Obviously, the embodiments described below are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0027] The technical solutions of the utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific embodiments.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, the present utility model designs a footstool, which includes a stool body and universal wheels 4. The stool body includes a seat surface 1, a rotating shaft 2 and a storage bin 3. The storage bin 3 is hollow to form a storage space. The first end of the rotating shaft 2 is connected to the storage bin 3. A groove is provided at the position of the seat surface 1 corresponding to the rotating shaft 2. The second end of the rotating shaft 2 is limited in the groove. The universal wheels 4 are detachably connected to the bottom of the storage bin 3.

[0029] It should be noted that the footstool of the present utility model cleverly utilizes the volume of the footstool itself to provide additional storage capacity, meeting people's needs for storage space. To open or close the storage space, it is very simple to rotate the seat surface 1 around the rotating shaft. The universal wheels 4 are connected to the bottom of the storage bin 3. When it is necessary to move the footstool, it can easily slide on the ground without the need for strenuous handling. Of course, it should be noted that the universal wheels 4 and the storage bin 3 of the present utility model are connected by bolts. If the user wants to maintain the stability of the footstool, the universal wheels 4 can also be removed. The present utility model does not make any restrictions on this.

[0030] Specifically, the footstool further includes a power source, a lighting component and a switch 5. The power source is connected to the first end of the switch 5, and the lighting component is connected to the second end of the switch 5. The power source is used to supply power to the lighting component, and the switch 5 controls the opening and closing of the lighting component.

[0031] Specifically, a limiting groove and a limiting hole are provided on the outer wall of the seat surface 1. The lighting component includes a light strip 6. The size of the light strip 6 matches the size of the limiting groove, and the size of the switch 5 matches the size of the limiting hole. The light strip 6 is limited in the limiting groove, and the switch 5 is limited in the limiting hole.

[0032] As a lighting component, the light strip 6 has the characteristics of uniform, soft and non-glare light emission. The soft light emitted by it provides a comfortable lighting environment for users. The design of the switch 5 enables users to easily control the opening and closing of the lighting component. With a simple press, the lighting state can be switched, without the need for complex operations or searching for additional devices such as remote controls. This convenience greatly improves the user experience.

[0033] Specifically, the power source is a rechargeable battery. The seat surface 1 is provided with a battery compartment and a charging port. The rechargeable battery is located in the battery compartment, and an external power source charges the rechargeable battery through the charging port.

[0034] The rechargeable battery avoids the trouble of frequent battery replacement. Users only need to connect an external power source through the charging port to charge the battery, saving the additional cost and time of purchasing and replacing batteries. The battery compartment enables the rechargeable battery to be stably placed inside the seat surface 1, avoiding the shaking and damage of the battery during the movement of the footstool, and also reducing the erosion of dust and moisture on the battery, extending the service life of the battery.

[0035] Specifically, the footstool further includes a backrest, and the backrest is connected to the seat surface 1.

[0036] Specifically, the footstool further includes a locking member. The backrest includes a back plate 9 and a first support rod 8. The seat surface 1 is provided with a first storage groove and a first accommodation cavity 7. The first end of the first support rod 8 is located in the first storage groove and can slide along the first storage groove. The size of the first accommodation cavity 7 matches the size of the back plate 9. The cavity wall of the first accommodation cavity 7 is provided with a first through hole. A plurality of second through holes 10 are spaced apart in the height direction of the first support rod 8. The locking member passes through the first through hole and any one of the second through holes 10 to lock the backrest.

[0037] It should be noted that the backrest provides back support for the user and increases the comfort of sitting or lying for a long time. The seat surface 1 is provided with a first storage groove and a first accommodation cavity 7. The first support rod 8 can slide along the first storage groove. After the height of the backrest is adjusted, the locking member is passed through the first through hole and the second through hole 10 communicating with the first through hole to lock the backrest. When the backrest is not needed, the locking member is disengaged from the first through hole and the second through hole 10. Under the action of gravity, the first support rod 8 can slide down along the first storage groove. When the first support rod 8 completely slides into the first storage groove, the back plate 9 will completely slide into the first accommodation cavity 7, saving space.

[0038] Specifically, the footstool further includes an armrest member, and the armrest member is connected to the seat surface 1.

[0039] Specifically, the armrest includes an armrest plate 13 and a second support rod 12. The seat surface 1 is provided with a second storage groove and a second accommodation cavity 11. The first end of the second support rod 12 is located in the second storage groove and can slide along the second storage groove. The size of the second accommodation cavity 11 matches the size of the armrest plate 13. The cavity wall of the second accommodation cavity 11 is provided with a third through hole. A plurality of fourth through holes 14 are spaced apart in the height direction of the second support rod 12. The locking member passes through the third through hole and any one of the fourth through holes 14 to lock the armrest member.

[0040] It should be noted that the armrest member of the present utility model provides a support point for the user's arm. The seat surface 1 is provided with a second storage groove and a second accommodation cavity 11. The second support rod 12 can slide along the second storage groove. After the height of the armrest member is adjusted, the locking member is passed through the third through hole and the fourth through hole 14 communicating with the third through hole to lock the armrest member. When the armrest member is not needed, the locking member is disengaged from the third through hole and the fourth through hole 14. Under the action of gravity, the second support rod 12 can slide down along the second storage groove. When the second support rod 12 completely slides into the second storage groove, the armrest plate 13 will completely slide into the second accommodation cavity 11, saving space.

[0041] Specifically, both the armrest plate 13 and the back plate 9 are provided with a handle groove 15. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the armrest member or the backrest, the user can more easily hold the armrest plate 13 or the back plate 9 through the handle groove 15 to adjust the height, thereby improving the comfort and convenience of use.
