Abstract
A reclining chair has a headrest upholstered directly to the front edge of the back of the chair which is automatically adjustable with respect to each of the positions of the reclining chair. The headrest is adapted to move between a position wherein it lies generally flat rearwardly of the back and a position wherein the headrest swings forwardly into a position to comfortably support the user's neck. In order to coordinate movement of the headrest between the positions of the chair, the chair includes a contoured moveable rear support member.
