Patent ID: 10952521

Abstract:
A backpack cover protects the backpack and its contents, and/or the user. The cover envelops substantially the entire backpack, allowing the backpack shoulder straps to extend from the cover for use on the user's back. Front latches/locks deter removal of the cover from the backpack, as the latches/locks are between the backpack and the user's back during carrying of the covered backpack on the shoulders. The latches/locks or their connections to the main body of the cover preferably extend through the backpack shoulder straps to further secure the cover to the backpack. A single latch/lock may be selectively unlatched, allowing the cover top portion to be moved from the backpack top end, for quick access to the backpack's main opening and its contents. The cover may have an internal pocket for holding important items, or to contain a bullet-proof/resistant pad or plate, for added security and safety.
