Embodiment Construction

[0024] Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a seating unit having a motor mechanism / motorization mechanism that can be used unobtrusively with a high foot type seat that moves the footrest from a stowed position to an extended position position and can tilt the back / back of the seat unit when the footrest is extended.

[0025] exist figure 1 The exemplary seat mechanism 10 is shown in cross-section of the seat unit 12 in the stowed position. In some aspects, seating unit 12 has legs 14, side frames 16 that cooperate with mechanism 10 to support seat 18 above a floor or other support surface. The seating unit 12 also has an armrest 20 which, in some embodiments, is integrally formed with the leg 14 . Mechanism 10 allows seating unit 12 to use a so-called "high leg" profile while allowing seating unit 12 to have a position such that seating unit 12 figure 1 the folded position of figure 2 The extended position (or TV position) and image 3 The motor mov...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a seating unit movable between a stowed position, an extended position and a fully reclined position. The seating unit includes two side portions spaced apart from each other and a seat portion extending between the two side portions, an extendable footstool, and a seat back extending upwardly from a rear edge of the seat portion. The seating unit also includes side panels adjacent a respective one of the two sides and at least one support tube extending between the side panels. The seat unit has a linkage mechanism supported on the side plates, which links at least the footstool and the seat back. A motor is coupled to the linkage mechanism to move the seating unit between a stowed position, an extended position, and a fully reclined position, wherein the motor extends over the at least one support tube.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to recliner mechanisms and seats using them, and more particularly to an electric / powered recliner mechanism for use on seats with high leg designs, and footrests that are concealed from view when in the stowed position and motor. Background technique [0002] One seat design that uses a reclining mechanism is known as a high leg design. In these types of seats, the legs suspend the seat above the floor surface so that people can see under the seat. In a seat with this shape, the footrest is stored in a more horizontal position (compared to a vertical position). Heretofore, it has been difficult to provide a motorized mechanism to extend the footstool and recline / recline the seat in this configuration. One problem with providing a powered reclining mechanism for use with this style of seat is the positioning of the motor. To maintain the look of the high chair, the motor that powers the mechanism should n...
