Abstract:
A pop-up camper expansible through rotation is provided and it has a camper box having a pivot shaft and a trailer frame having a pivot shaft housing. The pivot shaft is disposed in the pivot shaft housing. The trailer frame is disposed above the trailer wheels to allow the camper box to pivot and rotate relative to the frame between transport and rotated positions. The rotated configuration allows opposed dinette and bed units to be substantially deployable outside of the camper box, revealing a generally square-shaped central living area. Room is created for a shower/toilet unit, a 7-foot wide galley, and doors wide enough to accommodate campers in wheelchairs. The dinette may be converted into a bunk bed and the squared-off living area creates a more livable, multi-purpose internal space. Timesaving options are provided for cranking out deployed units and raising a roof. Environmental friendly green materials are recommended.
