  • Patent number: 6648418
    Abstract: A collapsible footrest assembly for a gliding ottoman with a top structure gliding upon a base. A pair of parallel, elongated slides are movably mounted under the top structure between upper and lower positions with respect to the top structure. A footrest is slidably and pivotally mounted between the slides for sliding operation between a slide-in position wherein the footrest extends and is supported between the slides and a slide-out position wherein the footrest is drawn out and pivoted down in front of the slides. The slide arrangement is detachably hooked under the top structure in the upper position, and is detachably locked with the base when it is in the lower position to prevent the ottoman from gliding when the footrest is in use.
