Removable car seat cover

Abstract

An automotive vehicle seat cover ( 10 ) includes two forms ( 12,14 ) interconnected with a flexible member ( 16 ) which is water and moisture impermeable as well as non-tearable. Optionally, the forms are bent so as to provide concave surfaces facing the underlying seat ( 34 ) and backrest ( 36 ) for stability and slippage retardation. A still further option, are the provision of tabs ( 40,42 ) for receipt within a space between the seat and backrest fixedly positioning the seat cover ( 10 ) in place.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . An automotive vehicle seat cover adapted for being sat upon, comprising: 
 first and second forms, each constructed of a length of flexible springlike material in the shape of a rod folded onto itself in a closed path of a first area;    a flexible sheet member constructed of a liquid impermeable material having a second area exceeding about twice the first area;    first means for securing the outer edge portions of the sheet member to the first and second forms including a generally rectangular strip folded onto itself with two facing sides received onto a form; and    second means for securing the first means to the sheet member in enclosing relation about a form;    the first and second forms being located on the sheet member in spaced apart relation with a centrally located region of the sheet member being free of the forms.    
     
     
         2 . A seat cover as in  claim 1 , in which each of the forms includes a first side that extends transversely of a user and which are located respectively approximately under the knees of the user and a second side located opposite the shoulder blades during use, said first and second sides being convexly curved away from the seat and backrest when unstressed and substantially flat and uncurved when sat and leaned upon.  
     
     
         3 . A seat cover as in  claim 1 , in which spacer guide means are affixed to the centrally located region of the sheet member facing generally toward the seat and backrest in use for removably positioning the seat cover on the seat and retarding slippage.  
     
     
         4 . A seat cover as in  claim 3 , in which the spacer guide means include first and second tabs that are received in the biteline between the backrest and the seat.  
     
     
         5 . A seat cover as in  claim 1 , in which each of the first and second forms is constructed of a length of spring wire bent into desired shape with the opposite ends thereof brought close together, and a clamp is secured about the end portions of the bent wire holding them unitarily together.
