AI Technical Summary
Existing portable beds and benches suffer from discomfort due to mismatched repulsion forces when used as beds or benches, leading to pain in the buttocks or excessive sinking when used as a bed, and instability when used as a bench.
A seat member with elastic bands and a support member composed of multiple support leg portions, allowing the seat to be elastic or stable based on use, connected by a fastener for switching between bed and bench modes.
The solution provides comfortable use as both a bed and a bench by mitigating buttock pain and maintaining stability, respectively, through adjustable elasticity and tension.

Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a bench and a portable bed that can be used as both a bench and a portable bed. Background Technology
[0002] The simple bed described in Patent Document 1 has rod members provided at both ends extending along the longitudinal direction of the seat member, and support leg members arranged to be orthogonal to the two rod members are secured by gripping members, so that it can be used as a bench and a simple bed. Prior art literature
[0003] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Publication No. JP 2014-091046 The problem to be solved
[0004] According to the above-mentioned portable bed, it can be used as both a bed and a bench, but the repulsion force of the seat member suitable for use differs depending on whether it is used as a bed or a bench. A portable bed with a repulsion force suitable for use as a bed is not suitable for use as a bench because the seat member sinks too much when a user sits on it. On the other hand, a portable bed with a repulsion force suitable for use as a bench had a problem in which pain occurred in the buttocks depending on the use, because the greatest repulsion force from the seat member is applied to the user's buttocks when the user sleeps in a supine position.
[0005] The objective of the present invention is to provide a bench and a portable bed that can be switched so that the repulsive force when using the seat member can be used comfortably in both cases: when used as a bed and when used as a bench. means of solving the problem
[0006] The bench and portable bed described in claim 1 according to the present invention comprises a seat member having a space usable as a bed and an elastic band cover member, and has rod members provided at both ends extending along the longitudinal direction of the seat member, and has a support member that supports the seat member from below, wherein the support member is composed of a plurality of support leg portions, and has one or more rows of elastic bands arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of the seat member, wherein the elastic bands are composed of at least one elastic body, and the elastic band cover member and the seat member are each provided with a connecting portion for connecting each other. Effects of the invention
[0007] In the present invention, by opening the connecting portion so that the seat member has elasticity, the seat member can easily adhere to the user's body and be used comfortably. Furthermore, when the user sleeps in a supine position, the repulsive force applied to the user's buttocks from the seat member is mitigated, and it is expected that pain in the buttocks resulting from use can be reduced, making it suitable for use as a bed.
[0008] Meanwhile, when the connecting parts are connected to each other, the elastic band's stretching function is disabled, and the tension between the sheet member and the elastic band cover member is stably maintained, making it suitable for use as a bench. Brief explanation of the drawing
[0009] FIG. 1 is a drawing showing the state of using the present invention as a bed (Example 1). FIG. 2 is a drawing showing the state of using the present invention as a bench (Example 2). Specific details for implementing the invention
[0010] Example 1
[0011] FIG. 1 is a drawing showing the state of being used as a bed, and the sheet member (1) has elasticity as the elastic band (5) placed on the sheet member (1) operates.
[0012] In this embodiment, only one row is arranged at one end using a rubber member in the elastic band (5), but the number of rows or the arrangement position are not limited, such as at both ends or the center of the sheet member (1), as long as they are parallel to the longitudinal direction of the sheet member (1). In addition, one or more elastic members, such as rubber or springs, can be used in each row of the elastic band (5).
[0013] Example 2
[0014] FIG. 2 is a drawing showing the state of use as a bench, in which the seat member (1) and the elastic band cover member (6) are connected to each other by the connecting part (7), the elastic band (5) does not operate, and the tension between the seat member (1) and the elastic band cover member (6) is stably maintained.
[0015] In this embodiment, a fastener is used as the locking part (7), but any material such as a cotton fastener or a hook can be used. Explanation of the symbols

Claims
Claim 1 A bench and a makeshift bed comprising a seat member having a space usable as a bed and an elastic band cover member, wherein rod members are provided at both ends extending along the longitudinal direction of the seat member, a support member is provided to support the seat member from below, the support member is composed of a plurality of support leg portions, one row or a plurality of rows of elastic bands are arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of the seat member, the elastic bands are composed of at least one elastic body, and the elastic band cover member and the seat member are each provided with a connecting portion for connecting to each other.
