Abstract

There is described a chair (1) comprising a back (2), an arm rest (3), and a seat (4). The back (2) and the arm rest (3) are swinging relative to the seat as well as the arm rest also is swinging relative to the back. In order to establish a swinging of the back (4) which is neutral and ergonomically correct with a connected swinging of the arm rest, the back (4) is arranged so that it swings according to a course where it extends as a tangent to a curve. The curve is approximately circular and has a centre defined via a journal (19) and which is in a position before the back cushion (5) and above the seat cushion (6). Furthermore, the arm rests (3) are supported by a bracket (25) connected with the back (2) and which is guided in a groove (21), so that it performs approximately half the circle relative to the swinging of the back (2).
