Patent number: 4420186Abstract: An article of upholstered furniture, such as an easy chair or sofa, has a padded back rest comprising a first portion which has a rigid insert embedded therein, and a second portion which has a flexible linkage embedded therein hingedly connected to the rigid insert in the first portion.
