Combined tension and back stop function for seating unit

摘要

The chair has a seat (1) and a seat mechanism (2), where the seat mechanism permits a sideways pivoting movement of the seat. The seat and the seat mechanism are formed such that one side of the seat is movable independently of the other side of the seat, during the sideways pivoting movement of the seat. The seat mechanism is formed so that the seat is mounted to be pivotable about a rotation axis lying parallel to a knee axis of a user. The seat has a seat surface (10) and a backrest (11), where the backrest and the seat surface are movable relative to one another.
