Vehicle electric reclining seats

Vehicle electrically actuated reclining seats for replacing stationary seats achieving seating comfort and to permit sleeping within a van comprising:

• a pair of side walls attached to a van interior, with each side wall having a horizontal slot therein,
• a bench frame having roller means interfacing with each slot such that the frame may move horizontally through the slots,
• a first electric motor drive attached to both the bench frame and the side walls for moving the bench frame forward and rearward within the van,
• at least one seat attached to said bench frame,
• at least one reclining back rest attached to the frame,
• at least one second electric motor drive connected to both a seat and a back rest such that when the back rest is substantially upright a back portion of the seat is lower than a front portion of the seat and when the back rest is pivoted flat by the second electric motor drive the seat is simultaneously raised to a horizontal position parallel to the back rest,
• at least one extendible foot rests connected to the frame adjacent to a seat, and
• at least one third electric motor drives jointly attached to the frame and extendible foot rest for extending the footrest for sitting comfort and when each back rest is reclined to a fully horizontal position and the seat is horizontal, forming a bed within a van permitting a person to sleep thereon.

Vehicle electrically actuated reclining seats for replacing stationary seats in a van interior comprising:

• a pair of side walls attached onto a van interior,
• a bench frame horizontally gliding upon each side wall, means for glideably attaching the bench frame to each side wall,
• at least one seat attached to said bench frame,
• at least one reclining back rest attached to the frame,
• means to rotate the seat and back rest such that when the back rest is substantially upright a back portion of the seat is lower than a front portion of the seat and when the back rest is flat the seat is simultaneously raised to a horizontal position parallel with the back rest,
• an extendible foot rest connected to the frame adjacent to the seat, and foot rest extending means, for elongating the footrest to form a bed.
