Description

1 / 4 “ARRANGEMENT APPLIED TO A PROTECTIVE COVER FOR LADDERS” 1. This invention relates to a novel protective cover for portable ladders made of aluminum, plastic, or similar materials, which are commonly used in construction, repairs, and / or maintenance. The cover, preferably made of waterproof fabric, has a zipper closure and protects the ladder when not in use, preventing it from being damaged or worn, especially if exposed to the elements; it also facilitates its transport, as it has handles that make handling easier and also allows it to be secured in various locations. 2. This cover model is designed to allow for better preservation of the ladder, enabling its user to be used for a longer period, especially if it is a construction / maintenance professional who needs to use it more frequently. Ladders are large and often cannot be stored in a covered location due to lack of space; therefore, the cover was developed to protect them in any situation, even allowing them to be stored suspended, fixed to a wall, or on some other surface. 3. Its handles even allow the ladder to be transported in cars or various vehicles without major difficulties, as the side and top handles allow the ladder to be tied down with ropes and transported safely. 4. The cover can be developed in various sizes, shapes, and materials, varying according to the type / model and size of the ladder. Its coating is preferably waterproof, so that it can protect the ladder from rain or any other situation of contact with water, preventing rust and excessive wear. Petition 870200157836, dated 12 / 16 / 2020, page 4 / 7 2 / 4 5. Its sides and edges are firmer and rubberized, offering greater support and durability to the cover, which, even with some type of contact / friction with the ground or surfaces, will not be torn or damaged quickly. Its closure has a double zipper with protection, preventing it from being exposed so that it does not wear out or rust quickly. 6. The cover can be optionally customized with colors, messages, and promotional text. Drawbacks observed in current products: • Portable ladders, which are commonly used for maintenance, whether by ordinary users or even professionals, end up being damaged or even rusting quickly, precisely because of a lack of care in transportation and storage and exposure to the elements; • Ladders are large and take up a lot of space, so most of the time there is no way to store them carefully; • Currently, there are no known models of ladder covers; many people end up using conventional tarps or some type of protector, but these are not suitable. Solution: 7. With the aim of offering a practical, safe and efficient solution, the protective cover model in question was developed. It also offers several benefits, which can be highlighted as follows: • Practicality; mobility; offers adequate protection for ladders; ease of use, transport and handling; greater durability; reduced costs, as the ladder will last longer. Petition 870200157836, dated 12 / 16 / 2020, page 5 / 7 3 / 4 time and will not require maintenance or even frequent replacement; safety, as it also assists in transportation; avoids hassles; • Low-cost product; environmentally friendly product; can be developed in various fabrics and materials; waterproof material that protects against any situation; can be developed in various shapes and sizes; • High commercialization potential; industrial feasibility; innovations deserving of this patent privilege. State of the art: 8. Currently, there are tarpaulins that cover and protect stairs, and some products that are applied directly to the surface of the stairs to offer greater durability, but no cover model is known that protects according to the model being proposed in this patent application. 9. For a perfect visualization and understanding of the "LAYOUT" "APPLIED IN PROTECTIVE COVER FOR STAIRS", in question, the following are illustrative drawings, where: 10. Fig. 1 - Shows front and side views of the cover; 11. Fig. 2 - Shows a view of the cover next to the stairs; 12. Fig. 3 - Presents an illustrative view of the ladder inside the protective cover; 13. Fig. 4 - Shows front and side views of the longer cover, for a larger ladder model; 14. Fig. 5 - Shows a larger view of the cover next to the ladder; 15. Fig. 6 - Presents an illustrative view of the ladder inside the protective cover, in a larger size; Petition 870200157836, dated 12 / 16 / 2020, page 6 / 7 4 / 4 16. Fig. 7 - Shows views of two cover sizes and a cutout illustrating the opening of its double zipper closure with protection. 17. According to the illustration and its details, the “ARRANGEMENT APPLIED TO A PROTECTIVE COVER FOR LADDERS” consists of a protective cover for portable ladders made of aluminum, plastic and similar materials (1), developed in waterproof fabric (2), which protects the ladder while not in use, preventing it from being damaged or worn, especially if it is exposed to the weather; also facilitating its transport, characterized by being developed in the shape of the ladder (3), provided with a double zipper (4) with protector (5), having its sides and ends firmer and rubberized (6), side handles (7) and top handles (8). 18. And because it has truly innovative characteristics, the "ARRANGEMENT APPLIED TO A PROTECTIVE COVER FOR STAIRS" meets the necessary conditions to merit a Utility Model Patent.
