ABSTRACT:
A "three-way" recliner mechanism for use in a sofa or loveseat type of article of furniture is disclosed. The present invention is a "zero wall proximity" recliner mechanism which is fully reclinable within the confines of its stationary frame assembly. The recliner mechanism provides operative linkages for "tilting" the seat unit, "reclining" the seat back relative to the seat frame and for extending and retracting a leg rest assembly. The present recliner mechanism has a short stroke drive assembly having an actuator lever, concealed in the upholstery of the sofa or loveseat, which may be easily operated by the seat occupant to concurrently operate the leg rest assembly and generate "tilting" movement of the reclinable seat unit.
