Abstract

A collapsible chair has a frame and a cover attaching thereto. The frame has a left side stand and an identical right side stands, which linked by four pairs of scissoring linking bars. A hook frame and a pillar frame are provided pivotally linked to the frame. The pillar frame has side pillars securely formed thereon and the hook frame has hooks defined in an end thereof. The hooks and the pillars are able to engage when the collapsible chair is fully expanded, which makes the collapsible chair self-stable and much safer: a loose or broken soft cover or attachment thereof to the frame will not cause breakdown of the whole frame which may serious injure the user.
