Abstract
A foldable chair includes a seat member having a front side for supporting a user and a back side, a backrest member having a front surface for supporting the user and a back surface, and a plurality of legs. Each of the legs is pivotably connected to the back side of the seat member and each leg is adapted to pivot from a folded configuration where each leg is generally parallel to the back side of the seat member to an unfolded configuration where each leg is generally transverse to the back side of the seat member. The backrest member is configured to hingedly engage the seat member and to selectively enclose at least the back side of the seat member to form a portable case.
Claims18
A foldable chair comprising:
- a seat member having a front side for supporting a user and a back side;
- a backrest member having a front surface for supporting the user and a back surface;
- a plurality of legs, each of the legs is pivotably connected to the back side of the seat member and each leg is adapted to pivot from a folded configuration where each leg is generally parallel to the back side of the seat member to an unfolded configuration where each leg is generally transverse to the back side of the seat member;
- and
- a main lock assembly connected to the back side of the seat member and operable to lock and unlock the legs in the folded and unfolded configurations;
- wherein the backrest and seat members are configured to selectively form a portable case by the backrest member hingedly engaging the seat member to enclose at least the back side of the seat member.
A foldable chair comprising:
- a seat member having a front side for supporting a user and a back side;
- a backrest member having a front surface for supporting the user and a back surface;
- a plurality of leg assemblies pivotably connected to the back side of the seat member, each of the leg assemblies including a leg extension slidable from a collapsed position to a deployed position, wherein each of the leg assemblies is adapted to pivot from a folded configuration where each leg is generally adjacent and parallel to the back side of the seat member to an unfolded configuration where each leg is generally transverse to the back side of the seat member;
- and
- a main lock assembly connected to the back side of the seat member and operable to lock and unlock the leg assemblies in the folded and unfolded configurations;
- wherein the backrest and seat members are configured to selectively form a portable case having the leg assemblies in the folded configuration therein by the backrest member hingedly engaging the seat member to cover at least the back side of the seat member.
