A locking pivot connector for a cot-chair back rest and a swivel joint for a sun shade supported by the back rest are disclosed. The locking pivot connector permits longitudinal placement of the back rest on the cot-chair with selective angular adjustment of the back rest on the cot-chair to allow its use as a cot, chair or chaise lounge. The sun shade swivel connection permits almost 360.degree. angular rotation of the sun shade by a spring-loaded ratchet assembly.

[ I claim:] [1.] A locking pivot connector for a cot-chair having a pair of cot side rails and a back rest having back rest side rails, for pivotally connecting each back rest side rail to a respective cot side rail comprising a U-shaped bracket having a pair of opposed side walls joined by a web and adapted for slidable travel on a cot side rail, a key formed longitudinally on an exterior surface of each side wall, a cast metal fitting having a side recess with opposed keyways for receiving the side wall keys therein whereby the fitting can be assembled on the bracket to straddle one of the cot side rails for slidable travel thereon with the bracket, detent means for engaging said one of the cot side rails to lock the fitting on said one of the cot side rails, a pair of spaced-apart semi-circular lobes extending upwardly from the fitting defining a recess for receiving an end of one of the back rest side rails therein, said end of said one of the back rest side rails having a longitudinal slot formed therein, pivot means extending between the semi-circular lobes and through the longitudinal slot whereby the back rest rail can be pivoted on said pivot means and reciprocated longitudinally, a plurality of recesses formed on one of said semi-circular lobes, and a detent pin extending from the back rest side rail adapted to be inserted in one of said lobe recesses, whereby the back rest side rail can be retracted to release the detent pin from a lobe recess and extended to engage a lobe recess for angular adjustment of the back rest side rails on the fitting.
