Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a weighted blanket system having weighted corners to prevent shifting in windy conditions.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

The blankets consumers use on beaches or during picnics have a tendency to move from their desired location, get wrinkled, puffed or even blown away, especially during breezy, windy or gusty conditions. Shifting or puffing occurs even while individuals are occupying the blanket. This results in inconvenience and even loss of the blankets. Moreover, personal belongings placed on the blankets may also be lost.
Beach blankets are known in the prior art. For example, blankets or towels having open pockets that can be filled with sand are described by U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,226,737; 4,654,906; 5,018,229; 5,072,467; 5,499,411; 5,443,880 and 6,721,973. Beach blankets that are held in place by anchors that drill into the sand and hold the blanket in place are described by U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,294,083; 5,524,309; 5,713,383; 6,226,813; 6,631,527; 6,895,613. Both of these kinds of solutions are inconvenient to use because they require substantial time to set up the blanket.

SUMMARY

A weighted blanket system that is convenient to carry and use, and requires very little time to set up, is disclosed. The weighted blanket system can include a sheet, at least one beanbag, at least one pillow, at least one pocket. Some or all of the at least one beanbag, the at least one pillow, and the at least one pocket can be removable fastened to the sheet. The pockets allow storage of personal items (such as keys, cell phone and wallet) or objects useful at the beach (such as suntan lotion, magazines, and books). In some embodiments, the sheet includes at least one hole for receiving a pole, an umbrella, a designer hanger for clothes, bags, or other objects.
