Abstract

A backrest device for a chair, capable of, without a reduction in its strength and rigidity, effectively bending backward so as to follow the shape of the back of a person seated on the chair, providing the person with excellent sitting comfort. In the backrest device, a back board (11) is supported by a backrest frame, and the back board (11) has a flexible back stopper (13) on the inner side of a back frame (12). The thickness of a vertical intermediate section of the back stopper (13) is gradually increased from both left and right sections of the intermediate section toward the center such that the thickness is less in both left and right sections and is maximum at the center.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a backrest arrangement of a chair comprising a flexible back support supporting the back of a seated person in a backrest frame. Background technique [0002] In for example JP2002-125797A, JP2005-160558A (especially attached Figure 10-1 7) and JP2001-128785A disclose such a chair back device. [0003] In the back shells of the backrest devices of JP2002-125797A and JP2005-160558A, a plurality of openings are formed throughout the back shell, which flexes backward when pressed by a person's back. However, the thickness of the back shell is approximately equal, and the entire back shell cannot effectively flex backwards along the shape of the back, so sitting comfort cannot be obtained. [0004] In order to overcome said disadvantages, the back shell can be made thinner for easier flexing, but the strength and rigidity of the back shell is reduced, so that the durability is reduced and the sitting comfort may become le...
