Abstract

An angularly adjustable backrest mounting assembly for a seat, has an upper transverse member securable at opposite ends to transversely spaced uprights of a seat so as to be angularly movable about a horizontal axis, and a lower transverse member is securable at opposite ends to the transversely spaced uprights below the upper transverse member. An upright member is secured adjacent an upper end thereof to the upper transverse member and adjacent a lower end thereof to the lower transverse member, and a transverse angle retaining member pivotably secured at opposite ends to opposite ends of the upper transverse member is adjustably securable at different heights to the upright member to enable the upper transverse member and the upright member to be retained in the different angular positions. The upright member has attachments to enable a backrest to be secured thereto.
