Abstract Readjustable chair of the kind where a seat and a back are hinge connected to each other, and are supported on a leg subframe work such that the mutual angular position of the seat and back may be altered. Two rigidly fixed supports are provided on each side of the chair, raising from the leg subframe work, and which can carry arm rests. The back of the chair is pivoted to the back support. The seat is fixed to the other support by a pair of slidable and fixable slide shoes.
