Further, the central region R of the seat plate main body E1 can provide an appropriate sitting comfort due to the elastic evoking action based on the hole N. Further, the support strength of the seat plate main body E changes smoothly as the holes N gradually decrease from the central region R toward the peripheral region E2, which also contributes to the improvement of the durability of the seat plate E as a whole. It is supposed to be done.

Of the plurality of holes N, the hole N provided in the vicinity of the peripheral edge E2 is formed to be the smallest, and the hole N gradually becomes smaller and disappears in the process from the central region R to the peripheral edge E2. It is formed.

Therefore, the plurality of holes N formed in the seat plate main body E1 can express a gradation gradually fading outward from the central region R as a whole, and the lower side of the peripheral edge portion E2 without the holes N. Since the frame is arranged in, the frame is difficult to see from above due to the gradation of the holes N, which can give a visually suitable impression to the user.

The seat plate main body E1 has a substantially rectangular shape in a plan view. Therefore, it has a suitable form in which a seated person can sit while having a plurality of holes N.

The opening edge Ne forming the plurality of holes N has a substantially symmetrical shape with respect to the center point ct in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction in a plan view.

Therefore, each of the plurality of holes N does not easily impair the balance as a whole, and can form a suitable appearance as a whole.

The opening edge Ne has an angleless shape in a plan view. Therefore, it is possible to give the user a soft impression related to the shape of the hole N which does not give a sharp impression.

In a plan view, the opening edge Ne has a shape in which the four sides constituting the square are curved so as to be convex outward.

For this reason, the shape of the hole N is different from the ordinary simple round hole shape, and has a suitable shape capable of exhibiting a certain individuality or originality that can be noticed by the viewer.

The frame constituting the chair is a support frame I or a seat composed of a metal pipe material and a metal plate material including a base frame portion i1 which is a leg frame, a front leg frame portion i2, and a rear leg frame portion i3. It is a frame frame portion 6 which constitutes a seat B2 together with a seat plate E composed of a plate main body E1 and a peripheral portion E2.

Therefore, the seat plates E and H can be supported by frames constituting various chairs.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described in detail above.

It goes without saying that the number of the plurality of holes penetrating in the vertical direction can be set to various numbers.

Further, various shapes can be applied to the shapes of the plurality of holes.

The frame that can be attached to and supported on the lower surface side of the peripheral edge of the seat plate may be a portion that constitutes the seat together with the seat plate, or a portion in a constituent portion (for example, a support) different from the seat. May be.

The left and right paired leg components constituting the support are not limited to those formed by die-casting aluminum. For example, it may be formed by casting molding or injection molding using a synthetic resin.

In addition, the specific configuration of each part is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
