Abstract:
Design improvements and production jig tools make robust slatted three platform Futon Bed that converts from Bed ( 2 ) to Chair ( 1 ) or couch. Drill jigs locate holes in each panel. Other jigs form the platform matrixes. Jigs cooperate and assure production with a DRILL GUIDE. The platforms are glued. Improved glue prevents side force from deforming platforms. Design and jigs support fabrication in developing nations. Bed ( 2 ) disassembles into four smaller transportable components ( 3,4,5,6 ) by the removal of pins. Upper_Foot ( 13 ), Upper_Side ( 12 ) and Bottom ( 14 ) form a storage compartment and reinforce Upper_Pedestal ( 5 ) structure. Latch ( 17 ) cooperates with Upper_Foot ( 13 ) to latch the Chair ( 1 ) configuration and prohibit the Chair ( 1 ) from decomposing. Additionally, Latch_Catch ( 36 ) in Upper_Foot ( 13 ) serves as a clearance slot for hinges in the Bed ( 2 ) configuration. Platforms are fully symmetrical. In the event of damage to a hinge location, platform hinge reversal restores the convertible bed.

         BACKGROUND OF INVENTION  
         [0002]    The relative movement of sections converts this bed to a chair, couch, or seat. (See: US CL 5/12.1) The bed has a storage compartment, may be knocked-down for storage or transportation, and width may reduce to a single bed.  
           [0003]    The present invention relates generally to multi-function furniture, and jig tools.  
           [0004]    Multi-function furniture became known years ago. Often these required special industrial systems that manufactured them. As greater numbers of persons occupied the cities, living space decreased. As available materials decreased, value of furniture increased. As employment often demands relocation, break-down furniture gained utility. Unfortunately, break-down furniture proved delicate, breakable, and required specialized parts for reconstruction. Lost, or damaged parts made such furniture impractical.  
           [0005]    Above cross referenced related applications present folding beds, but no production jigs.  
         BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION  
         [0006]    This convertible bed-chair is proven prior art. Engineered jigs and improvements make this design produceable, marketable, price-worthy, secure, plain, maintainable, repairable, and robust. In a boxed shipping configuration, 200 units load into a sea-container.  
           [0007]    This convertible bed design meets 21st Century needs of administrators, managers, and household utility. This convertible bed both converts to chair and breaks-down for storage or transport. Each platform holds two complete sets of hinge fixture holes. By reversal of the platform, damaged platforms return to service. If other parts break, they provide an example template for the production of a duplicate part. In this method, broken parts easily reproduce. Other materials are common industrial metric productions.  
           [0008]    Industrial production jigs and dies of the 20th Century still make the best business practice for mass production. Labor time for the production of one convertible bed is ten to twenty times as great as aggressive industrial production with computer controlled machines. Industrial production with highly skilled labor using computer controlled machine is five times as expensive as jig production. In addition, good industrial production jigs permit small production runs without great start-up cost. International transportation of industrial production jigs to another location seldom brings taxation. Production may follow material supply and labor availability.  
           [0009]    A futon type mattress serves two purposes with this convertible bed chair configuration. This convertible chair becomes a couch with the addition of a mattress draped over the back and folded double upon the seat. When a bed, the same mattress serves as bedding foundation.  
           [0010]    Here in after DRILL GUIDE shall refer to U.S. Pat. No. 3,874,810 (or equivalent) and “(DG10)” or “(DG12)” shall reference part 10 or 12 respectively in DRILL GUIDE.  
           [0011]    Jigs provide enlarged plate surfaces or leg locator holes for cooperation with DRILL GUIDE legs (DG 12 ) or base plate (DG 10 ).

         [0077]    [0077]FIG. 31 is a perspective view of the exploded Platform_Jig ( 27 ) system as assembled from bottom to top. In order of assembly:  
         [0078]    1. The Platform_Jig ( 27 ) is placed upon a level work area.  
         [0079]    2. Clamp_Bases ( 30 ) are inserted into Clamp_Jig ( 29 ) (see: FIG. 29) in Slat_Locator_Holes ( 43 ) (see: FIG. 29).  
         [0080]    3. A rail is placed into each set of Clamp_Bases ( 30 ). Each platform applies either a Upper_Rail ( 10 ) (see: FIG. 3), Center_Rail ( 16 ) (see: FIG. 4), or Lower_Rail ( 11 ) (see: FIG. 6).  
         [0081]    4. Adhesive material is applied onto the locations at the intersection of rails and Slats ( 15 ) (see: FIGS.  3 , 4 , 6 ).  
         [0082]    5. A Saddle ( 63 ) then Clamp_Fasteners ( 58 ) are placed upon each Clamp_Rod ( 24 ).  
         [0083]    6. Positioner_Jigs ( 23 ) are placed into the outer Slats ( 15 ) (see: FIGS.  3 , 4 , 6 ) and rail intersection. Each Positioner_Jig ( 23 ) is driven into the Slats ( 15 ) (see: FIGS.  3 , 4 , 6 ) and rails so as to provide rail and Slat ( 15 ) (see: FIGS.  3 , 4 , 6 ) positioning. The rail location is a function of the Slat ( 15 ) (see: FIGS.  3 , 4 , 6 ) configuration.  
         [0084]    7. The Clamp_Fasteners ( 58 ) are tightened so as to provide location control of the Racked_Platform ( 26 ) (see: FIG. 26).  
         [0085]    8. The Clamp_Fasteners ( 58 ) are tightened so as to provide significant pressure between rails and Slats ( 15 ) (see: FIGS. 3,4. 6 ).  
         [0086]    9. The Racked_Platform ( 26 ) (see: FIG. 26) is removed from the Platform_Jig ( 27 ).  
         [0087]    10. The four Positioner_Jigs ( 23 ) are removed from the Racked_Platform ( 26 ) (see: FIG. 26).  
         [0088]    11. The Racked_Platform ( 26 ) (see: FIG. 26) is set aside to provide work area for the next Racked_Platform ( 26 ) (see: FIG. 26).  
         [0089]    [0089]FIG. 32 is a perspective view of a Racked_Platform ( 26 ) upon the Platform_Jig ( 27 ). The Racked_Platform ( 26 ) separates from the Platform_Jig ( 27 ).  
         [0090]    [0090]FIG. 33 is a magnified perspective view of a Racked_Platform ( 26 ) and Platform_Jig ( 27 ). This Racked_Platform ( 26 ) holds Slats ( 15 ) and Center_Rails ( 16 ) that will become a Center_Platform ( 4 ) (see: FIG. 4) with the addition of Hinge_Plates ( 31 ) (see: FIG. 4). This configuration contains: Slats ( 15 ), Center_Rails ( 16 ), Clamp_Rod ( 24 ), Clamp_Base ( 30 ), Saddle ( 63 ), Clamp_Fastener ( 58 ), Positioner_Jig ( 23 ), Clamp_Jig ( 29 ), Slat_Locator_Rod ( 59 ), Platform_Fastener( 62 ), and Jig_Bar ( 64 ). The Positioner_Jig ( 23 ) is shorter than the height of the Center_Rail ( 16 ) plus Slat ( 15 ). The Positioner_Jig ( 23 ) removes after the Clamp_Fasteners ( 58 ) are tightened.  
         [0091]    [0091]FIG. 34 is a magnified perspective view of a corner of the Upper_Platform ( 3 ) showing the Slats ( 15 ), Upper_Rail ( 10 ), and Pin_Hole ( 34 ) that receives a Shackle_Pin ( 32 ) (see: FIG. 5).
