WINDOW INSULATION KIT FOR INHABITABLE MULTI-WINDOWED VEHICLES
First Claim
1. A kit for providing window insulation for a multi-windowed inhabitable vehicle, the kit comprising:
- a. a plurality of opaque and insulated window covers, comprising one window cover corresponding to each such window in such multi-windowed inhabitable vehicle, wherein each said window cover is shaped conformally to the shape of a respective said corresponding window and sized to extend beyond the perimeter of said respective said corresponding window;
b. a plurality of couplings operable to couple each window cover of said plurality of window covers to at least one interior surface of said vehicle; and
c. a set of instructions operable to present at least a method of employing said plurality of couplings to couple said plurality of said window covers to at least one interior surface of said vehicle.

Abstract
A window insulation kit comprising a plurality of window covers sized to releasably couple to interior surfaces of an inhabitable multi-windowed vehicle and overlay those windows to create a light-tight and insulating covering of those windows. The basic kit includes the window covers, couplings, instructions, and implements used to assist in installing the window covers. The kit may also include one or more of an inhabitable multi-windowed vehicle, an electric heater, and an electric air conditioner. The kit may also include packaging having a transparent portion to allow the consumer to view the window covers. The window covers may bear decoration, advertising, or other designs. The window covers are preferably opaque in the visible and infrared spectrum.

-
a. a plurality of opaque and insulated window covers, comprising one window cover corresponding to each such window in such multi-windowed inhabitable vehicle, wherein each said window cover is sized to extend beyond the perimeter of said respective said corresponding window; b. a plurality of couplings operable to couple each window cover of said plurality of window covers to at least one interior surface of said vehicle; c. a set of instructions operable to communicate at least a method of employing said plurality of couplings to couple said plurality of said window covers to at least one interior surface of said vehicle; d. an implement for assisting in coupling said plurality of opaque and insulated window covers to said at least one interior surface of said vehicle; and e. wherein said window cover comprises; i. first and second opposed outer layers of a water-resistant fabric sandwiching a multilayer insulating material, wherein said multilayer insulating material comprises soft bulk sufficient to enable said window cover to deform conformally to an edge feature of said window to produce a light-tight perimeter seal at an edge of said window; and ii. a perimeter seam formed in said first and second opposed outer layers of said water-resistant fabric and said multilayer insulating material. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A kit for providing window insulation for a multi-windowed inhabitable vehicle, the kit comprising:
-
a. a plurality of opaque and insulated window covers, comprising one window cover corresponding to each such window in such multi-windowed inhabitable vehicle, wherein; i. each said window cover is shaped conformally to the shape of a respective said corresponding window and sized to extend beyond the perimeter of said respective said corresponding window; and ii. said window cover is opaque to electromagnetic energy in the visible spectrum and in the infrared spectrum; b. a plurality of couplings operable to couple each window cover of said plurality of window covers to at least one interior surface of said vehicle, wherein said plurality of couplings comprises at least one coupling further comprising first and second parts that are releasably attachable to each other, wherein said first releasably attachable part is fixable to said at least one interior surface of said vehicle and said second releasably attachable part is fixable to said window cover; c. a set of instructions operable to present a method of employing said plurality of couplings to couple said plurality of said window covers to at least one interior surface of said vehicle, wherein said set of instructions further comprises at least one of; i. a plurality of templates for arranging said plurality of couplings proximate a corresponding said plurality of windows, wherein said template may be integral to said window cover; and ii. machine washing instructions for washing said window cover; d. an implement for assisting in coupling said plurality of opaque and insulated window covers to said at least one interior surface of said vehicle; and e. wherein said window cover comprises; i. first and second opposed outer layers of a water-resistant fabric sandwiching a multilayer insulating material, wherein; 1. said multilayer insulating material comprises soft bulk sufficient to enable said window cover to deform conformally to an edge feature of said window to produce a light-tight perimeter seal at an edge of said window; and 2. said water-resistant fabric comprises an outer surface adapted to support at least one additional material; ii. a perimeter seam formed in said first and second opposed outer layers of said water-resistant fabric and said multilayer insulating material. - View Dependent Claims (20)
