Abstract:
A chair has two lateral frame parts, each one in the form of a single, continuous member of an elastically yielding material. Transverse rods are connected between the lateral frame parts. A seat is connected to at least one of the transverse rods and a back rest is connected to at least one of the transverse rods. The single member of the lateral frame parts is preferably made of spring steel. Connecting elements that are slipped onto the lateral frame parts are used for connecting the transverse rods to the lateral frame parts. The connecting parts can be balls having throughbores for receiving the lateral frame parts and threaded holes, extending substantially perpendicularly to the throughbores, for receiving the transverse rods.
