As shown the combined seat and back support 10 is supported by transverse anchorage members 3 and 5 connecting curved tubular side members 2. Three elliptical springs 6 are interconnected by slats 6c to provide a thigh rest secured to the member 10 by a backing 8 and bolts 9 and the down-turned ends of the springs are secured to the anchorage member 5 by bolts 7. A back support 4 may be provided. In a modification 'the thigh rest may include a curved rigid plate secured to the spring elements and in a pilot's seat in an aeroplane the seat portion and thigh rest may be divided into two parts supported by independently movable spring structures. Specifications 429,528, 522,100 and 550,068 are referred to.
