| 2002 | Invention patented by Hsi-Chin Huang on May 12th, 2002. Abstract: A beach chair with a sunshade in accordance with the present invention consists of a chair (10), a sunshade (20) and a securing device (30) mounted between the chair (10) and the sunshade (20). The securing device (30) comprises a toothed ring (31) mounted on the chair (10), a locking collar (32) rotatably mounted around the toothed ring (31), a locking block (33) rotatably secured inside the locking collar (32) and a ratchet wheel (34) holding the sunshade (20) and rotatably mounted on the locking collar (32). The sunshade (20) can be moved in two directions by operationally rotating the ratchet wheel (34) relative to the locking collar (32) and rotating the locking collar (32) round the toothed ring (31) to achieve an optimum inclination position for shading. Additionally, the sunshade (20) can be folded against the chair (10) so the beach chair can be easily carried. |
