ABSTRACT:
An improved recliner chair is provided of the type having a recliner linkage for controlled movement of a seat and seatback through a sequence of substantially upright and reclined positions, wherein the recliner linkage is further adapted for movement of the seat and seatback to a substantially coplanar horizontal position. The chair includes the recliner linkage for movably supporting the seat and seatback with respect to a chair frame in a manner permitting normal movement from an upright position to one or more reclined positions. A releasable latch assembly permits further reclination movement of the seat and seatback to the substantially horizontal position. The chair is particularly suited for use in a patient care facility, with the horizontal position permitting facilitated patient transfer between a bed and the recliner chair.
