Portable Thermal Seat Cover

Abstract

A portable seat cover that retains a user's thermal energy, and reemits the thermal energy back to the user to negate the need for a thermal energy source. The seat cover overlays an outdoor chair or bench through a pair of flaps that join together. The seat cover include a panel of insulation that has sufficient heat capacity to retain the user's thermal energy, and reemit the thermal energy from the thermal cover back onto the user. The insulation positions inside an external cover, and is comprised of two layers of double bubble polyethylene sandwiched between a metalized aluminum film. The insulation may include an aluminum lightweight, space age design that integrates closed cell foam and reflective technology with a protective poly coating within multiple thin layers. The seat cover is rolled up into a cylindrical shape with elastic bands that attach to the ends of the seat cover.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A thermal cover comprising:
 an external cover, said external cover being configured to overlay a mounting surface;   an insulation portion, said insulation portion comprising a metalized film, said insulation portion further comprising an insulator;   at least one mounting fastener, said at least one mounting fastener being configured to join said thermal cover with said mounting surface; and   at least one rollup fastener, said at least one rollup fastener being configured to secure said thermal cover in a rolled position.   
     
     
         2 . The thermal cover of  claim 1 , in which said insulation portion comprises said insulator sandwiched between two layers of said metalized film. 
     
     
         3 . The thermal cover of  claim 2 , in which said insulator comprises a multiplicity of layers of polyethylene bubbles. 
     
     
         4 . The thermal cover of  claim 3 , in which said metalized film comprises aluminum. 
     
     
         5 . The thermal cover of  claim 4 , wherein said insulator portion utilizes radiant heat to provide warmth throughout said thermal cover. 
     
     
         6 . The thermal cover of  claim 5 , in which said external cover comprises a slit, said slit being configured to provide access to an inside portion of said external cover. 
     
     
         7 . The thermal cover of  claim 6 , wherein said slit secures into a closed position with a fastener. 
     
     
         8 . The thermal cover of  claim 7 , in which said external cover comprises a padding positioned inside said external cover. 
     
     
         9 . The thermal cover of  claim 8 , wherein said padding is configured to rest adjacent to said insulation portion. 
     
     
         10 . The thermal cover of  claim 9 , in which said padding comprises a foam panel. 
     
     
         11 . The thermal cover of  claim 10 , in which said at least one mounting fastener comprises at least one adjustable flap used for joining said external cover to said mounting surface. 
     
     
         12 . The thermal cover of  claim 11 , in which said at least one adjustable flap comprises two fabric panels that join with a fastener. 
     
     
         13 . The thermal cover of  claim 12 , wherein said at least one mounting fastener is fabricated from the same material as said external cover. 
     
     
         14 . The thermal cover of  claim 13 , wherein said at least one mounting fastener is configured as an extension of said external cover. 
     
     
         15 . The thermal cover of  claim 14 , in which said at least one rollup fastener comprises two fabric panels that join with a fastener. 
     
     
         16 . The thermal cover of  claim 15 , wherein said at least one rollup fastener is configured to be sewn within the top portion of a bias tape roll up and secure said thermal cover. 
     
     
         17 . The thermal cover of  claim 16 , wherein said at least one rollup fastener being fabricated from the same material as said external cover. 
     
     
         18 . The thermal cover of  claim 17 , wherein said at least one rollup fastener is configured as an extension of said external cover. 
     
     
         19 . A thermal cover comprising:
 means for unrolling said thermal cover from a rolled up position;   means for positioning said thermal cover onto a mounting surface;   means for securing said thermal cover onto said mounting surface with at least one mounting fastener; and   means for retaining thermal energy in an insulation portion.   
     
     
         20 . A thermal cover consisting of:
 an external cover, said external cover being configured to overlay a mounting surface, said external cover comprising a slit, said slit being configured to provide access to an inside portion of said external cover, said external cover further comprising a padding, said padding being positioned inside said external cover;   an insulation portion, said insulation portion comprising a metalized film, said insulation portion further comprising an insulator, said insulation portion being configured to sandwich said insulator between two layers of said metalized film;   at least one mounting fastener, said at least one mounting fastener being configured to join said thermal cover with said mounting surface, said at least one mounting fastener comprising at least one adjustable flap, said at least one adjustable flap being operable to join said external cover to said mounting surface; and   at least one rollup fastener, said at least one rollup fastener being configured to secure said thermal cover in a rolled position, said at least one rollup fastener comprising at least one fabric panel that join with a fastener.
