The rockable folding chair can be horizontally folded leftwards and rightwards and can rock forwards and backwards, thereby having reliable rocking performance and being convenient to carry.

A foldable chair has frames connected to one another by cross supports, bases connected to the frames by base supports and frame supports, with springs secured between the base supports and frame supports to allow for back and forth movement of the frames when a user is seated in the chair. The foldable chair includes a pliant membrane providing a seating surface for supporting the user.

Furniture configurable between a display configuration and a storage configuration that eases transport and storage and reduces the furniture footprint. The furniture includes an upper region that has seating and a backrest, and a lower region that is below the upper region and adapted to engage a support surface beneath the furniture when in the display configuration. In combination, the upper and lower regions define at least first and second sections of the furniture that are coupled by at least one hinge so that the first section comprises a first portion of the upper region and a first portion of the lower region and the second section comprises a second portion of the upper region and a second portion of the lower region, and the at least one hinge is configured so that the first and second sections pivot toward each other when the furniture is in the storage configuration.

A rockable folding chair comprises a chair frame, a reclining cushion, and two rocker assemblies, wherein the chair frame includes a left folding chair frame and a right folding chair frame which are symmetrically arranged and are connected through a middle foldable connection frame, and the two rocker assemblies are respectively symmetrically arranged on the rear sides of the left folding chair frame and the right folding chair frame; each rocker assembly includes an upper rocker, a torsional spring, a lower rocker, and a bottom tube, wherein the lower end of the upper rocker and the upper end of the lower rocker are respectively connected with two ends of the torsional spring, and the lower end of the lower rocker is rotationally connected with the rear end of the bottom tube which is arranged on the ground; the left folding chair frame and the right folding chair frame have bottoms respectively rotationally connected with the bottom tubes as well as rear upper ends respectively articulated to the upper rockers; pluggable back tubes are respectively arranged at rear top ends of the left folding chair frame and the right folding chair frame; and two sides of the upper part of the reclining cushion are respectively fixed to the two back tubes, and two sides of the lower part of the reclining cushion are respectively fixed to the left folding chair frame and the right folding chair frame. The rockable folding chair can be horizontally folded leftwards and rightwards and can rock forwards and backwards, thereby having reliable rocking performance and being convenient to carry.

A folding rocking chair includes two supporting portions. Each supporting portions includes a first support, a second support, a stand member, a first rocking member, a second rocking member, a first foot member and a second foot member. The stand member, the first rocking member and the second rocking member are all rotatably connected with the first support. The first foot member is rotatably connected with the first rocking member. The second foot member is rotatably connected with the second rocking member. The first foot member and the second foot member are rotatably connected with the second support. The second foot member is rotatably connected with the stand member and is slidable along the stand member. A seat member is rotatably connected with the stand member and the first foot member and is telescopically moveable.

An enclosure may be positioned underneath a chair seat to at least partially enclose the under-seat space and may open and close in conjunction with the expanding and collapsing of the chair. In one aspect, the under-seat enclosure is usable with side-to-side folding chairs (e.g., director-style folding chairs), with or without a footrest. Among other things, the under-seat enclosure may include accessory pockets and panels. In addition, the under-seat enclosure may optionally include dividers that sub-divide an interior compartment into multiple compartments.

A rotatable accessory includes a table top and a flipping mechanism. The flipping mechanism includes a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion. A compression spring is arranged between one side of the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion. The first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are each provided with a first blind hole facing the compression spring. Both ends of the compression spring respectively extend into the two first blind holes and abut on the bottom surface of the first blind hole. The other side of the first connecting portion and the other second connecting portion are connected by a guide hole and a guide column. The rotatable accessory can be mounted on a chair or a bed to allow users to place portable small objects such as mobile phones and cups on the rotatable accessory.
