Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for assisting the covering of a duvet by a cover and aid in the stretching of a sheet, and a kit comprising at least two of these devices.
  • Stretching a wrinkled sheet requires two people when the sheet is large.
  • the document GB-A-2,247,169 discloses a device for assisting the recovery of a duvet by a cover.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a device for assisting the covering of a duvet with a cover and aid in stretching a sheet that does not have the drawbacks of the prior art and which in particular allows one person to perform both operations.
  • the movable element is shaped so as to return to its free position under its own weight.
  • the first nip surface is flat.
  • each nip surface is covered with a non-slip material.
  • the fastening means comprise a shoe adapted to be fixed on the support, a foot integral with the base, said shoe and said foot having complementary securing means which allow to removably fasten the foot with the shoe.
  • the complementary securing means comprise two protuberances that the foot comprises, a groove formed in said shoe and provided to allow the insertion of the foot in a direction of implementation, and two stops that said shoe comprises and at the rear which said protrusions bear when the foot is inserted into the groove to prevent removal of said foot in a direction opposite to said direction of establishment.
  • the dimensions of the foot, protuberances, groove and stops are such that, when in the groove, the foot can move in a direction of offset perpendicular to said direction of implementation.
  • the aid device comprises a spring element designed to constrain the foot in the direction of shift.
  • the invention also proposes a kit comprising two devices for assisting the covering of a duvet with a cover and aid in stretching a sheet according to one of the preceding variants.
  • the base 102 has a shaft on which is fitted the movable member 106 which is held on the shaft by a holding means, such as a screw, clips, etc.
  • the dimensions of the movable member 106 are such that the distance between the two nip surfaces 104 and 108 allows the insertion of the duvet and its cover.
  • the movable member 106 may not reach the pinch position due to the thickness of the duvet and its cover, but it reaches a intermediate position in which the second nip surface 108 tightens the quilt and its cover against the first pinch surface 104.
  • the position of the center of gravity of the movable element 106, and therefore its shape, are such that, under its own weight, when the aid device 100 is fixed on said support, the movable element 106 remains in the free position.
  • no particular element is necessary to keep the two pinch surfaces 104 and 108 at a distance, which facilitates the use of the aid device 100, since the user does not need to separate the two pinch surfaces 104 and 108 before to introduce the duvet and its cover.
  • the movable member 106 is shaped to return to the free position under its own weight.
  • the movable element 106 is a cylinder of revolution whose axis is off-axis with respect to the axis of rotation 110. But, the shape of the movable element 106 can be different.
  • the pinch and the blocking of the quilt and its cover are made because of the friction of the cover on the movable member 106 which tend to pass it in the pinch position by causing it to rotate.
  • the user releases the two pinched corners only by releasing each movable element 106 successively. This release is effected by pulling slightly on the pinched corner in the insertion direction (arrow 120). , which allows to loosen the two pinch surfaces 104 and 108 by repositioning in the free position of the movable member 106 under its own weight. The wedge can then be removed from the help device 100.
  • the two help devices 100 To best position the cover, the two help devices 100 must be at such a distance that the quilt and its cover are stretched between them.
  • each base 102 may be fixed for example on the frame of the bed on each side of the mattress.
  • the frame of the bed then serves as support.
  • Fixing can be done by gluing, screwing, etc.
  • the fastening means are then constituted by a surface of the base 102, holes made in the base 102, screws, ...
  • each nip surface 104, 108 may be covered with a non-slip material, for example rubber.
  • the first pinch surface 104 is flat.
  • the fixing means comprise a shoe 150 which is shown on the Figs. 1b and 2b and a foot 112 integral with the base 102 and intended to cooperate with the shoe 150.
  • the shoe 150 and the foot 112 comprise complementary securing means that removably fasten the foot 112 to the shoe 150.
  • This may be for example a dovetail attachment.
  • the shoe 150 which is reduced in size relative to the rest of the aid device 100 is fixed on the support such as for example the frame of the bed in a non-visible place, for example by gluing, screwing, etc.
  • the base 102 is then not fixed directly on the support but it is by means of the shoe 150.
  • the shoe 150 has a groove 152 which is through and in which the foot penetrates 112 in a direction of implementation 160 which is here oriented to the left of the sheet.
  • the foot 112 To avoid inadvertent withdrawal of the foot 112 in a direction opposite to the direction of establishment 160, it has two protuberances 114a and 114b and the groove 152 has two stops 154a and 154b to the rear of which the protuberances 114a and 114b come in support when the foot 112 is introduced into the groove 152.
  • the complementary securing means thus comprise the two protuberances 114a and 114b, the groove 152 and the two stops 154a and 154b.
  • the dimensions of the foot 112 are such that when in the groove 152, the foot 112 can move in a perpendicular offset direction 162 (here upwards on the sheet) in the direction of placement 160 of the foot 112 in the groove 152 and which allows move the foot 112 between the stops 154a and 154b.
  • the establishment of the foot 112 is effected by the introduction of a first protrusion 114a, 114b in the groove 152 and its placement behind the first stop 154a, 154b corresponding, then by the movement of the foot 112 in the offset direction 162, then by the introduction of the second protrusion 114b, 114a in the groove 152 and its placement behind the second stop 154b, 154a corresponding, and the movement of the foot 112 in the opposite direction to the previous 162 shift direction.
  • a spring member 156 constrains the foot 112 in the offset direction 162.
  • the spring element 156 is here a torsion spring fixed in the shoe 150 by threading on a screw.
  • the removal of the foot 112 from the shoe 150 consists, for the user, in moving the foot 112 in the offset direction 162 against the force exerted by the spring element 156, then to pull out the protrusion 114b opposite to said spring element 156, then to take out the protrusion 114a located on the side of the spring element 156.
  • the invention has been more particularly described in the case of the establishment of a cover on a duvet, but it applies in the same way to stretch a wrinkled sheet by pinching two corners of the sheet in two devices aid according to the invention.
