Inventor: ZHOU LIPING
IPC: A47G9/02
Filed: 2015-01-27
Abstract: An article of manufacture for covering a user while the user is resting includes a first layer and a rotatable second layer. The second layer is attached to the first layer along a line running across the first layer. The second layer is rotatable around an axis of rotation formed by the line such that the second layer covers a particular portion of the first layer only when rotated toward the particular portion. In operation, a parent or other caregiver covers a resting user with the first layer and rotates the second layer away from a particular portion of the first layer. Then, at a later time, the parent or caregiver rotates the second layer toward the particular portion of the first layer. In this way, the parent or caregiver can easily cover a portion of the user while the user is resting without needing to re-position the first layer.
