Abstract
An article of furniture which is convertible between a crib bed configuration and a twin bed configuration. Each configuration includes a headboard, a footboard, and a mattress frame assembly. In the crib bed configuration, the headboard and footboard are identical, each including a pair of outer vertical rail members and a central member. To convert each to the twin bed configuration, the outer vertical rail members are removed and the central member is rotated ninety degrees. The rotated members form the twin headboard and footboard. The rotated members may be re-configured to provide a higher headboard than footboard in the twin configuration. The mattress frame assembly is also re-configurable between the crib bed configuration and the twin bed configuration, by pivoting extension frame members between perpendicular and parallel positions relative to a central frame member.
