Abstract: Described are leg supports for a vehicle occupant having a leg support base and a leg engagement member that is positionable to support the lower leg of the vehicle occupant such that the upper leg and the lower leg extend in a common plane that is substantially parallel to the sagittal plane of the vehicle occupant. According to one aspect, the leg support includes a guide configured to mount to a center console in a selected position relative to a vehicle seat in a vehicle, the leg support base being slidably mounted to the guide, and to provide adjustment of a position of the leg engagement member through sliding movement of the leg support base relative to the guide. According to another aspect, the leg support includes a pump coupled to the leg support base to provide a fluid to at least partially fill the leg engagement member.

Abstract: In an aspect, a leg support for a vehicle occupant is provided, and includes a leg support base and a leg engagement member. The leg support base is connected (or is connectable) to a center console of the vehicle. The leg engagement member may be integral with the leg support base or may be extendable from the leg support base. The leg engagement member is configured to engage the laterally outer face of a lower leg of a vehicle occupant. The leg engagement member has a leg engagement surface that has a lower edge and an upper edge. The lower edge is positioned to engage the lower leg of the vehicle occupant above the lateral malleolus of the fibula of the vehicle occupant. The upper edge is positioned to engage the lower leg of the vehicle occupant above a midpoint of the fibula and below the superior epiphysis of the fibula.
