Abstract

See full text

The mounting for a seat (3) is suitable, in particular, for a chair, but also for stools, individual seats (3) on a bench or fixed seats (3). The mounting makes it possible for the seat (3) to swing resiliently in all directions or in defined directions, in accordance with changes in the user's posture. The seat (3) rests on an underframe on which a spring element (4) is arranged, said spring element being restrained in a casing (5,6) and being capable of moving elastically, in a horizontal plane, therein. The casing (5,6) is connected to the seat (3) or forms a part thereof. The spring element (4) is preferably arranged at the top of an axially extensible push rod of a pneumatic spring (2). The outer sleeve (43) of the spring element (4) is a rubber body, while the axial through-passage (45) of the spring element (4) has a preferably metallic core (44) around it. The specific advantages of the mounting result in improved seating comfort.
