Abstract
A bed/shelter unit comprising a lightweight air mattress and a lightweight tent on the mattress adapted to be erected as a shelter over the mattress and to be collapsed on the mattress, the mattress, when deflated, and the tent, when collapsed on the mattress, being adapted to be compactly packed as by rolling them up into a lightweight bundle. The tent comprises a panel of lightweight flexible tent material adapted to arch over the inflated mattress from one side thereof to the other, the panel having inflatable arches at its ends adapted when inflated to extend over the mattress from one side to the other. End closures at the ends of the tent hold the arches in an erected position with the panel drawn between the arches and thereby arched over the mattress.
