Folding Chair

Abstract

A folding chair comprises two front tubular legs, two rear tubular legs and a seat cushion board, with the front tubular legs intersecting the rear tubular legs. Two washers are arranged at an intersection of the front and rear tubular legs, such that each washer is located between a front tubular leg and a rear tubular leg. A pin passes through the front tubular leg, the washer and the rear tubular leg successively. The washer includes a curved base and a bowl-shaped support which is located in a central area of the curved base, and a through hole is formed at the center of the bowl-shaped support. The curved base is fixedly connected to the front tubular legs.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0021] The present disclosure will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and the specific embodiments.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, a folding chair is provided, including two front tubular legs 11, two rear tubular legs 12 and a seat cushion board 13. One of the front tubular legs 11 is intersected with one of the rear tubular legs 12, and a washer 14 is arranged at an intersection position of the front tubular legs 11, i.e., this washer 14 is located between the front tubular leg 11 and the rear tubular leg 12. A pin 18 passes through the front tubular leg 11, the washer 14, and the rear tubular leg 12 successively. The washer is provided with a curved base 141 and a bowl-shaped support. The bowl-shaped support 142 is located in a central area of the curved base, and a through hole, through which the pin 18 passes, is formed at the center of the bowl-shaped support. The curved base 141 is fixedly connected to the front tubular legs 11. Such structure can reduce the friction between the two tubular legs to prevent hands from being pinched, and can enhance its load-bearing capacity while reducing the weight of the folding chair.

[0034] The curved base 141 of the present disclosure is directly connected to the front tubular leg 11s through fusion welding, so they are connected firmly. The curved base 141 is provided with a leak-off chute 143 which is arranged parallel to the axial direction of the tubular legs and communicates with the inside of the bowl-shaped support 142. In this way, the chemical solution may accumulate in the washer 14 during the pre-treatment soaking process of the folding chair, and the leak-off chute 143 facilitates the outflow of the chemical solution accumulated in the washer 14.

[0035] The two rear tubular legs 12 are formed by bending a straight tube into a U shape, such that an open end of the U shape is an end of the rear tubular leg 12 in contact with the ground and the bottom of the U shape is a support end of the rear tubular leg 12. The seat cushion board 13 has a gusset plate 15 with both ends thereof being fixedly connected to a bottom surface of the seat cushion board 13 respectively, and the support end of the rear tubular leg 12 passes through the gusset plate 15 and the seat cushion board 13. The support end can slide from one end of the gusset plate 15 to the other end thereof, enabling the folding chair to be in an unfolded state and a folded state accordingly. A connecting rod 16 is arranged between the ends of the rear tubular legs 12 in contact with the ground. The front tubular legs 11 are also formed by bending a straight tube into a U shape. A connecting rod 16 is also arranged between ends of the front tubular legs 11 in contact with the ground, and a backboard 17 is arranged on the other end of the two front tubular legs 11.

[0036] In the present disclosure, an included angle between the front tubular leg 11 and the ground is set to 552 degrees, and an included angle between the rear tubular leg 12 and the ground is set to 642 degrees. Preferably, an included angle between the front tubular leg 11 and the rear tubular leg 12 is set to 782 degrees, and the rear leg tube is provided with a bent portion. The front tubular leg 11 and the rear tubular leg 12 form a quadrangle with the ground.

[0037] By setting the angles in this way, the reliability of the seat cushion board 13 can be ensured.

[0038] The forgoing are further detailed descriptions of the present disclosure with reference to the specific embodiments, and it is not intended that the specific implementation of the present disclosure is limited to these descriptions. For a person of ordinary skill in the art to which the present disclosure belongs, a number of simple deductions or replacements can also be made without departing from the concept of the present disclosure and should all be considered as falling within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
