This application claims the priority benefit of China application serial no. 202321653029.0, filed on Jun. 28, 2023. The entirety of the above-mentioned patent application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.
The present invention relates to the technical field of deck chairs, and more particularly to a deck chair with a support foot and a linked folding and unfolding mechanism. Description of Related Art
Existing deck chairs have various varieties, are mostly used indoor, and have the main advantages of greatly saving occupancy space and facilitating storage. The existing deck chair mainly consists of a bracket, a face frame, and fabric. After being unfolded, the deck chair can be used for a user to rest, both for sitting and lying down. Although the existing deck chair can provide a large lie-low size, the existing deck chair still cannot achieve the lie-low effect. Therefore, the patent No. CN215076900U discloses a foldable flat deck chair, including a chair face frame, chair legs, and a chair back, wherein the chair face frame is hinged to the chair back, and is connected to the chair legs; a hinge block 1 is connected between the chair face frame and the chair back; and a middle part of the hinge block 1 is connected to a fixing apparatus for fixing the chair face frame and the chair back.
The above product is an early product of the applicant. With the wide application of the product on the market, a large number of user feedbacks are obtained at present, and the core technical defect is that when a user needs to lie low, the user would be easy to directly lie low without unfolding a support frame, and is therefore easy to flip back, thus having a certain potential safety hazard.
In order to solve the above problem, the present invention provides a deck chair with a support foot and a linked folding and unfolding mechanism, which may implement automatic floor support and improve use convenience and safety.

In order to easily understand the technical means, creative features, objectives, and effects achieved by the present invention, the present invention will be further described below with reference to specific drawings.
As shown in
In a specific structure, a support foot 700 is disposed in back of the back rest portion 100; the support foot 700 is used to support the back rest portion 100; when the deck chair is in the lie-low state, the back rest portion 100 implements floor support by means of the support foot 700, such that the user can more steadily lie low for rest. The support foot 700 cooperates with the linked folding and unfolding mechanism 500; the linked folding and unfolding mechanism 500 is used to automatically unfold and support the support foot 700, so as to avoid the potential safety hazard because the support foot cannot support in position when the deck chair is in the lie-low state.
The linked folding and unfolding mechanism 500 includes a folding and unfolding rod 510 and a linkage rod 520; one end of the folding and unfolding rod 510 is cooperatively hinged to the support foot 700; an upper portion of the support foot 700 is cooperatively hinged to the back rest portion 100; a hinge position of the folding and unfolding rod 510 and the support foot 700 is lower than a horizontal plane in which a hinge position of the support foot 700 and the back rest portion 100 is located; the other end of the folding and unfolding rod 510 is cooperatively hinged to one end of the linkage rod 520; the other end of the linkage rod 520 is fixedly mounted at the chair seat portion 200; when the back rest portion 100 changes from a vertical state to a lie-low state, the support foot 700 is supported by the folding and unfolding rod 510, and an angle between the support foot 700 and the back rest portion 100 gradually increases; when a bottom of the support foot 700 is in contact with the ground, an open angle between the support foot 700 and the back rest portion 100 is maximum; when the back rest portion 100 changes from the lie-low state to the vertical state, the support foot 700 is pulled by the folding and unfolding rod 510, and the angle between the support foot 700 and the back rest portion 100 gradually decreases. In the above structure, the back rest portion 100 can turn over, such that the folding and unfolding rod 510 moves with the back rest portion 100; under the limit of the hinge position of the linkage rod 520, the other end of the folding and unfolding rod 510 persistently limits the position of the support foot 700; the two ends of the support foot 700 are limited by the hinge positions, namely the hinge position of the support foot 700 and the back rest portion 100 and the hinge position of the support foot 700 and the folding and unfolding rod 510; with the lie-low of the back rest portion 100, the folding and unfolding rod 510 also synchronously lies low; under the synchronous limit of the two hinge positions, the support foot 700 persistently rotates, until in contact with the ground, so as to automatically unfold and support the support foot 700.
The folding and unfolding rod 510 includes a straight folding and unfolding rod portion 511 and a bending folding and unfolding rod portion 512; one end of the straight folding and unfolding rod portion 511 is cooperatively hinged to the support foot 700; and one end of the bending folding and unfolding rod portion 512 is cooperatively hinged to the linkage rod 520. The design of the bending folding and unfolding rod portion 512 is optimized; by using a bending pipe structure, a good transmission transition can be implemented, thus achieving a good linked support effect, and facilitating the automatic folding and unfolding of the support foot 700.
According to the above descriptions, the support foot 700 includes support foot bodies 701 located on two sides; a hinge base 710 is disposed at an upper end of the support foot body 701; the hinge base 710 is cooperatively hinged to the back rest portion 100 by means of a first hinge shaft 720; and one end of the straight folding and unfolding rod portion 511 is cooperatively hinged to the support foot body 701 by means of a second hinge shaft 530.

According to the above descriptions, a hinge pedestal 800 is disposed between the back rest portion 100 and the chair seat portion 200; a limit shaft 810 is disposed on the hinge pedestal 800; the limit shaft 810 extends outwards, and cooperatively presses against a wall of a back leg pipe 440; the deck chair further includes a chair leg portion 400; the chair leg portion 400 includes front leg pipes 430, back leg pipes 440, and handrail pipes 410; upper ends of the front leg pipes 430 and upper ends of the back leg pipes 440 are cooperatively mounted by means of hinged mounting bases 420; an upper portion of the hinged mounting base 420 is cooperatively mounted at the handrail pipe 410; and a back end of the handrail pipe 410 is cooperatively hinged to the back rest portion 100. The hinge pedestal 800 is optimized, such that the back rest portion 100 is movably hinged to the chair seat portion 200; furthermore, the limit shaft 810 is preferably provided; the limit shaft 810 and the back leg pipe 440 press against each other, so as to improve the stability of the deck chair.
Preferably, a support mechanism 600 is disposed between the footstool portion 300 and the back rest portion 100; when the back rest portion 100 moves backwards and gradually lies low, the support mechanism 600 supports the footstool portion 300 to deflect outwards and upwards; the support mechanism 600 includes a support rod 610 and a connecting rod 620; one end of the support rod 610 is cooperatively hinged to the footstool portion 300, and the other end is cooperatively hinged to one end of the connecting rod 620; the other end of the connecting rod 620 is fixedly mounted at the back rest portion 100; The support mechanism 600 is optimized, such that the footstool portion 300 can be synchronously linked with the back rest portion 100 under the action of the support rod 610, thus facilitating the lie-low of the deck chair.
The present invention optimizes the design, adopts the linked folding and unfolding mechanism, and may implement automatic floor support, thus improving use convenience and safety; and the present invention optimizes the support mechanism, such that the footstool portion is linked with the back rest portion, thus facilitating the lie-low use of a user at leisure.
