[0038] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below clearly and completely with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are merely some, rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.Embodiment 1

[0039] As shown in FIG. 1, this embodiment provides a compact easy folding chair. The compact easy folding chair includes backrest 1 and chair frame 2.

[0040] In this embodiment, the backrest 1 includes backrest body 101. The backrest body 101 is divided into a seat area and a backrest area. An outer side of the backrest body 101 in the backrest area is provided with backrest support rod 102.

[0041] As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the backrest support rod 102 has a foldable structure. The backrest support rod 102 may be configured as a two-section folding support rod that can be automatically locked into a straightened state after being fully extended.

[0042] In this embodiment, the chair frame 2 includes two U-shaped armrest members 201. A chair frame folding structure capable of being folded and unfolded is provided between side rods of the two armrest members 201. A middle portion of the chair frame folding structure forms an open area to allow compact folding of a seat area fabric.

[0043] In this embodiment, two sides of the backrest body 101 in the seat area are connected to ribbons 103, respectively. The ribbon 103 is connected to an armrest rod in a middle portion of the armrest member 201 directly or indirectly.

[0044] In this embodiment, backrest connecting strip 104 is provided between a rear end of the ribbon 103 and a side portion, adjacent to the rear end of the ribbon 103, of the backrest area of the backrest body 101. Seat connecting strip 105 is provided between the rear end of the ribbon 103 and a rear end, adjacent to the rear end of the ribbon 103, of the seat area of the backrest body.

[0045] In this embodiment, two sides of the backrest body 101 in the seat area are respectively provided with seat fabric supports to prevent gathering of the seat area fabric.

[0046] In a practical application of this embodiment, the folding chair has a reasonable structural design, including the backrest 1 and the chair frame 2. The backrest body 101 of the backrest 1 is divided into the seat area and the backrest area. The outer side of the backrest body 101 in the backrest area is provided with the backrest support rod 102. The backrest support rod 102 has a foldable structure to reduce overall product volume after folding.Embodiment 2

[0047] This embodiment is improved based on Embodiment 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the outer side of the backrest body 101 in the backrest area is provided with anti-twist member 106 connected to a top end of the backrest support rod 102.

[0048] The anti-twist member 106 is mainly designed to prevent the backrest support rod 102 from rotating within a fabric during folding, thereby ensuring rapid folding. When there are two or more backrest support rods 102 provided, the anti-twist member 106 enables synchronous folding.Embodiment 3

[0049] This embodiment is improved based on Embodiment 1. As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, the chair frame folding structure includes two folding units. Each of the folding units includes first connecting rod 202, second connecting rod 203, and limiting connecting member 204. The first connecting rod 202 is hinged to a side rod of one armrest member 201 via a first pin shaft. The second connecting rod 203 is hinged to a side rod of the other armrest member 201 via a second pin shaft. The first connecting rod 202 and the second connecting rod 203 are hinged via the limiting connecting member 204 and a third pin shaft. The second connecting rods 203 located at a same side in the two folding units are hinged via a fourth pin shaft.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first connecting rod 202 and the second connecting rod 203 are each a straight rod or a U-shaped rod. In case they are U-shaped rods, a middle connecting rod of the U-shaped rod is located in an outer area away from the backrest, allowing the middle portion of the chair frame folding structure to form an open area for compact folding of the seat area fabric.

[0051] In this embodiment, the limiting connecting member 204 includes connecting member housing 204a. The connecting member housing 204a is provided with insertion slot 204b for mounting the second connecting rod 203 and limiting clamping slot 204c for mounting the first connecting rod 202. Two sides of the limiting clamping slot 204c are symmetrically provided with pin shaft positioning slots 204d cooperating with the third pin shaft.

[0052] The design of the open area at the middle portion of the chair frame folding structure allows sufficient folding space for the seat area fabric of the backrest 1, thereby achieving compact folding.Embodiment 4

[0053] This embodiment is improved based on Embodiment 1. An outer side of the armrest rod in the middle portion of the armrest member 201 is provided with armrest cover 205. The armrest cover 205 is wrapped on the outer side of the armrest rod through a hook-and-loop fastener or other means, improving comfort of armrest support and overall aesthetics. The armrest cover 205 can further be provided with carrying handle 206 for convenient carrying after product folding, as shown in FIG. 9.Embodiment 5

[0054] This embodiment is improved based on Embodiment 1. The folding chair further includes functional table plate 3. The functional table plate 3 is provided on the armrest member 201, and the functional table plate 3 has an adjustable inclination angle.

[0055] The functional table plate 3 is provided with a cup holder or other storage slots to meet placement requirements for various items.
