Abstract: A recliner chair includes a seat assembly, a pair of spaced-apart side frames having armrests which extend along each side of the seat assembly, a pair of seat supports pivotally suspended from the armrests for supporting the seat assembly and allowing the seat assembly to pivot relative to the side frames, and a pair of locking bars pivotally connected to the armrests at their upper ends and slidably connected to the seat supports at lower portions of the locking bars. The slidable connections are defined by longitudinal slots formed through lower portions of the locking bars, and projecting members mounted on the seat supports and extending through the slots and being engaged by locking controls. The locking controls are actuatable to clamp against the locking bars to prevent relative movement between the locking bars and the seat supports, thus fixing the seat assembly in a selected position.
