The present disclosure relates to a technical field of furniture, and in particular to a bamboo seat and a bamboo stool.
Among sitting furniture, a folding stool appeared first, and the folding stool is a predecessor of a stool. The stool with a backrest has evolved into a chair. Foot stool or horse stool is a folk name of the stool, since the stool is originally used to step on a horse or a sedan chair. Further, the stool is also known as “martial stool”, because martial art practitioners sit like a bell and do not need the backrest to lean on.
The stool is made of simple materials and has a wide range of uses, so it has been passed down in greater numbers than the chair. A shape of the stool is very rich. Until the Ming Dynasty, the shape of the stool is basically rectangular. By the Qing Dynasty, the stool became square, and there are also round, fan-shaped, plum-shaped, hexagonal, and other forms of stools.
Bamboo stool is one of the most common sitting furniture, which mainly consists of two support frames, two horizontal rods, and a seat. The two support frames are spaced apart from each other, and the two horizontal rods are arranged from front to rear and each of which is fixedly connected between the two support frames.
The seat comprises two side frames and a bamboo panel connecting the two side frames. The side frames are respectively fixed to top ends of the two support frames. The bamboo panel and the side frames of the seat of the bamboo stool are fixed through mortises and glue, which is not environmentally friendly. Moreover, a portion of the seat of the bamboo stool for sitting is the panel, which is hard, not comfortable enough and breathable enough. In addition, two ends of the bamboo panel of the bamboo stool are exposed outside the side frames after installation, which is easy to bump into when users use it and is not beautiful enough. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the bamboo stool in the prior art.

A fixing bolt (not shown in the drawings) passes through a corresponding fixing hole 101 to fixedly connect to one end of a corresponding horizontal rod 20, making connection thereof stable and reliable. Further, the two horizontal rods are square wooden bars, which are stable and reliable in structure.
The bamboo seat 30 comprises two side frames 31 and bamboo piece components 32. The side frames 31 are spaced apart and are arranged from left to right. Each of the side frames 31 extends from front to rear.
Mortises 301 are defined on an inner side surface of each of the side frames 31. The mortises 301 defined on each of the side frames are arranged at intervals from front to rear. The bamboo piece components 32 are arranged at intervals from front to rear. A gap 302 is formed between every two adjacent bamboo piece components 32, which improves breathability during use. Two ends of each of the bamboo piece components 32 are respectively inserted into corresponding mortises 301 on the two side frames 31 to be tightly matched and fixed to the side frames 31. Each of the bamboo piece components 32 is formed by stacking at least three bamboo pieces 321. The bamboo seat is installed by hand, eliminating use of glue by a conventional fixing method, effectively reducing carbon emissions and is environmental friendly. Further, the bamboo piece components 32 are installed in the side frames 31, so two ends of each of the bamboo piece components 32 are not exposed, making two sides of the bamboo seat smooth and beautiful. Each of the side frames 31 is arranged on a top end of a corresponding support frame 10 of the support frames 10. Specifically, a top end of each of the front support legs 11 is fixedly connected to a front end of a corresponding side frame 31. A top end of each of the rear support legs is fixedly connected to a rear end of a corresponding side frame 31.
In the embodiment, the side frames 31 are made of wood. Each of the side frames 31 is a first arc structure with an upward arch in a middle portion of the first arc structure. The mortises 301 defined on each of the side frames 31 are arranged along an arc of the first arc structure thereof. The mortises 301 are evenly spaced. The mortises 301 are square holes. The front end and the rear end of each of the side frames 31 are arc-shaped and convex. The front end and the rear end of each of the side frames 31 extend downward to from two projections 311. Bottom surfaces of the two projections 311 of each of the side frames 31 are respectively fixedly assembled with a top surface of a corresponding front support leg 11 and a top surface of a corresponding rear support leg 12.
Each of the bamboo piece components 32 is a second arc-shaped structure with an upward arch in a middle portion of the second arc-shaped structure. Since the bamboo piece components 32 are arc-shaped, the bamboo piece components 32 are blocked by the mortises 301 when stressed, preventing the bamboo piece components 32 from moving downwards to fall off the mortises 301. Every two adjacent bamboo piece components 32 are arranged parallel to each other. Further, there are eleven bamboo piece components 32. Of course, the number of the bamboo piece components is not limited thereto.
A width of each gap is less than a width of each of the bamboo piece components 32 and is greater than half of the width of each of the bamboo piece components 32. The bamboo pieces are Phyllostachys pubescens pieces. The bamboo piece component fully and reasonably applies characteristics of the Phyllostachys pubescens. Bamboo fiber of the Phyllostachys pubescens has elasticity, which not only ensures the bearing capacity of the bamboo seat, but also make a surface of the human body contacting the bamboo seat comfortable.
When assembly, at least three bamboo pieces 321 are stacked together to form one bamboo piece component 32, and then rest bamboo piece components 32 are prepared similarly. Then, the two ends of each of the bamboo piece components 32 are respectively inserted into corresponding mortises 301 on the two sides frame 31, so as to assemble the bamboo seat 30. The two support frames 10 are assembled and prepared, and then the two horizontal rods 20 each connects the two support frames 10. Finally, each of the side frames 31 of the bamboo seat 30 are fixed on the top end of the corresponding support frames 10.
In the present disclosure, the bamboo seat comprises the bamboo piece components. At least three bamboo pieces are stacked in sequence to from one bamboo piece component of the bamboo piece components. The bamboo piece components are fixed directly through the mortises and no glue is needed. A production process of the bamboo seat is environmentally friendly, and the bamboo seat is flexible and is able to support great weight. Each gap is form between very two adjacent bamboo piece components, which improves the breathability of the bamboo seat when using and provide good comfort. In addition, two ends of each of the bamboo piece components are installed in the side frames and are not exposed, making two sides of the bamboo seat smooth and beautiful.
