to opposite sides of the sheet, the said strips being projec ted no sufficiently beyond the side and top edges of the sheet to permit of the same being tacked or otherwise secured to the cushion or other parts of the vehicle.
At the lower edge of the back section, suitable straps 23 are secured which, as shown to advantage inFigure 3 are adapted to underlie the seat cushion 12 and, if desired, may be secured to the seat proper.
From the foregoing, it will apparent that I have provided an economical type of slip cover, which, because of its material and construction, will last longer and give better service than the cloth slip cover-s now in general use. I am aware of the fact that it is not broadly new to use cane or other matting in the construction of a pad adapted to be merely placed on an automobile seat cushion, but so far as I am aware I am the first to use. such .a matting in combination with cloth to provide a covering of the type know as slip cove-rs.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: v
1. A slip cover for automobile seat cushions comprising separate seat and back sections, each formed from a sheet of matting composed of grass, cane or other vegetable fibers cut to the size and shape required to completely cover the wearing surface of the cushion, and a reenforcement of flexible material extending around and secured to the sheet at its edges, the reenforcement of the back section being made of suflicient width to permit the same to be tacked or otherwise secured at its upper and side edges to the back cushion and straps secured to the lower edge of said reenforcement for passing beneath the front cushion, the reenforcement of the seat section being made of sufficient width to provide a valance for concealing the edges of the seat cushion and a shirring cord secured to the free edge of the valance for securing the seat section in place.
