Abstract

A reclinable chair includes a frame having a front end and a back end, a seat support (39), and a back support (42). The seat support (39) swivels about a pivot axis which is the axis of the front wheels (32) of a carriage (30,32,34,36) which axis traverses along a forwardly and upwardly inclined pathway (18). The back support (42) has a lower end (43) and an upper end (44), being pivoted adjacent its lower end to the seat support (39) and being pivoted at a location spaced above its lower end to one end of a link member (52) of which the other end is pivoted to the frame. In this manner, forward movement of the seat support (39) causes the same to be raised against gravity while the back support (42) reclines, thus storing potential energy in the seat support (39) which can be subsequently tapped to raise the back support (42), while allowing swivelling of the seat support. <IMAGE>
