  • Patent number: 10362876
    Abstract: A chair (1) includes an installation base (10), a leg column (11) supported by the installation base (10) in a tiltable manner, a seat body (12) supported on an upper part of the leg column (11), an elastic member (19) which urges the leg column (11) to an initial tilted posture, and a coming-off restriction member (22) which restricts coming-off of the leg column (11) from the installation base (10). On a support wall (16) of the installation base (10) having an insertion hole (20) through which part of the coming-off restriction member (22) is inserted, a slide guide (21) coming into slidable contact with a slide guide (21) at a peripheral edge portion of a lower surface side of the insertion hole (20) is provided. The coming-off restriction member (22) has an upwardly protruding spherical guide surface (23) which is slidably brought into contact with the slide guide (21) below the insertion hole (20).

  • Patent number: 10334953
    Abstract: Furniture and a chair include a shielding piece (7b5) which is provided in an operation plate (7b2) or a flange (7a5) and closes a gap generated by the operation plate (7b2) and the flange (7a5) when the operation plate (7b2) has an operation posture. In addition, a chair includes a load support member for a chair, the load support member for a chair includes a frame member which includes a pair of rod members (19) and an extension material (22) which is formed in a bag shape and covers the frame member, a support portion (26) is provided on each of inner surfaces facing each other in the pair of rod members (19), and an interior material (21) having a repulsive force with respect to a load in a surface perpendicular direction is bridged between the pair of rod members (19) by being supported by the support portion (26).

  • Patent number: 10271640
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a tabletop attached furniture (10, 10A, 10B, 10C) including a plurality of legs (20) which stand on a floor surface (F) and a tabletop (30, 30A, 30B, 30C) supported on the plurality of legs (20), wherein each of the legs (20) is formed so that a width dimension (W1) when viewed from a first direction (X) along an upper surface of the tabletop (30, 30A, 30B, 30C) gradually increases upward from below and a width dimension (W2) when viewed from a second direction (Y) orthogonal to the first direction (X) within a plane following the upper surface of the tabletop gradually increases downward from above.

  • Patent number: 10264886
    Abstract: A pivot shaft (10) which is a first shaft member coupled to a supporting member, an inner cylinder (12) which is a second shaft member coupled to a supported member, and an outer cylinder (14) which is a third shaft member are disposed to be approximately coaxial with each other and disposed radially in multiple layers. The pivot shaft (10) and the inner cylinder (12) are coupled to each other through a first rubber-like elastic member (11), and the inner cylinder (12) and the outer cylinder (14) are coupled to each other through a second rubber-like elastic member (13). The total reaction force is increased by restricting the rotation of the outer cylinder (14) by means of an operating pin (19) which is a reaction force adjusting part and thereby adding a reaction force resulting from the second rubber-like elastic member (13) to a base reaction force resulting from the first rubber-like elastic member (11).

  • Patent number: 10159350
    Abstract: A chair is provided in which a seat-receiving member is provided with outward flanges for regulating upward/downward displacement to support left and right lateral edges of a seat plate. Engaging grooves supported by the outward flanges are provided at the respective left and right lateral edges of the seat plate. Warpage allowable parts in which warpage deformation of the lateral edges is allowed without the upward displacement being regulated by the seat receiving member are provided in regions of the left and right lateral edges of the seat plate, in which the regions are located at a rear side from engagement parts between the engaging grooves and the outward flanges. With this constitution, it is possible to prevent the seat plate from being detached from the seat-receiving member while ensuring that, when an user is seated, the sides of the buttocks of the user are reliably held, and thus improve the seating stability of a seat body.
