Abstract (en)
The frame for a chair is composed of a thin tubular back member 18 whose ends slot into the first ends 20a, 22b of thicker tubular arm members 20, 22, whose second ends 20c, 22d in turn slot into ends 24c, 26d of still thicker tubular seat support members 24, 26. After assembly, the second ends 24e, 26e of the seat support members 24, 26 are attached to a pedestal and a seat and back are attached to the frame. The tubular members of the frame are fitted together, laid out flat, a plastics cladding is then moulded on to the flat frame which is subsequently bent into its final configuration. The cladding holds the tubular members together. In a modified embodiment the tubular members are individually clad and are held together by fastening devices such as bayonet devices. The differing tube diameters provide ergonomic yielding of the frame.
