The drop and alternative embodiments of the invention, 4 serves three useful purposes. First, it is a deco- 55 Fig. 1 is a perspective view of my improved rative element, secondly, it obscures the detach- 56 able fastening means of the valance, and third,
it serves as an overhang at the sides and end of the bed to protect individuals sleeping thereunder from exposure of air which would otherwise creep g in due to their bodies elevating a portion of the cover.-
This detachable means may preferably comprise a slide fastener arrangement 6 as shown in Fig. 2 or a hook and clasp arrangement I as shown in Fig. 3. However, it is possible to utilize still other detachable-fastening means to advantage, as the scope of the claims may define.
When the detachable means comprises a slide fastener, I fasten the valance 3 through the medium of the tape 8 provided with the male portions to the strip 9 provided with the female portions and in turn secure the strip 8 to the under side of the comforter at the juncture of the drop I therewith. The slide fastener is well known as a fastening means and when incorporated in the present invention provides for quick detachability and attachabillty by the chambermaid when the bed is laid and dressed.
This slide fastener feature may, however, be
g; dispensed with in favor of the detachable fastening means comprising the clasp l8 and hook ll shown in Fig. 3, when the advantage of utilizing the clasp II for hooking the sheet I! shown in Fig. 4 to prevent the comforter from slipping off so the bed or becoming disarranged is afforded The clasps II depend from an elastic l3 stitched to the under side of the comforter at the same juncture as that at which the strip 9 is stitched.-
when undue strain is placed on the sheet, the 3 elastics will yield so as not to rupture delicate fabrics to which they may be applied.
In Fig. 4 the clasps ll adjacent the corners of the mattress I! may suiilce for holding the comforter from slipping. However, as many clasps 40 as desired may be selected to assure a non-shift of the slippable garment.
In some instances, the drop or marginal portion 4 will be constructed of a different thickness of material than the comforter portion-covering the bed proper as shown in Fig. 4 and may be defined apart from the body portions by longitudinal seams l8 extending from end to end of the comforter, since little warmth is necessary along the rails of the bed. When not constructed so thick, it may be adapted to drape more closely in comformity with the valance hanging below it. This result is due to the fact that the marginal portion is united to the body portion along the line of flexure possessing a greater flexibility -than the body portion of said comforter. The valance strip 3 is attachable to the underside of the marginal portion 4 in a spaced relation to its free edge.
It should be understood that the present disclosure is for the purpose of illustration only and that this invention includes all modifications and equivalents which fall within the scope of the subject matter claimed.
What I claim is:
1. A comforter consisting of a body portion comprising upper and lower sheets of material with stuillng or padding therebetween, said sheets of material being extended beyond the side edges of said body portion to form drops integral therewith, said drops being defined apart from the body portion by longitudinal seams extending fromend to end of said comforter, said drops having thinner padding than said body portion, and a valance detachably secured to said comforter along the line of juncture of said drop and said body portion.
2. A comforter comprising a body portion, and
a marginal portion united thereto along a line of flexure possessing greater flexibility than the body portion of said comforter, and a valance strip attachable to the under side of said marginal portion in a spaced relation to its free edge.
