SLIDING, PIVOTING AND RECLINER SITTING MECHANISM FOR CHAIR AND BENCH

摘要

A sliding, pivoting and recliner sitting mechanism for chair and bench enables a seated user to transition between an upright position and a reclined position. To accomplish this the sitting mechanism has a seat platform, a back frame, a cushion, a backrest, and an adjustable leg assembly. Seat platform and the backrest are connected to form an L-shaped frame. The backrest is pivotably connected in between the back frame and the cushion so that angular displacement of the backrest can be used to linearly displace the cushion along the seat platform. The adjustable leg assembly is mounted beneath the seat platform and enables the user to modify the height of the cushion. Accordingly, the sitting mechanism can be used by individuals of varying shape and size.
