In this sense, various types of embodiments are already known: some refer to the convertibility between furniture of different kinds, such as the so-called sofa-bed; others have their prototype in the so-called trundle bed, in which an upper bed is superimposed on a lower bed (the nidoj of much smaller height; others are based on the formation of furniture stacking, although it should be noted that the latter cannot be used when they are

"7 y 8;; unos medios elás¬ ticos tampoco representados, tienden a mantener las car¬ telas giratorios 48 en la primera posición indicada. Como puede apreciarse en las figuras, cada espacio libre longitudinal 28 permite el paso de una alineación de patas 36, 38 de la mesa bajera 34; a*'medi¬ da que estas patas alineadas 36, 38 penetran en el espa¬ cio 28, se vencen las cartelas 48 a su segunda posi¬ ción, y el esfuerzo hasta entonces soportado por las mismas, pasa a ser soportado por el tablero 32 de la mesa bajera 34, la cual apoya de modo normal sobre di¬ chas patas 36, 38.In the embodiment shown, it is only the central section (formed by the margins 24 and front section 26; of the laminar arrangement 18 which rests on the crossbars 44 and indirectly on the stringers 46 and this support is transmitted to the central area 16 of the upper sheet by means of the folding supports 40. In this embodiment, therefore, the lateral sections 20 are cantilevered, which can present resistance problems. The invention provides for the existence of rotating, 48, around a "vertical 50" axis, which runs in each case between a margin 24 and the corresponding stringer 46. ' Each bracket 48 is capable of rotating between a first transverse position (shown in Fig. 1 and posters on the left of Figs. 7 and 8; and a position substantially oriented in said overlapping direction, that is, longitudinally (posters on the right of Figs. . " 7 and 8 ;; elastic means also not shown, tend to keep the rotating cartridges 48 in the first position indicated. As can be seen in the figures, each longitudinal clearance 28 allows the passage of an alignment of legs 36, 38 of the lower table 34; a * 'medi¬ gives these aligned legs 36, 38 penetrate the cio espa¬ 28, the gussets 48 are due to posi¬ tion second, and effort hitherto supported by the same, becomes supported by the board 32 of the lower table 34, which normally rests on said legs 36, 38.
Cada tramo lateral 20 de la disposición lami¬ nar 18 de fondo, por su superficie inferior, recibe la unión (por ejemplo mediante soldadura; de una placa in- clinada 52 (Figs. 2, 4 y 9). Estas placas 52 cubren losEach side section 20 of the bottom plate arrangement 18, on its lower surface, receives the joint (for example by welding; of an inclined plate 52 (Figs. 2, 4 and 9). These plates 52 cover the

Estas placas 52 transmiten a las cartelas 48 los esfuerzos verticales ascendentes y los esfuerzos horizontales.SUBSTITUTE SHEET I DA respective free edges 54 (Fig. 7; of the rotating tables 48 when they are in their first position. These plates 52 transmit to the posters 48 the ascending vertical forces and the horizontal forces.
La invención también prevé la existencia de unas cartelas fijas frontales 56 que arrancan del trave¬ sano frontal 58 y se aplican inferiormente al tramo frontal 26 de la disposición laminar 18, con lo que transmiten los esfuerzos ascendentes susceptibles de producirse al levantar la mesa cobertora por el tramo frontal.The invention also provides for the existence of fixed front brackets 56 that start from the front rail 58 and are applied inferiorly to the front section 26 of the laminar arrangement 18, thereby transmitting the ascending efforts likely to occur when the cover table is lifted by the front section.
En la parte posterior de la mesa cobertora, existen unas cartelas fijas traseras 60 que están soli- darizadas con el travesano transversal trasero 62 y que se aplican inferiormente al tramo trasero 22 de la dis¬ posición laminar 18; estas cartelas 60 constituyen una estructura fija de relación entre la lámina superior 4 y la estructura soportante (travesanos 44, largueros 46 y patas 64; .On the back of the cover table, there are fixed rear posters 60 which are solidified with the rear transverse cross-member 62 and which are applied inferiorly to the rear section 22 of the sheet arrangement 18; these signs 60 constitute a fixed structure of relation between the upper sheet 4 and the supporting structure (crossbars 44, stringers 46 and legs 64;.
Preferentemente, la mesa cobertora dispone de una tapa de cierre 66 (Figs. 2 y 6; que está fijada al borde delantero 10 con posibilidad de oscilación, de modo que cierre el espacio interno del elemento horizon- tal 2 de trabajo, cuando las mesas están separadas, y cede ante el tablero 32 al introducirse éste para la superposición de mesas. A su vez, el tablero 32 dispone de dos asideros 68 que facilitan su extracción.Preferably, the cover table has a closing lid 66 (Figs. 2 and 6; which is fixed to the leading edge 10 with the possibility of oscillation, so as to close the internal space of the horizontal work element 2, when the tables are separated, and yields to the board 32 when it is introduced for the superposition of tables, in turn, the board 32 has two handles 68 that facilitate its removal.
En la Fig. 10 se aprecia otra tapa de cierre 67, fijada al borde inferior, habiéndose previsto un alojamiento 71 para su ala superior 73 en posición aba¬ tida, la cual también contribuye a sostener, en su posi¬ ción alta, la lámina superior 4; un resorte no represen¬ tado, tiende a mantener la tapa 67 en su posición alta.
