Fitted Table Cover

Abstract

A fitted table cover is provided. The device includes a flexible base including at least one elastic member disposed about a perimeter edge of the flexible base. Each elastic member comprises an outwardly tapered configuration such that the elastic members are adapted to adjustably secure to different tabletops and table corners that have varying sizes and angles. Each elastic member is biased towards a compressed state. The compression of the elastic pulls the flexible base against the tabletop so that the device will not blow away in windy or inclement weather conditions.

I claim: 
     
         1 ) A fitted table cover, comprising:
 a flexible base including at least one elastic member disposed about an entire perimeter of the base;   wherein the elastic member comprises an outward taper; and   the elastic member biased towards a compressed state.   
     
     
         2 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 1 , wherein the flexible base is sized and shaped to cover a tabletop and wrap around and under a plurality of tabletop sides. 
     
     
         3 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 1 , wherein the flexible base is fabric. 
     
     
         4 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 1 , wherein the flexible base is plastic. 
     
     
         5 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 1 , wherein the flexible base is fabric-backed vinyl. 
     
     
         6 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 1 , wherein the flexible base is rectangular. 
     
     
         7 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 1 , wherein the flexible base is ovoid. 
     
     
         8 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 1 , wherein the elastic member forms a channel in the base, the channel adapted to receive a tabletop perimeter and a plurality of tabletop sides therein. 
     
     
         9 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 1 , wherein the elastic member is adapted to secure to at least one corner of a tabletop. 
     
     
         10 ) A fitted table cover, comprising:
 a flexible base including a plurality of elastic members disposed on a plurality of corners of the base;   wherein each elastic member comprises an outward taper; and   each elastic member biased towards a compressed state.   
     
     
         11 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 10 , wherein each elastic member is adapted to secure to at least one corner of a tabletop. 
     
     
         12 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 10 , wherein each elastic member forms a pocket, the pocket configured to engulf a corner of the tabletop. 
     
     
         13 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 10 , wherein the flexible base is sized and shaped to cover a tabletop and wrap around and under a plurality of tabletop sides. 
     
     
         14 ) A fitted table cover, comprising:
 a flexible base including at least one elastic member disposed around a perimeter of a first portion of the base, thereby defining a second portion of the base absent the elastic member;   wherein the second portion of the base is sized and shaped to hang down from a tabletop when the flexible base is secured thereto;   each elastic member comprising an outward taper; and   each elastic member biased towards a compressed state.   
     
     
         15 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 14 , wherein each elastic member is adapted to secure to at least one corner of a tabletop. 
     
     
         16 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 14 , wherein each elastic member forms a pocket, the pocket configured to engulf a corner of the tabletop. 
     
     
         17 ) The fitted table cover of  claim 14 , wherein the flexible base is sized and shaped to cover a tabletop and wrap around and under a plurality of tabletop sides.
