Multipurpose attachable protective blanket

摘要

A multipurpose blanket system includes blanket material and a first pair of fasteners configured to fasten to one another. The blanket may be constructed using sun protective, breathable material. A first fastener of the first pair is positioned along a first direction relative to a second fastener of the first pair. A second pair of fasteners may be configured to fasten to one another. A third fastener of the second pair is positioned along a second direction relative to a fourth fastener of the second pair. The first direction may form an acute angle with respect to the second direction. A third pair of fasteners may be configured to fasten to one another. A fifth fastener of the third pair is positioned along a third direction relative to a sixth fastener of the third pair, and the third direction may be substantially perpendicular to the first direction.

主权项

1. An apparatus comprising:
a generally rectangular blanket comprising Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) sun protective fabric, the blanket having four rounded corners, a head end, a foot end, and two opposing sides located between the head and foot ends, wherein the head and foot ends each have a length lesser than the length of either of the opposing sides; a plurality of fasteners releasably securable to each another, spaced apart from each other, and located along a perimeter of the blanket material such that the head end, the foot end, and each of the opposing sides each have at least one fastener of the plurality of fasteners, wherein the plurality of fasteners comprises:
a first pair of fasteners configured to fasten to one another, wherein a first fastener of the first pair is positioned proximate to a first edge of the blanket material, and a second fastener of the first pair is positioned proximate to a second edge of the blanket material, wherein the first edge is substantially parallel to the second edge;a second pair of fasteners configured to fasten to one another, wherein a third fastener of the second pair is positioned proximate to the first edge of the blanket material, and a fourth fastener of the second pair is positioned proximate to a third edge of the blanket material, and wherein the first edge is substantially perpendicular to the third edge, anda third pair of fasteners configured to fasten to one another, wherein a fifth fastener of the third pair is positioned proximate to the third edge of the blanket material, and a sixth fastener of the third pair is positioned proximate to a fourth edge of the blanket material, and wherein the third edge is substantially parallel to the fourth edge; at least one grommet located proximate each of the four corners; and a strip of binding material having a durability greater than that of the sun protective fabric, the binding material being located along the entire perimeter of the blanket and having a width approximating a width of one of the fasteners or grommets, each of the fasteners and grommets being directly secured to the binding material, wherein the blanket is devoid of fasteners and grommets except along its perimeter.
