Abstract: An adjustable chair comprises chair support, backrest, a backrest support mechanism including at least one backrest arm pivotally connected to the support, and a seat having front and rear regions and a seat surface. The chair includes first and second seat support mechanisms with the first mechanism adjustably connecting the front region of the seat and the second mechanism adjustably connecting the rear region. The second seat support mechanism includes at least one seat arm having front and rear arm extensions and connected to the support for pivotal movement about a horizontal axis. The rear arm extension is pivotally connected to the rear region of the seat. A toggle arrangement is pivotally mounted on the chair support and engages the front end section of the at least one seat arm and front end section of the at least one backrest arm.

Abstract: Integrated seat, back and mechanisms are provided for tilting chairs, and other similar seating. The chair has a base, a seat, a back, a back support and a mechanism which interconnects the seat, back and back support, and imparts a predetermined synchronous movement to the seat and back, i.e. rearward tilting of the seat and simultaneous rearward tilting of the back. The chair back has rotation means for rotatably connecting the chair back to the back support. The rotation is about a rotation axis which passes through the upper body of a person when the person is sitting on the seat and resting against the front of the chair back. The bottom portion of the chair is preferably guided so that the bottom may move along an arc between a first position and a second position which is forward and lower than the first position. The mechanism also has a very large range of movement allowing the user a continuous angular variation from forward inclination to full reclined inclination.
