Fig. 9 is the stereogram similar to Fig. 8, but two reaction member are arranged.

Rocking chair among Fig. 1 comprises having the seat 1 that a pair of shaped form that can joltily be installed on the base 2 that does not shake is shaken part 1 '.It is well-known that seat 1 is installed in the mechanism that is adopted on the base 2, does not do explanation at this.Can adopt any suitable mechanism that seat 1 can be shaken on base 2.

Reaction member 3 comprises support member 4 and leg rest spare 5 mounted thereto, and this reaction member is expressed as in Fig. 1,2,4 and 5 and is operably connected on the base 2.

As can be seen from Figure 3 support member 4 comprises horizontal frame 6, and this framework is connected at pivot 9 places with the rotating framework 7 with rotating strut 8.Horizontal frame 6 all has the stops 10 and 10 ' of two isolated convex form in its both sides, strut 8 is optionally by thereon.Strut 8 leans against on the projection 10 in Fig. 1 and Fig. 3, the position of lifting that leg rest spare 5 then mediates.In Fig. 4, strut 8 leans against on the nearer projection 10 ', and leg rest spare 5 then is in the highest position of lifting.Clearly can install other projection so that the position of further lifting or putting down of leg rest spare 5 to be provided on horizontal frame 6, this depends on as mentioned below for cosily and effectively shaking the required number of lifting the position of rocking chair.Leg rest spare 5 is equipped with foot pad 5 ', and this foot pad can be any suitable shape and material.

Rocking chair do not shake the brake (shown in Fig. 2 and 3) that base 2 has preceding cross member 11 forms, by this brake reaction member 3 operationally is connected with base 2.The horizontal frame 6 of reaction member 3 has the brake apparatus that shape is the interval of

parallel cross member

12,12a, 12b, 12c.Also available in addition several pin to the interval substitutes one or more cross members.From Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 (part is from Fig. 4) as can be seen, preceding cross member 12a is placed on the back of the cross member 11 of base 2, make reaction member 3 operationally link to each other with base 2 like this, promptly being meshing with each other between cross member 12a and the cross member 11 stops reaction member 3 to break away from the motion of base 2.

In Fig. 1 and Fig. 5, cross member 12b has been lifted to cross to member 11 and has abutted with it, thereby for example provides a more close base 2 of reaction member 3 thereby the position of more close seat for shorter and smaller rocking chair user.By being lifted, cross member 12c crosses the position that cross member 11 and its engagement obtain the more close base 2 of reaction member 3.

Fig. 6 shows the reaction member 3 that leaves under the seat 1.Must move past projection 10,10 ' earlier in order to reach this position strut 8, make leg rest spare 5 lie in as shown in Figure 5 on the horizontal frame 6 of reaction member 3.Then reaction member 3 is raised a bit slightly, the cross member 11 that makes cross member 12a, b, c lift to cross base 2 so that reaction member 3 can below seat 1, move, to deposit as shown in Figure 6.Then reaction member 3 is put down, made cross member 12a mesh from the cross member 11 ' at the rear portion of front and base 2, move backward to stop reaction member 3, cross member 12 meshes with cross member 11 from behind, travels forward to stop reaction member 3.

In use, reaction member shifts out for 1 time from seat, and the position from Fig. 6 moves on to cross member 12a, and b or c are in the cross member 11 back position engaged (as shown in Fig. 1 or Fig. 4) of base 2.Then leg rest spare 5 is lifted to required height, and with projection 10 or 10 ' with strut 8 stationary positioned (Fig. 1 or Fig. 4).The people who is sitting in the seat 1 can shake seat 1 by the foot pad 5 ' of pushing reaction member 3 with pin to.Because reaction member 3 is by cross member 12a, b or c mesh with the next-door neighbour of cross member 11 and are operably connected with base 2, and reaction member 3 can not be slided but with respect to base 2 fastening location.In addition if necessary, the user can be only to the hind wing seat, shakes and stop by the pressure of going up the maintenance pin at foot pad 5 '.

Figure 7 shows that a kind of rocking chair of making an amendment slightly.The cross member 12a of reaction member 3 wherein, b is by isolated several to pin 13,13 '; 14,14 ' grade substitutes.Wherein the brake component of strut 8 is the paired groove 15,15 ' similar to the layout on the standard folding seat; 16,16 '.Leg rest spare 5 has a continuous mat 17 and has replaced bound feet pad 5 ' among Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.Be clear that very foot pad 5 ' and mat 17 can be any profile and form that other is fit to comfortable or easy to use.Reaction member 3 is very simple with exercisable connection between the base 2 as mentioned above.But also can adopt more complicated being operatively connected, as the track on the base 2 that meshes by isolated roller on the framework 6 of reaction member 3 or guide wheel.Be equiped with locking mechanism, on the diverse location of track, to lock roller or guide wheel.

Also can use according to rocking chair of the present invention for many people.Like this, as shown in Figure 8, seat 1a is enough wide to hold two (or more) people.Reaction member 3 also is similarly enough wide, makes user's perk or shake seat 1a backward.In fact, this seat that shakes is exactly a kind of " shaking sofa ".Equally, seat 1a can be the form of bench, makes that this rocking chair is a kind of " shaking bench ", for example for using in the park.Corresponding modification should be done in term " rocking chair ".

Similar among " shaking sofa " shown in Figure 9 and Fig. 8.Wherein, be equiped with the reaction member 3,3 ' of two separation, with when user tall and another when short, can be adjusted separately.

Though in illustrated all embodiment, all have two curves to shake part 1 ', also can use the single curve of the width that stretched seat 1 basically to shake part.

Aforesaid reaction member 3 can be used for the rocking chair of the firm banking of any kind, and wherein this seat has at least one and shakes part, for example wherein seat have against the edge, be used for preventing to clip to finger.Specifically, shake part with do not shake the surface that base contacts can be nearer than overhead from seat, as shown in the patent application 9921945.3 of the common pending trial of application on September 16th, 1999.
