Abstract
Disclosed is a tilting type chair. The chair includes: a seat on which a user is seated; a back support configured to support a back portion of the user seated on the seat; and a tilting section interposed between the back support and the seat to couple the seat to the back support. When the user applies a load to bend the back support backward, the tilting section moves the seat upward in proportion to the load applied by the user, and when the load applied to the back support by the user is removed, the tilting section moves the seat downward in proportion to the removed load. As a result, a more comfortable seating feeling may be provided to the user seated on the seat of the chair. In addition, the tilting may be limited as needed by the user. Thus, the chair may further improve the user's convenience.
