Their sturdy and durable characteristics allow them to withstand a certain amount of weight, ensuring safe use.

[0003] Existing technologies include, for example, the utility model with publication number CN206852387U. This utility model relates to the field of folding stools, specifically a folding stool that solves the problem of fatigue after prolonged sitting due to the lack of a backrest, thus requiring improvement in comfort. The key technical features include a top plate that can be folded along its center, with a pull ring in the center; two opposing first side plates hinged to the two parallel edges of the top plate; two opposing second side plates, each hinged to the adjacent first side plates on both sides; a hinge in the center of each second side plate, allowing each second side plate to be folded along its center; and a backrest extending upwards from one of the first side plates. It achieves quick opening and closing, and is convenient to carry and use. On this basis, by setting a backrest on the first side panel, it does not hinder the use of the folding stool and can further enhance the sitting experience. However, the existing folding stools are only used as folding seats, and their single function limits the diversity of use scenarios. In some situations where they need to temporarily serve as a table or a comfortable chair, the folding stool cannot meet the needs. Under different needs, it is necessary to prepare a variety of furniture, which increases the cost and storage space pressure.

[0004] To address the issue that existing folding stools are only used as folding seats, limiting their versatility and making them unsuitable for various occasions where they need to temporarily function as tables or comfortable chairs, requiring the preparation of multiple pieces of furniture to meet different needs, thus increasing costs and storage space pressure, current technology addresses this by purchasing various furniture items. However, this increases costs for users and further exacerbates the problem of the folding stool's limited functionality. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing folding stools, which are only used as folding seats and have a single function that limits the diversity of usage scenarios. In some situations where they need to temporarily serve as tables or comfortable chairs, folding stools cannot meet the requirements. This leads to the need to prepare multiple types of furniture for different needs, increasing costs and storage space pressure. Therefore, this utility model proposes a lightweight, multi-functional, portable folding chair.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a lightweight, multifunctional, portable folding chair, including a seat, a load-bearing keel fixedly connected to the lower surface of the seat, a groove formed on the surface of the load-bearing keel, a second stool leg slidably connected to the groove on the surface of the load-bearing keel, a sixth pivot fixedly connected to the lower surface of the seat, a first stool leg rotatably connected to the surface of the sixth pivot, a fifth pivot installed on the side of the first stool leg near the second stool leg, the first stool leg and the second stool leg being arranged in a cross configuration, the side of the second stool leg near the first stool leg being rotatably connected to the first stool leg, a fourth pivot installed on the upper surface of the seat, a connecting keel rotatably connected to the surface of the fourth pivot, a second pivot installed on the upper surface of the connecting keel, and a cushion rotatably connected to the upper surface of the second pivot.

[0007] Preferably, a third rotating shaft is mounted on the surface of the connecting keel, and a bending plate is rotatably connected to the surface of the third rotating shaft.

[0008] Preferably, the upper surface of the bending plate is rotatably connected to a connector, and the lower surface of the pad is provided with a strip groove.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] In this invention, during use, unfolding the first and second stool legs transforms the device into a simple table. Grasping the pull groove and pulling the pad upwards causes the fourth rotating shaft to rotate, unfolding the pad. Then, bending the pad causes the first rotating shaft to rotate, folding the connecting piece and bending plate together. When the pad abuts against the connecting keel, the device becomes a chair with a backrest. When the device is not in use, pulling the pad and connecting keel together and aligning it with the chair again causes the magnet in the support plate to magnetically attract the pad and chair. Then, rotating the first and second stool legs and bending them together transforms the device into a chair with a backrest. The storage slots collide to complete the storage. This utility model is highly multifunctional and can be flexibly converted between a stool, table, and chair to meet the needs of different scenarios. Whether it is a table where items need to be temporarily placed, a comfortable chair, or a simple stool, it can be easily achieved, greatly improving practicality. When not in use, the components can be quickly folded and stored. The first and second stool legs are folded in half and collide with the storage slots. After the cushion and seat are magnetically attached, the overall space occupied is small, making it convenient to store in various small spaces without taking up too much space, especially suitable for environments with limited space.
