Abstract: A portable and foldable maternity lounger is constructed with a three section folding frame and a frame cover of three portions. A head end portion and a foot end portion are formed in the configuration of pockets or envelopes of firm non-stretching material open on sides facing each other for sliding respectively over the ends of the frame. A mid portion substantially covers the mid section of the frame. The mid portion of the frame cover is formed by a lower panel of firm non-stretching material for supporting hips and an upper panel of elastic stretching material for expandable support of the abdomen. The upper and lower panels are joined by a continuous seam in the middle to form a continuous mid portion without uncomfortable exposure of the abdomen. The upper panel is formed with a border of firm substantially non-stretching material to distribute weight to the elastic stretching material.

Abstract: An article of furniture in the nature of a cot for supporting a sunbather is disclosed. The cot comprises a rectangular, rigid frame of parallel extending, spaced apart frame members defining a planar peripheral support for a sheet of translucent, open mesh netting material stretched across the frame in position for supporting the sunbather's body. Foldable, U-shaped legs of tubular construction support the frame in vertical spaced relationship above a supporting surface. A pair of rectangular, planar reflectors are swingably secured to the frame side members to angle downwardly and inwardly beneath the supporting netting to reflect the sun's rays upwardly against the lower side of the sunbather's body. The frame members and the reflectors are constructed for folding at the middle of the cot to permit the article to be folded to a compact condition for transportability.
