Abstract: A foldable cot including a base attached to a first end and a second end and side-bars connected between the first and second ends above opposite sides of the base, with the first side-bar 0 positioned further from the base than the second side-bar, and the side-bars hinged such that they may fold toward one another, and the base hinged so that it may fold towards the first and second side-bars, such that folding of the base causes folding of the side-bars, with the cot moveable between a first configuration in which the base, first, and second side-bars are substantially un-folded, into a second configuration in which the base is folded in the direction of the first and second side-bars, the first and second side-bars are folded such that the first side-bar folds above the second side-bar, and the first and second ends are brought together with the folded base and the folded first and second side-bars between them.
