Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chair technology, and more specifically to a garden chair. Background Technology

[0002] A simple garden chair is just a stool. However, as usage requirements have increased, a simple stool is no longer sufficient. Moreover, the ground in the environment where garden chairs are used is not flat.

[0003] This application proposes a garden chair that can be folded and has an adjustable support height. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a garden chair that can be folded and has adjustable support height.

[0005] This utility model provides a garden chair, including a stool. The stool includes a support frame, with U-shaped ends opening outwards at both ends of the support frame. Each U-shaped end is provided with a leg, which includes a vertically arranged double leg support and a U-shaped portion. The U-shaped portion is fixedly mounted on the upper part of the double leg support, and the lower end of the double leg support is provided with a height adjustment seat. The two side walls of the U-shaped portion are hinged to the two side walls of the U-shaped ends, and a locking structure is provided between the two side walls of the U-shaped portion and the two side walls of the U-shaped ends. When the locking structure is locked, the two side walls of the U-shaped portion and the two side walls of the U-shaped ends are fixed to each other, and the double leg support provides support for the stool. When the locking structure is unlocked, the two side walls of the U-shaped portion can rotate relative to the two side walls of the U-shaped ends through the hinges, and the double leg support folds downwards towards the stool under this rotation.

[0006] In this technical solution, each leg support has a height-adjustable seat at its lower end to allow for height adjustment. Simultaneously, the two side walls of the U-shaped section are hinged to the two side walls of the U-shaped end, and a locking mechanism is provided between them. When the locking mechanism is locked, the two side walls of the U-shaped section and the two side walls of the U-shaped end are relatively fixed, and the leg supports provide support for the seat. When the locking mechanism is unlocked, the two side walls of the U-shaped section can rotate relative to the two side walls of the U-shaped end through the hinges, causing the leg supports to fold downwards towards the seat, thus achieving a switch between the two states and realizing a foldable design. The combination of the aforementioned height adjustment and folding design makes the garden chair better suited to the needs of gardening activities.

[0007] As an improvement, the support includes two H-frames and two connecting plates. The outer ends of the two H-frames are U-shaped ends, and the inner ends of the two H-frames are arranged adjacently or docked. The two connecting plates connect the inner parts of the two H-frames.

[0008] As an improvement, a plastic support plate is also included, which is located in the space enclosed by the inner parts of the two H-frames, and connecting holes are provided on both sides of the plastic support plate. The two connecting plates connect the inner parts of the two H-frames and fix the plastic support plate between the inner parts of the two H-frames.

[0009] As an improvement, the plastic support plate features a hollowed-out mesh design for lightweight construction.

[0010] As an improvement, cushions are provided on both the top and bottom sides of the plastic support plate.

[0011] As an improvement, the two side walls of the U-shaped part are hinged to the two side walls of the U-shaped end via a connecting shaft. The outer ends of the two side walls of the U-shaped end are provided with slots, and the two side walls of the U-shaped part are provided with a horizontally movable locking shaft. The two side walls of the U-shaped part are provided with sliding grooves that slide with the two ends of the locking shaft. When the locking shaft moves to one side of the slot, the locking shaft can engage with the slot to form a lock. At this time, the two side walls of the U-shaped part and the two side walls of the U-shaped end are relatively fixed, and the double leg support provides support for the stool. When the locking shaft moves away from the slot, the locking shaft can separate from the slot to form an unlock. At this time, the two side walls of the U-shaped part can rotate relative to the two side walls of the U-shaped end through the aforementioned hinge, and the double leg support folds down towards the lower side of the stool under this rotation.

[0012] As an improvement, a spring is also included, which is connected to the retaining shaft and is used to provide elastic force for the retaining shaft to return to its original position.

[0013] As an improvement, a spring is placed between the double leg support and the locking shaft. In the initial state, the spring presses the locking shaft to move to one side of the locking groove so that the locking shaft engages in the locking groove. When unlocking is required, the user moves the locking shaft away from the locking groove, and the spring compresses and continues to exert its elastic force. When locking is required, the user releases the locking shaft, and the spring automatically presses the locking shaft to move towards the locking groove so that the locking shaft engages in the locking groove.

[0021] To better understand this application, various aspects of this application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these detailed descriptions are merely illustrative of exemplary embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of this application in any way. Throughout the specification, the same reference numerals refer to the same elements.

[0022] In the accompanying drawings, the thickness, size, and shape of the objects have been slightly exaggerated for illustrative purposes. The drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not drawn to scale.

[0023] It should also be understood that the terms “comprising,” “including,” “having,” “containing,” “comprise,” and “containing”, when used in this specification, indicate the presence of the described features, integrals, steps, operations, elements, and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integrals, steps, operations, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this disclosure proposes a garden chair, including a stool. The stool includes a support frame, with U-shaped ends 1 opening outwards at both ends of the support frame. Each U-shaped end 1 is provided with a leg, which includes a vertically arranged double leg support 2 and a U-shaped part 3. The U-shaped part 3 is fixedly disposed on the upper part of the double leg support 2. The lower end of the double leg support 2 is provided with a height adjustment seat 4. The two side walls of the U-shaped part 3 are hinged to the two side walls of the U-shaped end 1, and a locking structure is provided between the two side walls of the U-shaped part 3 and the two side walls of the U-shaped end 1. When the locking structure is locked, the two side walls of the U-shaped part 3 are fixed to the two side walls of the U-shaped end 1, and the double leg support 2 provides support for the stool. When the locking structure is unlocked, the two side walls of the U-shaped part 3 can rotate relative to the two side walls of the U-shaped end 1 through the hinges, and the double leg support 2 folds down towards the lower side of the stool under this rotation.

[0025] To allow for a greater range of adjustment, the support rod of the double leg support 2 is configured as a telescopic rod with a height that can be adjusted by a screw. Of course, other telescopic structures can also be applied to this disclosure.

[0026] As shown in the figure, there are four height adjustment seats 4 and four support rods, all of which can be adjusted independently to meet different terrain requirements.

[0027] For ease of production and manufacturing, such as Figure 3 , 4 As shown in Figure 5, the support includes two H-frames 5 and two connecting plates 6. The outer ends of the two H-frames 5 serve as U-shaped ends 1, and the inner ends of the two H-frames 5 are arranged adjacently or connected. The two connecting plates 6 connect the inner parts 8 of the two H-frames 5.

[0028] The inner ends of two H-frames 5 are arranged adjacently or joined together to form a rectangular opening, and are fixed by bolts with two connecting plates 6, thus forming a sturdy frame and facilitating production and manufacturing.

[0029] Furthermore, to facilitate manufacturing, a plastic support plate 7 is included. This plastic support plate 7 is located within the space enclosed by the inner sides 8 of the two H-frames 5, meaning it fits snugly into the rectangular opening. Connecting holes are provided on both sides of the plastic support plate 7. Two connecting plates 6 connect the inner sides 8 of the two H-frames 5 while simultaneously fixing the plastic support plate 7 between them. That is, when the two connecting plates 6 are fixed by bolts, each bolt simultaneously connects to the connecting holes. Thus, the support structure composed of the two H-frames 5, the two connecting plates 6, and the plastic support plate 7 is not only easy to manufacture but also very robust, while also being lightweight.

[0030] For further weight reduction considerations, such as Figure 2 As shown, the plastic support plate 7 has a hollowed-out mesh lightweight design.

[0031] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the plastic support plate 7 has cushions 9 on both the upper and lower sides. This allows for use from both the upper and lower sides.

[0032] Lock structures can be different; in this example, such as... Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3, 4, 5, and 6, the preferred design of the folding structure is as follows: the two side walls of the U-shaped portion 3 are hinged to the two side walls of the U-shaped end 1 via a connecting shaft 10; the outer ends of the two side walls of the U-shaped end 1 are provided with slots 11; a laterally movable retaining shaft 12 is provided between the two side walls of the U-shaped portion 3; sliding grooves 13 are provided on the two side walls of the U-shaped portion 3 to slide and engage with the two ends of the retaining shaft 12; the sliding grooves 13 also provide support for the retaining shaft 12 as follows: Figure 1The vertical limiting mechanism shown has a sliding groove 13 located on one side of the U-shaped end 1 that overlaps with the slot 11. When the locking shaft 12 moves towards the slot 11, it engages with the slot 11 to lock. At this time, the two side walls of the U-shaped part 3 are relatively fixed to the two side walls of the U-shaped end 1, and the double leg support 2 supports the seat. When the locking shaft 12 moves away from the slot 11, it separates from the slot 11 to unlock. At this time, the two side walls of the U-shaped part 3 can rotate relative to the two side walls of the U-shaped end 1 through the hinge, and the double leg support 2 folds towards the lower side of the seat under this rotation. Thus, the structure is simple, reliable, and easy to operate.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a spring 14, which is connected to the retaining shaft 12 and is used to provide elastic force for the retaining shaft 12 to return to its original position.

[0034] In this example, as Figure 1 As shown, spring 14 is positioned between the double-leg support 2 and the retaining shaft 12, as... Figure 6 As shown, a support part 15 is provided between the two leg supports 2. In the initial state, the outer end of the spring 14 presses against the inner side of the support part 15, and the inner end of the spring 14 presses the locking shaft 12 to move towards the locking groove 11 so that the locking shaft 12 is engaged in the locking groove 11. When unlocking is required, the user moves the locking shaft 12 away from the locking groove 11, and the spring 14 compresses and continues to exert elastic force. When locking is required, the user releases the locking shaft 12, and the spring 14 automatically presses the locking shaft 12 to move towards the locking groove 11 so that the locking shaft 12 is engaged in the locking groove 11.

[0035] This utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Anyone can derive other products in various forms under the guidance of this utility model. However, regardless of any changes made in its shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same as or similar to this application falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
