ABSTRACT:
A reclining chair is provided with an ottoman (or leg rest) which includes primary (or main) and secondary (or mid or middle) ottoman members separately mounted to pantographic linkage subsystems of the side linkages of the chair-operating mechanism. Both ottoman members are padded and include side skirts for veiling respective portions of the side linkages when the ottoman is in a raised condition. The secondary ottoman is articulated directly to the primary ottoman, for control, so that as the ottoman is being retracted to a stowed position below the front of the seat, the secondary ottoman is rotated from a face-upwards, to a face-rearwards orientation, and received into a pocket formed behind the primary ottoman, which is rotated from a face-upwards, to a face-forwards orientation. By preference, a doubly catenated apron joins the seat and arm frame below the seat cushion at the front of the chair to the rear of the secondary ottoman, and the front of the secondary ottoman, to the rear of the primary ottoman.
