Benefits of technology

[0026]All figures are drawn for ease of explanation of the basic teachings of the present invention only; the extensions of the Figures with respect to number, position, relationship, and dimensions of the parts to form the preferred embodiment will be explained or will be within the skill of the art after the following te

Problems solved by technology

Conventional chairs include a frame or board of a fixed width that can not be folded to reduce the volume when not in use, resulting in occupation of a larger space and difficult transport as well as an increase in transport.
Furthermore, the chairs are generally made of wood, plastics, or metal, which are heavy and, thus difficult to move.
However, these folding chairs still suffer from heavy weight and difficulties during unfolding.
Paper chairs are light but not as stable as those made of wood, plastics, or metal.
Particularly, the paper chairs in the extended state lack stability and safety.

Embodiment Construction

[0027]FIGS. 1 through 4 show a folding chair according to the preferred teachings of the present invention. The folding chair includes two side boards 1, a paper beehive structure 2, and a positioning device 3. The side boards 1 are made of materials that are not easy to deform, such as wood, metal, or plastics. Each side board 1 includes a plurality of through-holes 11 and a plurality of coupling holes 12.

[0028]The paper beehive structure 2 includes a plurality of paper boards 21 interconnected with one another. A plurality of polygonal holes 22 (FIG. 4) are formed between a pair of paper boards 21 adjacent to each other and extend perpendicularly to the ground when the paper beehive structure 2 is in an extended state. The paper beehive structure 2 can be folded or extended in a horizontal direction parallel to the ground. The paper boards 21 placed on the ground provide support in the vertical direction. The paper beehive structure 2 includes two sides 23 to which the side boards...

Abstract

A folding chair includes two side boards, a foldable paper beehive structure, and a positioning device. The foldable paper beehive structure includes a plurality of paper boards interconnected with one another. The paper beehive structure includes two sides to which the side boards are mounted to form a chair body. A plurality of polygonal holes are formed between two paper boards adjacent to each other. The polygonal holes extend perpendicularly to a ground on which the paper beehive structure is placed. The positioning device is made of rigid material and coupled with the side boards when the paper beehive structure is in an extended state to fix a width of the chair body.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a folding chair and, more particularly, to a chair that can be folded to reduce the volume when not in use and that can be extended and retained in a certain width to provide enhanced stability and enhanced safety.[0003]2. Description of the Prior Art[0004]Conventional chairs include a frame or board of a fixed width that can not be folded to reduce the volume when not in use, resulting in occupation of a larger space and difficult transport as well as an increase in transport. Furthermore, the chairs are generally made of wood, plastics, or metal, which are heavy and, thus difficult to move.[0005]Folding chairs made of metal or wood have been proposed to allow folding and easy transport. However, these folding chairs still suffer from heavy weight and difficulties during unfolding. Paper chairs are light but not as stable as those made of wood, plastics, or metal. Particularly, the pape...
