Abstract

The invention relates to an adjustable seat device ( 10 ) that includes: a linear support ( 38 ); at least one upper bearing means of the linear support configured to bear on a horizontal surface at the edge of a swimming pool and at least one lower bearing means of the linear support configured to bear on an inner wall of the swimming pool; a seat ( 28 ); an upper seat rod ( 36 ), having one end provided with a first seat slide ( 29 ) configured to slide along the linear support and a locking means ( 30 ) for locking the first slide in position on the linear support; a lower seat rod ( 37 ), having one end provided with a second seat slide ( 31 ) configured to slide along the linear support and a locking means ( 32 ) for locking the second slide in position on the linear support, the two seat rods jointly supporting the seat and being connected to one another by a swivel link ( 35 ). The seat slides slide independently along the linear support, the joint sliding of the seat slides adjusting the height of the seat and the respective sliding of the seat slides adjusting at least the separation between the seat and the linear support.
