Adjustable protective cover for an air conditioner

An adjustable protective cover for use with an air conditioning unit having a top and sides, said cover comprising:

• a framework adapted to surround said top and sides of said air conditioning unit, said
• framework comprising:
• a plurality of spaced apart vertical supports, each vertical support having upper and lower ends;
• a plurality of upper struts extending between respective upper ends of said vertical supports so as to form a generally square configuration;
• a plurality of lower struts extending between respective lower ends of said vertical supports so as to form a generally square configuration;
• a screen coupled to said framework in a manner whereby to shield said top and sides of said air conditioning unit from direct rays of sun and from debris, said screen being adapted to move slidably along said framework so as to selectively provide access to said sides of said air conditioning unit;
• and
• wherein said screen includes a top portion and a plurality of side portions, said top portion spanning between said plurality of upper struts and said side portions depending from respective upper struts whereby a lower edge of each said side portion is adapted to be selectively movable between a respective lower strut and a respective upper strut.

An adjustable protective cover for use with an air conditioning unit having a top and sides, said cover comprising:

• a framework adapted to enclose said air conditioning unit,
• said framework comprising:
• a plurality of spaced apart vertical supports, each vertical support having upper and lower ends;
• a plurality of upper struts extending between respective upper ends of said vertical supports so as to form a generally square configuration;
• a plurality of lower struts extending between respective lower ends of said vertical supports so as to form a generally square configuration;
• a screen having a top portion and a plurality of side portions, said top portion spanning between said plurality of upper struts and each said side portion spanning between adjacent vertical supports and respective upper and lower struts;
• wherein each vertical support includes an L-shaped configuration having a pair of faces normal to each other, each face defining a slot extending longitudinally between said upper and lower ends of each said vertical support;
• and
• at least one fastener adapted to slide along a respective slot, said at least one fastener coupled to a corresponding side portion of said screen for moving said corresponding side portion between an open and closed configuration relative to respective upper and lower struts upon a movement of a respective fastener along a respective slot.
