Abstract
A stacking armchair and a chair frame therefor. A horizontal frame member has an U-shaped, horizontal portion and a pair of downwardly and outwardly turned vertical front portions. The horizontal portion comprises a lateral rear portion and horizontal side portions that lie generally parallel to each other, but diverge somewhat from rear to front. Two frame juncture members are secured to the frame side portions adjacent the rear lateral portion. Each of a pair of rear legs with integral back-support portions is secured to a frame juncture member, so that they are spaced apart from each other farther than are the side rails. They provide nearly parallel back-support portions that diverge slightly from each other. To these, along mating sloping faces are secured arm and front leg members providing arms parallel to and outboard of said side rails and also providing the chair's vertical front legs. The front portions of the horizontal frame member are secured to upper portions of the front legs. A seat (preferably non-rigid and resilient) bridges and is secured to the frame side portions and urges them toward a truly parallel relationship, and a similar back bridges and is secured to the back-support portions and, urges them toward a truly parallel relationship.
