  • Patent number: 6309015
    Abstract: On a spring-assisted handle-operated rocker recliner, each side linkage is provided with a forward and a rear landing gear. On each side, the links on which the contact elements (such as rollers) are mounted, are pivoted at intermediate locations on each, to the main flange of the respective side linkage. The ends nearest to the middle of the respective rocker cam are both pivoted to a set of links that, in effect, pull up those ends as the handle, and therefore the torque tube, is rotated to thrust the ottoman, and to push down those ends as the torque tube is rotated to retract the ottoman. The flange on each side linkage is provided with slots, which are enlarged at one end for facilitating mounting the flange on the respective rocker cam.
