Abstract

See full text

A low-leg reclining chair disclosed includes a base, right and left sides, a seat, a back, an ottoman having a primary section and a secondary section. The seat, back and the primary and secondary sections of the ottoman are interconnected by reclining mechanisms mounted as mirror-image duplicates of each other on the sides of the chair. The reclining mechanisms permit movement of the seat, back and ottoman between a fully erect position, in which the primary section remains exposed along the chair beneath the seat with the secondary section concealed behind the primary section, and at least one reclining position, in which both the primary and secondary sections are extended with the secondary section positioned between the primary section and the seat. The reclining mechanisms include a multiple-link linkage subassembly having upper and lower forward links that interconnect the primary and secondary sections to a seat-mounting link. The secondary section is connected to the multiple-link linkage subassembly with a one-piece secondary ottoman-mounting link that is simultaneously pivotally connected to the upper forward and lower forward links.
