ABSTRACT:
A protective cover for a vehicle has a portion of sheet material and a number of inflatable bags. The cover is fixed to the vehicle by suitable means, for example hooks or elastic ties and the bags are inflated to space the sheet material a distance from the body of the vehicle. The position of the inflatable bags may be adjusted to allow the cover to be used with various vehicle body shapes. Means may be provided for simultaneous inflation or deflation of the inflatable bags. By spacing the sheet material from the body of the vehicle the cover affords a degree of protection to the vehicle from falling projectiles and other such hazards.
