Fleetwood Folding Trailers, Inc.

Charles R Reckner, Jr

A folding trailer having at least one expandable bed assembly includes a trailer body having sidewalls, end walls and a guide rail attached to each of the sidewalls. The sidewalls and end walls of the trailer body define an internal space. The folding trailer further includes a first mattress frame having extension rails slidably received in the guide rails attached to the sidewalls of the trailer body. The first mattress frame is movable between a retracted position in which the first mattress frame at least partially encloses the internal space defined by the trailer body and an open position in which the first mattress frame extends outward from an end wall of the trailer body leaving an external space between a leading edge of the first mattress frame and the end wall. The leading edge of the first mattress frame includes a support member extending into the external space. The folding trailer also includes a second mattress frame connected to the end wall of the trailer body and movable between a first position in which the second mattress frame is received within the internal space defined by the trailer body and a second position in which the second mattress frame is positioned in the external space defined between the leading edge of the first mattress frame and the end wall of the trailer body. The second mattress frame is positioned beneath the first mattress frame when the first mattress frame is in the retracted position.

Folding trailer with expandable bed assembly

A folding camping trailer having a folding step with an integrated storage compartment generally includes a trailer body defining a doorway opening, a platform having a first side and a second side and a storage compartment connected to the platform. At least one of the platform and storage compartment is pivotally secured to the trailer body such that when the platform is in a first position, the platform is received in the doorway opening, and when the platform is rotated to a second position, the second side of the platform defines a step positioned adjacent the trailer body. In the first position of the platform, the first side of the platform preferably lies substantially in a plane defined by an external surface of the trailer body and the storage compartment is accessible to users of the folding trailer. In the second position of the folding trailer the storage compartment is substantially inaccessible to users of the folding trailer.
