Retractable floor cover
A retractable floor cover. The device includes an elongated cylindrical housing and a flexible panel connected to a rotatable spool disposed within an interior volume of the housing, which is operably connected to a spring-rewind mechanism. The panel extends outwardly through a slot disposed on the housing, wherein the panel is configured to move between an extended position and a retracted position. A control disposed on the housing is configured to activate the spring-rewind mechanism, wherein activation of the spring-rewind mechanism is configured to roll the panel along the spool and retract the panel though the slot and into the interior volume of the housing. The housing can be integral to an article of furniture or may be secured to an existing article of furniture via a first strap disposed on a first end of the housing and a second strap disposed on an opposing second end of the housing.
