Compact chair-tilting control

Lever-model low-silhouette chair-tilting control

A chair tilting control having a bracket connectable to a seat and a bracket connectable to a base, the base bracket being entirely within the seat connector bracket and having a pair of elongated flat spring bars urging the seat connector bracket against the base connector bracket to the no-tilt condition, and a manually operable spring adjustment screw or lever driving a cam follower to increase or decrease the non-tilting action of the spring.

Low silhouette chair tilting control assembly

A caster has a horn of semi-circular configuration about an axle receiving apertured boss, a web extending radially outwardly from the boss to a semi-cylindrical flange and a pair of wheels, one on each side of the horn, the tread of the wheels being flush with the outer cylindrical surface of the flange. Hub shields are mounted on the wheels in such manner as to avoid load transmission to the shields, yet accommodating a variety of appearance features, ease of installation and reliable retention of the shields in place of the wheels.
