Chair bed transformer for small. Big problems of small apartments

Convertible furniture for small apartment- the ability to organize a comfortable and convenient living space, despite the lack of space. Such furniture allows not only to unload the space, but also to make it more functional by combining several different zones in one area. The topic of transforming furniture has always been relevant - mass urban development did not indulge its owners with large apartments, therefore, various types of roll-out (folding) sofas as well as various options for book tables have become a common attribute of city apartments. But, thanks to technical evolution and design creativity, today there are designs that are able not only to radically change their shape, but also look very attractive and aesthetically pleasing.

Wardrobe-bed-transformer: an undoubted gain in space

Where and how to place the bed is the most problematic moment for owners of small two- and one-room apartments... The problem can be partially solved by a sofa bed - the most famous and widespread example of transforming furniture with a folding or sliding part. However, in recent years, transformers such as " wardrobe bed". When assembled, they are just a wardrobe, the facade of which is made taking into account the stylistic features of the room design. A special lifting mechanism allows you to quickly unfold a full bed.

A bed in a closet has a number of advantages over a sofa bed:

compactness - in terms of area, the drawer-wardrobe, where the bed is removed, takes up significantly less space (less than one square space) than a sofa, because the main useful area of the bed in the assembled state is located in height along the wall
such a bed does not have joints that are formed when the sofa is unfolded
the basis of the structure is a metal frame and lamellas (they enhance the orthopedic effect), on which the orthopedic mattress is laid - in combination, this ensures a healthy sleep without undue stress on the spine
no need for additional laundry drawer- it is fixed with special straps and retracted inside the closet, so that in the evening you don't even have to change the bed.

The built-in folding bed can be as single as well as full double... At the same time, double, rather bulky beds, are equipped with a vertical folding mechanism, but single beds are horizontal, which makes it possible to place various shelves or decorative elements above the niche. In the latter case, the unfolded bed will resemble a sofa firmly set against the wall. In addition, such a bed can be decorated under a closed shelf or chest of drawers. To make the rest as comfortable as possible, built-in spotlights are installed in the upper part of the cabinet, which will provide the sleeping place with lighting of the desired intensity. The wardrobe bed itself may include not only a compartment in which the bed is laid, but compartments for storing necessary things.

Until relatively recently, the inhabitants of small apartments could only dream of a spacious and comfortable double bed in the house. The modern furniture industry, taking into account the needs of potential buyers, has made the dream of millions of people come true by developing universal furniture for small apartments. The double transformer bed is a trend of our time!

Double bed transformer - a full-fledged bed in a small apartment

The transforming bed allows you to organize a functional living space without cluttering the usable area of the room. Assembled furniture occupies no more than 1 m2 of area. A double folding bed is appropriate in the interior of a living room that serves as a parallel bedroom, in a guest room, a children's and teenage bedroom, in studio apartments.

A sleeping bed with a transformation system in a small apartment has obvious advantages over traditional furniture for sleeping and relaxing, the main of which, of course, is the rational distribution of square meters.

In addition to saving space, a built-in sleeping place in the interior of a small apartment is a concern for your health. Resting on a full bed for two cannot be compared to sleeping on a sofa bed. A double folding sleeping bed will provide a comfortable healthy sleep, and, accordingly, an excellent mood while awake.

The furniture market offers a huge variety of models of built-in furniture, a large assortment allows you to choose a double transformer bed, which will ideally fit into the interior of your home, will become its "highlight".

How is a double folding bed

The double bed with a folding mechanism is a full-fledged double sleeping place, built into a niche and hidden by the front part. Hinges are used to connect the cabinet and the bed; during installation, the furniture module is attached to the wall by means of anchor bolts.

Installation of the wardrobe bed is carried out exclusively to the main wall.

The transformation of the cabinet into a full-fledged berth is carried out by means of a lifting mechanism. The design of the wardrobe bed provides for the presence of legs. In some models, the retractable legs are hidden in niches, in others they are made in the form of shelves or a curved steel pipe.

The front part of the wardrobe-bed can be made of various materials:

wood;
plastic;
laminated chipboard or MDF;
metal;
mirrors.

In the manufacture of chipboard boards, special adhesive mixtures are used. People prone to allergies should refuse to choose such furniture.

On the furniture market, there are models of built-in beds with two types of folding:

horizontal;
vertical.

In models with a horizontal type of folding, the lifting mechanism is located on the long side of the bed. Thus, when unfolding, the berth is along the wall.

In transformer beds with a vertical orientation, the mechanism presses the bed against the wall, when unfolding it is a double bed folding from the wall
goes down and is perpendicular to the wall.

In the design of double lifting beds, a vertical folding system is mainly used.

Types of folding mechanisms, their device and feature

The lifting mechanism is an important component of transforming furniture, the quality and type of which determines the operational characteristics of the piece of furniture. Two types of mechanisms are used in the designs of double transformer beds:

spring;
gas.

In spring models, coil springs play a key role. The principle of the mechanism is based on the stretching of the springs. The lifting mechanism consists of two main elements - a box and a spring block with an adjusting bolt, which are fastened together with a steel bracket. The service life of the spring block is designed for 20,000 working cycles.

In gas mechanisms, nitrogen gas acts as a working medium. The design includes a gas filled piston, metal axle and steel swivel plates. Swivel plates are located around the axis and are mounted on a bed or wardrobe. When lowering and raising the bed, the plates rotate axially, and the gas shock absorber provides an even load, reducing human efforts to a minimum.

Advantages of the spring block over the gas "brother":

aesthetic appearance - unlike gas models, in which a gas shock absorber and a steel swivel plate are visible in the unfolded position of the bed, the components of the spring mechanism are almost completely hidden;
adjustment possibilities - spring mechanisms have a wide range of force regulation. The power of the mechanism can be adjusted by tightening the springs with an adjusting screw or by removing one or more springs. In models with gas shock absorbers, this is not possible;
pricing policy - a double bed with a lifting mechanism on springs costs much less than an analogue on gas shock absorbers.

The key advantages of a gas lift are:

smooth running, provided the correct selection of the mechanism in terms of power (in order to choose the right device, you need to take into account the weight and dimensions of the sleeping bed);
ease of use;
service life up to 50 years.

Types of double beds transformers

In addition to 2-in-1 models, presented in the form of a wardrobe-bed scheme, there are many modifications of transforming furniture on the modern furniture market. Types of double beds of transformers presented by models in the 3 in 1 format are:

wardrobe bed with sofa;
wardrobe bed with a table;
secret bed.

Double wardrobe bed

Wardrobe-bed with a sofa, when folded at the bottom of the structure, a soft cozy sofa. Such a piece of furniture is ideal for decorating a living room, a soft sofa will serve as a place to relax, read and watch TV. While the bed is disassembled, the sofa serves as an additional support, increasing the load-bearing capacity of the sleeping bed. The sofa has a spacious storage compartment for bedding.

Double bed transformer with table

In transformers with a table, a berth by simple manipulations turns into a tabletop. The model with a table is appropriate in the interior of a children's and teenage room, as well as a study. The advantage of this design is the fact that when the berth is folded, the tabletop does not change its location in space, as do the objects located on the table.

Concealed double folding beds

Models with a secret bed. The sleeping place is hidden on the other side of the cabinet. The wardrobe is equipped with a swivel mechanism, when the module for storing things is turned around, a folding bed hidden in its depths appears. The mechanism is controlled remotely.

How to choose a double bed transformer - sleeper device

The main structural elements of the berth are:

frame - can be made of different types of materials (metal, wood, chipboard, MDF);
orthopedic base on lamellas - bent slats made of glued wood have the property of absorbing the load on the human body, support the sleeping spine in the anatomically correct position. The battens are attached to the frame by means of battens. Three types of holders are used in the designs of rack-and-pinion bases:
for wooden frames - targeting plate holders;
for metal frames - mortise and overhead.

The lattice base of a double bed can consist of two berths or bent slats located along the entire width of the frame.

The dimensions of the bed for a double wardrobe-bed coincide with the standard parameters of a traditional bed for two and are 140x200 cm and 160x200 cm.

In the model range of transforming beds, you can find specimens with a bed width of 170 cm. But it should be remembered that the larger the dimensions of the sleeping bed, the higher the load on the supporting structures. Before choosing this size, assess the permissible wall load.

The height of the mattress depends on the depth of the box. The standard thickness of the mattress for double folding beds is from 15 to 25 cm. To fix the mattress and bedding on a bed located in an upright position, special straps are provided with snap locks.

A double bed transformer for a small apartment will provide comfort during sleep and freedom of movement around the room in the daytime. The transformer furniture, thought out to the smallest detail, will not only save space, but also make the interior stylish, modern and extraordinary!

Convertible furniture for a small apartment is a good choice

A fold-out wardrobe bed and convertible sofa can make one interior act as a bedroom, living room, dining room and home office at once.

As the owner of a small-sized apartment, I always take a special interest in various types of folding furniture. I especially like multifunctional transformers, for example, beds that turn into wardrobes, sofas into desks and other similar things. It's nice that designers think about us (or do they think globally - about overpopulation?) And create such pieces of furniture that will help "with a flick of the hand" in one minute transform our 10 sq.m bedroom into a living room or study.

Today I want to show the most interesting examples of folding furniture. Most of the presented transforming beds you can buy in the TRANSMEB store, in Moscow. Let's see photos as ideas for inspiration. Perhaps some of them will be of interest to our men who collect furniture with their own hands.

Transformer: from bed to wardrobe

Let's start with the lifesaver of one-room apartments - a lifting bed. This type of furniture is well known in our country. The lifting mechanism allows you to press the bed against the wall, freeing up a free passage. There are many models of such devices, the models look most interesting when the bed (in the assembled state) visually merges with the situation, for example, as in this photo of a teenage boy's room it turns into a wardrobe.

Here is another example of a transforming bed, clearly cheaper. Suitable for a schoolchild's or student's room in a minimalist style.

By the way, there are quite interesting ideas among the folding single beds - for example, this one is rather cleverly camouflaged under a closed shelf or chest of drawers.

I really like transforming beds for small children's rooms. See what a beautiful and practical option for one child is in this photo.

And in this photo we see a bunk bed transformer, a wonderful invention for small apartments. There is a shelf for linen on top.

This room interior with a pull-up double bed for adults looks very stylish. It seems there is even too much free space, I wonder what caused the need to take just such a bed? This is most likely a studio apartment.

In foreign sources, there is an alternative version of the lifting bed. The bed does not retract to the wall, but on special guides, like in an elevator, rises above your head. For small, narrow rooms, the idea is just great! It remains to be hoped that this design is also reliable.

Transformer: bed-desk

An interesting idea for children's and teenage rooms is a bed combined with a workplace. However, some samples are also suitable for adults, for example, such as the one in the photo below:

There are several design options for such models, remember the yellow bed in the very first photo? Its mechanism moves the desktop upward rather than downward. And this is how she looks after transformation, enlivening the interior with rich pink.

Of course, there are rollaway beds of a similar design and double sizes.

Transformer: sofa bed

There are transformers that combine a bed and a sofa. It seems that there is nothing unusual here - most of the sofas can be folded out, providing a sleeping place. In general, I agree, although when the sofa is disassembled into a bunk bed, it is impressive.

The rest of the transformers, from those that I came across, are more banal and follow the same idea in design as the "bed-desk". And yet it seems to me that for our small rooms it is better not to invent, but to buy a normal folding sofa. It will definitely cost less than such an invention!

Useful transformers for small apartments

Tired of beds? Me too ... But I also wanted to tell you about other types of similar furniture. I'll try to be short. When I wrote on the topic, I gave several options for folding tables. There are many noteworthy ideas in this area, but for today I will limit myself to two examples.

I really liked this idea of a sliding table (I found it a long time ago, on the blog of an overseas young lady), but I never figured out how it works. Why a facade is used instead of a leg (everything seems to be in place) and how such a long table fit into a cabinet 60 cm deep remains a mystery to me. I would be grateful if someone would reveal this secret for me.

I would like to mention another great design invention for small living rooms. This is a combination in one design of a coffee table and a dining table. I myself have been looking at this for a long time, only the price, in my opinion, in our stores for them is too high. Although there are quite decent options in online stores, for example, at prices 2-3 times lower than in regular stores.
