Abstract
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.
