ABSTRACT:
A rocker reclining chair has a base, a rocking frame mounted on the base for rocking movement, a seat frame suspended by linkage from the rocking frame for movement between a lower position and a forwardly raised position, a backrest connected by linkage to the seat frame to pivot relative thereto between normal upright and reclined position, the backrest linkage serving to actuate the seat frame to swing the seat frame upwardly and forwardly when the backrest is moved into reclining positions, and a footrest with the linkage mounting it to the seat frame to be operable by a handle between a retracted position and an extended position. A locking mechanism is provided between the base and the rocking frame and is operative to lock the rocking frame in one of a variety of positions within the limits of the rocking travel when the footrest is not fully retracted. A lock release means connected to the footrest linkage automatically actuates the locking mechanism to release the rocking when the footrest is fully retracted. When the backrest is moved to reclining position independent of the extension of the footrest, the locking mechanism is rendered effective to lock the frame against rocking movement.
