The seat comprises an control unit (27) which is adjusted to recognize the payment of the use charge and which is adjusted to allow the moving of the seat into a resting space on the grounds of that in which resting space the space (19) for keeping the items of the user is protected and the mentioned resting space can be closed with the covering device (16) and that the control unit (27) is adjusted move the covering device (16) away from the position which closes the resting space with the help of a regulating unit when the paid utilization time has finished.

An armchair comprising a seat chassis supported on a support chassis by a pair of support columns, a chair back structure pivotally attached to a rear end of the seat chassis and to the support chassis, and a leg support structure pivotally attached to a front end of the seat chassis and connected to a beam, wherein the beam is attached the chair back structure. A first actuating device is mounted to the chair back, where a protracting end of the first actuating device is connected to the seat chassis. The armchair further comprises a second actuating device mounted to the support chassis, a footrest connected to a protracting end of the second actuating device, a third actuating device attached to the seat chassis, and a seating structure connected to a protracting end of the third actuating device and mounted above the seat chassis, wherein the seating structure includes an operative position projecting upwards and forwards by the third actuating device at a tilting angle from the seat chassis.

A reclinable chair is provided which has a seat rest, a backrest; a footrest; two side arm portions; and a reclining mechanism arranged to move at least one of the backrest and the footrest from a substantially upright position into a reclined position. The reclining mechanism is mounted to the side arm portions. The reclining mechanism includes an extendable member which acts on a footrest support to move the footrest from a substantially upright position to a reclined position. A linkage bar may be provided to connect the footrest support to a backrest support so that a single driving mechanism causes movement of the footrest into the reclined position and simultaneously causes movement of the backrest into a reclined position. Alternatively, the linkage bar may be omitted so that only the footrest is reclinable. Other advantageous features include adjustable substantially upright and reclined positions for the backrest, a tiltable seat rest, a tiltable headrest and a removable container for rubbish or other objects located under the seat rest.

A mechanical stretching device for automatically folding a movable sofa leg includes a mechanical stretching device, a switching device, and an automatic folding device. The switching device includes a handle ring (1), a handle shank (3), a handle support (6) and a handle spring (5). The automatic folding device includes an automatic rotating part (8), a rotating tube (21), a spring hanging piece (17), folding spring (10). The handle ring (1) is rotatably connected to the handle shank (3). Handle shank (3) is rotatably connected to the handle support (6). The handle support (6) is fixed on the base frame mounting plate (20). The rotating tube (21) is rotatably connected to the base frame mounting plate (20). The automatic rotating part (8) is fixed on the rotating tube (21). The spring hanging piece (17) is rotatably connected to the automatic rotating part (8).

A chair includes a seat, a backrest, and a leg rest. A tilt actuator and lift actuator tilt and lift the seat, respectively. A leg rest actuator extends and retracts the leg rest. A backrest actuator pivots the backrest with respect to the seat. A controller simultaneously controls the actuators such that they move sequentially between multiple predefined states. A control panel enables a user to automatically move the chair to any of the predefined states. Progress indicators are included that provide a visual indication of how far the chair has progressed to a commanded state. A controller controls the actuators such that they simultaneously arrive at each state. One or more functions on a control panel may also be automatically disabled and/or automatically enabled as the chair moves into or out of certain ones of the predefined states.

An elevated mount chair includes: a base; a pair of arms; a seat positioned above the base between the arms; a backrest; a first ottoman; a reclining mechanism attached to the base, the seat and the backrest; and a footrest mechanism attached to the seat and the first ottoman, the footrest mechanism being coupled to the reclining mechanism. The seat includes a T-cushion positioned above a seat frame, the T-cushion having lateral wings that are positioned forward of the arms. The reclining and footrest mechanisms comprise a plurality of pivotally interconnected links configured to move the chair between an upright position, a TV position, and a fully reclined position. In moving between the upright, TV and fully reclined positions, a front portion of the seat experiences substantially no forward or rearward movement relative to the arms.
