Dual function bed cover

Abstract

A dual function bed cover for a bed comprising an overlapping left section and right section, and a flap attached to the bottom edge or proximate the bottom thereof. Each section may be at least partially separated from the other during use and removed from atop a user without causing undue disruption to the placement of the remaining section of the bed cover atop a different user. The flap can be tucked beneath the mattress during use for stability and may be constructed to avoid unnecessary restriction of foot movement.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]A common source of tension between couples sharing a bed is the use of bed covers. Some people prefer to bundle up while in the bed, while others favor sleeping without much covering their body. Generally, those who prefer not to use bed covers and the like will take their portion of the bed cover, comforter, or other linen and place it atop their mate who is already bundled up. The mate is then uncomfortable due to excess warmth and restricted movement caused by the bulkiness of the excess bed linens, and their placement.[0002]As such, a need exists for a bed cover that gives those sharing a bed the ability to independently use the bed cover as they see fit, without inconveniencing each other, and that provides enhanced comfort.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0003]A dual function bed cover for a bed set is provided that allows two individuals to more easily share a bed when they have different preferences for bed covers. The bed cover includes a left secti...

Benefits of technology

[0003]A dual function bed cover for a bed set is provided that allows two individuals to more easily share a bed when they have different preferences for bed covers. The bed cover includes a left section, a right section, and a flap attached to a bottom edge of those sections. The sections overlap about their proximal edges to create an overlap that makes it easier when one party removes one section of the bed cover. The other section will remain relatively in the same position, preventing discomfort to the party continuing to use the bed cover. In one embodiment, the two sections are removably attached about their proximal edges by at least one means for attachment. The flap is of a length sufficient to permit tucking the flap beneath the mattress in order to maintain placement of the bed cover. In one embodiment, the flap is narrower, at the point of attachment to the two sections of the bed cover, than the width of the mattress so as to permit freer movement of the users' feet.

The mate is then uncomfortable due to excess warmth and restricted movement caused by the bulkiness of the excess bed linens, and their placement.
