Abstract
The present invention relates to a split bedsheet covering. The covering is used by two users, while sleeping and features a central split along a central longitudinal axis of the bedsheet. The central split provides two symmetrical portions for two users to utilize independently while still sleeping with their feet covered as the length of the split is less than the total length of the bedsheet. The covering is substantially rectangular or square, and can be applied to a mattress. The split is created by detaching two split edges wherein each split edge has a magnetic strip and padding.
Claims14
A split bedsheet that provides independent sheets for two users, the split bedsheet comprising:
- an upper surface;
- a bottom surface;
- a top edge;
- a pair of opposing side edges;
- a bottom edge;
- a pair of padding elements;
- and
- a central split along a longitudinal axis, wherein the longitudinal axis is directed from the top edge towards the bottom edge to split the split bedsheet into two symmetrical portions, and further wherein the split bedsheet remains intact as one integral sheet until separated by a user for use;
- and
- wherein the two symmetrical portions comprise a right half portion and a left half portion;
- wherein the right half portion comprises a right split edge and the left hand portion comprises a left split edge;
- wherein the right split edge and the left split edge each comprise a magnetic strip chainstitched to the bottom surface between the upper and bottom surfaces;
- wherein each padding element is chainstitched to the bottom surface between the upper and bottom surfaces over the respective magnetic strip;
- wherein an interior seam of each of the right and left split edges is weighted;
- and
- wherein the split bedsheet is a bamboo split bedsheet.
A split bedsheet that that provides independent sheets for two users, the split bedsheet comprising:
- an upper surface;
- a bottom surface;
- a top edge;
- a pair of opposing side edges;
- a bottom edge;
- a central split along a longitudinal axis;
- wherein the longitudinal axis is directed from the top edge towards the bottom edge to split the split bedsheet into two symmetrical portions;
- wherein the two symmetrical portions comprise a right half portion and a left half portion;
- wherein the right half portion comprises a right split edge and the left half portion comprises a left split edge;
- wherein the right split edge and the left split edge each comprise a magnetic strip and a padding element;
- wherein the magnetic strip of the right split edge and the left split edge are fastened together allowing the right portion and the left portion to attach to each other;
- and
- wherein the split bedsheet remains intact as one integral sheet until separated via the magnetic strip by a user for use;
- and
- wherein each magnetic strip is overedge stitched to the bottom surface between the upper and bottom surfaces and each padding element is overedge stitched to the top surface between the upper and bottom surfaces over the respective magnetic strip;
- wherein an insulating material is removably pocketed between the upper and bottom surfaces;
- wherein an interior seam of each of the right and left split edges is weighted;
- and
- wherein the split bedsheet is a lyocell split bedsheet.
A method of temporarily splitting a planar sheet into two symmetrical portions, the method comprising steps of:
- providing an instruction for how split the planar sheet into the two symmetrical portions;
- providing the planar sheet having a longitudinal length from a top edge to a bottom edge, wherein the planar sheet has a central split defined by two split edges having magnetic strips lockstitched to a bottom surface of the planar sheet between an upper surface and the bottom surface of the planar sheet;
- pocketing an insulating material within the planar sheet;
- pulling the magnetic strips apart from each other to create the central split, wherein the central split is of a length at least three-fourths of the longitudinal length of the sheet;
- creating two separate half portions of the sheet by said central split, wherein each half portion is independent along the length of the split;
- allowing users to use the half portions independently;
- and
- attaching the split edges after use by fastening the magnetic strips together to form a single sheet.
