  • EXERCISE DEVICE
    Publication number: 20160256736
    Abstract: A footrest device for supporting and exercising a user's feet and legs. The footrest device includes a pair of footrests that are pivotally connected to the opposed ends of a rigid elongated member, which is suspended by a non-rigid suspension member. The footrests are pivotally connected to the rigid elongated member. The footrest device can be suspended from a fixed object, such as the underside of a desk. Alternatively, the footrest device can include, and be suspended from, a mobile base that is positioned on the floor.

  • EXERCISE DEVICE
    Publication number: 20150306449
    Abstract: A suspended footrest device for supporting and exercising a user's feet and legs. The footrest device includes a pair of footrests that are pivotally connected to the opposed ends of a rigid elongated member. A non-rigid suspension member is connected to a medial section of the elongated member to suspend the footrests. The footrests are pivotally connected to the rigid elongated member using a ball-and-socket joint and/or a rotatable turntable joint. The suspended footrest can also optionally include a damper positioned between each footrest and the respective end of the rigid elongated member for dampening the pivotal movement of the ball-and-socket joint. Optionally, the suspended footrest device can include a rigid elongated support member that has one end rigidly connected to a leg of a chair, and the second end connected to the non-rigid suspension member, whereby the footrests and the rigid elongated member are suspended by the support member.
