Abstract

1,123,441. Seats. GENERAL STEEL PRODUCTS Inc. 11 Jan., 1966 [11 Jan., 1965], No. 1149/66. Heading A4J. In a reclining and platform rocking chair, a reclining mechanism for the chair is arranged to move a control device, for limiting the rocking amplitude, to one of its limits and thus to prevent the chair from rocking in the rearward direction, when it is in the semi or fully reclined condition. Restoration to the upright condition, allows pin (130) (Figs. 8-10, not shown) to ride in slot (122) of pivoted arm 120 during normal rocking motion. Pin (130) is carried on pivotal link 128 to enable rearward motion of cross-bar 67, relatively to cross-member 21, to move it to the upper end of slot (122). This movement occurs as the seat 13 is shifted rearwardly into the semi-reclined position (Figs. 4 and 9, not shown) and the leg rest 15 is simultaneously erected. Rocking in the rearward direction is thus inhibited without altering the relative inclination of the seat 13 and back 14. Rearward tilting of the back 14 into the fully reclined position (Figs. 5 and 10, not shown) increases the tension in arm 120 and rolls the rockers 23 forwardly.
