RECLINER CHAIR, LOVE SEAT, OR SOFA WITH PROTECTIVE COVER
20230072756 · 2023-03-09 ·

A recliner chair, love seat, or sofa comprises a backrest, a seat, a footrest, and pairs of symmetrical, oppositely disposed linkage members for moving the backrest between upright and reclined positions, and for moving the footrest between retracted and extended positions. A protective cover is fixedly attached to the footrest such that opposite sides of forward portions of the pairs of symmetrical, oppositely disposed linkage members are covered so as to prevent parts of young children or pets from being caught within the forward portions of the pairs of symmetrical, oppositely disposed linkage members as the pairs of symmetrical, oppositely disposed linkage members are moving the footrest between its retracted and extended positions. In addition, a single linear actuator is utilized to move both the backrest between its upright and inclined positions, and to move the footrest between its retracted and extended positions,

RECLINER CHAIR, LOVESEAT, OR SOFA WITH A PROTECTIVE ANTI-TIPPING STRUCTURAL FRAMEWORK

20220312968 · 2022-10-06 ·

Seating furniture includes at least a first and a second linear actuator to adjust the seat part, the foot part, and the back part between the seating and the reclining position. The first linear actuator generates a linear stroke causing the back part to be adjusted relative to the seat part. The second linear actuator generates a linear stroke having at least a first and second partial stroke, The first partial stroke causes, during adjustment of the seating furniture from the seating position into the reclining position, the seat part to slide relative to the frame towards the front, and simultaneously the inclination of the seat part to be adjusted, there being no extension or retraction of the foot part relative to the seat part during this first partial stroke of the second linear actuator. The second linear actuator causes the foot part to extend relative to the seat part by a second partial stroke following the first partial stroke.
