MULTIPOSITION LOCK-ROCK ROCKER AND ROCKING TYPE RECLINING CHAIR

摘要

A mechanism incorporated into a platform rocker which enables the rocker to be employed as a conventional platform rocker, as a platform rocker with a multi-position lock, as a reclining chair and as a rocking reclining chair with the lock for the rocking action being manually actuated by lateral movement of a lever-type handle to lock the chair in multiple positions of tilt. The leg rest structure is also manually actuated by the same lever being operable in a fore and aft direction. An arc slide interconnects the chair seat and chair backrest in which the seat is not movable longitudinally and fixed to pivot at the front to retain optimum balance conditions in all positions of the chair structure.
