Abstract

A portable seat cover device facilitates carrying of a seat cover to position over public chairs. The device includes a cover having a front face, a back face, and a perimeter edge extending around and between the front face and the back face. A bag is coupled to and extends from the perimeter edge of the cover. The bag has a peripheral edge defining an opening into an interior space of the bag. The cover is selectively positionable to occupy the interior space of the bag. A flap is coupled to the peripheral edge of the bag and is selectively extendable over the opening of the bag. A resilient member is coupled to the flap extending around a free edge of the flap. The resilient member engages the cover and the bag inhibiting the cover from coming out of the interior space of the bag.

Claims

1. A portable seat cover device comprising:

a cover having a front face, a back face, and a perimeter edge extending around and between said front face and said back face;

a bag, a peripheral wall of said bag having a peripheral edge defining an opening into an interior space of said bag, said cover being selectively positionable to occupy said interior space of said bag;

a first fastener coupled to an exterior surface of said bag;

a flap coupled to said peripheral edge of said bag, said flap being positioned opposite a coupled section of said peripheral edge of said bag, said flap being selectively extendable over said opening of said bag;

a second fastener coupled to said flap, said second fastener being engageable to said first fastener wherein said flap is secured in a closed position extending over said opening into said interior space of said bag;

a third fastener, said third fastener being coupled to said cover, said third fastener being selectively couplable to said first fastener wherein said cover is selectively couplable to said bag while said flap is in an open position;

a handle coupled to said cover, said handle being positioned along a top edge of said perimeter edge of said cover; and

a slot extending through said flap, said handle being insertable through said slot when said cover is positioned in said interior space of said bag.

2. The device of claim 1, further comprising said handle having opposite ends coupled to said perimeter edge of said cover.

3. The device of claim 1, further comprising said cover being constructed of a washable material.

4. The device of claim 1, further comprising said cover being rectangular.

5. The device of claim 1, further comprising said first fastener being elongated and positioned proximate and parallel to said peripheral edge of said peripheral wall of said bag.

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

7. The device of claim 5, further comprising said third fastener being coupled to said cover proximate a top edge of said cover wherein said first fastener and said third fastener are configured for positioning said bag and said cover on opposite sides of a back of a seat such that said cover is positionable to extend over a front side of the back of the seat.

8. A portable seat cover device comprising:

a cover having a front face, a back face, and a perimeter edge extending around and between said front face and said back face, said cover being constructed of a washable material, said cover being rectangular;

a bag, a peripheral wall of said bag having a peripheral edge defining an opening into an interior space of said bag, said cover being selectively positionable to occupy said interior space of said bag;

a first fastener coupled to an exterior surface of said bag, said first fastener being elongated and positioned proximate and parallel to said peripheral edge of said peripheral wall of said bag, said first fastener being a portion of hook and loop fastener;

a flap coupled to said peripheral edge of said bag, said flap being positioned opposite a coupled section of said peripheral edge of said bag, said flap being selectively extendable over said opening of said bag;

a second fastener coupled to said flap, said second fastener being engageable to said first fastener wherein said flap is secured in a closed position extending over said opening into said interior space of said bag; and

a third fastener, said third fastener being coupled to said cover, said third fastener being selectively couplable to said first fastener wherein said cover is selectively couplable to said bag while said flap is in an open position, said third fastener being coupled to said cover proximate a top edge of said cover wherein said first fastener and said third fastener are configured for positioning said bag and said cover on opposite sides of a back of a seat such that said cover is positionable to extend over a front side of the back of the seat;

a handle coupled to said cover, said handle being positioned along a top edge of said perimeter edge of said cover, said handle having opposite ends coupled to said perimeter edge of said cover; and

a slot extending through said flap, said handle being insertable through said slot when said cover is positioned in said interior space of said bag.
