ABSTRACT:
An add-on collapsible sleeping shelter which is mounted on a motor vehicle. The shelter consists of a hinged shell and a mating seal ring which is bolted to the vehicle roof. Integral to this shelter is a hinged bed-board which when raised angularly provides additional headroom and in the lower position provides ingress to and egress from a ready made bed with all bedding material intact. The underside of said bed-board provides a ceiling for the inside of motor vehicle. Flexible canvas-like wall material is attached to the shell and to the seal ring and unfolds to an enclosing position as the shell angularly moves upward to its extended position. Lifting devices, hinges, tension latches, and a molded trim ring are provided to conceal mounting hardware and exposed edge of vehicle roof.
