Locking mechanism for glider chairs in recreational vehicles

摘要

A glider chair in a recreational vehicle including a frame suspended from a base by a gliding mechanism for movement of the frame in a horizontal back-and-forth gliding motion relative to the base and a locking mechanism selectively operable to disable the gliding motion of the chair relative to the base. The locking mechanism has a locking plate mounted on a rotatable arm secured in a base from the chair to move pivotally between an inactive position wherein the plate is spaced from the suspended portion of the glider mechanism and a locking position where the plate engages a frame member of the suspended portion of the glider mechanism to prevent horizontal back-and-forth motion of the frame member relative to the base.
