Abstract

A modular "bridge" section is disclosed having a seat frame assembly and a detachable seat back assembly supported therefrom. The seat frame assembly and the detachable seat back assembly are upholstered to define an aesthetically-pleasing seat section which can be installed between two seat sections or, alternatively, which can be used as an armless end unit of a modular sectional arrangement. In addition, the detachable seat back assembly has a "flip-down" table and a storage bin incorporated therein wherein a linkage serves to support the flip-down table in both an upright position and an open position.
