Abstract:
1. A bed for use with a recreational vehicle, with a head, a foot, and two opposing sides, the bed comprising: a base; a bed deck atop the base, where the bed deck has a top and a bottom and where the bed deck is attached to the base via one or more hinges such that the bed deck may be pivotally lifted from the base to access the bottom of the bed deck and a hollow area in the base under the bed deck for storage; a mattress deck atop the bed deck, where the mattress deck has a top and a bottom; and an actuator attached to the bottom of the bed deck and extending into the hollow area, where the actuator has a shaft attached to the mattress deck such that activating the actuator causes the mattress deck to slide relative to the bed deck from a non-extending position to an extended position and vice versa; a hole in the mattress deck; a slot in the bed deck, where the slot runs parallel to the sides of the bed and is aligned at one end with the hole in the mattress deck when the mattress deck is in the non-extended position and at the other end with the hole in the mattress deck when the mattress deck is in the extended position; and a bolt extending through the hole in the mattress deck and the slot in the bed deck and attached to the shaft of the actuator such that actuating the actuator causes the bolt to travel from one end of the slot to the other end of the slot, which causes the mattress deck to travel relative to the bed deck.
