Since the backrest main body 52 can be moved while the protrusion 63 is slid into the sliding recess 62, the position of the backrest main body 52 can be easily adjusted. Further, since the back protrusion 61 is disposed on the lower side of the back surface of the backrest main body 52, the upward movement width of the backrest main body 52 can be increased, and the backrest main body 52 is connected to the backrest main body 52. The gap with the member 70 can also be increased. As a result, the user can move the backrest main body 52 up and down and more easily grip the connecting member 70.

Further, since the connecting member 70 is formed so that the wide surface is parallel to the inclination direction of the inclined portion 53 and the substantially central portion in the width direction is narrow in the inclined direction, the user can When viewed from above, the position to be the grip portion can be easily confirmed, and the connecting member 70 can be easily gripped.
Further, since the backrest main body 52 is supported by the front surface of the backrest support member 51, the support strength is high.

  Note that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. What was comprised combining each component mentioned above suitably is also contained in this invention. Further effects and modifications can be easily derived by those skilled in the art. Therefore, the broader aspect of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the rear connecting member is fixed to the lower surface of the seat and the front connecting member is attached to the lower surface of the seat with the front-rear position adjustment mechanism interposed is described, but the front connecting member is fixed to the lower surface of the seat. The rear connecting member may be attached to the lower surface of the seat with a front / rear position adjusting mechanism interposed therebetween. Moreover, although the said embodiment demonstrated the case where the back connection material of the lower surface of a seat was fixed in a 2nd fixing | fixed part, it is good also as a structure which fixes a seat directly to a 2nd fixing | fixed part, without using a back connection material.
