Each supporting portions includes a first support, a second support, a stand member, a first rocking member, a second rocking member, a first foot member and a second foot member. The stand member, the first rocking member and the second rocking member are all rotatably connected with the first support. The first foot member is rotatably connected with the first rocking member. The second foot member is rotatably connected with the second rocking member. The first foot member and the second foot member are rotatably connected with the second support. The second foot member is rotatably connected with the stand member and is slidable along the stand member. A seat member is rotatably connected with the stand member and the first foot member and is telescopically moveable.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A rocking chair comprising:
two supporting portions ( 1 ) operatively connected with each other, the two supporting portions being adapted and configured to move between an unfolded position and a folded position of the rocking chair, each of the two supporting portions ( 1 ) comprising:

a first rocking member ( 113 ) and a second rocking member ( 114 ), the first rocking member ( 113 ) and the second rocking member ( 114 ) being rotatably connected with the first support ( 11 ), the first rocking member ( 113 ) and the second rocking member ( 114 ) being disposed on opposite sides of the stand member ( 111 );
a first foot member ( 122 ) operatively and rotatably connected with the first rocking member ( 113 );
a second foot member ( 123 ) operatively and rotatably connected with the second rocking member ( 114 ), the second foot member ( 123 ) being operatively and rotatably connected with the stand member ( 111 ) and is slidable along the stand member ( 111 );
a second support ( 12 ) arranged above the first support ( 1 ), the second support ( 12 ) being operatively and rotatably connected with the first foot member ( 122 ) and the second foot member ( 123 ); and
a seat member ( 13 ) operatively and rotatably connected with the stand member ( 111 ) and the first foot member ( 122 ), the seat member ( 13 ) being adapted and configured for telescopic movement in an axial direction.

2. The rocking chair according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a first cross member ( 121 ) extending between the two supporting portions ( 1 ), the first cross member ( 121 ) being operatively and rotatably connected with the second support ( 12 ) of one of the two supporting portions ( 1 ) and the first support ( 11 ) of the other of the two supporting portions ( 1 );
a second cross member ( 112 ) extending between the two supporting portions ( 1 ), the second cross member ( 112 ) being operatively and rotatably connected with the first support ( 11 ) of the one of the two supporting portions and the second support ( 12 ) of the other of the two supporting portions;
wherein the first cross member ( 121 ) is operatively rotatably connected with the second cross member ( 112 ).

3. The rocking chair according to claim 2 , wherein the seat member ( 13 ) comprises a seat member body ( 131 ) and a telescopic member ( 132 ) arranged coaxially with the seat member body ( 131 ), the telescopic member ( 132 ) being adapted and configured for telescopic movement in an axial direction of the seat member ( 13 ) in a manner such that when the two supporting portions ( 1 ) are unfolded, the telescopic member ( 132 ) contracts, and when the two supporting portions ( 1 ) are folded, the telescopic member ( 132 ) extends.

4. The rocking chair according to claim 3 , wherein the telescopic member ( 132 ) is rotatably connected with the seat member ( 13 ) by a first rivet.

5. The rocking chair according to claim 4 , wherein each of the supporting portions ( 1 ) further comprises a U-shaped connecting member ( 15 ) which is rotatably connected with the first foot member ( 122 ) and configured to limit a position of the seat member body ( 131 ).

6. The rocking chair according to claim 5 , wherein, the U-shaped connecting member ( 15 ) is rotatably connected with the first foot member ( 122 ) by a second rivet, the second rivet passes through the U-shaped connecting member ( 15 ) and the seat member body ( 131 ) and is connected with the first foot member ( 122 ).

7. The rocking chair according to claim 1 , wherein each of the supporting portions ( 1 ) further comprises a sliding member ( 14 ), the sliding member ( 14 ) is rotatably connected with the second foot member ( 123 ) and configured to slide along the stand member ( 111 ).

8. The rocking chair according to claim 7 , wherein the stand member ( 111 ) of at least one of the two supporting portions ( 1 ) is provided with a position-limiting hole.

9. The rocking chair according to claim 8 wherein the sliding member ( 14 ) comprises a position-limiting button ( 16 ) configured to engage the position-limiting hole when the supporting portion ( 1 ) is unfolded.

10. The rocking chair according to claim 9 , wherein the position-limiting button ( 16 ) comprises a pin urged with a spring to engage the position-limiting hole.
