The invention is described above with reference to preferred embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will recognize that changes and modifications may be made to the described embodiments without departing from the nature and scope of the invention. Accordingly, any such changes and modifications to one or more of the embodiments herein chosen for purposes of illustration are intended to be included within the scope of the invention as assessed only by a fair interpretation of the ensuing claims.
In an alternative embodiment, the top and bottom of the uniform would be a part of or integrated into the material or fabric of the seat itself. The backrest or top of the seat would comprise the uniform top, such as the shirt or jersey worn by the team of the particular organization. The uniform top could wrap around the backrest (where the front and back of the backrest would resemble a uniform). Alternatively, all or a portion of the front of the backrest (where a person sits) would be the only part that resembled the top of the uniform. Similarly, the bottom portion of the seat would comprise the uniform bottom, such as the pants, shorts or uniform bottom that are worn by the team of the particular organization. The uniform bottom can either wrap around the seat bottom, or just be used or integrated into the material where a person would sit.
It can be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the seat could have a fixed shape or size, or could be inflated by air. The seat can comprise any seat used by adults, children and infants, including infant car seats. Moreover, the uniform top and uniform bottom do not necessarily have to attach to each other, but would attach to separate parts of the seat, where such separate parts of the seat are attached to each other. It is anticipated that the uniform top and bottom once fitted over its particular part of the seat, could be tightened around the seat by any means, including common stitching or sewing, drawstrings, Velcro straps, or any alternative attachment device.
In another alternative embodiment, the material, fabric or seat cover could be used in either the seat backrest or the seat bottom. For example, a uniform top could be placed over the seat backrest without the uniform bottom being placed strategically into position and vice versa. This would hold true for any seat or seat cover, especially in any configuration that a seat is abnormal, such as an infant car seat, for example. In an infant car seat, the seat bottom could be a hardened plastic to hold the child in position, but the seat backrest cushion could have a custom uniform top placed over it.
Particular embodiments of the present inventions have been shown and described, and it will be understood that it is not intended to limit the present inventions to the preferred embodiments. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present inventions. Thus, the present inventions are intended to cover alternatives, modifications and equivalents, which may be included within the spirit and scope of the present inventions as defined herein.
