Patent attributes
A chair that can transition from an upright position to a reclined position includes a base to rest on a floor, a post upstanding from the base, a chassis affixed to a top of the post and having left and right extensions, armrests extending upward from the left and right extensions. A seat is made up of a seat pan and a seat upper support frame, which are positioned under and above the chassis respectively and has a hole through which the post extends. A backrest has a lower end pivotally joined to the seat and a pivotal connection to each of the armrests, so rearward pressure on an upper area of the backrest causes pivoting of the backrest at the armrests and at the seat, pushing the seat forward to a reclined position in a synchronous motion.
