Pillow with cape

Abstract

A device adapted for use with a furniture seating apparatus having a pillow and a cape attached thereto is provided. The device enables the user of a furniture seating apparatus to maintain a pillow in its desired position against the back of a furniture seating apparatus without having to readjust or reposition it any time the user shifts his position or leaves the furniture seating apparatus. The cape, acting as a counterbalance to the pillow, is attached to the pillow in a manner which allows the cape to be fitted or draped over the top of the back of the furniture seating apparatus.

1 . A device adapted for use with a furniture seating apparatus having a back, the device comprising a pillow and a cape attached to the pillow, wherein the cape is adapted to be received over the back of the furniture seating apparatus. 
   
   
       2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the cape is adapted to be draped over the back of the furniture seating apparatus. 
   
   
       3 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the cape is adapted to be fitted over the back of the furniture seating apparatus. 
   
   
       4 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the cape is sewn to the pillow. 
   
   
       5 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the cape is detachable from the pillow. 
   
   
       7 . The device of claim  6 , wherein the cape is attached by hook and eye fabric to the pillow. 
   
   
       8 . The device of claim  6 , wherein each of the pillow and the cape has snaps, and wherein the cape is snapped to the pillow. 
   
   
       9 . The device of claim  6 , wherein the cape is zipped to the pillow. 
   
   
       10 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the cape includes a first surface adapted to frictionally engage the back of the furniture seating apparatus so as to maintain the position of the pillow relative to the back of the furniture seating apparatus. 
   
   
       11 . The device of  claim 10 , wherein the first surface includes a substance disposed thereon in an amount sufficient to provide an enhanced frictional resistance capability beyond that provided by the cape itself. 
   
   
       12 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the pillow is made from pillow stuffing wrapped with a material. 
   
   
       13 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the pillow is made from plastic and is inflatable. 
   
   
       14 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the cape provides frictional resistance at least against a top surface portion of the furniture seating apparatus.
