Patent ID: 7866749

Claim:
A tilting device for a reclining chair possessing an adjustable seat, comprising: a support base associable to at least one pedestal, a mounting body for a seat back which is rotatably articulated to said support base around a first axis essentially orthogonal to said pedestal, a mounting plate for the seat surface of said seat which has a front end and a back end rotatably articulated around a respective hinge axis essentially parallel to said first axis, to said support base and to said mounting body, respectively, an elastic means of thrust acting along an essentially orthogonal direction with respect to said first axis, said elastic means of thrust having a first end acting on said support base and a second end acting on said mounting body, and blocking means for selectively positioning said mounting body in at least two different neutral positions, each neutral position providing said mounting body in a different angle relative to said support base, said blocking means acting contrary to said elastic means of thrust, said mounting plate assuming two corresponding different angles.
