A convertible furniture system or futon includes a convertible frame assembly that is mountable in an interior space and is deployable between a bench configuration and a flat, bed configuration. The frame assembly includes a back frame and a bottom frame that are pivotably coupled together and coordinate to form either the bench configuration that provides a user an upright seat or the bed configuration that provides the user a flat, substantially horizontal bed to lie down on. A user can maneuver the system from the bench configuration into the bed configuration and vice versa. The system may include an actuator, such as a spring mechanism or motorized linear actuator. The system includes various support elements mounted to upright walls and the support elements may be selectively engaged to support the system in the bed or bench configurations and during deployment and stowage of the system.

A frame subassembly of a foldable bed frame includes a seat deck, a back deck, and armrests. The frame subassembly includes a portion of the seat deck connected to a portion of the back deck; and a fixed pivot point connecting the back deck to the armrests such that the fixed pivot point between the back deck and the armrests does not slide when the foldable bed frame transitions between a folded state and an unfolded state. The foldable bed frame may include a hanger connecting the armrest to the back deck such that the fixed pivot point therebetween is offset. The foldable bed frame may further include an assistance device configured to store elastic energy during a first transition, and release the stored elastic energy during a second transition.

Disclosed is a folding sofa bed, including a folding bed frame body, a cushion body, and a turning component. The cushion body is disposed above the folding bed frame body. The turning component is connected with the folding bed frame body and the cushion body. The turning component is capable of driving the cushion body above the folding bed frame body to turn to be below the folding bed frame body. In this application, when the folding sofa bed is unfolded, the cushion body may turn to be below the folding bed frame body through the turning component. This may not only save space, but also bring convenience to a user for operation

A furniture member may include a base frame, a seat bottom and an ottoman assembly. The seat bottom is attached to the base frame and defines a seating surface. The ottoman assembly may include a drive assembly that moves an ottoman platform relative to the seat bottom and the base frame among a retracted position, an extended position and a raised position. The ottoman platform includes a support surface that faces upward and away from a ground surface in the retracted, extended and raised positions. The ottoman platform is disposed beneath the seating surface in the retracted position and moves linearly in a horizontal direction from the retracted position to the extended position. The ottoman platform moves linearly in a vertically upward direction from the extended position to the raised position.

A sofa bed with a seat back assembly, seat, side frame assembly and lock and release member. The side frame assembly includes a side frame and a link assembly connected to the side frame. The link assembly moves between a first position and a second position to allow for conversion of the sofa bed between a sofa position and a bed position. The lock and release mechanism locks the link assembly in place.

A sofa bed is convertible to a bunk bed using a base frame assembly; an upper bunk assembly to be disposed on the base frame assembly in a seating position and to be disposed above the base frame assembly in a bunk bed position; a front link and a rear link pivotally attached to the base frame assembly and the upper bunk assembly, alternative embodiments adding a flange plate secured to the rear link with a motor, cable, drive, screw and drive assembly, or adding a torsion spring assembly, or substituting vertical scissors mechanism for the links or substituting telescoping supports for the link assemblies.
