Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of folding chairs, in particular to a frame structure of a folding office chair. Background Art

[0002] In order to ensure the comfort of the seat, existing office chairs usually have a sponge cushion on the seat. However, at the connection between the sponge cushion and the backrest in the frame structure of the office chair, there is an obvious height difference when the backrest lies flat at an angle greater than 140 degrees, resulting in a suspended position in the waist area. For example, an office chair disclosed in the prior application CN208550556U. At the same time, for a folding office chair, the folding of the product also needs to be considered, that is, the backrest tube and the top of the sponge cushion need to be close to horizontal in the folded state to reduce the volume in the folded state and facilitate packaging and transportation.

The backrest tube and the seat surface side rod are connected through a seat surface adapter. A backrest cross bar opposite to the seat cushion is provided on the backrest tube to support the user's waist when the chair lies flat.

[0006] Preferably, the seat surface adapter includes a plug-in part connected to the seat surface side rod and a rotating part connected to the plug-in part. The rotating part is rotatably connected with a backrest adapter. Two groups of backrest adapters are respectively connected to both ends of the backrest tube. The backrest cross bar is arranged between the two groups of backrest adapters. When the chair lies flat, the backrest cross bar is located below the backrest tube, reducing the suspension of the user's waist while the backrest cross bar does not press against the waist.

[0007] The rotating part extends along the height direction of the seat cushion, so that when the chair lies flat, the backrest tube is close to horizontal with the top surface of the seat cushion, reducing the suspension of the waist; and when the chair is folded, the backrest tube is close to horizontal with the top surface of the seat cushion, and the backrest cross bar is located above the backrest tube, reducing the floor area of the chair after folding.

[0008] Preferably, the height of the rotating part is equal to the height of the seat cushion. At least two seat surface cross bars are arranged between the two groups of seat surface side rods to fixedly support the seat cushion; the seat cushion is a sponge cushion, and its front end is provided with an arc to fit the bottom of the human knee.

[0009] Preferably, footrest connectors are respectively provided on the two sets of seat surface side rods. The footrest connectors are provided with telescopic through holes, and telescopic tubes are slidably arranged in the telescopic through holes. The end of the telescopic tube is connected to the footrest.

[0010] Preferably, a flipping connector is connected to the end of the telescopic tube. The flipping connector is provided with a fixing hole and a flipping hole. A fixing rod is inserted into the fixing hole, and a flipping cross bar is inserted into the flipping hole. The footrest is fixed on the flipping cross bar. When using the footrest, the telescopic tube is stretched and the flipping cross bar is flipped until the front side of the footrest faces upward, and the fixing rod supports the footrest; when not using the footrest, the flipping cross bar is flipped until the front side of the footrest faces downward and the telescopic tube is contracted, and the footrest is placed under the seat cushion.

[0011] Preferably, the two sets of backrest adapter pieces are respectively provided with vertical tube holes for inserting and installing the backrest tubes and cross bar holes for inserting and installing the backrest cross bars, so as to quickly install the backrest tubes and the backrest cross bars; the backrest tube includes two backrest main tubes inserted into the vertical tube holes and an arc tube connected to the two backrest main tubes. The arc tube bends towards the top of the seat cushion to form a pillow area for the user's headrest.

[0012] Preferably, the two backrest main tubes and the arc tube are integrally formed and are sleeved with a backrest soft package.

[0013] Preferably, the backrest main tube is rotated with a backrest support tube through a support connector, so as to support the backrest tube when the chair lies flat; a ground support connector is provided on the side of the backrest support tube close to the ground to increase the friction force and provide the support stability of the backrest support tube.

[0014] Preferably, the seat surface adapter piece is rotatably connected with a flipping strip, and the other end of the flipping strip is rotatably connected with the chair leg to play a supporting role.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are:

[0016] The frame structure of the present utility model is applicable to various folding office chairs. With the cooperation of the backrest tube and the seat surface side rod, the chair can be seated, reclined and folded. In the reclined state, the backrest cross bar fits better with the waist, solving the problem that the waist is suspended when the user lies flat; at the same time, in the folded state, the top of the backrest tube and the sponge seat cushion are close to horizontal, so as to reduce the volume in the folded state and facilitate packaging and transportation.
