Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This relates to a funeral cover that covers the entire body of a corpse placed in a coffin. [Background technology]

[0002] Traditionally, fresh and artificial flowers have been widely used to decorate funeral coffins as a way to show respect for the deceased and enhance their appearance. However, fresh flowers wither over time, making them unsuitable for long-term decoration.

[0003] Therefore, Patent Document 1 discloses a funeral quilt that maintains the water retention of fresh flowers by having the quilt material retain water, so that the fresh flowers absorb the moisture from the quilt cotton, making the fresh flowers look more vibrant. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 6896931 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, procuring fresh flowers to place around or on top of the body can be time-consuming and expensive, and the desired type of flowers can be difficult to obtain, especially depending on the season or region.

[0006] Additionally, using fresh flowers can be expensive, especially for large funerals, where many different types of flowers need to be prepared, which can be a financial burden for the family hosting the funeral.

[0007] Therefore, the objective of the present invention is to provide a funeral cover that can achieve the same visual beauty as fresh flowers placed around the body at a low cost, without the need to procure a wide variety of fresh flowers. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The funeral cover of the present invention is a cloth member that covers the entire body of a corpse placed in a coffin, and is characterized by having a main body made of polyester and an opening in the main body to expose the face of the corpse, and a floral pattern printed on the surface of the main body.

[0009] In addition, in the funeral cover of the present invention, it is preferable that the main body portion has an elastic material provided along the periphery of the opening so that the size of the opening can be freely changed.

[0010] In addition, in the funeral cover of the present invention, it is preferable that the floral design is formed by processing a photograph of the entire fresh flowers taken from above with multiple fresh flowers inserted into an absorbent sponge adjusted to the size of the coffin.

[0011] In addition, in the funeral cover of the present invention, it is preferable that the main body portion is constructed by plain weaving using thin threads so that the back side is transparent. [Effects of the Invention]

[0012] The funeral cover of the present invention eliminates the need to procure fresh flowers that have traditionally been placed around the body, and by covering the entire body instead of fresh flowers, it has the effect of realizing visual beauty similar to that of fresh flowers at a low cost.

[0014] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following, similar elements in all drawings will be designated by the same reference numerals, and duplicate explanations will be omitted. Furthermore, in the description below, previously described reference numerals will be used as necessary.

[0015] An overall view of a funeral cover 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention is shown in Figure 1. The funeral cover 1 according to the present invention is intended to cover the entire body of a corpse placed in a coffin, and as shown in Figure 1, it has a polyester main body 2 that is long in the vertical direction (the vertical direction in the drawing).

[0016] In particular, it is preferable to use "ponge" material, a plain weave fabric made of 100% polyester that is often used for flag banners, as the printed text and images are clearly visible and look good even when viewed from the back.

[0017] Among the various pongee fabrics, it is particularly preferable to use Tetoron (registered trademark) pongee. Tetoron pongee is woven in a plain weave with a thin thread thickness of 75 x 75 denier, and is used for a variety of promotional materials such as flags, curtains, and noren curtains due to its ease of handling and low cost. Tetoron pongee is very light due to the thin thread as mentioned above.

[0018] Tetron Pongee is so thin that it is transparent, with a thickness of 0.14 mm and a weight of approximately 60 g / m 2 Furthermore, Tetron Pongee is a fabric that is suitable for printing, so the colors of photographs and illustrations come out well.

[0019] Furthermore, an opening 3 for exposing the face of the corpse is provided in the main body 2. Details of the main body 2 and the opening 3 will be described below.

[0020] <Main body 2> The main body 2 that forms the funeral cover 1 of the present invention is a fabric member made of polyester. Polyester is wrinkle-resistant and maintains its shape even when stored for long periods of time, allowing the funeral cover 1 to remain beautiful. Polyester is also easy to process and can be made into a variety of designs and shapes.

[0021] Furthermore, the main body 2 can be sized to fit inside the coffin and securely cover the entire body of the corpse (for example, 180 cm in length and 60 cm in width). This allows the corpse to be properly wrapped, as if covered with a veil, giving a natural appearance to funeral attendees. Figure 4 shows an overall view of a funeral cover 11, one embodiment of the present invention, placed inside a coffin HT.

[0022] As shown in Figure 1, the main body 2 has a floral pattern FD printed on at least one surface. The floral pattern FD can be printed on fabric of the same size as the interior dimensions of the coffin using a design created by, for example, inserting actual flowers into an absorbent sponge that is sized to fit the inside of a standard coffin and then photographing the actual flowers from above the coffin.

[0023] Floral pattern FDs printed in this way can function as an alternative to traditional fresh flowers, and their realistic appearance and colors can give a pleasant impression to guests.

[0024] The floral pattern is printed on the main body 2 using direct printing, which is compatible with polyester fabric and has excellent color development due to the large amount of ink used, making it possible to ensure both durability and beauty of the floral pattern FD on the main body 2.

[0025] This allows the floral pattern FD to remain beautiful for a long time without peeling or fading when the funeral cover 1 is used. Furthermore, various floral designs and colors can be freely arranged by printing on the main body 2, making it possible to create a funeral cover 1 that matches the theme and atmosphere of each individual funeral.

[0026] A QR code (registered trademark) can also be printed on a corner of the main body 20. At the funeral parlor, attendees can read the QR code (registered trademark) using various devices such as smartphones, and songs that the deceased loved to listen to when they were alive or songs that they listened to with the deceased's classmates can be played throughout the parlor, allowing attendees to remember the deceased and providing a comforting feeling.

[0027] <Opening 3> Figure 2 shows an enlarged view of the opening 3 (normal state) in the funeral cover 1 shown in Figure 1, and Figure 3 shows an enlarged view of the opening 3 (expanded state) in the funeral cover 1 shown in Figure 1 when deformed (expanded).

[0028] The main body 2 of the funeral cover 1 of the present invention has an opening 3 for revealing the face of the deceased, as shown in Figure 1. The size of the opening 3 can be made circular, for example, with a radius of 15 cm (diameter 30 cm), to fit the size of a standard adult's face.

[0029] This opening 3 is placed at an appropriate position on the main body 2 so that the face of the deceased fits naturally. For example, if the main body 2 is 180 cm long and 60 cm wide, the center of the face can be set 25 cm from the top of the main body 2 (towards the head of the deceased) and 30 cm from either side. This allows funeral attendees to see the face of the deceased regardless of the height of the deceased, and plays an important role in saying one's final goodbyes to the deceased.

[0030] 2, an elastic material 5 can be provided around the periphery 4 of the opening 3. This allows the size of the opening 3 to be freely adjusted, making it possible to flexibly accommodate the size and shape of the face of the corpse, as shown in FIG.

[0031] The elastic material can be a stretch material such as rubber or spandex, which allows the opening 3 to fit the face of the corpse in an appropriate size, allowing the face of the corpse to be clearly exposed.

[0032] In this application, "covering the entire body of the corpse" means covering at least the top surface of the corpse placed in the coffin, i.e., the area from the head to the toes of the corpse that can be seen by funeral attendees.

[0033] Next, we will explain the function of the funeral cover 10 configured as above. Traditionally, funeral decorations using fresh flowers have had several problems. First, fresh flowers wither over time, so if the funeral is prolonged, it is difficult to maintain their beauty.

[0034] In addition, procuring and arranging fresh flowers requires time and money, and it can be difficult to obtain the desired type of flowers, especially during certain seasons or in certain regions. Furthermore, large-scale funerals require many fresh flowers, which can be a significant financial burden. These challenges further complicate funeral preparations and increase the burden on the bereaved.

[0035] The funeral cover 1 of the embodiment of the present invention solves these problems and has several other advantages, as described below. First, the floral pattern printed on the polyester main body 2 allows for the visual beauty of fresh flowers to be achieved at a low cost.

[0036] This reduces the effort and expense involved in procuring and arranging fresh flowers, and even if there are not enough actual fresh flowers or even if there are no flowers at all, the inside of the coffin can be beautifully decorated, which also comforts the feelings of those attending the funeral.

[0037] The funeral cover 1 is designed to cover the entire body of the deceased, giving a natural impression to funeral attendees. In addition, the main body 2 has an opening 3 that exposes the face of the deceased, allowing the face to be seen.

[0038] Furthermore, by using an elastic material for the periphery 4 of the opening 3, it can be flexibly adapted to the size and shape of the face, allowing for a more snug fit.

[0039] Furthermore, the polyester main body 2 is wrinkle-resistant, and among polyesters, Tetron Pongee is suitable. Tetron Pongee is so thin that it is said to show through, and is very light.

[0040] Generally, the body inside the coffin is dressed in funeral clothes, and a funeral cover1 made of polyester pongee is placed over it, and the floral pattern is visible through the white of the funeral clothes, so the unique transparency gives the feeling that the floral pattern is floating softly on top of the body.

[0041] Also, unlike weddings, funerals should not be overly flashy, so the funeral cover 1 has the advantage of showing through to the back, allowing the white color of the funeral clothes to show through, giving the floral pattern a subdued impression.

[0042] Furthermore, terylene pongee is woven in a plain weave with a thin thread thickness of 75 x 75 denier. Because the fabric is easy to handle and inexpensive, it is used for flags, curtains, and noren curtains, and the price can be kept low and mass production can be easily established.

[0043] Furthermore, the funeral cover 1 is made of a thin, lightweight fabric, so it does not feel heavy when draped over the body. Furthermore, polyester is easy to process and can be made into a variety of designs and shapes, so it is possible to create a cover that matches the theme and atmosphere of each individual funeral.

[0044] With these effects, the Funeral Cover 1 can be used as a new alternative to traditional floral decorations, helping to make funeral preparations and proceedings smoother and more efficient. This reduces the burden on the bereaved and enables a beautiful funeral to be held while showing respect for the deceased. [Explanation of symbols]
