ABSTRACT:
A recliner mechanism incorporating a push-button assist apparatus for initiating movement of a leg rest assembly from a retracted position to an extended position. A pair of C-shaped toggle links are fixedly coupled to a drive rod and each include coil springs, the coil springs further being coupled to an adjustable tensioning mechanism to enable the tension of both coil springs to be adjusted. A pair of tracks are provided for enabling a portion of the recliner mechanism to move forwardly upon actuation of the push-button assist apparatus. An adjustable stop bracket is provided for limiting the forward travel of the recliner mechanism along the tracks to thereby adjustably control the height and inclination angle of the leg rest member.
