Abstract: The present invention provides a tilting control assembly for a chair. The chair comprises a support device, a seat supported above the support device, and a seat back arranged behind the seat to tilt rearwardly. The tilting control assembly comprises a tilting control spring device for elastically supporting the seat back against rearward tilting thereof via a load applying member, a displacing mechanism responsive to a downward load applied to the seat for causing the load applying member to move relative to the spring device, and a lock device for preventing the load applying member from moving reversely relative to the spring device when the seat back is rearwardly tilted.

Abstract: The present invention provides a chair tilting control assembly which comprises a fixed frame mounted on a chair leg post, a tiltable member supported by the fixed frame to tilt downward about a lateral support shaft, and a chair seat movable downward under the weight of a sitter. The tilting control assembly comprises at least one tilting control spring for elastically supporting the tiltable member at a certain support position relative thereto, and a motion converting mechanism which converts downward movement of the seat into displacement of the support position rearwardly away from the lateral support shaft.
