Abstract:
Cupped arrangement for holding a fabric-type furniture cover in a use-configuration upon a furniture piece. The cupped arrangement includes an attachment portion defining a trap space. The trap space is configured to releasably engage a portion of a fabric-type furniture cover. An anchor portion is coupled to the attachment portion, the anchor portion having a cupped receiving space adapted to insertibly receive a foot portion of a leg of a furniture piece over which the fabric-type furniture cover is installable. The attachment portion and the anchor portion together establish a cupped receiver that is predominantly constructed from semi-rigid material, preferably plastic, that is form-retaining and that possesses sufficient flexure to accommodate releasable securement of the cupped receiver to a furniture cover. The cupped receiver is constructed of multi-parts that, based on relative positioning one to the others, establish an open configuration in which a portion of a furniture cover is insertible into the trap space and a closed configuration in which an inserted portion of a furniture cover is retained in the trap space. At least two of the multi-parts of the cupped receiver are configured to be conformance fitting one to the other, and also being capable of being snapped together, with the trap space established therebetween in the closed configuration.
