SEATING FURNITURE ITEM WITH TELESCOPIC LEG SUPPORT ELEMENT AND SEPARATE SEAT INCLINATION ADJUSTMENT MEANS
20230337823 · 2023-10-26 · ·

A seating furniture item with an adjustable-inclination seat part, a back part, a chassis and an at least two-piece leg support connected pivotably on the seat part and/or on the chassis, wherein the parts of the leg support can be displaced relative to one another during pivoting. A part of the leg support is formed by way of a telescopic leg support element which is retracted when the leg support is pivoted in and is extended in order to increase the length of the leg support when the leg support is pivoted out. By way of a first part stroke, a linear actuator brings about a displacement of the seat part relative to the chassis and a simultaneous inclination adjustment of the seat part, wherein no pivoting out or in of the leg support relative to the seat part takes place during this first part stroke of the linear actuator.
