Description
- Not applicable.
- Not applicable.
- 1. Field of Invention
- The present invention relates to the field of slipcovers for sofas.
- 2. Description of Prior Art
- There are a variety of slipcovers on the market that have attempted to answer the general need for a universal slipcover for a sofa. There are a multitude of reasons for a universal slip cover for a sofa, which reasons include for either style change, color change, protection from dust or spills, or to mask overuse or damage to an existing sofa. Ideally, a universal slipcover should fit snuggly on all sofas, cost a fraction of the cost of a replacement sofa and be easy to install. The problem with existing slipcover designs are that they are not truly universal. With existing slipcovers, there are frequently problems with achieving a “tailored” appearance on a variety of sofa designs. Also, existing designs frequently employ complicated, multi-component designs, fitted arms and “skirts” that discourage achieving a fitted look, and which instead frequently result in wrinkles, awkward folds, and the obvious appearance of a slip cover, which is not a good thing. Loose fitting slipcovers are also annoying to the user of the sofa, because they tend to bunch up under the user of the sofa and result in an undesirable sitting experience. Existing slip technologies fail consumer expectations of comfort and are inferior so that many consumers would just as soon buy a new couch. The present invention offers an alternative to couch-sitting consumers—an alternative adjustable slipcover that is universal in design and elegant in style.
- Accordingly, it is the objective of the present invention to provide an adjustable slipcover that provides a fitted or “tailored” appearance for the user's sofa.
- It is a further object of the present invention to provide a slip cover design that is more truly universal than existing slip cover designs, and which is designed to be rapidly adjusted to fit over a wide array of sofa shapes and styles, including what could be more frequently described as chairs.
- It is a further object of the present invention to provide a slipcover design that is of a one-piece construction, and which does not rely on any fitted arms or skirt features.
- It is a further object of the present invention to provide a slip cover that will have a “tailored” appearance when installed, that is comfortable to the user when sitting and will not bunch up to annoy the user.
- It is a further object of the present invention to provide a slip cover that in most instances should cost less than a replacement sofa, and which will also be useful in changing styles and colors to accommodate a room; which will serve a protective and life-extending function for the user's couch; and which may also be used to cover or conceal overuse or damage to an existing sofa.
- It is a further object of the present invention to provide a slipcover that will be easy to install for the user and of durable construction.
- Other objectives of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art once the invention has been shown and described.
- The manner in which these objectives and other desirable characteristics can be obtained is explained in the following description and attached drawings in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a three-dimensional view of the snug fitting adjustable slipcover as it is typically installed on a two-cushion sofa. -
FIG. 2 is a top view of the snug fitting adjustable slipcover, as it would appear when fully laid out and not installed on the sofa. -
FIG. 3 depicts another embodiment of the slipcover, as it would appear on a three-cushion sofa. -
FIG. 4 depicts the slipcover invention as it would appear on a one cushion sofa chair. - It is to be noted, however, that the appended drawings illustrate only typical embodiments of this invention and are therefore not to be considered limiting of its scope, for the invention may admit to other equally effective embodiments.
-
FIG. 1 is a three-dimensional view of the snug fittingadjustable slipcover 1 as it is typically installed on a two-cushion sofa. As indicated by the drawing, the slipcover is of one-unit commercially available fabric construction, so that the user is not burdened with multiple components that must be pieced together by the user.FIG. 1 depicts a two-cushion sofa, although three-cushion and single-cushion chairs also work with a slightly modified embodiment ofslipcover 1 to accommodate such shapes. A prominent feature of theslipcover 1 shown inFIG. 1 is that it has aleft wing 2 and aright wing 3, both of which wrap around the lower portion of the sofa (beneath the arm-rests) where they fasten to one another behind the sofa by joining of a left connector means 4 and a right connector means 8. Typically, the left connector means 4 and right connector means 8 are made of a synthetic material having both a layer of tiny hooks and a complementary layer of clinging pile, where said layers of material are capable of being pulled apart and pressed together for easy fastening and unfastening, i.e., Velcro®. A variety of other means might also be suitable for fastening theleft wing 2 andright wing 3 to one another at the left connector means 4 and right connector means 8, which means includes but are not limited to buckles, hinges, hooks, clasps, or ties. The left connector means 4 and right connector means 8 may be formed of at least one strap as depicted inFIG. 1 , with a connecting means occurring at the end of such straps. Alternately, the right connector means 8 and left connector means 4 are located directly on the co-joining ends ofleft wing 2 andright wing 3. The left and right wings are typically in the range of 2 to 25 inches in height extending upward from the floor, but preferably are inches in height as this accommodates most commercially available sofa's with the snuggest fit. As depicted onFIG. 1 , the ends of theleft wing 2 andright wing 3, which are not adapted to join one another, are connected to theslipcover 1 atdouble stitch sections 5 that are vertically aligned beneath the sofa arms when theslipcover 1 is applied. Thedouble stitch sections 5 are preferably constructed of a higher quality fabric, and more durable fabric than other portions of theslipcover 1, both for purposes of a stylish appearance and because of the pulling action on this part of the slipcover that occurs when theleft wing 2 andright wing 3 are pulled tautly behind the sofa back and fastened to one another. Alternately, thedouble stitch sections 5 may be preferably of the same material as the rest of the slipcover or folded for double thickness. The twodouble stitch sections 5 are preferably separated by amidsection 10 of theslipcover 1, which is the portion of the slipcover that would be behind a user's calves when he or she sat on the sofa and further which extends upward to the top of the sofa cushions where it meets the edge of thesitting section 16 of theslipcover 1. - The
sitting section 16 defines the part of theslipcover 1 where the user's posterior would rest. It is particularly important that thissitting section 16 be tightly drawn so that the sitter does not have an uncomfortable, bunched-up sitting experience. Realizing this, the inventor has developed atuck pocket 6 that facilitates a snug fit. Thetuck pocket 6 is positioned on theslipcover 1 at a location where two cushions would meet, or alternately where a sofa cushion meets a side of the sofa. Thetuck pocket 6 defines a slight opening at this location so that the user of theslipcover 1 may insert a hand or arm into a pocket that is designed to extend under the sofa cushion for purposes of securing theslipcover 1 to the sofa. Thetuck pocket 6 opening is preferably a slit with a length in the range of 1 to 40 inches in length. Thesame tuck pocket 6 is preferably in the range of 2 to 40 inches deep. Preferably, the end of thetuck pocket 6 may contain a weight, such as sand or a stone, to further secure theslipcover 1, or other fastening means, such as Velcro® affixed to the outside of thetuck pocket 6 end which would fix thetuck pocket 6. There is typically one tuck pocket at each location where sofa cushions meet, but in another preferable embodiment of this invention, a plurality oftuck pockets 6 may also extend from the same location(s) so that at least onetuck pocket 6 might extend under each sofa cushion. Additionally,tuck pockets 6 may be found at arear tuck zone 13, namely where thesitting section 16 meets theseat back section 9. Thesitting section 16 is further adapted to be tucked into the sofa along therear tuck zone 13 andside tuck zone 12, and elastic is preferably positioned onsection 16 to enhance the snugness of the tuck attuck zone 13 andside tuck zone 12. These are manual tucks and do not necessarily benefit from atuck pocket 6, but preferably, such an adaptation of the present invention is contemplated. - Where the
sitting section 16 ends, theseat back section 9 begins, with theseat back section 9 forming the portion of the slipcover where a users back would rest. This seat backsection 9 wraps over the front portion of the sofa and merges into therear section 17 of theslipcover 1 that would cover the entire back of the sofa. Therear section 17 defines an edge slit 7 occurring near where a sofa back would meet a sofa side. This edge slit 7 allows therear section 17 of theslipcover 1 to form a flap extending to the floor, but underneath which flap theleft wing 2 andright wing 3 of theslipcover 1 join to one another by left 4 and right connector means 8 to tighten theslipcover 1 to the sofa. After theleft wing 2 andright wing 3 are joined and theslipcover 1 is secure, therear section 17 that formed the flap is folded down and preferably fastens by fastening means 11 to either the sofa back or the wall facing sides of theleft wing 2 andright wing 3. This fastening means 11 is preferably of the hook and loop Velcro® variety, but other means are also contemplated, including but not limited to buckles, fasteners, hinges, hooks, buttons, clasps or ties. Therear section 17 that comprises the flap shape is also important for presentation because it makes for a “cleaner” appearance for the sofa back, which in many decorative instances is not against a wall, but rather is in open view. Thus, theslipcover 1 further avoids a cheap and tacky looking sofa back. -
FIG. 1 also shows the locations where the remainingfabric comprising slipcover 1, referred to as theremnant sections 18, must be folded to affect a neat appearance, namely on the portion of theslipcover 1 covering the sofa sides, beneath the armrests (side folds 14), and covering the armrest, and at the front folds 15 occurring at the armrest ends.Left wing 2 andright wing 3 cover theremnant sections 18 under the armrest; however, the sofa user must fold theremnant sections 18 at side folds 14 andfront fold 15. -
FIG. 2 provides a secondary top view of the snug fittingadjustable slipcover 1. The principal benefit of this second drawing is that one can see the various sections comprising thesingle unit slipcover 1 as it would appear laid out on the floor prior to being fitted to a sofa. Unlike other designs, thisslipcover 1 is easy to store by folding and it does not require fitting together of separate pieces. -
FIG. 3 and 4 show alternate preferable embodiments of this invention, however, where it is applied to a single-cushion, and a triple-cushion sofa. In all other respects the invention is the same as preferably described in the detailed description forFIGS. 1 and 2 . The invention still has the wrap around feature and the tuck pockets 6 that help insure a snug fit on virtually any commercially available sofa. On the single-cushion design, one or more tuck pockets 6 would preferably be located at least one of three edges of the sittingsection 16, namely where the sittingsection 16 meets the base of the armrests and the seat backsection 9 begins.
