ABSTRACT:
A stabilizer for a lawn chair, sand chair, chaise lounge, as well as other similar chairs, which, in a first embodiment, has an adapter that readily fits over the front and/or rear lower horizontal tubing of the chair-frame, which adapter is provided with right-angled end-corners directly and laterally adjacent the rounded, curved ends of the respective lower horizontal tubing, where such lower horizontal tubing curve upwardly in transition to join with an upwardly, angularly-extending upright tubing of the chair-frame, whereby such curved ends, about which lateral tipping over typically occurs, are negated. In a second embodiment, the stabilizer of the invention snap-fits onto a lower horizontal tubing of the chair-frame, with such stabilizer also having a length greater than the length of the lower horizontal tubing, the ends of which stabilizer are provided with generally triangular-shaped, flat projections. The stabilizer is readily rotatable about the lower horizontal tubing to which is attached, so that the end-projections may be oriented at any desired angle. Thus, the flat end-projections may be oriented so that they lie flat against the ground when the chair is used on firm ground or cement, or may be oriented 90 degrees therefrom so that the pointed apices or corners of each flat end-projection faces toward the ground, which is especially useful when using a chair on soft sand.
