The spinal support of office chairs
The spinal support of office chairs, known as the mechanism, often faces rough handling or neglect in using its adjustment controls placed under the seat.
To assist in understanding these mechanisms, we've created a concise guide to differentiate and grasp the primary types of office chair mechanisms.
Before delving in, let's recall our previous discussion on ergonomic office chairs. They offer adjustments for both a static optimal seating position and dynamic movements while seated, preventing discomfort like heavy legs or muscle soreness.
Classifying mechanisms based on their operation principles:
Tilt Mechanism: Allows tilting atop the seat. Primarily used in chairs with a unified seat and backrest structure, suitable for sporadic use rather than intensive professional usage due to its limited flexibility.
Oscillating Mechanism: Offers adjustments like seat height, mechanism locking/unlocking, and weight-based responsiveness. Adjustments might be controlled by independent levers or a single lever.
Knee Tilt Mechanism: A forward-moved rotation axis in comparison to traditional tilt mechanisms, ensuring superior comfort during tilting phases. Similar adjustments to the tilt mechanism.
Synchronized Mechanism: Enables synchronized movement of the backrest and seat in specific ratios, promoting natural body movement and ergonomic usage. Ideal for professional and intensive usage due to its dynamic adaptability.
Self-Weight Mechanism: A synchro mechanism self-adjusting according to user weight. Offers simpler adjustments, suitable for continuous professional use, though with less refined response adjustment.
Asynchronous Mechanism: Allows independent adjustment of backrest and seat for finding an optimal static position but lacks tilting, restricting dynamic chair usage. Suitable for professional and intensive use, ensuring excellent static sitting adjustments. Adjustments include seat height, seat inclination, and backrest inclination.
Understanding these mechanisms can aid in choosing the most suitable chair for specific needs, balancing between static support and dynamic flexibility.
