Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bar stool technology, specifically relating to a folding portable bar stool. Background Technology

[0002] There are many types of bar stools, but their basic structure consists of an upper seat, middle legs, and a lower base. Heating is typically pneumatically driven, with the lifting mechanism using piston movement to adjust the stool's height. This mechanism generally uses an outer tube and a cylinder. For example, the bar stool in patent publication number CN2857645Y has a footrest located at the bottom of the lifting tube. When the user adjusts the seat height, the footrest rises or falls along with the seat, and the distance between the seat and footrest remains constant. This prevents the user's feet from dangling due to the seat being raised too high. However, this type of bar stool has a fixed shape, making it inconvenient to fold and store. Furthermore, frequent height adjustments via the lifting mechanism can cause gas in the cylinder to escape from a weak friction point, potentially leading to an explosion and reducing the safety of the bar stool.
