Apparatus for use in an easy chair for manual fore and aft, longitudinal adjustments of the seat cushion. A flexible seat cushion rests upon a carriage assembly. The carriage assembly has a pair of straight, laterally spaced-apart, fixed tracks and, longitudinally coplanar therewith, a pair of pliable tracks that extend rearwardly from the fixed tracks. The fixed and pliable tracks are received by, and slidably engage, a pair of laterally spaced-apart channels mounted between vertical frame supports of the chair. The channels extend rearwardly from a front portion of the chair, behind and downwardly from the back of the chair. When fully retracted, the carriage assembly and seat cushion likewise extend partially behind and down from the back of the chair. The carriage assembly can be locked in any one of a plurality of positions by manual manipulation of a handle attached to a bale. The bale is pivotally mounted to the carriage assembly such that up and down movements of the handle cause a pair of hook ends of the bale to move into and out of detents longitudinally disposed along and adjacent to the fixed tracks, thereby locking and unlocking the carriage assembly.
