About Pad Kiti Kinachokunjika

Pad ni kiti kinachokunjika kilichobuniwa kuokoa nafasi. Kiti hukunjika na kuwa paneli bapa yenye urefu wa sentimita 41, upana wa sentimita 4, na kimo cha sentimita 86. Paneli kadhaa zilizokunjwa zinaweza kupangwa juu ya nyingine na kuhifadhiwa pamoja. Ili kufungua kiti, boriti ya chini huvutwa chini ili kiti cha kukalia na miguu vitoke nje. Kiti cha kukalia kisha huinuliwa juu kwa digrii 90, na miguu hukunjwa chini kwa digrii 90. Pad hutengenezwa kwa mbao za mtiki, aina ya mbao ambayo ni imara, sugu kwa uchakavu, na iliyolindwa dhidi ya kuoza na wadudu. Umbo lake bapa linafaa kwa nyumbani na maeneo ya umma.

Folding chair is a product that can be seen everywhere in our life and will bring great aspects to our life. Folding chairs are usually used at home to entertain guests or to sit on their own. Easy to fold and save space. According to research, furniture design output value had reached 210 billion euros in 2002, its development prospect is very broad.
Inspiration
The shape of the tablet inspired us to come up with this project. The size of the tablet is very space-saving and easy to store. Folding chairs are also in demand in large public places. We wanted to design a chair with the same function. So, we made the folding chair a flat panel. Usually, it's a chair. It can be folded into a flat sheet when needed.
Project Duration
The project started in September 2020 in Milan and finished in February 2021 in that place, and was exhibited in China in February 2021.
Operation Flow
Start with a tablet. First, grab the bottom beam of the tablet and pull it down. The seat and legs of the chair will snap out. Second, pull the seat and legs to the bottom and fold them up by 90 degrees to form the seat. Finally, fold the legs down 90 degrees to form a chair.
