Abstract: An extensible footrest, particularly for armchairs, sofas and the like, which comprises a frame adapted to be hinged to a frame of a seat of an armchair, sofa or the like, the footrest frame being constituted by a first pair of lateral arms and by a second pair of lateral arms which are slideable with respect to the first pair of lateral arms, at least one actuator being rigidly connected to the seat frame at one end and to the footrest frame at an opposite end, in order to transfer the footrest frame from a first retracted inactive position to an extended active position.

Abstract: A massaging device having a very simple structure, which can be used directly or can be inserted in the back of massage chairs or the like comprises a post which supports, so that it can slide in a substantially vertical direction, a movable framework provided with massage wheels. Elements are provided for the translatory motion of the framework along the post to move the massage wheels in substantially vertical directions to perform a massaging action of the so-called "stretching" type. The structural simplicity of the device allows to significantly contain its production costs.
