1 . A front conversion loader for a futon bed, comprising: 
 a body, secured to a first futon frame member, including at least two recesses for accepting at least two protrusions of a second futon frame member, wherein the at least two protrusions move into and out of the at least two recesses to move the first and second futon frame members into at least two positions.    
   
   
       2 . The front conversion loader of  claim 1 , wherein the body is made of rubber.  
   
   
       3 . The front conversion loader of  claim 1 , wherein the first futon frame member is a back-deck.  
   
   
       4 . The front conversion loader of  claim 1 , wherein the second futon frame member is a seat-deck.  
   
   
       5 . The front conversion loader of  claim 1 , wherein each of the at least two protrusions may act as one of lock, lever, and pivot points, depending on positions of the first and second futon frame members.  
   
   
       6 . The front conversion loader of  claim 1 , wherein a leveraging distance between the first and second futon frame members differs depending on an interaction between the at least two protrusions and the at least two recesses.  
   
   
       7 . A front conversion loader for a futon bed, comprising: 
 at least two protrusions, secured to a first futon frame member, for entering at least two recesses of a second futon frame member, wherein the at least two protrusions move into and out of the at least two recesses to move the first and second futon frame members into at least two positions.    
   
   
       8 . The front conversion loader of  claim 7 , wherein the at least two protrusions include rollers.  
   
   
       9 . The front conversion loader of  claim 7 , wherein the first futon frame member is a seat-deck.  
   
   
       10 . The front conversion loader of  claim 7 , wherein the second futon frame member is a back-deck.  
   
   
       11 . The front conversion loader of  claim 7 , wherein each of the at least two protrusions may act as one of lock, lever, and pivot points, depending on positions of the first and second futon frame members.
