Abstract

A cover for a concrete parking block has a first lateral end, second lateral end and a longitudinal enclosure. The first lateral end and the second lateral end can be either open or closed. The longitudinal enclosure is the same length as the concrete parking block. The protective cover can be made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), Thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO), Acrylonitrile Butadiene styrene (ABS) or foam and resin. The protective cover can also be used to as a bicycle stand. In doing so, the bicycle wheels are inserted into V-shaped slots of the longitudinal enclosure. A water bladder is attached to the protective cover when used as a bicycle stand. A reflective coating is applied on the exterior of the protective cover in order to provide more visibility during low light conditions.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cover for a concrete parking block comprises:
 a first lateral end;   a second lateral end;   a longitudinal enclosure;   a parking block adhesive;   the longitudinal enclosure comprises an inner surface, an outer surface, a first contact edge, and a second contact edge;   the first lateral end and the second lateral end being positioned opposite of each other along the longitudinal enclosure;   the longitudinal enclosure being perimetrically connected around the first lateral end from the first contact edge to the second contact edge;   the longitudinal enclosure being perimetrically connected around the second lateral end from the first contact edge to the second contact edge; and   the parking block adhesive being applied across the inner surface.   
     
     
         2 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 the first lateral end being a closed end; and 
 the parking block adhesive being internally applied to the first lateral end. 
 
     
     
         3 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 2  comprises:
 a reflective coating being externally layered onto the first lateral end. 
 
     
     
         4 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 the second lateral end being a closed end; and 
 the parking block adhesive being internally applied to the second lateral end. 
 
     
     
         5 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 4  comprises:
 a reflective coating being externally layered onto the second lateral end. 
 
     
     
         6 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 the first lateral end being an open end. 
 
     
     
         7 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 the second lateral end being an open end. 
 
     
     
         8 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 the longitudinal enclosure being made of a material selected from the group consisting of high-density polyethylene, thermoplastic polyolefin, and Acrylonitrile Butadiene styrene. 
 
     
     
         9 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 the longitudinal enclosure being made of a foam and resin material. 
 
     
     
         10 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 a reflective coating; and 
 the reflective coating being layered onto the outer surface. 
 
     
     
         11 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 the longitudinal enclosure comprises a plurality of V-shaped slots; 
 the plurality of V-shaped slots being perpendicularly integrated into the longitudinal enclosure; and 
 the plurality of V-shaped slots being distributed along the longitudinal enclosure. 
 
     
     
         12 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 a parking block being conformedly adjoined to the inner surface by the packing block adhesive. 
 
     
     
         13 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 a water bladder; and 
 the water bladder being conformedly adjoined to the inner surface by the parking block adhesive. 
 
     
     
         14 . A cover for a concrete parking block comprises:
 a first lateral end;   a second lateral end;   a longitudinal enclosure;   a parking block adhesive;   a reflective coating being externally layered onto the second lateral end;   the longitudinal enclosure comprises an inner surface, an outer surface, a first contact edge, and a second contact edge;   the first lateral end and the second lateral end being positioned opposite of each other along the longitudinal enclosure;   the longitudinal enclosure being perimetrically connected around the first lateral end from the first contact edge to the second contact edge;   the longitudinal enclosure being perimetrically connected around the second lateral end from the first contact edge to the second contact edge;   the parking block adhesive being applied across the inner surface;   the first lateral end being a closed end;   the parking block adhesive being internally applied to the first lateral end;   a reflective coating being externally layered onto the first lateral end;   the second lateral end being a closed end; and   the parking block adhesive being internally applied to the second lateral end.   
     
     
         15 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 14  comprises:
 a reflective coating; 
 the first lateral end being an open end; 
 the second lateral end being an open end; 
 the longitudinal enclosure being made of a material selected from the group consisting of high-density polyethylene, thermoplastic polyolefin, and Acrylonitrile Butadiene styrene; 
 the longitudinal enclosure being made of a foam and resin material; and 
 the reflective coating being layered onto the outer surface. 
 
     
     
         16 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 14  comprises:
 a parking block being conformedly adjoined to the inner surface by the packing block adhesive; 
 a water bladder; 
 the longitudinal enclosure comprises a plurality of V-shaped slots; 
 the plurality of V-shaped slots being perpendicularly integrated into the longitudinal enclosure;
