Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose reclining seating apparatus with rocking and folding features. The seating apparatus includes a body support portion pivotally connected to a stationary frame, the body support portion including a seat member and a backrest member rotatably coupled with each other, the stationary frame including a first armrest and a second armrest supported by a leg structure. Further, the seating apparatus includes a pair of flexible members configured to adjust and control at least a rocking movement, a reclining movement, or a rocking-reclining movement of the body support portion. Each flexible members is configured to link one side of a seat with the side of a backrest member by passing through guide elements in the armrests in a configuration that transfers the weight of the user sitting on the seat to forward pressure on the backrest such that a user of the chair can easily press backward with the body to recline and when sitting more upright, the chair backrest automatically follows the body to a more upright position.
