Cover for a Concrete Parking Block

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.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cover for a concrete parking block comprising:
 a longitudinal enclosure;   a plurality of protrusions;   a precipitation-diverting cap;   the longitudinal enclosure comprising an inner surface, an outer surface, a first contact edge and a second contact edge;   the plurality of protrusions being positioned along the longitudinal enclosure;   the plurality of protrusions being connected adjacent and across the inner surface;   the precipitation-diverting cap being connected along the longitudinal enclosure across the outer surface; and   the precipitation-diverting cap being positioned equidistant from the first contact edge and the second contact edge.   
     
     
         2 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising:
 the outer surface further comprises a first lateral portion, a first angular portion, an uppermost portion, a second angular portion, and a second lateral portion; 
 the first angular portion being terminally connected along the first lateral portion at a first lower interior angle; 
 the uppermost portion being terminally connected to the first angular portion at a first upper interior angle; 
 the second angular portion being terminally connected along the uppermost portion at a second upper interior angle; 
 the second lateral portion being terminally connected along the second angular portion at a second lower interior angle; and 
 the precipitation-diverting cap being connected along the uppermost portion in between the first angular portion and the second angular portion. 
 
     
     
         3 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the first lower interior angle and the first upper interior angle are configured to orient the first lateral portion and the uppermost portion. 
     
     
         4 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the second lower interior angle and the second upper interior angle are configured to orient the second lateral portion and the uppermost portion. 
     
     
         5 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the first lower interior angle is equal to the second lower interior angle. 
     
     
         6 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the first upper interior angle is equal to the second upper interior angle. 
     
     
         7 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising:
 a parking-block attachment mechanism; and 
 the parking-block attachment mechanism being integrated across the longitudinal enclosure. 
 
     
     
         8 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 7  further comprising:
 the parking-block attachment mechanism being a parking block adhesive; and 
 the parking block adhesive being layered across the inner surface and amongst the plurality of protrusions. 
 
     
     
         9 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 7  further comprising:
 the parking-block attachment mechanism being a plurality of concrete screws; and 
 the plurality of concrete screws traversing through the longitudinal enclosure. 
 
     
     
         10 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the precipitation-diverting cap is a triangular profile. 
     
     
         11 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the precipitation-diverting cap is a dome shape. 
     
     
         12 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the precipitation-diverting cap is a curved profile. 
     
     
         13 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising:
 the longitudinal enclosure being made of a material selected from the group consisting of high-density polyethylene, thermoplastic polyolefin, and Acrylonitrile Butadiene styrene. 
 
     
     
         14 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the longitudinal enclosure being made of a foam and resin material. 
     
     
         15 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising:
 a reflective coating; and 
 the reflective coating being layered onto the outer surface. 
 
     
     
         16 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising:
 the inner surface being adapted to be confirmedly adjoined with a parking block by the parking-block attachment mechanism. 
 
     
     
         17 . The cover for a concrete parking block as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising:
 a hydrophobic coating; and 
 the hydrophobic coating being externally layered onto the precipitation-diverting cap.
