ABSTRACT:
A combined chair and backpack includes a conventional folding lawn chair type frame having an upper transverse frame member pivotally connected to an upper portion of a pack frame. In an open orientation of the chair, the pack frame and chair back frame form an A-frame configuration to enhance stability. A removable reversible head rest/top pack assembly includes tubular side frame members which telescopically receive upper mounting rod portions of the pack frame. In an open condition, the head rest faces the chair, and in a closed condition the head rest is reversed such that the top pack is disposed in overlying relation with respect to the collapsed chair. A plurality of straps suspend a pair of insulated beverage and food storage bags from respective opposite arm rests. Internal stiffeners maintain the bags erect. In a closed configuration, quick release straps secure edge portions of the bags in adjacent relation. An umbrella is mounted on an upper portion of the pack frame for independent compound pivotal adjustment about two perpendicular axes and useable in both closed transportation and open operative configurations of the chair. The combined chair and backpack includes a variety of attached comfort enhancing and sporting related features such as an insulated beverage holder, fishing creel, and fishing rod holder, all readily and immediately useable upon folding of the chair to an open configuration.
