Collapsible chair

A chair which is composed of a flat sheet material such as plywood which can be stored and shipped as a flat package and which can be easily erected to chair form without the use of tools or fastening elements, said chair comprising four pieces as follows:

• a. Two rocker elements, each of said elements having a rounded bottom portion, serving as a rocker for contact with the floor and a back portion extending upwardly therefrom and a cutout portion opposite said rounded bottom portion and said back portion, said cutout including two straight walls inclined at an angle of slightly over 90.degree. to each other, namely a seat-supporting section 19 opposite said rounded bottom portion and a back-supporting section 21, and a slot extending downward from the back portion at the junction of the seat-supporting section and the back-supporting section,
• b. A seat adapted to fit over said rocker and terminating in a tail-like extremity in the shape of a keystone with the large portion of the keystone away from the balance of the seat,
• c. A back portion having an opening in the center large enough to allow the large portion of the keystone of the tail to pass through the opening when the seat is in a vertical plane and to fit snugly with the small portion of the keystone when the seat is in a horizontal plane preventing the seat from rising up and having a pair of slots on the bottom of the back portion, said slots being complementary to the slots in said rocker elements whereby:
• the seat portion can be turned 90.degree. from normal;
• the keystone portion inserted in the slot in the back portion and turned to normal seat position to rest on the rocker portion and said rocker elements can be placed on the floor with the bottom portion of each rocker resting on the floor;
• the back portion placed over the rocker elements with the slots of the back extending into and beyond the slots of the rocker elements.
