    摘要: A system, mechanisms, and components for converting the interior of a vehicle into a sleeping space is disclosed. The vehicle may have front seats with modular back supports that can transform to reduce the seat height so that the back support can recline horizontally backwards and lay flat with the bottom support of the rear seat. The modular back support may have an upper section and a lower section, where the upper section may fold or retract inside the lower section. Additionally, the headrest of the front seat may also retract inside the modular back support to reduce the seat height. The mid-section of the vehicle where the center console and armrest are located may also transform to create a continuous flat surface inside the vehicle.

    摘要: A wall-proximity reclining seating unit includes: a frame having a back member and a pair of arms, the back member being fixed relative to and extending between the arms; a backrest; a seat; a footrest; a reclining mechanism connected between the frame, backrest, seat, and footrest comprising a series of pivotally interconnected links that move the seating unit between: (a) an upright position, in which the footrest is retracted below a forward portion of the seat and faces generally downwardly and defines an angle of between about 20 and 40 degrees with the underlying surface, (b) a TV position, in which the footrest is extended in front of the seat and is generally horizontally disposed, and the seat and backrest are moved forwardly relative to the frame between about 2.5 and 4 inches; and (c) a fully reclined position, in which the backrest is disposed at an angle shallower than the first backrest angle, the footrest remains extended in front of the seat, and the seat is moved forward of its position in the TV position between about 4 and 7 inches. A power actuator coupled to the reclining mechanism drives the backrest, seat and footrest between the upright, TV and fully reclined positions.

    摘要: A drive mechanism for an article of adjustable furniture, the drive mechanism having support sections, the support sections including a first support section and a second support section, an actuator mechanism, and at least one connecting mechanism, the at least one connecting mechanism includes a first arm pivotally connected to the first support section, and a second arm pivotally connected to the second support section, the first arm being pivotally connected to the second arm, in which the actuator mechanism is drivingly connected to the second support section to effect concertina-like movement between the first arm and the second arm to move the second support section relative to the first support section.
