  • Patent number: 5101524
    Abstract: A sofa that is convertible into a platform bed has a transversely extending stationary frame. A left arm assembly, a right arm assembly and a back assembly are attached to the stationary frame. The sofa seat and back cushions are removable from a support surface located above the stationary frame. A plurality of laterally spaced telescoping slide assemblies have their rear ends secured to the stationary frame. The telescoping slide assemblies each have an elongated rear telescoping member, at least one elongated intermediate telescoping member and an elongated front telescoping member and all of the telescoping members have a top wall surface that remains in substantially the same horizontal plane when they are in their retracted position and when they are in their extended position. The cushion support platform assembly may take one of several forms but they all stow in a position above the stationary frame and below the seat cushion.

  • Patent number: 4406476
    Abstract: Vehicle lifting and towing apparatus utilizes a pair of frames, each pivotably mounted to a vehicle, and having their distal ends interconnected by cable means. In one embodiment, rotation of one frame causes rotation of the other. In that embodiment, a winch remote from the frames is coupled to one of the frames, so that winching of the winch cable causes both frames to rotate about their respective axes. Means are provided in association with the other of the frames to secure that frame to a vehicle to be towed. In another embodiment, one frame is fixed in a generally vertical orientation, and a winch is mounted on that frame. The second frame is caused to rotate by operation of the winch.
