Abstract
A retractable cover system may include a cover adapted to cover an object, a holder, and a retraction cord arranged to pull the cover into the holder when the cover is not in use, wherein the cover, the holder and the retraction cord are arranged to cause the cover to collapse as it is pulled into the holder. The cover may include a retraction channel, and the holder may include a storage sleeve. The retraction channel may be arranged to collapse the cover in response to pulling the retraction cord by gathering the cover as the cover is pulled into the storage sleeve by the retraction cord.
