  • Patent number: 4105242
    Abstract: A cart convertible between a chair position and a bed position includes a horizontal seat frame pivotally coupled to a leg rest frame, a back frame, and four depending legs. The forwardmost pair of the depending legs and the back frame are coupled by an adjustment means for simultaneously raising the forward pair of legs and lowering the back frame toward a horizontal position thereby facilitating rolling the cart onto a raised platform having limited vertical clearance such as onto the loading gate of a station wagon. The rearward most pair of the depending legs can also be raised toward a horizontal position thereby facilitating positioning of the entire cart on the raised platform.
