ABSTRACT:
An improved linkage mechanism for use in a reclining item of action furniture having a movable seat, backrest and footrest, the mechanism being so constructed as to move the seat and backrest away from a wall immediately behind the backrest as the item of furniture moves from an upright to a TV or fully reclined position. Thereby, the backrest is prevented from contacting the wall behind the item of furniture during its movement to a fully reclined position. The mechanism is so constructed that a weight applied to the footrest when the mechanism is fully reclined will cause the mechanism to move from the fully reclined to the TV position and ultimately to the upright position.
