Furniture construction

Claim 1

A furniture construction comprising two spaced cylindrical frame members, means holding said frame members in a relatively fixed spaced relationship, flexible webbing members extending between said frame members and secured thereto, said webbing members being of a plastic material which will readily stretch when heated but which has a substantial ''''plastic memory'''' so that it will return to its original length at room temperature, each of said frame members having a further cylindrical member of smaller cross-sectional area than saiD frame member, said further member being secured to said frame member in spaced, parallel relationship therewith by a plurality of cross members extending between and rigidly secured to the frame member and the further cylindrical member at various points between adjacent spaced webbing members intermediate the ends of said frame member and further member, each of said webbing members having an intermediate main portion and end portions continuous therewith, each end portion initially passing over one of said frame members, then over the spaced further cylindrical member secured to said frame member, and finally to said intermediate main portion back over said frame member and overlying said intermediate main portion back over said frame member and overlying said initial end portion, said webbing members being under sufficient tension at room temperature that the overlying end portion of the webbing presses the initial end portion into firm engagement with said frame member, and the initial end portion of each webbing member being adhesively secured to the overlying portion of said webbing member adjacent to the area where both portions extend over the frame.
