Definitions
- the present invention relates to a fold-away bunk bed.
- bunk beds include two beds arranged one above the other at a certain distance, advantageously aligned, utilizing space in a vertical direction and limiting horizontal space occupation, which is comparable to that of a single bed.
- bunk beds are constituted by a supporting structure, which is constituted by four vertical posts mutually joined by a series of horizontal longitudinal members, which form two supporting surfaces for the bedsprings and the mattresses.
- the structure On one side of the bed, the structure includes a ladder for access to the upper bed and a safety side rail.
- so-called fold-away bunk-beds are used in which the two bedsprings rotate about a long side and are closed inside a fixed framework.
- the structural supporting members including the ladder and the side rail, also are closed generally inside the fixed framework.
- the panels that support the beds are coupled to the fixed framework, which also acts as a support; the presence of this coupling conditions the thickness of the framework, which must not only contain the bed when it is folded away but must also allow mutual engagement.
- EP-0431851 , US-7051384 and FR-2732567 disclose fold-away bunk beds of the type described above, wherein two bedsprings are connected by an articulated framework which allows the two bedsprings to move, together, from a folded position to an horizontal position, and back.

Description
- The present invention relates to a fold-away bunk bed.
- As is known, traditional bunk beds include two beds arranged one above the other at a certain distance, advantageously aligned, utilizing space in a vertical direction and limiting horizontal space occupation, which is comparable to that of a single bed.
- These bunk beds are constituted by a supporting structure, which is constituted by four vertical posts mutually joined by a series of horizontal longitudinal members, which form two supporting surfaces for the bedsprings and the mattresses.
- On one side of the bed, the structure includes a ladder for access to the upper bed and a safety side rail.
- To reduce space occupation further, at least when the bed is not in use, so-called fold-away bunk-beds are used in which the two bedsprings rotate about a long side and are closed inside a fixed framework.
- The structural supporting members, including the ladder and the side rail, also are closed generally inside the fixed framework.
- The panels that support the beds are coupled to the fixed framework, which also acts as a support; the presence of this coupling conditions the thickness of the framework, which must not only contain the bed when it is folded away but must also allow mutual engagement.
