This object is attained in a chair comprising a pedestal; a seat support supported thereon via a chair column, said seat support comprising a front and a rear seat support element being connected with one another via a pivot axis extending substantially horizontally; a seat supported on said seat support elements; a backrest secured on said rear seat support element; a longitudinally adjustable energy storing means for mutually adjusting said backrest and said seat, said energy storing means being joined with said seat support elements at a distance from their pivot axis; a spring abutment being arranged pivotably around said pivot axis for adjustably dampening a pivoting movement of said seat support elements relative to one another; an adjusting element extending substantially tangentially relative to said pivot axis and being pivotable around an adjusting element pivot axis for modifying the bias between said spring abutment and one seat support element; and an actuating twist handle connected with said adjusting element and pivotable around a twist handle pivot axis for manually turning said adjusting element. Said actuating twist handle is connected via a coupling element with said adjusting element for transmitting a turning movement. Said adjusting element pivot axis and said twist handle pivot axis are not flush with one another.

Chair

A chair, in particular office chair, comprises a pedestal; a seat support supported thereon by a chair column and having front and rear seat support elements which are interconnected by a pivot axis; a seat supported on the seat support elements; a backrest fixed to the rear seat support element; and an adjustable-length energy storing device which is articulated to the seat support elements at a distance from the pivot axis thereof, sing for adjustment relative to each other of the backrest and the seat, with one seat support element being equipped with a receptacle for the upper end of the chair column. The receptacle on the seat support element is articulated to the seat support element by way of an articulated axis which is parallel to the pivot axis of the front and rear seat support element. The seat support element is provided with a rack detent arrangement which acts between the seat support element and the receptacle, arresting and releasing various inclinations of the seat support relative to the chair column.

Chair, in particular office chair, having a synchronous mechanism

A back rest for a chair, namely in particular an office chair, has a base plate and a concealing shell disposed at the rear side of the base plate. The concealing shell conceals with its rims the base plate in the region of its edges. In order to ensure an easy assembly and dismantling of the concealing shell to the base plate, hook connections are formed between the base plate and the concealing shell, which can be closed or released by displacing the base plate and the concealing shell in relation to and substantially parallel to each other.
