A canopy, for use with a bed, comprising a horizontal platform having an opening, a plurality of posts that support the horizontal platform in a location above the bed, and a supporting apparatus located within the opening of the platform and attached to the platform. The supporting apparatus has the capability of supporting a conventional television set, which has a front screen area, at an acute viewing angle so that the front screen area is visually assessable to a viewer who is reclining or sitting on the bed. When a conventional television is mounted in the supporting apparatus, a portion of the television will be recessed up within the horizontal platform, but still be visually assessable to the viewer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention is directed to an improved canopy for a bed where the canopy comprises a horizontal platform having an opening; a plurality of posts that support the horizontal platform in a location above the bed; and a supporting apparatus located within the opening of the platform and attached to the platform.
The supporting apparatus has the capability of supporting a conventional television set, which has a front screen area, at an acute viewing angle so that the front screen area is visually assessable to a viewer who is reclining or sitting on the bed.
When a conventional television is mounted in the supporting apparatus, a portion of the television will be recessed up within the horizontal platform, but still be visually assessable to the viewer.
Accordingly, one aspect of the present invention is to provide an aesthetically pleasing and functional bed canopy that accommodates a television that can be viewed from the bed.
Another aspect of the present invention is to provide a permanent piece of furniture that combines comfort, function, convenience and appearance.
Still another aspect of the present invention is to provide a pre-wired TV canopy bed that will allow the user to quickly and easily install, operate and view a television set.
These and other aspects of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art after a reading of the following description of the preferred embodiments when considered with the drawings.
