ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to a reclining leisure chair, and more particularly to a locating structure of the reclining leisure chair.
2. Description of Related Art
As shown in
FIGS. 1 and 2
, a reclining leisure chair of the prior art has a reclining frame
10
, which is provided with a slidable rod set
11
. The slidable rod set
11
is provided in an appropriate position thereof with a locating member
12
which is in turn provided with an operation portion
121
. The reclining frame
10
can be adjusted for reclining by loosening up the operation portion
121
to enable the slidable rod set
11
to be displaced. When the reclining frame
10
is in the reclining state, it is rather inconvenient for a person seated on the reclining frame
10
to reach for the locating member
12
. The person might even have to stand up to take hold of the portion
121
of the locating member
12
. In addition, the slidable rod set
11
and the locating member
12
are apt to jam together, especially after the reclining frame
10
is kept in the reclining state for a prolonged period of time. It is conceivable that the reclining frame
10
of the prior art leisure chair cannot be easily readjusted because of the jamming of the slidable rod set
11
and the locating member
12
.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a reclining leisure chair with a locating structure which is free of the drawbacks of the locating structure of the prior art reclining leisure chair described above.
In keeping with the principle of the present invention, the foregoing objective of the present invention is attained by a reclining leisure chair which is formed of a main body, a locating member mounted in the rear edge of the main body, and two sliding members mounted respectively in two sides of the front edge of the main body. The locating member is formed of a U-shaped frame seat, an action member, a resilient member, an auxiliary piece, a clamping piece, an arresting member, a bolt, and an action rod. The locating member of the present invention can be easily operated, without jamming the sliding members.
The objective, features and functions of the present invention will be more readily understood upon a thoughtful deliberation of the following detailed description of the present invention in reference to the accompanying drawings.
