Abstract

A cover assembly internally supported by a removable irregular object provides a seating apparatus. A top cover and a bottom cover are separated allowing access to the object within. A cushion assembly conforms to the irregular upper surface of the object forming a generally uniform top surface for the cover assembly. Foam structural supports in the corners of the cover assembly provide additional structural support and padding. A back support provides support for a person sitting on the cover assembly.

 a pad assembly adjacent the upper panel including an irregular bottom surface depending therefrom; 
   wherein the cushion assembly is disposed between the top cover corner supports and the upper panel; and   wherein the irregular bottom surface is adapted to compliment the object upper surface.   
     
     
         10 . The cover assembly of  claim 9 , wherein the corner pocket comprises:
 a corner cover extending laterally between adjacent sidewalls;   wherein the top cover assembly corner pockets include a lower cap at the lower point of the sidewall whereby the top cover corner pockets form an upwardly open pocket for receiving the lower support; and   wherein the bottom cover assembly corner pockets include an upper cap at the upper point of the sidewall whereby the bottom cover pockets form a downwardly open pocket for receiving the corner support.   
     
     
         11 . The cover assembly of  claim 10 , wherein:
 the pad assembly further comprises:
 an upper portion; 
 a lower portion; and 
 wherein the upper portion has a peripheral edge that extends beyond the edges of the lower portion. 
   
     
     
         12 . The cover assembly of  claim 11 , wherein:
 the pad assembly upper portion is formed to conform to the positive relief; and   the pad assembly lower portion is formed to conform to the negative relief.   
     
     
         13 . The cover assembly of  claim 12 , wherein the pad assembly cover portion comprises:
