Abstract
An improved, combination carrying case and folding seat (10) that allows various items to be carried and upon arriving at an outdoor activity, the case can be converted to a seat that includes a backrest. The combination (10) consists of an elongated bottom enclosure (12), a first and second articulated section (14) and a pair of caps (16). The enclosure (12) has on its lower, outer surface a plurality of transverse ribs (12R,12S) that have a horizontal surface which allows the combination (10) to be maintained in an upright position. The enclosure (12), also includes a first side member (12F) and a second side member (12K) that have a first-disk protrusion bore (12G) and a second disk protrusion bore (12M) respectively as well as a seat/backrest stop rod (12T) longitudinally located across its inner surface (12D). Each of the articulated sections (14) have a first circular disk structure (14G) that includes a rod bore (14I) and a seat/backrest stop protrusion ( 14J, 14K) and a second circular disk structure (14M) that includes a threaded rod (14P). The disk structures (14G, 14M) are rotatably inserted into the first and second disk protrusion bores (12G,12M) respectively and are held in place by the pair of caps (16).
