Cushy blanket

Abstract

The bead duvet represents a unique blanket, comforter or duvet formed from soft fabric material including heat expanded polystyrene beads as the insulation contained within. The characteristics of this insulation create a unique feeling of comfort and support not available in traditional blankets, comforters or duvets. The sewing pattern will create the structure and contour of the invention, a duvet with an equal distribution of insulation through out.

       7 . For use in providing warmth, comfort and support to human beings, a duvet comprising:
 A fabric casing consisting of two equally shaped and sized fabric sheets sewn with thread around the perimeter, and sewn with equal pattern sections through out in entirety.   Heat expanded polystyrene bead insulation providing warmth, comfort and support.   A removable and washable cover made of fabric providing protection to the invention during intended usage.   Said fabric casing may be manufactured using any woven natural or man-made fabric type. The casing including a lower side and upper congruent side is sewn together with thread in overlying opposing relation to said lower side.   Said removable and washable cover may be manufactured using any woven natural or man-made fabric type either cleaned by machine washing or dry cleaning methods. This cover is comprised of a button system connecting the invention to the cover.   Said button system which is a component of the removable and washable cover may be manufactured using any type of button system including but not limited to traditional buttons serving as a fastening when passed through a buttonhole or loop for connection, or a snap button which fasten together when pressured is applied.   
   
   
       8 . A duvet as set forth in  claim 7  wherein said pattern sections refer to the equal sections created through-out the invention by sewing the fabric casing together, creating the structure of the invention by locking in an equal amount of insulation within each pattern section through-out the entire invention, that is not manipulated in response to pressure exerted on the exterior of the invention. 
   
   
       9 . A duvet as set forth in  claim 7  wherein said proposed warmth, comfort, and support is determined by and therefore altered by the size, density, and ratio of area of beads to area of pattern section. The smaller diameter of the beads, the less friction within pattern sections. The higher density, the heavier the invention which increases the warmth characteristic. The higher ratio of area of beads to area of pattern section, the more rigid the invention will become due to immobility of beads.
