ABSTRACT:
A fold-away chair capable of being pivoted from a position of use to a fully collapsed position. The chair has a combined seat bottom and a rear leg assembly, a seat back assembly, a pair of front legs, a pair of arm rests, and a sliding pivot assembly to facilitate folding. The combined seat bottom and rear leg assembly comprises a pair of laterally spaced side rails having a transverse load-bearing member at the front ends. When the chair is in its position of use, this load-bearing member bears upon a transverse load-bearing member connecting the front legs. Pins connect the front legs to the forward ends of the side rails to lock the chair in its position of use. When these pins are removed, the chair may be folded to a collapsed position.
