A convertible cooler comprises a cooler body, a lid having a top surface and a rear connector part, a bed extension having an adjoining edge and a sleeping surface, a bed extension connector pivotally connecting the adjoining edge to the rear connector part to rotate the bed extension between a stowed position, in which the bed extension rests flat upon the top surface of the lid, and an extended position, in which the sleeping surface of the bed extension is substantially coplanar with the top surface of the lid, and a leg assembly connected to the bed extension and adjustably supporting the bed extension above ground at a level that places the sleeping surface substantially coplanar with the top surface of the lid when in the extended position. The lid top surface and the sleeping surface of the bed extension are sized to permit a person to sleep thereon.

Disclosed is a bed platform and system for use in an enclosed or partly enclosed space, such as, a cargo space of a vehicle, such as, a van, camper, or truck, among others. By one approach, the bed platform consists of interleaved portions of panel portions that permit relative lateral motion of the panels. In some configurations, the panel portions are adjustable such that the bed platform can be fit into differently sized vehicle cargo spaces. In addition, the systems described herein also may permit the bed platform to be adjusted or moved to different heights even though the wall configurations may be different along the height thereof.

A suspension apparatus includes a woven net portion that attaches to a motor vehicle. The woven portion is suspended between opposed structural members on the vehicle by bars extending transversely across the opposed ends of the woven portion. Bars are received in a plurality of hooks that are secured to the structural members via an adjustable strap.

At least one embodiment of the inventive technology may be a disassemblable platform system in a pickup truck cab, or other vehicle, such as, but not limited to, a SUV or van that (after installation), comprises: a plurality of panels (generally, 40, as installed) relatively positioned to form a flat, raised rigid platform 41 in a pickup truck cab and that is elevated above lower seat cushions, where such panels include two rear panels 1,2 (i.e., in the rear seat area), a driver area panel 3, a passenger area panel 6, and a console area panel 42 between said driver area panel and said passenger area panel. The system further includes horizontal supports 43 that underlie at least some of said panels, such horizontal supports including at least two right-left horizontal support bars 44 (i.e., a horizontal support bar that is installed in a right-left direction defined by the vehicle); and panel-attached horizontal supports 45, each of which is attached to a panel to which it is dedicated.

An adjustable sofa-bed assembly for use within a vehicle such as a van or RV. The sofa-bed includes a seat portion, a back portion, and either a permanently fixed base or a removable leg portion which allows the legs to be installed into the vehicle prior to installing the seat and back portions to allow for additional elements to be installed beneath the sofa-bed, such as power elements for a powered sofa-bed assembly or for other equipment. The sofa-bed can be transformed from a sofa configuration with an upright back portion to a bed configuration with a laid-flat back portion. When in the bed configuration, the seat portion and back portion are aligned such that there is no gap between the two portions and the two portions lie completely flat, forming a complete bed assembly.
