Description

  The present invention relates to a child chair that can be folded.

In Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 54-148548, the upper parts of a pair of left and right front legs and a rear leg are crossed and pivoted, and a seat plate is disposed between the front legs and the rear legs, and the rear end is used as the left and right rear legs. The front end is supported on a support plate that connects the left and right front legs, and the left and right sides of the seat plate and the middle part of the front legs are connected by a pair of left and right connecting links. The back end of the support frame that holds the left and right sides of the table is pivotally mounted back and forth using the pivots of the rear and front legs, and the top plate is held horizontally during use. As described above, a child chair in which an intermediate portion of a support frame is supported on a support member provided on a front leg is disclosed.

In actual No. 3036986, the upper part of a pair of left and right front legs and rear legs are crossed and pivoted, a seat plate is disposed between the front legs and rear legs, and the rear end is pivotally attached to the left and right rear legs. At the same time, the front end is supported on a support plate to which the left and right front legs are connected, and the left and right sides of the seat plate and the middle part of the front leg are connected by a pair of left and right connection links, and the back between the left and right front legs extending upward is rearward. The left and right support frames, which are connected by twisting and holding the table, are pivotally attached to the left and right rear legs, and the middle part of the support frame is positioned at the upper ends of the front legs so that the top plate is held horizontally during use. A children's chair placed on is disclosed.

  In the above-mentioned conventional child chair, after rotating the support frame of the table to the rear side, the front leg and the rear leg are moved by rotating the front end of the seat plate upward while lifting the backrest. Closed and folded, and in this folded state, the front and rear legs are unfolded by rotating the front end of the seat plate downward while lifting the backrest, and then the table support frame is rotated forward. It is intended to be used.

  In this way, the above-mentioned children's chair must be folded or unfolded and put into use by rotating the seat plate with the other hand while supporting the backrest with one hand. It was extremely inconvenient for nursery schools that deal with children. Further, when operating the seat plate, there is a risk that fingers may be caught between the connecting link and the seat plate, or between the connecting link and the front leg.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a folding chair for children that can be easily folded and unfolded.

  According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a folding chair for a child, wherein an upward bent portion provided at the upper ends of a pair of left and right rear legs is pivotally attached to the outside of a rearward bent portion provided at the upper ends of a pair of left and right front legs. A pair of front legs' rear bent parts are connected by backrest, and the left and right ends of the support frame with the front table attached to the upper ends of the upper bent parts of the left and right rear legs projecting upward from the rear bent parts. And a base portion of the support frame is held by a horizontal holding portion formed on the rearward bent portion, and a rear end of a seat plate disposed between a pair of left and right front legs and rear legs is provided. Connected to the connecting rod connecting the left and right rear legs, holding the front end on the connecting rod connecting the left and right front legs, and protruding from the front legs in the longitudinal grooves formed on the left and right sides of the seat plate Fit the pin slidably It is characterized in that the.

  The folding chair for a child of claim 1 according to the present invention is such that the front leg and the rear leg are opened, and the table and the seat plate are horizontally opened. When lifted with one hand, the front legs and rear legs rotate inward about the pivot axis, and the seat plate is folded with the upper surface facing forward, and the support frame is also pivoted on the rear bent part. It turns to the inside as a center, and the whole is in a folded state. In this folded state, when the seat plate is pulled forward while the end of the table supported by the support frame is in contact with the floor surface, the front and rear legs open, and the seat plate expands horizontally. Therefore, when the support frame of the table is rotated to the front side, the base portion of the support frame is supported by the horizontal holding portion formed on the rear bent portion of the front leg, and the table is used in a state of being held horizontally.

  Since the folding chair for children of claim 1 according to the present invention can be easily converted from the use state to the folded state and from the folded state to the use state by lifting the backrest with one hand as described above, many It is very convenient in a nursery school that handles chairs.

  In addition, since the base of the support frame that is pivotally attached to the upward bent part of the rear leg is supported by the horizontal holding part that is long in the front and rear, even if a large load is accidentally applied to the front of the table, The shaft attachment is not damaged.

  Furthermore, the rear end of the seat plate is hinged to the connecting rod connecting the left and right rear legs, and the front end is held on the connecting rod connecting the left and right front legs, and in the longitudinal groove formed on the left and right sides of the seat plate. By projecting from the front leg and inserting the connecting pin in a slidable manner, the conventional connecting link is omitted, so that there is no risk of fingers being caught during handling.

It is a perspective view of the unfolded state in the actual form of the folding chair for children which concerns on this invention. It is a perspective view of the folded state in the same embodiment. It is a front view of the expansion | deployment state in embodiment same as the above. It is a side view of the expansion | deployment state in embodiment same as the above. It is AA sectional drawing shown in FIG. It is explanatory drawing which shows the folding order of embodiment same as the above.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the folding chair for children of claims 1 and 2 according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.
