ABSTRACT:
An arrangement providing a backrest support pillar, particularly, though not exclusively, for an office chair whereby the height of a backrest can be selected by the user in a simple and ready manner using one hand. More particularly an arrangement is contemplated wherein the pillar is adjustable from a maximum length to a minimum length without resistance and is adjustable incrementally from that minimum length and automatically maintainable at a selected length. The invention also provides a seat/back synchronous tilt mechanism for a chair which eliminates the "shirt-lifting" effect of known chairs.
