[0020] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate positions or locations based on those shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are intended solely to facilitate and simplify the description of the present invention and are not intended to indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not intended to indicate or imply relative importance.

[0022] As shown in Figures 1-4, the present invention provides a deflectable folding bracket 100, including a horizontal rod 10 and two bases 20 respectively arranged at both ends of the horizontal rod 10, each base 20 includes a first shell 21 and a second shell 22 nested with the first shell 21, and also includes a plurality of legs 23 connected to the first shell 21 and a plurality of arms 24 connected to the second shell 22.

[0023] In this embodiment, the first housing 21 is partially housed within the second housing 22, and the second housing 22 has a horizontal rod interface 220 for connecting to the horizontal rod 10. It is understood that in other embodiments, the second housing 22 may be partially housed within the first housing 21, and the first housing 21 may have a horizontal rod interface for connecting to the horizontal rod 10. The first housing 21 has a deflection axis 25, and the second housing 22 can pivot relative to the first housing 21 about the deflection axis 25. Specifically, the first housing 21 has a hollow tube 211, the central axis of the hollow tube 211 being the deflection axis 25, and the second housing 22 has a column 221 extending through the hollow tube 211, and the column 221 can rotate within the hollow tube 211. It is understood that in other embodiments, the second housing 22 may be provided with a hollow tube, and the first housing 21 may be provided with a column extending through the hollow tube of the second housing 22, as long as the second housing 22 can pivot about the deflection axis 25.

[0024] An elastic member 26 is disposed between the first and second housings 21, 22. In this embodiment, the deflection axis 25 is disposed at one end of the first housing 21, and the elastic member 26 is disposed at the end of the first housing 21 away from the deflection axis 25. When the elastic member 26 is compressed, the column 221 rotates within the hollow tube 211, causing the second housing 22 to pivot relative to the first housing 21, thereby deflecting the folding stand 100. Because the second housing 22 can pivot relative to the first housing 21 and the elastic member 26 is disposed between the first and second housings 21, the folding stand 100 can deflect during use without tipping over. This allows the folding stand 100 to function as a portable rocking chair or hammock, enhancing the comfort of using portable furniture.

[0025] Preferably, the end of each leg 23 connected to the first housing 21 is provided with a leg tooth portion 231, and the leg tooth portions 231 of adjacent legs 23 mesh with each other, so that when one leg 23 rotates relative to the base 20, the adjacent legs 23 can be driven to rotate simultaneously; the end of each arm 24 connected to the second housing 22 is provided with an arm tooth portion 241, and the arm tooth portions 241 of adjacent arms 24 mesh with each other, so that when one arm 24 rotates relative to the base 20, the adjacent arms 24 can be driven to rotate simultaneously, thereby simplifying the steps of unfolding or folding the folding bracket 100. It will be understood that in other embodiments, the legs or arms can be pivotally connected to the base in a non-linked manner, or the legs or arms can be detachably connected to the base. When it is necessary to fold the deflectable folding bracket provided by the present invention, the legs and arms can be removed from the base.

[0026] In this embodiment, the support arm 24 includes a front support arm 243 and a rear support arm 244. The rear support arm 244 is longer than the front support arm 243. The deflection axis 25 is located near the front support arm 243, and the elastic member 26 is located near the rear support arm 244. The elastic member 26 is a spring. A first limiting post 212 protruding toward the second housing 22 is provided at the location where the elastic member 26 is connected to the first housing 21. A second limiting post 222 protruding toward the first housing 21 is provided at the location where the elastic member 26 is connected to the second housing 22. When the elastic member 26 is compressed, the first limiting post 212 and the second limiting post 222 abut against each other to limit the deflection angle of the second housing 22 relative to the first housing 21. Thus, when the folding stand 100 is used as a rocking chair, the user can lean back without worrying about falling. Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0027] In another embodiment, as shown in Figure 5, the deflection axis 35 is disposed within the first housing 31. The elastic member includes a first spring 361 and a second spring 362, respectively disposed on either side of the deflection axis. The second housing 32 can deflect toward either the first spring 361 or the second spring 362. Specifically, the length of the first spring 361 is less than the length of the second spring 362. In other words, the angle at which the second housing 32 deflects toward the first spring 361 is less than the angle at which the second housing 32 deflects toward the second spring 362. This allows the user to rock the folding stand forward or backward when using the portable furniture, making the use of the portable furniture more enjoyable.

[0028] The deflectable folding stand provided by the present invention comprises a horizontal rod and two bases disposed at either end of the horizontal rod. Each base comprises a first housing and a second housing nested within the first housing. The first housing has a deflection axis, and the second housing is pivotable relative to the first housing about the deflection axis. An elastic member is disposed between the first and second housings. The base further comprises a plurality of legs connected to the first housing and a plurality of arms connected to the second housing. Because the second housing can pivot relative to the first housing and the elastic member is disposed between the first and second housings, the folding stand provided by the present invention can deflect during use without tipping over.

[0029] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
