ABSTRACT:
In a reclining chair a seat carrier and a reclining backrest carrier are movably interconnected to perform synchronized shifting movements relative to the frame of the chair. The bottom end portion of the backrest carrier extends under the seat carrier. Connecting means connect the seat carrier and the backrest carrier to each other and cause them to move at the same time. When the body of a person sitting on the seat carrier initiates a shifting movement of the backrest carrier from a steep position to a reclined position, the seat carrier will be moved forwardly at the same time and at least its rear portion will be lowered. Because the backrest carrier and the seat carrier are connected to the connecting means at spaced apart points, any movement of one of said carriers will be transmitted to the connecting means and by the latter to the other carrier. In spite of their connection by the connecting means the two carriers are guided on the frame along paths which are independent of each other. During the reclining movement the backrest carrier is lowered to an at least slightly larger extent than the seat carrier adjacent to the latter. As a result, an inexpensive reclining chair is provided, which can conveniently be moved to a reclined position for a comfortable rest.
