Abstract

A retractable vehicle seat cover device for covers a vehicle seat preventing debris from getting onto or into the vehicle seat. The device includes a housing comprising a top wall, a bottom wall, and a perimeter wall extending between and around the top wall and the bottom wall defining an interior space. The housing is configured for coupling to a vehicle seat. A slot extends through the housing into the interior space. A roller mechanism is coupled to the housing and positioned in the interior space. A cover has a first end coupled to the roller mechanism wherein the cover is selectively extendable from and retractable onto the roller mechanism. The cover is extendable through the slot wherein the cover is configured for covering the vehicle seat. A retainer is coupled to the cover and configured for holding the cover in a position covering the vehicle seat.

Claims

1. A retractable vehicle seat cover device comprising:

a housing comprising a top wall, a bottom wall, and a perimeter wall extending between and around said top wall and said bottom wall defining an interior space, said housing being configured for coupling to a vehicle seat;

a slot extending through said housing into said interior space;

a roller mechanism coupled to said housing and positioned in said interior space;

a cover having a first end coupled to said roller mechanism wherein said cover is selectively extendable from and retractable onto said roller mechanism, said cover being extendable through said slot wherein said cover is configured for covering said vehicle seat; and

a retainer coupled to said cover, said retainer being configured for holding said cover in a position covering the vehicle seat.

2. The device of claim 1, further comprising said retainer being a hood having a perimeter edge defining an opening into a cavity configured for receiving a top of the vehicle seat such that said cover extends over a front side of the vehicle seat.

3. The device of claim 1, further comprising said retainer being a portion of hook and loop fastener coupled to a face of said cover proximate a distal end of said cover relative to said roller mechanism.

4. The device of claim 3, further comprising said retainer comprising a second portion of hook and loop fastener, said second portion of hook and loop fastener being complementary to said first portion of hook and loop fastener, said second portion of hook and loop fastener being configured for coupling to the vehicle seat.

5. The device of claim 4, further comprising said second portion of hook and loop fastener being a loop portion.

6. The device of claim 1, further comprising a mounting bracket coupled to and extending from said top wall of said housing.

7. The device of claim 6, further comprising:

said mounting bracket having an extension section and a connection section; and

a plurality of apertures extending through said connection section.

8. The device of claim 6, further comprising said mounting bracket being one of a pair of said mounting brackets.

9. A retractable vehicle seat cover device comprising:

a housing comprising a top wall, a bottom wall, and a perimeter wall extending between and around said top wall and said bottom wall defining an interior space, said housing being configured for coupling to a vehicle seat;

a slot extending through said housing into said interior space;

a roller mechanism coupled to said housing and positioned in said interior space;

a cover having a first end coupled to said roller mechanism wherein said cover is selectively extendable from and retractable onto said roller mechanism, said cover being extendable through said slot wherein said cover is configured for covering said vehicle seat;

a retainer coupled to said cover, said retainer being configured for holding said cover in a position covering the vehicle seat; and

a mounting bracket coupled to and extending from said top wall of said housing, said mounting bracket having an extension section and a connection section, a plurality of apertures extending through said connection section, said mounting bracket being one of a pair of said mounting brackets.

10. The device of claim 9, further comprising said retainer being a hood having a perimeter edge defining an opening into a cavity configured for receiving a top of the vehicle seat such that said cover extends over a front side of the vehicle seat.

11. The device of claim 9, further comprising said retainer comprising a first portion of hook and loop fastener coupled to a face of said cover proximate a distal end of said cover relative to said roller mechanism, said retainer comprising a second portion of hook and loop fastener, said second portion of hook and loop fastener being complementary to said first portion of hook and loop fastener, said second portion of hook and loop fastener being configured for coupling to the vehicle seat, said second portion of hook and loop fastener being a loop portion.
