A chaise lounge recliner chair (300) which incorporates an intermediate leg support member (312) for providing support to the thighs and areas behind the knees of the legs of an occupant of the chair. The intermediate leg support member (312) is connected to a portion of the seat (306) of the recliner chair and a portion of the leg rest member (310) of the chair. When the leg rest member (310) is in an extended position the intermediate leg support member (312) provides a normal slightly convex support surface. As the seat back (302) of the chair is reclined, it causes the seat member (306) to be extended outwardly which causes the intermediate leg support member (312) to assume a pronounced convex surface. A plurality of elastic straps (324) are further included and disposed between the seat (306) and leg rest members (310) to prevent the intermediate leg rest member (312) from crowning downwardly relative to the chair frame when the leg rest member (310) is in it extended position. <IMAGE> |
