FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to a seating device, more specifically to a seat which is lightweight, foldable and which is suitable for bringing along anywhere.

BACKGROUND

Today, camping chairs is a large market with many different types of chairs and designs. The trend in the development is that the camping chairs become smaller, lighter and put higher demands on package friendliness. Camping chairs and recliners usually come as “one size” and will not be ergonomically correct for most of the users. ‘Crazy Creek’ has since the 1980's sold a camping seat (without legs), which they have called ‘The Original Chair’ consisting of a seat, a seat back and a strap on each side that holds the seat back at a fixed angle. This is one of the most compact seat solutions on the market that does not depend on being hung up or supported in any way. We would like to offer a more adapted and ergonomically correct sitting position for those who use such compact seats. Due to the shape of the body, especially the lower back and buttocks, there is an angle between the back and the seat back so that in most cases the user of a camping seat will experience that the back rests against the upper part of the seat back. This will gnaw over time and reduce comfort. Especially a larger person will feel uncomfortable and the upper back and the corners will be able to “stick” into the back.

A camping seat as described solves this problem.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The invention describes a foldable camping seat which comprises a flexible seat with at least one bracing on each side extending in the entire longitudinal direction of the seat, a flexible seat back with at least one bracing on each side extending throughout the height of the seat back.

Furthermore, the camping seat comprises at least one flexible, but tension resistant connection between the seat and the seat back which is attached to the bracings on either side near the respective outer ends thereof. The inner end of the seat and the lower end of the seat back meet in a straight line forming a pivot axis between the seat and the seat back. The invention is characterized in that at least one elastic zone comprising an elastic material is mounted in the upper part of the seat back.
