ABSTRACT A locking mechanism for reclining chairs normally preventing recline of the chair and operated by or upon the ex- tension of the footrest to permit the chair to recline, and upon recline, to lock the footrest against retraction. When the chair is shifted back to sitting position the footrest is again retract- able, and when retracted, again prevents recline of the chair. Installed in a rocker-recliner, the mechanism also nor- mally prevents recline, and when operated as above stated to per- mit recline, simultaneously locks the chair against rocking. Both recline and rocking locks utilize paired links alignable alternatively to prevent or permit relative movement of their associated parts. Also, recline of the chair, while lock- ing the footrest against independent retraction, effects a slight related retraction thereof to prevent downward pull upon the occupant's outstretched legs upon recline.
