Bed sheet securement device

Abstract

A simple means to mechanically secure an existing flat bed sheet and a high friction material mat to a substantially full bed width rigid member to keep the flat bed sheet and any quilt, blanket, or comforter above the sheet securely in place to promote a more comfortable and healthy sleeping experience.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A device to secure an existing flat bed sheet in place on a bed comprising in combination: one or more easily installable and removable mechanical fasteners to secure one or more high friction material mat with one or more rigid structure that spans substantially across the full width of a bed. 
     
     
         2 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 1  wherein the rigid structure is a single uniform round plastic part. 
     
     
         3 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 2  wherein the mechanical fastener is a plastic semi-circular cross section part. 
     
     
         4 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 3  where the rigid structure is assembled from one or more parts. 
     
     
         5 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 2  wherein the mechanical fastener is an aluminum semi-circular cross section part. 
     
     
         6 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 5  where the rigid structure is assembled from one or more parts. 
     
     
         7 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 1  wherein the rigid structure is a uniform polygonal plastic part. 
     
     
         8 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 7  wherein the mechanical fastener is a plastic polygonal cross section part. 
     
     
         9 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 8  where the rigid structure is assembled from one or more parts. 
     
     
         10 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 1  wherein the rigid structure is a uniform polygonal aluminum part. 
     
     
         11 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 10  wherein the mechanical fastener is an aluminum polygonal cross section part. 
     
     
         12 . The flat bed sheet securing device in  claim 11  where the rigid structure is assembled from one or more parts.
