Chair with cold protection hand pockets

Abstract

A chair with cold protection hand pockets includes a chair body having a seat, a backrest upward extended from a rear edge of the seat, and two armrests located above two lateral side of the seat; and a base located below the chair body to support the seat at a predetermined height from the ground. Two cold protection hand pockets are provided on front ends of the two armrests. Each of the cold protection hand pockets encloses a receiving space having an inlet opening, via which a user may extend one hand into the receiving space. When the chair is used outdoors, the user may rest two arms on the armrests with two hands extended through the inlet openings into the receiving spaces of the cold protection hand pockets to achieve the purpose of protecting hands against cold and wind while keeping hands warm.

         2 . The chair with cold protection hand pockets as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the cold protection hand pockets are turnable at the connection portions to selectively move the hand-cover portions between a vertically suspended and downward pointed position and a freely adjustable hand covering position. 
     
     
         3 . The chair with cold protection hand pockets as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the cold protection hand pockets are respectively formed of a first fabric sheet and a second fabric sheet, which are sewed together along part of their edges; the first fabric sheet having a first section, which is located corresponding to the second fabric sheet and cooperates with the latter to define the receiving space between them, and a second section, which is upward located beyond the second fabric sheet and forms the connection portion. 
     
     
         4 . The chair with cold protection hand pockets as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the seat, the backrest and the armrests of the chair body are made of a soft fabric material and the base is in the form of a collapsible frame; whereby the chair body can be selectively set into an extended state for the user to sit on simply by extending the collapsible frame of the base, or into a collapsed state for convenient storage by collapsing the collapsible frame of the base. 
     
     
         5 . The chair with cold protection hand pockets as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the base includes four sets of scissor linkages, which are correspondingly located at a front, a rear, a left and a right side of the base; and the four sets of scissor linkages being pivotally connected with one another by pivotally connecting their lower ends to four foot supports and their upper ends to four pivotal joints, so as to form the collapsible frame. 
     
     
         6 . The chair with cold protection hand pockets as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the collapsible frame further includes two back poles, which respectively have a lower section and an upper section; the lower sections of the back poles being downwardly extended through two rear ones of the four pivotal joints to connect to two rear ones of the foot supports. 
     
     
         7 . The chair with cold protection hand pockets as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the upper ends of the front one of the four scissor linkages are upward extended and then laterally outward bent to provide two armrest supports. 
     
     
         8 . The chair with cold protection hand pockets as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the chair body is formed of a third fabric sheet and a fourth fabric sheet upward extended from a rear side of the third fabric sheet; the third fabric sheet being located on the pivotal joints with two front corners of the third fabric sheet fitted on around the two upper ends of the front scissor linkage and two rear corners fitted on around the two back poles, such that the third fabric sheet forms the seat;
 and the fourth fabric sheet having two lateral sides fitted on around the upper sections of the back poles to thereby form the backrest.   
     
     
         9 . The chair with cold protection hand pockets as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the armrests are respectively formed of a fifth fabric sheet; and the fifth fabric sheets being connected at their front ends to the armrest supports of the collapsible frame with their rear ends fitted on around the back poles.
