Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present technical solution relates to the technical field of reclining chairs, and particularly refers to a foldable reclining chair that can be stably adjusted. Background Art

[0002] A reclining chair is a piece of furniture designed for rest and relaxation, usually having an inclined or adjustable backrest, an ergonomic seat, and soft armrests. Depending on ergonomics and comfort, it is designed to conform to the body curve of a person, and through its adjustment ability, it can achieve semi-reclining, semi-sitting, or fully lying flat use, thus obtaining a comfortable experience as a modern household item.

[0003] The adjustment of the existing reclining chair backrest is generally set at the armrest. There are adjustment gears provided under the armrest, and the rear end thereof is movably connected to the chair back. A user can adjust the comfortable angle they want. When the chair back is adjusted to different angles, especially a relatively inclined position, due to the characteristics of the connection between the adjustment gears under the armrest and the chair back, and the limitation of the folding function of the seat, it is prone to shaking, tilting, or even collapsing, resulting in poor overall stability of the seat, which needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present technical solution provides a foldable reclining chair that can be stably adjusted in order to improve the problem of poor stability of a foldable seat with an armrest-adjustable chair back.

[0005] The purpose of the present technical solution is achieved as follows:

[0006] A foldable reclining chair that can be stably adjusted includes a seat body, support legs movably arranged on opposite sides of the seat body, and an armrest part. The seat body includes a seat portion and a chair back portion. The chair back portion is hinged to the rear side of the seat portion to form a hinge point. A positioning structure is provided between the seat body and the support legs. The positioning structure includes a locking part arranged at the rear side of the support legs and a clamping part arranged on the seat body. The clamping part is coaxially arranged with the hinge point. The locking part has a positioning groove for the locking part to be fitted into. The locking part abuts against the side wall of the positioning groove to limit the flipping of the seat body and the support legs. When the locking part disengages from the positioning groove, the seat body and the support legs can cooperate to be folded.

[0007] Through the above technical solution, when the adjustable folding deck chair is in normal use, the lower end of the backrest in the seat body is hinged to the rear end of the seat portion, and this hinged portion is a hinge point, enabling the backrest to be flipped relative to the seat portion to adjust different angles to meet different sitting and lying needs. Two support legs are movably installed on opposite sides of the seat body to form a stable support, and the height between the seat portion and the ground is adapted to the height of the legs in the human sitting position, and the height between the armrest portion and the seat portion is suitable for the arm support in the sitting position to ensure comfort. The locking portion fixed to the seat body is embedded in the positioning groove on the clamping portion, and the pressure exerted by the human sitting posture is applied through the locking portions on both sides against the side walls of the positioning groove and transmitted to the support leg provided with the clamping portion to form a stable support, so that the folding between the seat body and the support legs will not be driven when the backrest is adjusted, improving the stability of the deck chair during use.

[0008] Preferably, the support leg includes a front support leg and a rear support leg. The end of the front support leg is hinged to the end of the rear support leg. The middle of the front support leg is hinged to the seat portion, and the locking portion is provided at the rear side of the rear support leg.

[0009] The seat body is provided with a connecting rod. One end of the connecting rod is arranged on the locking portion, and the other end is hinged downward in the middle of the rear support leg.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, based on each support leg including two legs, the two support legs form four support points on the ground to stably support the overall use. The front support leg is hinged to the rear support leg, the front support leg is hinged to the seat portion, and the seat portion is hinged to the backrest, enabling these components to be flexibly flipped along the hinged positions to achieve folding. With the connecting rod taking the hinge point as the center of the circle, one end is provided with a locking portion, and with the distance from the locking portion to the hinged portion as the radius, the position of the locking portion is a point on this circumference, realizing that the connecting rod enables the locking portion to be on the trajectory where it can be fitted with the positioning groove along its rotation direction, so that it is not necessary to align the locking portion with the positioning groove when the seat body is opened, improving the convenience of use and the accuracy of fitting, and at the same time improving the stability of the seat and further enhancing the stability.

[0011] Preferably, the rear end of the armrest portion is hinged to the backrest. A locking structure is provided between the armrest portion and the support leg. The locking structure includes an adjusting member provided at the top of the front support leg and a locking member provided on the armrest portion.

[0012] The locking member has a locking portion. The locking portion is distributed along the length direction of the locking member, and a locking groove is left between two adjacent locking portions.

[0013] The adjusting member has an adjusting portion that slidably cooperates with the locking member, so that the adjusting portion is fitted with different locking grooves to adjust the rotation angle of the backrest.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, when it is necessary to adjust the rotation angle of the chair backrest, the locking member is lifted by pulling the armrest, and the adjusting portion originally fitted in the locking groove is released. The user can move the armrest back and forth, and the armrest rotates relative to the chair backrest, correspondingly driving the rotation of the chair backrest. Align the selected position of the locking groove with the adjusting portion and insert and fit them to limit the continuous rotation of the chair backrest. The chair backrest can be conveniently adjusted to different angles, enhancing the adjustment flexibility and practicality of the recliner.

[0015] Preferably, the locking member is provided with a limiting portion. There are two limiting portions, and the two limiting portions are respectively located on the opposite sides of the locking member along the relative sliding direction of the adjusting portion and the locking member. The width of the adjusting portion is greater than the distance between the two limiting portions.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, to ensure the relative sliding relationship between the locking member and the adjusting member, the cooperation of the two limiting portions of the locking member causes the adjusting portion to be restricted by the limiting portions during the sliding of the locking member, so as to maintain in a stable sliding track, limit the detachment between the adjusting member and the locking member when the armrest is pulled, and achieve a stable locking effect, improving the reliability of the adjustment.

[0017] Preferably, an installation groove is formed on the lower end surface of the armrest, and the locking member is installed in the installation groove, and the adjusting portion is located in the installation groove;

[0018] The armrest is further provided with two mounting plates, and the two mounting plates are arranged at the notch of the installation groove for restricting the detachment of the locking member.

[0019] Through the above technical solution, the locking member is installed in the installation groove, and the two mounting plates are arranged at the notch position of the installation groove to limit the moving range of the locking member in the installation groove, thereby preventing the locking member from accidentally falling off or loosening during use.

[0020] Preferably, a relief groove is formed on the mounting plate, and the two relief grooves are respectively formed on the opposite end faces of the two mounting plates, and the relief grooves on both sides are spliced and matched for the adjusting member to pass through.

[0021] Through the above technical solution, the relief grooves on the two mounting plates are opposite. When the two mounting plates are fixed at the notch position of the installation groove, the two relief grooves will be spliced and matched into a complete channel, and the adjusting member will slide smoothly along the direction of the relief groove to cooperate or unlock with the locking member, while ensuring the limiting effect of the mounting plate on the locking member.

[0022] Preferably, the opposite inner walls of the locking groove are inclined outward along the distribution direction, and the inclination direction is such that the width of the locking groove is flared toward the through end, and the shape of the adjusting portion is adapted to the locking groove.

[0023] Through the above technical solution, the flared opening of the locking groove faces the adjusting part, which facilitates the more accurate fitting of the adjusting part with the locking groove during the sliding process, making the adjustment process of the locking structure smoother and easier to operate.

[0024] The prominent and beneficial technical effects of this technical solution compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0025] 1. In this technical solution, by embedding the locking part provided on the seat body into the positioning groove on the clamping part, the pressure exerted by the human sitting posture is transmitted through the two-sided locking parts against the side walls of the positioning groove and then to the support leg provided with the clamping part, forming a stable support, so that the folding between the seat body and the support leg will not occur when adjusting the backrest of the chair, improving the stability of the reclining chair during use;

[0026] 2. In this technical solution, a locking structure is provided between the armrest part and the support leg, which includes an adjusting part provided at the top of the front support leg and a locking part provided on the armrest part. The locking part has several locking parts, and a locking groove is left between two adjacent locking parts. By aligning and inserting the selected position of the locking groove with the adjusting part, the backrest of the chair can be conveniently adjusted to different angles, enhancing the adjustment flexibility and practicality of the reclining chair.
