Abstract
A chair assembly includes first and second arm rests, a backboard, a pair of first connection devices coupling the backboard between the first and second arm rests, a seat board, and a pair of second connection devices coupling the seat board between the first and second arm rests. Each first connection device includes a first L-shaped anchor, a second transverse anchor, and first and second openings opposite to and receiving the first L-shaped anchor and the second transverse anchor for coupling. Each second connection device includes a third L-shaped anchor, and a third opening opposite to and receiving the third L-shaped anchor for coupling.
