View Patent ↗An automobile bench seat cover having a bottom portion and a back portion is disclosed herein. The bottom portion is configured to cover three seat bottoms of a bench seat when removably coupled to the automobile bench seat. The back portion is coupled to the bottom portion and configured to cover three seatbacks of the bench seat when removably coupled to the bench seat. The bench seat cover also includes two slits extending from a top portion of the back portion toward the bottom portion. Each slit is adaptable between an open position that allows a seatbelt to fit through the slit and a closed position that closes the slit. One or more couplings, such as Velcro, are positioned adjacent each of the two slits and configured to close the respective slit.
1. An automobile bench seat cover, comprising:
a bottom portion comprising a first bottom portion configured to position over a first seat bottom, a second bottom portion configured to position over a second seat bottom, and a third bottom portion configured to position over a third seat bottom; and
a back portion coupled to the bottom portion and comprising:

a second back portion adjacent the first back portion and configured to position over a second seatback;
a third back portion adjacent the second back portion and configured to position over a third seatback;
a first slit extending from a top of the back portion toward the bottom portion and operable between an open position that allows a seatbelt to extend therethrough and a closed position closes the first slit, the first slit dividing the first back portion from the second back portion;
one or more first couplings positioned adjacent the first slit and configured to removably couple the first back portion to the second back portion when the first slit is in the closed position;
a second slit extending from the top of the back portion toward the bottom portion and operable between an open position that allows a seatbelt to extend therethrough and a closed position that closes the second slit, the second slit dividing the second back portion from the third back portion, wherein at least one of the first and second slits is positioned to align with a seatbelt of an automobile bench seat; and
one or more second couplings positioned adjacent the second slit and configured to removably couple the second back portion to the third back portion when the second slit is in the closed position.
2. The automobile bench seat cover of claim 1 , wherein the one or more first couplings and the one or more second couplings each comprise hook and loop fastening material.
3. The automobile bench seat cover of claim 2 , further comprising:
