Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of household seating, and particularly relates to a household seating with variable length. Background Technology

[0002] In cities with high housing prices, maximizing indoor space is crucial. Almost every household has multiple chairs, each occupying a portion of the room. To accommodate occasional guests, the number of chairs often exceeds the needs of the regular household, causing unnecessary crowding. For example, adjustable-length dining tables exist. In normal use, they are set to a shorter length to reduce space, accommodating four chairs for the regular family. When guests are present, the table is adjusted to a longer length, requiring six chairs, with the extra two taking up additional space. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a variable-length home chair. When fewer seats are needed, it should be smaller to minimize space usage; when more seats are needed, it should be longer to accommodate more people. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a household chair with a variable length. This invention has the advantages of variable length and safe use.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A household chair with variable length includes a fixed seat plate, a plurality of fixed chair legs at the bottom of the fixed seat plate, a fixed backrest at the rear of the fixed seat plate, a rotating seat plate connected to at least one side of the fixed seat plate in the width direction, at least one rotating chair leg connected to the bottom of the rotating seat plate, a rotating backrest connected to the rear of the rotating seat plate, and a locking mechanism that can be opened is provided between the rotating backrest and the fixed backrest.

[0005] In the aforementioned variable-length household chair, rotating seat plates are connected to both sides of the fixed seat plate in the width direction.

[0006] In the aforementioned variable-length home seat, the locking mechanism includes a pin, one end of which enters a rotating seat plate, and the other end of which enters a fixed seat plate. A slider for connecting the pin is provided on the rear side of the fixed seat plate.

[0007] In the aforementioned variable-length home chair, the rear side of the fixed seat plate is provided with a groove that mates with the slider.

[0008] In the aforementioned variable-length home seat, the rear side of the slider is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0009] In the aforementioned variable-length home chair, the bottom surface of the rotating seat plate is connected to the fixed seat plate via a first hinge, the rear side of the rotating backrest is aligned with the rear side of the rotating seat plate, the rear side of the rotating seat plate is provided with a mounting groove, the bottom surface of the mounting groove is aligned with the front side of the rotating backrest, and the bottom surface of the rotating backrest is connected to the bottom surface of the mounting groove via a second hinge.

[0010] In the aforementioned variable-length home chair, a first connecting rod is provided on the wide outward side of the rotating backrest. One end of the first connecting rod is hinged to the rotating backrest, and the other end of the first connecting rod is hinged to a second connecting rod. The second connecting rod is hinged to the rotating seat plate. The hinge axis between the first connecting rod and the rotating backrest, the hinge axis between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, and the hinge axis between the second connecting rod and the rotating seat plate are located on the same plane.

[0011] In the aforementioned variable-length home chair, the bottom of the rotating seat plate is connected to two rotating chair legs. The rotating chair legs are connected to the bottom surface of the rotating seat plate via a third hinge. A third connecting rod is provided on one side of the rotating chair leg. One end of the third connecting rod is hinged to the rotating chair leg, and the other end of the third connecting rod is hinged to a fourth connecting rod. The fourth connecting rod is hinged to the bottom surface of the rotating seat plate. The hinge axis between the third connecting rod and the rotating chair leg, the hinge axis between the third connecting rod and the fourth connecting rod, and the hinge axis between the fourth connecting rod and the rotating seat plate are located on the same plane.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model features a fixed seat plate with a fixed backrest on its rear side, forming a fixed seat. A rotating seat plate is located on one side of the fixed seat plate, and a rotating backrest is located on the rear side of the rotating seat plate, forming a foldable seat. This provides at least two seats for at least two people, meeting the needs of families with more guests. When there are no guests, the fixed seat remains unchanged, while the side seats fold down, reducing the seat length and minimizing the space occupied in the room. Furthermore, through further structural improvements, connecting rods are installed between the rotating seat plate and the rotating chair legs, and between the rotating seat plate and the rotating backrest; a pin is installed between the rotating backrest and the fixed backrest, increasing the structural stability of the seat in its unfolded state and enhancing safety. Therefore, this utility model has the advantages of variable length and safe use. Attached Figure Description
