Abstract

See full text

A self-covering outdoor furniture unit configured for human seating includes a seating surface and a backrest extending upwardly from the seating surface. Carried by the furniture unit is a substantially planar and rigid weather-protective panel. The panel is retained by guide members for linear displacement behind the backrest between a lowermost, storage position and an uppermost position, with the panel in a vertical orientation in which the panel is substantially perpendicular to the seating surface. When the panel is in the uppermost position, it can be pivoted forwardly into a deployed position in which it is disposed substantially horizontally over the seating surface, thereby shielding the seating surface from precipitation, blown debris, and sunlight.
