Title: Chaise lounge reclining chair
Inventor: BYERSMITH MICHAEL ROBERT
IPC: A47C17/34
Filed: 1991-07-31
Abstract: A chaise lounge recliner chair (300) which incorporates an intermediate leg support member (312) for providing support to the thighs and areas behind the knees of the legs of an occupant of the chair. The intermediate leg support member (312) is connected to a portion of the seat (306) of the recliner chair and a portion of the leg rest member (310) of the chair. When the leg rest member (310) is in an extended position the intermediate leg support member (312) provides a normal slightly convex support surface. As the seat back (302) of the chair is reclined, it causes the seat member (306) to be extended outwardly which causes the intermediate leg support member (312) to assume a pronounced convex surface. A plurality of elastic straps (324) are further included and disposed between the seat (306) and leg rest members (310) to prevent the intermediate leg rest member (312) from crowning downwardly relative to the chair frame when the leg rest member (310) is in it extended position. <IMAGE>

Each of the flick rammers is positioned at an end position where the flick rammers are loaded with the shell and propellant charge, respectively, and in which the gun can recoil between the flick rammers. After the first flick rammer is loaded, it is moved towards the second flick rammer into a position in which the shell in the first flick rammer is in line with a gun barrel. The first flick rammer is then activated to move the shell into the gun barrel. The flick rammers are then jointly displaced in an opposite direction until the first flick rammer is in its end position and the propellant charges in the second flick rammer are in line with the gun barrel. The second flick rammer is then activated moving the propellant charges into the gun barrel and after this the second flick rammer is returned to its end position.
