Abstract A folding collapsible chair including a seat plate having a first longitudinal coupling groove and a second longitudinal coupling groove bilaterally disposed at a bottom side thereof, a plurality of vertical through holes, and two hand holes transversely disposed near two opposite ends; a folding stand adapted for supporting the seat plate, the folding stand including a first U-tube and a second U-tube pivoted together, and four retracting legs respectively mounted in two opposite ends of each of the first U-tube and the second U-tube, the first U-tube having a middle section peripherally forced into engagement with the first longitudinal coupling groove of the seat plate and turned therein, the second U-tube having a middle section adapted to be peripherally forced into engagement with the second longitudinal coupling groove of the seat plate; and a locating plate fixedly mounted on the bottom side of the seat plate over the middle section of the first U-tube to secure the seat plate and the first U-tube together.
A folding, collapsible chair comprising: a) a seat plate having a concavely curved seating surface and a planar bottom surface with a plurality of coupling grooves, integrally formed thereon the seat plate further having a plurality of through holes; b) a first generally U-shaped tube having a first base portion pivotally fastened to a first of the plurality of coupling grooves of the seat plate and a pair of first tubular leg portions; c) a second generally U-shaped tube having a second base portion releasably retained in a second of the plurality of coupling grooves of the seat plate and a pair of second tubular leg portions, each of the second tubular leg portions pivotally connected to one of the first tubular leg portions, whereby removal of the second base portion from the second coupling groove enables the chair to be folded and collapsed; and d) a stop block integrally formed and extending down wardly from the bottom surface and forming an outer side of the second coupling groove and adapted for stopping the base portion of the second U-tube at the second coupling groove.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
92 words
The folding collapsible chair according to claim 1, further comprising: a) a plurality of locating holes in each leg portion of said first and second U-shaped tubes; b) an adjustable leg member telescopically received in each leg portion, each adjustable leg member having a side through hole and a spring biased retainer rod protruding outwardly from said side through hole and located so as to engage one of the plurality of locating holes in the associated leg portion so as to adjustably locate the leg member relative to the associated leg portion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
42 words
The folding collapsible chair according to claim 1, wherein each adjustable leg member comprises a distal end portion extending at an oblique angle to a portion of the leg member telescopically received in tube leg portion of the generally shaped U-shaped tubes.
