Abstract

A seat bed for a recreational vehicle has a seat portion, an inner back portion, and an outer back portion supported by a linkage structure on a base structure. The linkage structure provides for movement of the seat bed from a seat position to a bed position where the seat, inner back, and outer back portions are supported in generally the same horizontal plane. The linkage structure includes front, rear, and outer back swing arms which articulate the seat, inner back, and outer back portions between the seat and bed positions. A hook-shaped support member reinforces the seat and inner back portions in the bed position. A V-shaped latch structure is adapted to latchingly secure the inner back portion in the bed position and to secure the outer back portion in the seat position. A telescopic rod transmits movement of the seat portion to the latch structure to automatically unlatch the inner back portion when the seat bed assembly is moved from the bed position to the seat position.
