Abstract
A release handle is adapted to activate a portion of a chair or sofa, such as a foot rest or a recline mechanism. The handle allows a user to selectively control the movement of functions of the chair. The handle is coupled to a cable, which is used to release a mechanism on the chair, such as the footrest. The handle includes a grip that is coupled to an annular tube at one end. The annular tube is telescopically coupled to a guide tube. The annular tube protects the cable within the annular tube to prevent wear to the cable and to prevent breakage.
