Description

A PORTABLE R CHAIR This invention relates to a Portable chair.

especially a Portable chair which can be assembled or disassembled quickly, the top and the lower part of each chair leg having respectively a first taper post and a second taper post. the first taper posts of these chair legs can be inserted into the taper holes on bottom of the chair pad. therefore the chair legs can be connected firmly with the chair pad, furthermore a laid case being installed on the lower parts of the chair legs by means of inserting the second taper posts of the chair legs into the fixing taper holes which situated at the four corners of the laid case, inside the laid case having a plurality of divided spaces in which various tools or stationery can be stored.

The chair is used widely in general living.

we always need a chair to sit or take a rest. But the conventional chair have some existing deficiencies described as followings: (1) The conventional chair can't be disassembled and have a sarge volume.

It is very inconvenient for anybody to carry a conventional chair. (2) The conventional chair only can be used for sitting. There is not anu other purpose, such as for putting tools or stationery.

It is therefore the main object of this invention to provide a portable chair, especially a portable chair which can be assembled or disassembled quickly. the top and the lower part of each chair leg having respectively a first taper post and a second tape pOSt, the first taper posts of the chair legs can be inserted into the taper holes on bottom of the chair pad,therefore the chair legs can be connected firmly with the chair pad.further- more a laid case can be installed on the lower parts of the chair legs by means of inserting the second taper posts of the chair legs into the fixing taper holes which situated at the four corners of the laid case, inside the laid case having a plurality of divided spaces in which various tools or stationery can be stored.

In the drawings. which illustrate the preferred embodiments and modes of operation of the invention, and in which like reference characters designate the same or similar parts throughout the several views: Fig.1 is an exploded view showing a portable chair of the present invention; Fig.2 is a perspective view of this invention; Fig.3 is a sectional view showing the connection method of chair legs and chair pad of this invention; Fig.4 is a perspective view showing the assembly process of this invention; Fig.5 is a perspective view showing a laid case of this invention; Fig.6 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the laid case of this invention; Fig.7 is a perspective view showing another embodiment of this invention;; Fig.8 is a perspective view showing still another embodiment of this invention together with a chair back; and Fig.9 is an exPloded view showing the still another embodiment in Fig.8.

Referring to Fig.1. Fig.2. Fig.3 and Fig.4, the present invention, a portable chair. is composed of a chair pad (1), four chair legs and a laid case (3). wherein the bottom of the chair Pad (1) having four fixing mounts (11). each fixing mount (11) having respectively a locating plate (12) and a taper hole (13). the inner side wall of each taper hole (13) having two grooves (131). the top of each chair leg (2) have a fitting aperture (21) and a first taper post (22) . on the outer circumference of each first taper post (22) having two first convex strips (221), the four chair legs (2) can be connected with the chair pad (1) by insert ing the taper posts (22) of four chair legs into the taper holes (13) of four fixing mounts (11) of the chair pad (1).meanwhile the first convex strips (221) on the first taper posts (22) would slide into the grooves (131) on the taper holes (13).

furthermore the locating plates (12) of the four fixing mounts (11) being fitted with the fitting apertures (21) of the four chair legs (2).

The lower part of each chair leg (2) have respectively a second taper post (23). each second taper post (23) having two second convex strips (23 1). The laid case (3) have four fixing taper holes (31) formed at its four corners. on the inner wall of each fixing taper hole (31) having two fixing grooves (311), the laid case (3) can be installed on the lower parts of the four chair legs (2).

therefore the second taper posts (23) can be Pushed into the fixing taper holes (31) of the laid case ( 3), meanwhile the two second convex strips (231) on each second taper post (23) would slide into the two fixing grooves (311) on each fixing taper hole (31).

Referring to Fig.5 and Fig.6. inside the laid case (3) having a plurality of divided spaces (32) in which various tools (4) or stationery (5) can be stored, such as nails, hammer, pencils or scissors etc. Two sides of the laid case (3) have respectively a side plate (33) on which have a plurality of inserting holes (331). therefore the screw drivers or spanners can be put in the inserting holes (331).

Fig.7 shows another embodiment of this invent ion, a second laid case (7) can be installed above the laid case (3). therefore the space under the chair Pad (1) can be used completely. Referring to Fig.8 and Fig.. the still another embodiment of this invention, two U-shape rods (63) (64) can be connected with the upper part of the two rear chair legs (2) by means of a plurality of screw bolts (65 ) and nuts (66). the two U-shape rods (63) (64) can be inserted into two fixing tubes (61) (62) of a chair back (6). therefore the chair back (6) can be connected with the portable chair.
