Abstract
A recliner has a chassis relative to which a seat, a backrest and a leg rest are supported. Electrically controlled recliner and leg rest mechanisms displace the backrest and leg rest between sitting and reclining states. The chassis is supported via a rocker mechanism on a base so as to allow rocking of the chassis relative to the base from a neutral position alternately towards a forward-tipped position and a rearward-tipped position. An electrically controlled rocker-limiting mechanism is deployed such that progressive actuation of the rocker-limiting mechanism deploys from a neutral state in which the chassis is free to rock through an intermediate state in which the chassis is free to rock within only a limited range to a final state in which the chassis is forced into a rearward-tipped position.
