Convertible body support structure

A body support structure comprising:

• a base defining an upwardly facing first body support surface;
• a foldable cushion comprising first and second sections, each of the first and second sections being tapered from a first end to a second end and comprising first and second sides, wherein the second end of the first section is hingedly connected to the first end of the second section, wherein the first and second sections are moveable between a seating configuration, wherein the second sides are facing each other and the first sides are facing away from each other, and a sleeping configuration wherein the second sides are facing upwardly and define a second body support surface and the first sides are facing downwardly and are supported on the first body support surface, wherein the second body support surface is substantially horizontal when the first and second sections are in the sleeping configuration, wherein the first end of the first section is spaced above the first body support surface when the first and second sections are in the seating configuration, and wherein the first end of the first section is spaced above and vertically offset from the second end of the second section when the first and second sections are in the seating configuration such that the second side of the second section does not overlap with an entirety of the second side of the first portion when the first and second sections are in the seating configuration.

• and
• a spacer comprising first and second support surfaces, wherein the spacer is pivotally coupled to the base and is pivotal between an upright position, wherein the first support surface engages and supports the first end of the first section, and a down position, wherein the second support surface engages and supports the first side of the first section when the first and second sections are in the sleeping configuration, wherein the second support surface faces forwardly when the spacer is in the upright position and wherein the second surface faces upwardly when the spacer is in the down position.
