Compact collapsable floatation sleep surface pedestal and container therefor

Claim 2

A compact, storable pedestal for supporting a floatation sleep surface, said pedestal comprising: a plurality of generally rectangular members adapted to be stored in a manually transportable container, said members respectively including means located at preselected positions for locating rectangular member support legs; a plurality of removable, rectangular member support legs adapted to be stored in such container, said legs respectively including means for attaching said legs to said locating means; and means, adapted to be stored in such container, for interconnecting said rectangular members into a unitary pedestal arrangement of a size sufficient to support a floatation sleep surface when said legs are attached to said locating means, said interconnecting means including fasteners adapted to be coupled to said legs for joining adjacent ones of such legs.

Claim 3

The invention of claim 1, wherein said rectangular members respectively include a plurality of elongated members interconnected end-to-end to form a frame, and a planar member attached to said elongated members within such frame.

Claim 4

The invention of claim 1 including means, adapted to be stored in such container, for slidably supporting a drawer assembly in association with said interconnected rectangular members.

Claim 5

A compact, collapsable pedestal for supporting a floatation sleep surface and manually transportable means for storing such pedestal in its collapsable condition comprising: a container of substantially rectangular cross-section, said container including handle means attached thereto for manually transporting said container; a plurality of generally rectangular members of a size sufficient to be readily received within said container, said members respectively including means at preselected positions for locating rectangular member support legs; a plurality of removable, rectangular member support legs adapted to be stored in such container, said legs respectively including means for attaching said legs to said locating means; and connector means, of a size sufficient to be readily received within said container, for interconnecting said rectangular members into a unitary pedestal arrangement of a size sufficient to support a floatation sleep surface when said legs are attached to said locating means, said interconnecting means including fasteners adapted to be coupled to said legs for joining adjacent ones of such legs.

Claim 6

A compact, collapsable pedestal for supporting a floatation sleep surface and manually transportable means for storing such pedestal in its collapsable condition comprising: a container of substantially rectangular cross-section, said container including handle means attached thereto for manually transporting said container; a plurality of generally rectangular members of a size sufficient to be readily received within said container, said members respectively including means at preselected positions for locating rectangular member support legs; a plurality of removable, rectangular member support legs adapted to be stored in such container, said legs respectively including means for attaching said legs to said locating means; and connector means, of a size sufficient to be readily received within said container, for interconnecting said rectangular members into a unitary pedestal arrangement of a size sufficient to support a floatation sleep surface when said legs are attached to said locating means, said interconnecting means including fasteners adapted to be coupled to said legs for joining adjacent ones of such legs.

Claim 7

The invention of claim 4 including means, of a size sufficient to be readily received within said container, for slidably supporting a drawer assembly in association with said interconnected rectangular members.
