Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of folding chairs, in particular to a folding office chair convenient for taking a nap. Background Art
[0002] The existing office chairs have the following problems: (1) In order to ensure the comfort of the seat, a sponge cushion is usually provided on the seat. However, there is an obvious height difference at the connection between the sponge cushion and the backrest in the frame structure of the office chair when the backrest lies flat at an angle greater than 140 degrees, resulting in a suspended position in the waist area, such as an office chair disclosed in the prior application CN208550556U. At the same time, 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.
[0003] (2) The existing office chairs have metal external teeth or metal internal teeth, with the front and rear legs arranged in a staggered manner, and the combined adapter is a sheet metal bending adapter. Therefore, the collision noise between metals is relatively large during use, and the angles of each gear are not considered, resulting in different feelings for each gear when adjusting the gear.
[0004] (3) The telescopic leg rest module telescopic rod of the existing office chair is integrally bent. Considering the limitation of the bending length, the telescopic limit length of the leg rest is relatively short, so the applicable human height is limited. The existing solution is immovable.

[0051] A turning connecting member 44 is connected to the end of the telescopic tube 42. The turning connecting member 44 is provided with a fixing hole and a turning hole. A fixing rod 45 is inserted into the fixing hole, and a turning cross bar 46 is inserted into the turning hole. The footrest 43 is fixed on the turning cross bar 46. When using the footrest, the telescopic tube 42 is stretched and the turning cross bar 46 is turned until the front of the footrest 43 faces upward, and the fixing rod 45 supports the footrest 43; when not using the footrest, the turning cross bar 46 is turned until the front of the footrest 43 faces downward and the telescopic tube 42 is contracted, and the footrest 43 is placed under the seat cushion 12.
[0052] Working principle and usage method: In the folded state, pull the backrest module 20 backward and push the combined armrest 31 forward at the same time. When the protruding rod 6 touches the front end of the rear leg tube 33, the sitting posture state is completed; in the sitting posture state, lift the armrest 31 with both hands, adjust it to the appropriate gear, and then press down the armrest to complete the fixation (when the gear fixing post 343 touches the gear fixing block 314 inside the armrest 31), the maximum lying flat state. At the same time, pull up the backrest support tube 25 and snap it into the backrest tube 21, and pull out the telescopic tube 42 to the limit, and turn the footrest 43 by 180 degrees to complete (see Figures 1-3 the figure of the semi-reclining posture state); the reverse operation is vice versa.
