Benefits of technology

[0007]In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the at least one barrier may be releasably attached to a horizontal support member at its top edge. Such horizontal support member would provide support to the at least one barrier across the length of the at least one barrier. In a preferred embodiment, the horizontal support member may rotate about the axis of the vertical support member. In such embodiment, the user may rotate the horizontal member support so that in its deployed position wherein the horizontal member support extends along the longitudinal plane of the bed so that the horizontal support member and the at least one barrier are positioned along the central median vertical plane of the bed. In the deployed position, the at least one barrier provides privacy between the two sides of the bed. The user may also rotate the horizontal support member so that in its resting position, the horizontal member support and the at least one barrier are positioned to be parallel to the head board or wall located behind the bed. In the resting position, the horizontal support member places the at least one barrier out of the sight of the users as they are laying in bed. The benefit of such novel invention is that the at least one barrier is able to be rotated and moved and not forced to be always in a fixed position.
[0008]The at least one vertical support member of the present invention would extend vertically at one end from the base structure to the opposite end to be releasably attached to the at least one dividing barrier. In a preferred embodiment, the at least one dividing barrier includes an open-ended sleeve along the edge of the at least one barrier most proximal to the head portion of the bed. The at least one vertical support is positioned to extend vertically within such s

DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS OF THE DRAWINGS

[0033]The present invention as illustrated in FIG. 1, shown generally at 1, is a novel device that provides privacy between individuals sharing a bed and is comprised of at least one dividing barrier 3 which is attached at one end to at least one vertical support member 5 and wherein such vertical support 5 extends vertically from a base support structure 7.

[0034]The at least one dividing barrier 3 is comprised of a flexible barrier for shielding light rays from one side of the bed to the other side. The at least one barrier 3 may be comprised of any lightweight material that is not light permeable.

[0035]As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, in one embodiment of the invention, the at least one dividing barrier 3 may be shaped as a pennant, flag or right-angle triangle shape wherein the at least one barrier 3 is angled and tapers at the end of the at least one barrier that is distal to the head portion of the bed. The at least one barrier 3 is releasably ...

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a bed dividing barrier in order to provide at least one of the individuals in a bed privacy or to limit the amount of light from one side of the bed to the other.BACKGROUND ART[0002]There are many instances where couples and individuals sharing a bed may want to have some privacy while sleeping in the same bed. One individual may want to read a book, an electronic tablet, or a computer, or watch television while the other individual sharing the bed wishes to sleep. A dividing barrier to divide the bed would allow individuals to do their desired activities while not interfering with the other person sharing the bed. Another benefit of having a dividing barrier to divide the bed is the curtain would provide means to limit light entering from one side of the bed to the other.[0003]U.S. Pat. No. 6,510,572 discloses the use of a triangular flag suspended from its top point to a wall. One disadvantage of that prior art reference...
