    Abstract: PURPOSE: To provide a chair which is moved in the longitudinal direction along a user's back not to rub the back and produce wearing-away and discomfort feeling by arranging a chair back part and a chair seat part in such a manner that the common axis on which the above parts mutually turn is positioned adjacent to a point H, that is, a hip joint of a user. CONSTITUTION: A chair back part and a chair seat part are connected to each other in such a manner as to freely mutually turn on a common axis positioned above the chair seat part 6, in front of the chair back part 5, and substantially adjacent to a hip joint of a sitting user to limit the adjacent space relationship between the hip joint and the common shaft. The chair back part is supported on a base 4 to enable backward inclination of the chair back part. Further, the chair seat part is supported on the base to move the chair seat part on the base, so that the backward inclination of the chair back part simultaneously shifts the positions of the chair back part, the chair seat part and the common axis to keep the adjacent space relationship between the common axis and the hip joint of the sitting user and give improved sitting comfortableness and support of the user.

    Abstract: PURPOSE: To impart a monolithic surface to a finished surface article to be machined cooperatively with a base coat and a protective coat by selectively curing a coating material for protection with UV rays and forming a flawless coating cover for protection on the base coat. CONSTITUTION: The base coating material 7 is applied on the semi-finished product 60 to completely cover the same and is cured by drying. The coating material 8 for protection is applied on the semi-finished product 60 in order to regulate the protected outside surface region of the semi-finished product 60. The semi-finished product 85 having the uncured coating material 8 for protection on the upper part is subjected to translational motion at a specified ratio through a UV processing device 9 and the protected outside surface region of the semi-finished product 85 is simultaneously irradiated with the UV energy. As a result, the coating material for protection is selectively cured and a protective coat which is free from flawing and has smaller gloss is formed on the base coat. The base coat and the protective are capable of cooperatively imparting the monolithic surface to the finished surface article to be machined.
