ABSTRACT:
A covered hammock includes an upper fabric cover, comprised of an upper nonwoven fabric connected to a lower woven fabric border-supported by means of a, collapsible pole that is secured to the outside of said cover and is shaped in the form of a rounded arch that is parallel to the lateral ends of a lower fabric support which is trapezoidal in shape and whose lateral ends are adapted with means for suspension above ground to stationary fixtures such as trees. The upper fabric cover and lower fabric support are connected, by means creating an enclosed space suitable for a reclining person, and accessible by selective fasteners strategically placed in said cover. A rain cover with window and zippered opening is attachable to an upper side of said lower support and may be opened and secured in place with fasteners over said cover in inclement weather. A sun visor includes an elongated oval whose outer edges have been provided with means for inserting stiffening members therein, said stiffening members exerting an upward and outward pressure on said visor when attached along its longitudinal median to said rounded arch; the curved sides of the sun visor thereby protruding outwardly from said median over the upper fabric cover and blocking some of the sun's rays.
