Abstract
A folding bed includes a support frame with a bed having a frame. A linkage connects the bed frame to the support frame and enables folding of the bed frame between a substantially horizontal position and a substantially vertical position. A selectively foldable seat mounts to an underside of the bed frame and has a linkage and folding legs actuatable independently of the bed's folding linkage.
Claims24
A folding bed, comprising:
- a support frame;
- a bed assembly having a bed frame;
- a first linkage connecting the bed frame to the support frame and folding the bed frame between a substantially horizontal use position and a substantially vertical storage position, the bed assembly including a bed leg, wherein first linkage automatically moves the bed leg between a storage position and a use position as the bed assembly is moved between the storage position and the use position;
- a selectively foldable seat mounted to an underside of the bed frame, the seat including a seat leg and a second folding linkage automatically moving the seat leg between a storage position and a use position as the seat is moved between a storage position and a use position.
