Appl. No.:
7/993680
Inventors:

International Classification:

US Classification:

Abstract:
A retaining system holds sheet material smooth and flat upon a mattress against the movements of a bed occupant. Opposing edges of the sheet are provided with hems for removably receiving elongate rigid slats or battens. At the midpoint of each batten is an attaching means. An aperture in each hem provides access to the attaching means. A flaccid cord or tape assembly is passed beneath the mattress. The cord is provided at its ends with connectors for connection to the attaching means on the battens. The cord is pulled taut and held under tension. This pulls the battens down along the sides of the mattress and holds the sheet smooth and taut against the mattress.
