A combination fender-seat cover for a dual-wheeled vehicle composed principally of a mount device, one or more cantilevered arms, and a convertible fender-seat cover device. Upon its attachment to a vehicle, the combination fender-seat cover is designed so that it has two primary operating positions: seat cover position and fender position. The invention's purpose is to protect the vehicle's driver and seat from inclement weather conditions. The method of position change from a first seat cover position to a second fender position or vice-versa is accomplished by a pivot or rotation, but can also be achieved by removal then reattachment, flexion, or translation. The combination fender-seat cover can have fixed or variable final and intermediate position options while converting from a first fender position to a second seat covering position. These position options can be achieved through various means such as pinning, snapping, bolting, and clamping into place. |

The sheets have mating outer peripheries affixed together in an air-tight manner at a peripheral seam to form a single inflatable pocket therebetween. The single inflatable pocket may be sub-divided into a plurality of interconnected inflatable pockets by affixing together the upper and lower sheets in airtight manner at one or more partial length seams disposed inside the peripheral seam with gaps therealong to keep the inflatable air pockets interconnected. A resilient nipple with stopper is affixed to the bladder to permit inflation and retention of air within the bladder. A quick deflation device has a tubular base affixed to the bladder and a removable screw cap to allow quick removal of air from the bladder. A draw cord extends through an elongate peripheral channel of the bladder with a cord outlet opening through which respective ends of the draw cord extend to removably retain the cover in a deployed, inflated position about the motor vehicle.

A wheeled vehicle enclosure system includes a body constructed to enclose a wheeled vehicle. The body is made from a material that is synthetic, durable, flexible, and weather-resistant. Wheeled-vehicle-receiving structure is constructed to allow the body to be fitted around the wheeled vehicle, and a closer is coupled to the body adjacent the wheeled-vehicle-receiving structure and constructed to close the bicycle-receiving structure. The closer may be formed as a zipper-closer subsystem. Enclosure-tightening structure produces a preselectively tighter fit of the system around the wheeled vehicle. The wheeled-vehicle enclosure system may be used for bicycles or other wheeled vehicles. |
