ABSTRACT:
A folding chair comprises lower and upper frame sections formed generally as U-shaped members, each having a pair of legs and a central portion between the pair of legs. The ends of the central section are connected to the legs by a pair of curved frame portions curved in planes such that the central frame portions have longitudinal axes displaced away from the legs. The frame sections are preferably formed to be generally identical except that the legs of one frame section may be longer than the legs of the other. The ends of the frame sections are connected together by hinges. A flexible material formed generally as a sling is mounted to the central portions of the upper and lower frame sections to support the weight of a person sitting in the chair. The frame and the hinges the legs cooperate to retain the angle between the upper and lower frame sections at an value determined by the position of the user in the chair. The pivotal connections between the legs includes means for preventing the ends of the legs from extending to the floor. The folding chair may include a pair of pouches behind the seat covering for storing small articles and for storing the covering when the chair is not in use.
