ABSTRACT:
An articulating knock-down frame and an improved cover design for a chair. The frame includes a pair of separate generally U-shaped frame portions, one being a seat and the other a backrest, and a pair of generally L-shaped connectors adapted for a telescopic fit with the U-shaped portions. The U-shaped frame portions are champfered about their ends to ease installation of the cover and to prevent tearing. An optional feature is also shown to facilitate disassembly, and this is a spring-loaded break joint in one or both of the U-shaped frame portions. The cover fits over the frame and holds the component parts in assembly. The cover includes a top panel section sewn against a bottom panel section, and a side panel section sewn therebetween to form an enclosure for holding an integral cushion.
