The bottom end of the supporting foot rod 100 can be telescopically adjusted, so that when the folding chair frame is opened and folded, as the angle between the paired cross rods 210 changes, the bottom end of the cross rod 210 slides along the supporting foot rod 100, and when the folding chair frame is opened, the positions of the cross rod 210 and the supporting foot rod 100 are relatively fixed. At this time, the bottom end of the supporting foot rod 100 can still be telescopically adjusted to change the height of the supporting structure under the seat cushion, so that the height of the folding chair frame can be flexibly adjusted (for example, it can be adjusted by Figure 1 The displayed state shrinks to Fig.10 The folding chair frame provided by the utility model is shown in the state shown in the figure, which ensures the adaptability of the folding chair (for example, a folding dining chair) to complex scenes.

[0062] It can be understood that the top end of the supporting foot rod 100 can be used to fix the seat cushion. For example, when the folding chair frame includes four supporting foot rods 100, the seat cushion can be rectangular in shape, and a hole structure is set at the four corners. The seat cushion is fixed by being mounted on the top end of the four supporting foot rods 100.

[0063] As an optional implementation of the present utility model, Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the folding chair frame includes four supporting foot rods 100 and corresponding four connecting components 200, wherein the length of the tops of two adjacent supporting foot rods 100 extending beyond the fixed hinge 300 is greater than the length of the tops of the other two supporting foot rods 100 extending beyond the fixed hinge 300.

[0064] In an embodiment of the utility model, the stacking chair frame includes two supporting legs 100 with longer tops and two supporting legs 100 with shorter tops. The two supporting legs 100 with longer tops can be used to prop up the backrest, and the two supporting legs 100 with shorter tops can be used to fix auxiliary structures such as dining plates.

[0065] In order to improve the stability of the standing posture of the folding chair frame, as an optional implementation of the utility model, Figures 1 to 6As shown, a foot pad 130 is provided at the bottom end of the supporting foot bar 100, and the bottom of the foot pad 130 has a ground contact surface, and the ground contact surfaces of the bottoms of multiple foot pads 130 can be coplanar when the folding chair frame is opened.
