Abstract
A rocking chair including a body supporting portion, a chair base portion, a locking assembly arid a linkage. The linkage includes a strip of resilient material extending across the backrest of the chair, positioned to receive the back of an occupant of the chair. The strip has a resiliency such that, when an occupant leans back against the backrest of the chair, the strip is responsive to the pressure applied directly thereto to deform rearwardly from an original position and, when the pressure ceases, the strip returns to its original position. The linkage is operatively connected to the locking assembly to cause the locking assembly to prevent movement of the body supporting portion relative to the chair base portion when the strip is in the original position, and to cause the locking assembly to allow movement of the body supporting portion relative to the chair base portion when the strip is deformed rearwardly from the original position.
