' UNITED STATE s PATENT OFFICE;
/ 7 RUSSELL R. KEESLING, OF SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA.
COLLAIPSIBLE BED.
Application filed October 23, 1924. Serial No; 745,477.
I It is one object of my invention to providea collapsible bed that can be readily mounted in the coupe type of closed motor cars without alteration of the car body, and readily adjustable for use without material alteration of the car parts.
It is another object of the invention to provide a collapsible frameworkconstructed to cooperate with a portion of the car to form a bed support.
It is also an object of the invention toprovide a structure of the character indicated that will be simple in form and construction, economical to n'lanufacture, and highly efiicientin its practical application.
In the drawing Figure 1 is a diagrammatical illustration of a portion of a coup body with my improved bed installed therein.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the collapsible framework supporting a portion of the bed.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, I show at 1 the outline of a coupe body with the framework 3 having two independent cushion sections 2-2 disposed side by side thereon to constitute a seat.
There are certain features in the construction of the type of coup for which this structure is designed that renders the construction hereinafter set forth highly practical.
For instance, the space l is such that the seat cushions 2 may be removed from frame 3 and placed in superposed relation in said space as shown in Figure 1, thereby forming a support for the head of a mattress as 5 on substantially the same level as the top of frame 3.
Furthermore, the space 6 is substantially the same in height as the back 7 of the seat, and a shelf-like portion 8 is provided to the rear of the seat back 7 so that when so desired the back 7 may be quickly slid up on to shelf 8 as shown. This is a simple operation to perform because the back 7 isnormally secured to frame 3 only by lugs as 9 screwed thereto, but in fitting the car with a bed these lugs may be permanently detached from frame 3 since the cushions 2 securely hold the back 7 in place.
Finally, when the seat back 7 is raised to shelf 8-as shown an opening 10 is left between body 1 and frame 3, providing an unobstructed space somewhat over six feet long extending from the front to the rear of the car body.
While the framework 3 and cushions 2 (when arranged as shown) will support the forward part of a mattress it is necessary to provide suitable means for supporting the foot portions thereof. 7
To accomplish this result I provide a three leaf collapsible bed frame as follows. An oblong frame 11 of suitable proportions is hinged as at 12 to the rear upper corner of framework 3 and is normally supported flush with the top thereof by legs as 13, the legs consisting simply of a pipe extending lengthwise through frame 11 and turned at right angles thereto at each end and freely pivoted therein.
The second'frame 1% is hinged to the upper'rear edge of frame 11 and similarly provided with legs 15.
Acthird frame is hinged to the lower rear edge of frame 14 and provided with legs 17.
To collapsethis bed frame, each pair of legs is turned up into parallel relation to the plane of the leaf in which they are mounted and then the leaves are folded back against the rear vertical surface of framework 3 as shown in dotted lines at 18.
When the back 7 and cushions 2 are arranged as shown and the collapsible bed frame extended'it is only necessary to lay a mattress over the bed frame, framework 3 and cushions 2 to form a comfortable bed.
When the bed is not desired it is only necessary to fold the mattress 5 back into the rear compartment 19 or to fold the collapsible bed frame as described and also fold the four-fold mattress 5 and store it against the folded bed-frame as shown in dotted lines at 20.
In the opening 10 I arrange a rod 21 crosswise of the car body and on pivots as the coverings used may be rolled up on rod 21 directly from the bed. Likewise in preparing the bed for use they may be unrolled directly upon the mattress in their proper order. This method of storing the bed clothes also keeps them perfectly clean when not in use.
It is to be understood, of course, that while I have herein shown and described one specific embodiment of my invention, changes in form, construction and method of application may be made within the scope of the appended claims. 7 V
I claim V 1. In combination with a motor car hav- 22. When it is desired to put thebed away ing t-Wopart removable seat cushionsand a removable back cushion and a space between the seat frame and the forward portion of the car body substantially tilled by said seat cushions when placed therein one upon'the other, of a foldable mattress supported at its forward portion by the seat frame and said seat cushions when placed in said space, and means for supporting the rear portion of said mattress said means comprising a collapc'ble frame pivotally mounted at the rear upper edge of the seat frame and proportioned to fold flat against the rear vertical side of said seat frame.
2. In combination with a motor car having two-part removable seat cushions and a removable back cushion and a space between the seat frame and the forward portion of the car body substantially filled by said seat cushions when placed therein one upon the other, of a foldable mattress sup ported at its forward portion by the seat frame and said seat cushions When placed in said space, and means for supporting the rear "portion of said mattress, said means comprising 'a collapsible frame mounted at the rear or the seat frame and proportioned to fold fiat against the rear vert1cals1de of said seat frame.
