摘要 |
This invention relates to a chair (10), having a seat mounted on support means (30, 40) to provide a load bearing surface above the ground and a backrest (30) pivotally mounted relative to a distal end of said seat (10) for movement between a first configuration in which the backrest (30) is upright relative to the seat and a second configuration in which said back rest (30) is substantially horizontal relative to the ground (15). The chair further comprises a reclining mechanism (32, 34) for raising and lowering the seat relative to the support means (30, 40) such that, in said first configuration, the load bearing surface is higher relative to the ground (15) than in the second configuration. |
