<p>A recliner chair assembly including a stationary base and a body support means comprising a seat portion and a backrest portion. A pair of armrests are disposed alongside the seat portion and a track means movably supports the armrests on the base for forward and rearward movement. Linkage means, including a leg rest assembly, operatively interconnects the armrests and the seat portion to support the seat and backrest portions on the armrests. The seat and backrest portions move from an upright position to a rearwardly reclined position as the armrests move forwardly relative to the base and from the reclined position to the upright position as the armrests move rearwardly relative to the base. The leg rest is movable between a retracted position, which it is in when the chair is in the upright position, and an extended position forward of the seat portion when the latter is in the reclined position. There is also included control means including a pair of struts extending upwardly and rearwardly from the base, a track attached to each side of the backrest portion and a roller supported by each strut and movably retained in the adjacent track. The struts coacting with the backrest portion limits rearward movement of the backrest portion relative to the stationary base as the armrests move forwardly to move the seat and backrest portions to a reclined position.</p> |
