srEcIFIdA'rIoN reimmlgl part of Letters Patent No. 604,697, dated May 31, 1 ses.
'Application iiled August 27,1897. Serial No. 649,697. (No model.)
To all when@ it may concern:
Be itknowy that I, ALEXANDER MANDL, a
' citizen ofthe Empire of Austria-Hungary, re-
' sidingat New York`,in Vthe county and State of NewYork, haye invented/certain new and usefulInnpr'oy'fetnents in.Sofa-Beds, of which l the following is a specification. J
This inventionhas reference to'an improved sofa-bed which'vcanbe readily used either as K the structure being oli-comparatively cheap*y and simple construction and without the a Sofajor, with slight changes, as a single bed,
- bulky and disagreeable features of many sofabeds, all the parts required for use being com- `bined and stored away in the structure, so ythat the same is ready for immediate'nse whenever required. f. l
v The invention4 consists of a sofa-bed com-- .j `p'rising'amain frame having an upholstered seat-section and flattened portions at its ends,
side pieces with fiat bottoms and recessed at .'theinner cornersof-iheir rear ends, means for connecting said` side pieces' with the ends f of the' main frame, a back upholstered at its upper part and alongal portion of its sides and provided with a'rece'ssed lower part, and a folding mattress-section, the ends of which.
are insertedin the corner recesses of the side In the accompanying drawings, 'Figurel representsfa` perspective view of m'yimproved Fig. v2 is also,y a perspective View showing thesofasofa-bed'shown in position as ya sofa.

Fig,fl, and line 44, Fig. 2, respectively. Fig.
in dotted lines.v
Referring to the drawings, A represents the I frameof my improved sofa-bed, in the lower y.part 'of which is arranged a sliding drawer B,
in-which the pillows, sheets, blankets, &c.,are
ystored ready for use. The main frame ofthe l y sofa-bedis made of 'suiicient length and width so as to accommodate a single person. The
seat-section' Cv of the main frame i's 'uphol-l stered, with the exception of short portions at iofthe back.A
ssp,v
pieces for the purpose of retaining the folding mattressesection E in folded position on the v v back F of the sofa-bed; The back Fis uphol- 'f I -stered at its upper part and its sides f as far down as the side pieces D D, the remaining lower portion of thebacknot being upholstered'or covered, so as to permit the storing Ain the same of the 'folded mattress-section E, as shown in Figskl and 3.' Below `the raised sides of the back F the 'same'is formed with recesses f', which permit `tl1e recessed ends ofthe side pieces D to-'be inserted thereinv under saidrecessed sides f.'
The 'mattress-section E corresponds in width v`7s tothe seat-section of the-sofa proper and is covered at one sidewith the same fabric withv which the seat-section'is covered, while the y other side of the folding fmattress-section E 'is-- made of duck or similar fabric and tufted -1 in the' usual. manner. l l isconnected at its longitudinal center by The mattress-section stitching, sothata kind of hinge is formed Y that permits the folding up of the mattresssection E when it is to be stored yin the 1incovered orrecessedV portion lvof the back F. The length of the mattress-section` is equal When myimproved sofa-bed lis to be used .f as a sofa, theffolded mattress-section is placed Similarl letters of reference indicate 'corre-- to the length vof the .recess inthe Alower part l 5'5 isa detail, partlyin section andFig. 6 is a detail plan view of a 4side piece, partsy being in position by the recessed rear ends of the side pieces D, so that it cannot topple forward or change its position, as shown in Fig. 1.
When'the sofa-bed is to bepused as a bed,
one or both side pieces are removed, the fold- -ing mattress taken out of the -recess of the back, opened out, and placed onthe seat-sec tion. The drawer is then pulled forward, the sheets, blankets, dac., removed from the same v -the lower part of the back Fand firmly held and arranged on the mattress-section, after which the structure is in the shape of a bed ready to receive the person that is desirous of resting thereon. As the construction of the sofa-bed dill'ers but little from the ordinary sofa, all that is required being the additional folding mattress and the detachability of the side pieces, the sofa can be manufactured at little extra cost and forms a Very convenient piece of furniture for family use, especially as the change from sofa to bed, and vice versa, can be made with great facility, al1 the parts being within convenient reach and arranged quickly for either purpose.
Having thus described my invention, I
claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The combination with a main frame, having an upholstered seat-section and flattened portions at its ends, sido pieces having flat bottoms and provided with recesses at the inner corners of the rear ends, means for connecting said side pieces with the ends of the main frame, a back upholstered at its upper part and along a portion of its sides and provided with a recessed lower part, and a folding mattress-section, the ends of which are inserted in the corner recesses of the side pieces, whereby said lnattressscction is retainediu the recessed lower part of the back, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing,r as my invention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
I ALFX. MANDL.
