Patent ID: 11517119

Abstract:
A bumper designed to block a gap in between a couch and the floor, preventing household items, pets, and children from going into the space underneath couches, and, thus, eliminating messes, damage, injury, or loss. The bumper may be made of corrugated paper, heavy paperboard, or cardboard. The bumper may comprise a flat, rectangular body segmented into flat, rectangular sections using parallel folds, where the sections are configured to secure the bumper in between the couch and the floor. The bumper is setback from the couch frame perimeter to not be obtrusive, strong enough to resist inward pressure, and, in some embodiments, may contain cut lines and fold lines. A plurality of bumpers may, through a series of truncations, be customized to fully block access to the space underneath the couch for variety of couch lengths, widths, and heights.
