Bed cover with isolated chambers capable of being moved apart

Abstract

A bed cover (1) with isolated or quilted chambers (3) running parallel to one edge (2) of the bed cover and filled with a heat-insulating material, which is useable in both summer and winter based on different positioning thereof. For this, the neighboring separate chambers (3) are attached, especially sewn, to a flat cloth or similar flat part (4) so that when the flat cloth layer (4) is bent or curved in a sense of an arching of the chambers (3), neighboring boundaries or walls (5) of the chambers (3) are moved apart relative to one another, and in the case of a bend or curvature in an opposite direction the boundaries or walls (5) of the filled chambers (3) come into contact with one another to provide a better insulation. It is provided that in a spread, non-arched position of the bed cover (1), the neighboring boundaries or walls (5) of the chambers (3) have a smaller distance from one another over a first portion (5a) of an outward extent thereof from the cloth layer (4) than in a further portion (5b) of the outward extent, or are in contact for at least a first portion (5a) of the outward extent. This provides good insulation in the winter use position even in the case of a slight arching.
