  • the appearance of the opening cover 38 differs from that of the other part in the front face of the backrest 3 , but the front cover 1 covers not only the backrest 3 but also the seat 20 and accordingly the appearance of the massage chair can be improved. In addition, slippage of the front cover 1 with respect to the massage chair in use can be prevented. If a cushion is used for the backrest 3 , the massage chair can be employed as a comfort chair.
  • the size of the hood is equal to or larger than that of the front part of the seat 20 and smaller than that of the upper part of the backrest 3 , and accordingly a user can be assisted in covering the front part of the seat 20 with the lower end 11 of the front cover 1 , namely the hood. If the front part of the seat 20 is coved with the hood, the upper end 10 , left end 12 and right end 13 of the front cover 1 can be properly attached to the upper part of the backrest 3 , the left end and the right end of the seat 20 , respectively.
  • the front cover 1 further includes a left flap (flat piece) 14 and a right flap (flat piece) 15 covering the left attachment and the right attachment, respectively.
  • a left flap flat piece
  • a right flap flat piece 15 covering the left attachment and the right attachment, respectively.
  • the left and right flaps can be also employed as earmarks showing the positions of the left and right attachments, respectively.
  • the left flap 14 is continuously formed from the left side of the lower end 11 of the front cover 1 (hood) to at least the intermediate part of the left end 12 .
  • the right flap 15 is continuously formed from the right side of the lower end 11 to at least the intermediate part of the right end 13 .
  • the left and right attachments can be protected with the left and right flaps 14 and 15 , respectively.
  • each appearance of the left and right flaps is unified with the hood, and accordingly the appearance of the massage chair can be more improved.
