Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to bedding, and more particularly to a futon set that is used in combination with a comforter and a futon cover.
Background Art
[0002] Generally, there are multiple types of comforters, such as single comforters, double comforters, and skin comforters, with different thicknesses and heat retention properties, which are used appropriately according to the season, room temperature, living environment, and the user's physical sensation.
[0003] These comforters are usually used while being housed in a futon cover from the viewpoints of maintaining hygiene, improving the touch, and imparting design. In particular, for relatively thick and heavy comforters, if displacement or uneven distribution occurs inside the futon cover, it is likely to affect the comfort and appearance.
[0004] Conventionally, when housing a comforter in a futon cover, a configuration is widely adopted in which the comforter is inserted through an opening provided on the side or end of the futon cover, and locking members such as strings, snap buttons, surface fasteners, or belts provided at the four corners of the futon cover are coupled to loops or the like on the comforter side.
[0005] However, with such a conventional configuration, the operation of arranging the posture while inserting the bulky comforter into the futon cover is complicated, and particularly for large-sized ones, the work burden for one person is large. Also, in a configuration where only the four corners are fixed, it may be difficult to sufficiently suppress the displacement in the middle of the side.
[0006] Furthermore, depending on the season, there may be a case where it is desired to use a skin comforter or the like in addition to a single comforter, but conventionally, a configuration for stably combining multiple comforters with one futon cover has not been sufficiently considered.
Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0007] Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide a bedding set that facilitates the process of storing a comforter in and taking it out of a comforter cover, and that can securely fasten the comforter.
[0008] Furthermore, this invention aims to improve the sense of security and suppress shifting or slipping during use by allowing the comforter to be secured not only at the four corners but also along the longitudinal edges.
[0009] Furthermore, this invention aims to enable flexible combinations according to the season or usage by allowing a separate comforter to be secured to the same comforter cover, in addition to the comforter that is housed within the cover. [Means for solving the problem]
[0010] To solve the above problems, the bedding set according to the present invention comprises a bedding cover having a cutout or opening / closing part in the longitudinal direction of the upper surface, with one opening each on the four corners and a pair of longitudinal sides, and a locking member provided at each opening, and a comforter having one engaging part each on the four corners and a pair of longitudinal sides corresponding to each opening.
[0011] Furthermore, if necessary, an additional comforter may be provided, and this additional comforter may also have engaging parts at each of the four corners corresponding to each opening and at each of the pair of longitudinal sides.
[0012] The engaging portion is preferably a ring-shaped portion or a loop portion through which the locking member passes. Furthermore, the locking member is preferably a string or belt and has a fastening portion by a button, snap button, or hook-and-loop fastener.
[0013] Furthermore, it is preferable that the opening and closing portion is provided along the longitudinal direction in the center of the upper surface of the duvet cover. This makes it easier to insert the duvet by distributing it to the left and right, and makes it easier to reach the openings at the four corners and along the longitudinal edges. [Effects of the Invention]
[0014] According to this invention, since an opening and closing section is provided along the longitudinal direction of the upper surface of the duvet cover, it is easier to insert the duvet than with conventional methods, improving work efficiency.
[0015] Furthermore, in addition to the four corners of the duvet cover, openings and locking members are also provided along the longitudinal edges, and corresponding engaging parts are provided on the duvet side. As a result, the sense of security is higher compared to cases where only the four corners are used for fastening, and it is easier to prevent shifting during use.
[0016] Furthermore, in a configuration with separate comforters, one comforter can be placed inside the comforter cover while another comforter is secured over the cover, enabling a more flexible usage pattern than before.
[0017] Therefore, according to this invention, it is possible to provide a futon set that is highly convenient for storage, securing, and changing combinations according to the season. [Brief explanation of the drawing]
[0018] [Figure 1] This is a schematic plan view of a futon cover according to one embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 2] This is a plan view showing the comforter according to one embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 3] This is a plan view showing a thin comforter as an example of a separate comforter according to one embodiment of the present invention. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0019] The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Note that the embodiments shown below are illustrative and the present invention is not limited to these.
[0020] As shown in Fig. 1, the futon cover 1 is provided with an opening / closing part 2 that can be opened and closed by a fastener along the longitudinal direction at the center of its upper surface. Further, openings 3 are provided at the four corners of the futon cover 1, and openings 4 are provided at substantially the central parts on both longitudinal sides. Note that in the drawing, for the sake of understanding the invention, the opening 3 is shown as an opening cut diagonally large, but it is not limited to the shape and size, and openings may be provided on the side surfaces of the four corners so that it is configured to be rectangular in plan view. The same applies to the opening 4.
[0021] Locking members are provided in each of the openings 3 and 4. The locking member is, for example, a belt member or a string member, and fixing parts by buttons, snap buttons or surface fasteners may be provided at the tip or both ends thereof.
[0022] In the futon 5 shown in Fig. 2, belt parts 6 are provided as engaging parts at positions corresponding to the openings 3 and 4 of the futon cover 1, that is, at the four corners, and a ring part 7 is provided at the center on both longitudinal sides. By passing the locking member through the belt part 6 and the ring part 7, the futon 5 can be fixed to the futon cover 1.
[0023] In a separate futon cover, for example, a skin futon cover 8 shown in Fig. 3, a belt part 9 as an engaging part is provided at a position corresponding to the openings 3 and 4 of the futon cover 1. Ring parts 10 are provided on both longitudinal sides. Thus, the skin futon cover 8 can also be fixed to the futon cover 1 through the locking member in the same manner.
[0024] In use, first, open the opening / closing part 2 of the futon cover 1, and insert the futon 5 into the futon cover 1. Since the opening / closing part 2 is provided along the longitudinal direction at the center of the upper surface, the futon cover can be introduced inside by spreading the futon left and right, and it is also easy to align it with the corners.
[0025] Next, the user inserts their hands through openings 3 and 4 and secures the locking members by passing them through the band portion 6 and ring portion 7 of the comforter 5. Because it can be secured not only at the four corners but also along the longitudinal edges, it is easier to suppress displacement in the middle of the comforter's edges.
[0026] Furthermore, if necessary, the thin blanket 8 can be placed on top of the duvet cover 1 and secured by passing the locking members through the band portion 9 and the ring portion 10. This allows one duvet to be placed inside the duvet cover and another duvet to be placed on the outside of the duvet cover.
[0027] With this configuration, the combination can be flexibly changed according to the user's preference, such as using both the main comforter 5 and the lighter comforter 8 during colder periods, and using only one of them during relatively warmer periods.
[0028] Furthermore, by providing the opening 4 and locking member on the longitudinal side, the worker's hands can easily reach the middle of the side when storing the comforter, making it easier to adjust the comforter's position and secure it.
[0029] Furthermore, the specific shape of the engaging portion is not limited to a ring shape; it can be any shape that can be secured by passing the locking member through it, such as a string-like loop, a strip-like loop, or a loop formed by folding a piece of fabric. Also, the specific configuration of the locking member is not limited to a belt; it can be any shape that can be detachably engaged with the engaging portion on the comforter side, such as a string, tape-like member, or narrow strip-like member.
[0030] The size, shape, and position of openings 3 and 4 can be set as appropriate, and slit-shaped, arc-shaped, rectangular, or other shapes can be adopted.
[0031] For the material of the duvet cover 1, linen, cotton, cotton-linen blend, polyester blend, and other common bedding materials can be used.
[0032] As described above, according to this invention, by devising the structure of the duvet cover and the arrangement of the engagement parts on the duvet side, it is possible to provide a duvet set that is excellent in terms of storage, fixation, and flexibility in usage.
