RECLINING SEAT

Reclining seat having a seat back (110), a seat bottom (120), and a spine (140) within the seat back and seat bottom. The seat bottom is coupled to a base (130) and translates relative to the base. The seat includes a guide ramp (132) coupled to the base. A portion of the spine is located within the guide ramp. In response to translation of the seat bottom, the guide ramp applies a torque on the spine, causing the seat back to recline.
