20140345053 | FITTED SHEET - A sheet that includes an upper portion, a lower portion, four side portions and at least one strap is disclosed. The four side portions correspond to a first pair of sides and a second pair of sides. The first pair of sides corresponds to a top side and a bottom side opposite of each other. The second pair of sides corresponds to a left side and a right side opposite of each other. The upper portion is opposite the lower portion. The lower portion has an opening. At least one strap is attached to a point in the lower portion and an opposite point in the lower portion and extends across the opening in lower portion. At least one strap has a single indicator. The indicator indicates the position and/or size of the sheet. | 11-27-2014 |
20140366270 | Elastic top sheet for a mattress - A top sheet having elastic around the foot end would be retained at the foot end beneath the mattress despite movement by the sleeper or sleepers, and would ensure that the sleeper's or sleepers' feet do not come uncovered. | 12-18-2014 |
20150020311 | Fitted Sheet - A fitted sheet that is particularly well suited for use on a small mattress such as a child's sleeping mattress has elastic on some, but less than all, of its bottom surface periphery. The portion without elastic is wider than the portion with elastic, and defines a pocket part. A first end of the mattress is inserted into the pocket part. The pocket part holds the mattress securely while the elasticized portion is stretched and slipped over the remainder of the mattress. The pocket part not only allows for easier insertion of the mattress into that part, but also serves as a visual index that allows the user to easily identify which part of the sheet goes on which part of the mattress. | 01-22-2015 |
20150074907 | Smart Fitted Sheets - A fitted sheet for mattresses that is a combination of any known manufacturing of fitted sheets with the addition of four flexible panels to the bottom corner hem instead of traditionally used elastic cords, straps or bands. The addition of the panels form a pocket around each mattress corner. The hem on the bottom of the fitted sheet corners that would typically secure an elastic band instead secure the flexible panels. A single, or multiple hem may be used as needed to best support the panel while attaching it to any variety of fitted sheets. Multiple stitching techniques may also be used. The flexible panels are introduced to create a more snug fit on the mattress and more evenly distribute the stress applied to the fabric than current versions that are available on the market. | 03-19-2015 |
