FOLDABLE TRAVEL BED ASSEMBLY FOR A VEHICLE
A foldable travel bed assembly for a vehicle provides a foldable platform that removably fits into a rear end of a vehicle to support a sleeper and create storage space. The platform has a forward section and a rearward section that hingedly connect at a horizontal fold line. The forward section folds back onto the rearward section to enable use of a middle seat in vehicle. A set of slidable support struts extends across the horizontal fold line between the forward section and rearward section. At least one handle controls the slidable support struts to be manually extended across the fold to lock the platform into operation. The platform also has a top side and a bottom side. The assembly also provides a set of height adjustable legs supporting the platform. The set of height adjustable legs hingedly collapse to lay parallel with the bottom side of the platform.
AUTOMATIC ADAPTIVE COMFORT FOR BUNK MATTRESS
The disclosure relates to a bunk, in particular for a vehicle cabin. The bunk comprises a base plate, an upper layer, a plurality of supporting members vertically compressible and spaced apart from one another substantially over the whole surface of the bunk, a plurality of pressure sensors which are part of the upper layer and in an adaptable area comprising at least one area of the bunk, a moving mechanism configured to move at least some of the supporting members in the adaptable area parallel to the base plate, and a control unit connected to the pressure sensors and the moving mechanism. The control unit is configured to cause the moving mechanism to move the supporting members in the adaptable area as a function of the current pressure data provided by the pressure sensors, to locally change the density of the supporting members to provide a locally variable bunk firmness.

Surface Leveling Apparatus
A method and apparatus to adjust the angle of a surface is disclosed. The apparatus includes a measuring device having hardware components capable of generating a measurement of the position of the measuring device relative to the earth's gravity and circuitry capable of communicating the measurement to a controller and at least one electro-mechanical device capable of displacing the surface connected to the controller. The surface may be a bed and the present invention is particularly useful when the surface is a bed in a camper van. When the camper van is parked on a hill, the present invention provides a convenient method for making the bed inside the camper van level, or at an angle preferred by the user, for comfortable sleeping.

SLEEPING EQUIPMENT
Sleeping equipment includes a mat body and a plurality of air bags. The mat body includes a middle support portion, an upper support portion, and a lower support portion. The mat body is configured to switch between a bed mode and a chair mode. The air bags are arranged in the mat body in a mat length direction from the upper support portion toward the lower support portion. At least a part of the air bags is divided into right and left bag portions in a mat width direction, and the right bag portion and the left bag portion are configured to be independently inflated and deflated.

Recreational mattress
A mattress has a cover sewn over a cushioned non-absorbent core and is suitable for use as a resting place or sleeping space. The core is made of a netted material having a plurality of tangled, partially bonded filaments. The cushions can have various densities separated by baffles inside the cover. The cover can have a built in or added back support system. The mattress is a self contained carry case and needs no additional carry bag. A detachable shoulder strap doubles to carry the mattress and as adjustable straps to adjust the back support system. The cushion is manufactured in various sizes for standard outdoor camping as well as sizes for standard indoor bedding.
Bed lift mounting member
A structure such as a recreational vehicle includes a guide member coupled to a wall of the structure, a carriage member slidingly coupled to the guide member, a mounting bracket coupled to the carriage member, and a bed coupled to the mounting bracket. The mounting bracket can be coupled to the carriage member in a readily releasable manner. The mounting bracket can also be slidably received by a bed support member that is coupled to or part of the bed.
