Abstract
Bedding for use a rectangular mattress which defines indicia thereon for alignment with the mattress to facilitate making the bed. The indicia includes a first transverse mattress foot alignment indicator and a mattress centering indicator. The foot alignment indicator is spaced inwardly from and extends parallel to the foot end of the bedding such that upon properly positioning the bedding on the mattress, the foot indicator is disposed over and extends parallel to the foot of the mattress and the centering indicator is disposed over a portion of the mattress so as to superimpose the central longitudinal axis of the bedding over the central longitudinal axis of the mattress.
Claims5
A bedding having a central longitudinal axis adapted for use on and alignment with foot and sides of a rectangular mattress having a central longitudinal axis to facilitate making of a bed, said bedding comprising a flat substantially rectangular sheet of material defining a foot end, a head end and a plurality of mattress alignment indicators disposed on said sheet adjacent said foot end thereof, said indicators including a first transverse mattress foot alignment indicator and a mattress centering indicator, said foot alignment indicator being spaced inwardly from and extending parallel to said foot end of said bedding such that upon said bedding being positioned on said mattress for securement thereto, said foot alignment indicator is disposed over and extends parallel to the foot of the mattress and said centering indicator is disposed over a portion of said mattress so as to superimpose the central longitudinal axis of said bedding over the central longitudinal axis of the mattress.
A bed sheet having a central longitudinal axis adapted for use on and alignment with foot and sides of a rectangular mattress having a central longitudinal axis to facilitate making of a bed, said sheet comprising a flat substantially rectangular sheet of material defining a foot end, a head end and a substantially "U-shaped" mattress alignment indicator disposed on said sheet adjacent the foot end thereof, said indicator including a first transverse foot alignment bar spaced inwardly from and extending parallel to said foot end of said sheet and a pair of parallel lateral side alignment bars extending perpendicularly to said first transverse foot alignment bar, said bars being positioned on said sheet such that upon disposing said sheet on the mattress to make the bed such that the central longitudinal axis of said sheet is superimposed on the central longitudinal axis of the mattress and the head end of said sheet is in a desired spacial relationship with the head end of the mattress, said first transverse foot alignment bar is parallel to and in alignment with the foot of the mattress and said lateral side alignment bars extend parallel to and are substantially aligned with the sides of the mattress.
A bed sheet having a central longitudinal axis adapted for use as a top sheet and a bottom sheet on a rectangular mattress having a central longitudinal axis and for alignment with head, foot and sides thereof to facilitate making of a bed, said sheet comprising a flat substantially rectangular flat sheet of material defining a foot end, a head end and a substantially U-shaped mattress alignment indicator disposed on said sheet adjacent the foot end thereof said indicator including a first transverse foot alignment bar spaced inwardly from and extending parallel to said foot end of said sheet and a pair of parallel lateral side alignment bars extending perpendicularly to said first transverse foot alignment bar, and a second transverse foot alignment bar disposed parallel to and spaced between said first transverse foot alignment bar and the foot of said mattress, said bars being positioned on said sheet such that upon disposing said sheet on the mattress for use as a to sheet in making the bed such that the central axis of said sheet is superimposed in the central axis of the mattress and the head end of the sheet is substantially aligned with the head of the mattress, said first transverse foot alignment bar is parallel to and in alignment with the foot of the mattress and said lateral side alignment bars are parallel to and substantially aligned with the sides of the mattress and upon disposing said sheet on the mattress for use as a bottom sheet such that the head of said sheet can be folded under the mattress, the second transverse foot alignment bar is disposed parallel to and in alignment with the foot of the mattress and said lateral side alignment bars are parallel to and substantially aligned with the sides of the mattress.
