Leisure chair

A leisure chair comprising a knockdown frame having only four component parts, each being substantially planar for compactness, said component parts including a pair of separate generally U-shaped frame portions, one constituting a support frame portion and the other constituting a backrest frame portion and each being formed from one relatively long piece of bent metal, and a pair of relatively short generally L-shaped connectors adapted for a telescopic fit with the ends of said frame portions to form a rigid frame of generally L-shape as viewed from the side, each L-shaped connector being formed from one relatively short piece of bent metal, a removable cover formed to fit over the frame and to hold said component parts in assembly, and a cushion swingable relative to the frame about an axis extending transversely of the frame at said connectors, said chair, when assembled, being adapted to be positioned on a floor in a first position in which the support portion of the frame rests flat on the floor and the backrest frame portion at one end of the support portion constituting its front end extends upwardly and rearwardly from said one end of the support portion with the cover providing a backrest, and in which said cushion extends forwardly from the frame and rests on the floor for providing a seat, said chair being adapted to be overturned from said first position to a second position in which the support portion of the frame extends upwardly from the floor and the backrest frame portion slopes downwardly from the upper end of the support portion to the floor with the cover presenting a reclining surface, the cushion being swingable to a position in which it rests substantially flat against said surface to provide a headrest for one reclining on said surface, said support and backrest frame portions being formed for nonrocking engagement with the floor when the chair is in said second position.
