ABSTRACT:
A truck camper having a large, flat truck bed and a top cover or shell is provided with a unit of furniture which is manually convertible between bed form and seat form. It consists of three essentially-rectangular elongated platforms hinged at adjacent side edges and extending crosswise of the unit. Each platform has legs at its opposite ends, providing for gear storage beneath the raised unit. The platforms are manually movable in Z-folded fashion between a vertically-stacked condition in which they form a seat and a horizontally-extended condition in which they form a sleeping bed raised above the truck floor. A cushion is provided for each platform, two serving as a seat and the third forming the back of the seat when in seat form. When in the latter form, 4 foot by 8 foot building construction panels can be placed the full length of the truck bed beneath the seat and between its legs.
