ABSTRACT:
Folding furniture for recreational vehicles (RVs). The furniture includes a seating portion, a back portion, two sets of foldover arms, and a pair of hinging brackets. The seating and back portions have a front edge, left and right side edges, and a rear edge, and have an upper surface and a lower surface. Each set of foldover arms includes two non-straight arm portions, each with a seating portion connecting end and a back portion connecting end. The seating portion connecting ends are pivotally connected to the side edges of the seating portion, and the back portion connecting ends are pivotally connected to the side edges of the back portion, to form a pivotally attached together seating and back portion. Thus connected, the back portion can be pivoted backwardly in a generally uprightslanted back manner adjacent to the rear edge of the seating portion to define a seating mode, and permit the back portion to be pivoted frontwardly in a generally horizontal manner such that the rear edge of the framework of the back portion is adjacent to the front edge of the seating portion to define a bed mode. The hinging brackets are hingeably attached to the seating portion and are affixed to a vertical inside wall of the RV. The hinging brackets allow the seating and back portions to swing up to a vertical storage mode adjacent to the vertical wall of the RV and to swing down to the bed mode.
