Folding Chair and Method of Assembly

A folding chair comprises a front leg assembly having spaced inner rail members, a rear leg assembly, and a seat assembly. The rear leg assembly comprises spaced legs pivotally connected to the inner rail members about a first pivot axis, which is substantially coplanar with the longitudinal axes of the inner rail members. The seat assembly comprises spaced arms having distal ends pivotally connected to upper ends of the legs about a second pivot axis, and central portions pivotally connected to the inner rails about a third pivot axis substantially coplanar with the first pivot axis. The third pivot axis is moveable along the longitudinal axes of the inner rail members and toward and away from the first pivot axis as the chair is reconfigured between its deployed and folded orientations.
