Abstract

A unitary cushion covering includes a fitted portion for covering a top surface and side surfaces of a cushion. The fitted portion is bonded to a top portion along one end. The top portion may provide a covering element for a person lying on the fitted portion. The fitted portion may include a moisture repellant layer at a top surface of the fitted portion.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A unitary bed covering for a mattress, comprising:
 a fitted portion for covering the mattress, including a moisture resistant layer; and   a top portion bonded to the fitted portion at one end of the fitted portion.   
     
     
         2 . The unitary bed covering of  claim 1 , wherein the fitted portion is configured to cover a top surface of the mattress and four side surfaces of the mattress, and wherein the moisture resistant layer extends over the top surface of the mattress when the unitary bed covering is installed on the mattress. 
     
     
         3 . The unitary bed covering of  claim 1 , wherein the fitted portion is configured to extend to at least partially cover a bottom surface of the mattress, and wherein the fitted portion is held in place on the mattress by elastic elements at edges of the fitted portion when the unitary covering is installed on the mattress. 
     
     
         4 . The unitary bed covering of  claim 1 , wherein the moisture resistant layer includes:
 a waterproof layer; and   a sound absorbent layer.   
     
     
         5 . The unitary bed covering of  claim 1 , wherein the moisture resistant layer includes a padding material. 
     
     
         6 . The unitary bed covering of  claim 1 , wherein the fitted portion includes a fabric layer to which the moisture resistant layer is bonded. 
     
     
         7 . The unitary bed covering of  claim 1 , wherein the top portion is bonded to the fitted portion using a linear seam at the one end of the fitted portion. 
     
     
         8 . The unitary bed covering of  claim 7 , wherein the linear seam extends from one side of the fitted portion to another side of the fitted portion. 
     
     
         9 . A unitary cushion covering, comprising:
 a fitted sheet for covering a cushion, including a moisture repellant layer; and   a top sheet bonded to the fitted sheet at one end of the fitted sheet.   
     
     
         10 . The unitary cushion covering of  claim 9 , wherein the moisture repellant layer includes:
 a waterproof layer; and   a sound absorbent layer.   
     
     
         11 . The unitary cushion covering of  claim 9 , wherein the cushion is a mattress. 
     
     
         12 . The unitary cushion covering of  claim 9 , wherein the top sheet is bonded to the fitted sheet using a linear seam at the one end of the fitted sheet. 
     
     
         13 . The unitary cushion covering of  claim 12 , wherein the linear seam extends fully along the one end of the fitted sheet. 
     
     
         14 . The unitary cushion covering of  claim 12 , wherein the linear seam extends partially along the one end of the fitted sheet. 
     
     
         15 . A method of manufacturing a unitary cushion covering, comprising:
 bonding a fitted portion of the unitary cushion covering with a moisture repellant layer; and   bonding a top portion of the unitary cushion covering to the fitted portion at one end of the fitted portion.   
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein the moisture repellant layer includes:
 a waterproof layer; and   a sound absorbent layer.   
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein the fitted portion covers a top surface of the cushion and four side surfaces of the cushion, and wherein the moisture resistant layer extends over the top surface of the cushion when the unitary cushion covering is installed on the cushion. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein the cushion is substantially rectangular in shape. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein the top portion and the fitted portion are made of fabric, and wherein the bonding further comprises:
 sewing a seam at the one end of the fitted portion.   
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 19 , wherein the seam bonds an edge of the top portion to the fitted portion.
