Le dessin annexe represente, ä titre d'exem- ple, une forme d'execution de la chaise faisant 1'objet de 1'invention. The accompanying drawing shows, by way of example, one embodiment of the chair which is the subject of the invention.

Les fig. 1 ä 3 sont des vues d'ensemble de la chaise dont la fig. 1 est une vue en elevation ; la fig. 2 une vue en plan de la fig. 1, et la fig. 3 une vue laterale. Les fig. 4 ä 9 representent des details de housses que comprend la chaise. La fig. 4 est une vue en coupe longitudi- nale, suivant la ligne IV-IV de la fig. 5, dune housse elastique de siege. Figs. 1 to 3 are general views of the chair of which FIG. 1 is an elevation view; fig. 2 a plan view of FIG. 1, and fig. 3 a side view. Figs. 4 to 9 show details of covers included in the chair. fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view along line IV-IV of FIG. 5, an elastic seat cover.

La fig. 5 est une vue en plan par-dessous de la housse reprdsent6e ä la fig. 4. fig. 5 is a bottom plan view of the cover shown in FIG. 4.

La fig. 6 est une vue en plan par-dessous de la housse depliee representee aux fig. 4 et 5, des traces de pliage 6tant indiqudes en poin- tilld. fig. 6 is a plan view from below of the unfolded cover represented in FIGS. 4 and 5, traces of folding being indicated in dotted lines.

La fig. 7 est une vue en elevation dune housse 61astique, destinde ä Former 1e dossier de la chaise. fig. 7 is an elevational view of a plastic cover, intended to form the back of the chair.

La fig. 8 en est une coupe en plan, suivant la ligne Vlll-VIII de la fig. 7 ; et La fig. 9 en est une coupe transversale, suivant la ligne IX-IX de la fig. 7. Dans la forme d'execution representde, la chaise comprend un siege forme d'un cadre sur lequel est tendue une toile souple 1 et deux montants de dossier 2, 2' depourvus de traverse superieure ou de panneau de dossier. Le siege est recouvert dune housse elastique 3 et les deux montants 2, 2' sont coiff6s dune housse elastique 4, servant de dossier, ces housses etant amovibles. fig. 8 is a plan section, along the line VIII-VIII of FIG. 7; and fig. 9 is a cross section, along the line IX-IX of FIG. 7. In the form of execution represented, the chair comprises a seat in the form of a frame over which is stretched a flexible fabric 1 and two uprights of the backrest 2, 2′ devoid of an upper crosspiece or of a backrest panel. The seat is covered with an elastic cover 3 and the two uprights 2, 2' are capped with an elastic cover 4, serving as a backrest, these covers being removable.

La housse du siege 3, de forme g6ndrale trapezoidale, est confectionnee en tissu dlasti- que, constitu6 de matiere synth6tique ou natu- relle, avec revetement en matiere plastique. Sur une partie de chacun de ses Bords latdraux 5, 5', non paralleles, la housse 3 prdsente une Bande d'61argissement 6, 6' respectivement, munie des dlements femelles de boutons ä pres- sion 7, destines ä coopdrer avec les elements mäles 8 correspondants fixes ä la face inf6- rieure des Bords lateraux 9, 9' respectivement, du cadre du siege. La bande d'extr6mite 10 de la housse 3, representee d6pliee ä la fig. 6, est rabattue sous la partie ant6rieure du siege 1, entre les jambes ant6rieures 11, 11' de la chaise. The seat cover 3, generally trapezoidal in shape, is made of elastic fabric, consisting of synthetic or natural material, with plastic coating. On a part of each of its non-parallel lateral edges 5, 5', the cover 3 presents a widening band 6, 6' respectively, provided with female elements of press studs 7, intended to cooperate with the elements corresponding males 8 fixed to the underside of the side edges 9, 9' respectively, of the seat frame. The end strip 10 of the cover 3, shown unfolded in FIG. 6, is folded under the front part of the seat 1, between the front legs 11, 11' of the chair.

La fixation de la housse sur 1e siege s'effec- tue de la maniere suivante : apres avoir rabattu les bords de la housse 3 suivant les lignes de pliage, repr6sent6es en pointi116 ä la fig. 6, an les assemble entre eux, par exemple par bor- dage ou collage, et Fon fixe la housse sur 1e siege au moyen des boutons ä pression 7-8, ce qui a pour effet de tendre la face sup6rieure de la housse. The fixing of the cover to the seat takes place in the following manner: after having folded down the edges of the cover 3 along the fold lines, shown in dotted lines in FIG. 6, an assembles them together, for example by edging or gluing, and Fon fixed the cover on the first seat by means of the press studs 7-8, which has the effect of stretching the upper face of the cover.

Dans une variante, la housse pourrait Ure fixee au siege au moyen de lacets. Alternatively, the cover could be fixed to the seat by means of laces.

La housse du dossier 4 reprAentee aux fig. 7 ä 9, de forme trapezodale, est confectionnee en utilisant la meme matiere que celle dont est faite la housse 3, ses bords 6tant assemb16s de maniere ä former une sorte de poche 61astique. The cover of the backrest 4 shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, of trapezoidal shape, is made using the same material as that of which the cover 3 is made, its edges being assembled so as to form a sort of elastic pocket.

Du fait que les montants 2, 2' du dossier ne sont pas relies entre eux ä leur partie supe- rieure, la housse est tendue entre lesdits mon- tants en les coiffant, comme repr6sente dans les fig. 1 ä 3, formant ainsi 1e dossier de la chaise. Since the uprights 2, 2' of the backrest are not interconnected at their upper part, the cover is stretched between said uprights by covering them, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, thus forming the backrest of the chair.

0n pourrait 6galement munir la chaise d'accoudoirs 12, comme represente en traits mixtes ä la fig. 3. Il est Evident que, dans ce cas, la housse 4 comporterait des echancrures, non repr6sent6es au dessin, pour 1e passage des accoudoirs 12 ä 1'endroit de leur fixation sur les montants de dossier 2, 2'. 0n could also provide the chair with armrests 12, as shown in phantom in FIG. 3. It is obvious that, in this case, the cover 4 would include indentations, not shown in the drawing, for the passage of the armrests 12 at the place of their attachment to the back uprights 2, 2'.

Parmi les avantages de la chaise represen- tee et decrite, il y a lieu de citer que la sou- plesse du dossier est obtenue par la flexion de ses deux montants d6pourvus de traverse sur une hauteur d'environ 30 ä 40 cm ä partir de leur sommet. En outre, la matiere utilisee pour la confection des housses permet de les revUir d'impressions sous forme de dessins d'orne- mentation et de les colorier. Gräce ä leur amo- vibilite, les housses peuvent etre changees faci- lement, ce qui permet d'assortir les chaises au mobilier dont elles font partie. Among the advantages of the chair represented and described, it should be mentioned that the flexibility of the backrest is obtained by the flexion of its two uprights without crosspieces over a height of approximately 30 to 40 cm from their peak. In addition, the material used for making the covers allows them to be re-printed in the form of ornamental designs and to be colored. Thanks to their removability, the covers can be easily changed, allowing the chairs to match the furniture of which they are a part.
