Highwayman bed - how does it work

Hi all. Restoring the inside of Mousey to the original layout. (I’ll do a resto thread soon, honest…)

I’ve sorted the front bed as this uses the table as the main joining piece as per many vans, but struggling to work out how the back bed folds out from its bench across to the wardrobe/kitchen station.

Does anyone have any pictures/sketches to helping me build the mechanism please? Thanks in advance.
 
From what I can remember the bed was made up of two bases that stacked one on top of the other. The top one had a pair of legs attached and it pulled out to lock in place next to the bottom one, two long cushions were sized to form the back and seat (when it was in the bench position) then repositioned to completed the bed.
Hope this helps.
