Tractor bed system

A tractor bed system for allowing one driver to sleep while another driver drives a tractor, said system comprising:

• a base being coupled to a floor of a sleeper cab;
• a frame being attached to said base and being positioned in a spaced relationship above said base, said frame comprising;
• a lower wait and a peripheral wall being attached to and extending upwardly from said lower wall to define a recessed area of said frame;
• a ledge wall being coupled to said peripheral wall distal said lower wall and extending outwardly from said peripheral wall, said ledge wall being coextensive with said peripheral wall;
• a flange being coupled to said ledge wall and extending upwardly from said ledge wall, said flange being coextensive with said ledge wall;
• a mattress being received by said frame, said mattress being configured to support a person in a prone position when the person is sleeping, a lower portion of said mattress having a shape configured to be inserted into said recessed area of said frame to inhibit sliding of said mattress with respect to said frame;
• at least one air bag being positioned between said frame and said base, said air bag absorbing shocks passing from said base to said frame to inhibit disturbing the person on said mattress when the tractor is traveling over a rough surface, said at least one air bag including a bottom wall, a top wall and a perimeter wall extending between said top wall and said bottom wall to define an interior space, said interior space being filled with a gaseous material, said at least one air bag being comprised of a resiliently flexible material to allow said at least one air bag to flex to absorb the shock passing through said base;
• and
• a plurality of shock absorbers being coupled between said base and said frame, each of said shock absorbers absorbing shocks passing from said base to said frame to inhibit disturbing the person on said mattress when the tractor is traveling over a rough surface, each of said shock absorbers being pivotally coupled to said frame and said base, each of said shock absorbers being pivotally coupled to said peripheral wall and positioned under said ledge wall of said frame, each of said shock absorbers being positioned adjacent one of a plurality of corners of said base.

• a base being coupled to a floor of a steeper cab;
• a frame being attached to said base and being positioned in a spaced relationship above said base;
• a mattress being received by said frame, said mattress being configured to support a person in a prone position when the person is sleeping;
• a plurality of shock absorbers being coupled between said base and said frame, each of said shock absorbers absorbing shocks passing from said base to said frame to inhibit disturbing the person on said mattress when the tractor is traveling over a rough surface;
• said frame including a lower wall and a peripheral wall being attached to and extending upwardly from said lower wall to define a recessed area of said frame;
• and
• said frame including a ledge wall being coupled to said peripheral wall distal said lower wall and extending outwardly from said peripheral wall, said ledge wall being coextensive with said peripheral wall.
