Abstract: A legrest for a stowable seat may comprise a legrest chassis comprising a first end and a second end, the first end being located opposite the second end, a footrest opening disposed in the second end, and an extendable footrest configured to at least one of extend from and retract into the footrest opening. The legrest may be configured to be coupled to the stowable seat at the first end.

Abstract: A split ottoman linkage having a plurality of interconnected links that move a middle ottoman and a front ottoman from a closed position to an extended position. The middle ottoman moves in a relatively constant radial arc, such that a chaise pad can be used on the chair. The middle ottoman and the front ottoman are positioned adjacent one another in the closed position, and are spaced from one another in the extended position.

Abstract: A chair with articulable support sections and an integrated lift system may have support sections mechanically linked such that a single actuation control device may articulate multiple sections. The chair includes configurable accessories directed to the comfort of an occupant of the chair. The support sections may include air cells to adjust firmness of support section surfaces.

Abstract: An ottoman device includes a first mechanism that has an operating portion operable to adjust a longitudinal position of a front end portion of a seat cushion corresponding to the inner sides of knees of a seated person, and is operable to vary a cushion length by adjusting the longitudinal position of the front end portion of the seat cushion by means of the operating portion, an ottoman body that extends from the front end portion of the seat cushion toward toes of the seated person, and a second mechanism operable to lift the ottoman body by reducing a flexion angle of the ottoman body at the front end portion of the seat cushion, so as to bring the ottoman body into a lifted condition. The ottoman body is provided as a unit with the operating portion, and the first and second mechanisms operate independently of each other.

Abstract: To provide a vehicle capable of performing a transition between a stable state and an inverted state with a simple structure. A vehicle in accordance with an aspect of the present invention is a vehicle that moves by inverted pendulum control, including a rider seat, a chassis, a right driving wheel, a left driving wheel, motors to rotationally drive the right driving wheel and the left driving wheel, a forward bar protruding forward beyond the chassis, a motor to rotational drive the forward bar, a footstep attached to the forward bar, and a control box to control the motor. The feet of a rider 80 are put on the footstep. The control box changes the vehicle to an inverted state by raising the footstep so that the footstep moves away from a ground, or changes the vehicle to a stable state by lowering the footstep so that the footstep comes into contact with the ground.

Abstract: A drive (35, 37) reversible to two active states for optional generation of a force of displacement effecting retraction or extension of a foot rest configuration (11) is provided in an aircraft seat. The seat has seat components such as backrest seat element (1), and leg rest (9) coupled to the front edge area (3) of the seat element and pivotable between a lowered non-use position and raised use position. A foot rest configuration (11) is mounted to be movable longitudinally on the leg rest (9) between a retracted position and an extended position to form an extension of the leg rest (9). The leg rest is coupled to drive (35, 37) which may be switched between an inactive state of rest and an active state generating a force for displacement of the foot rest configuration (11).

Abstract: A vehicle seat includes a lower-leg support, transferable from a stowed position into a utilization position, and a footrest. To achieve comfortable support with easy operation, the footrest has a footplate that may be folded out and that is located in the stowed position approximately parallel, and in the utilization position approximately perpendicular, to the lower-leg support, and coacts with an energy storage device.

Abstract: A adjustable foot rest for being used with a wheelchair to allow the foot of the user to positioned at a comfortable angle. The adjustable foot rest includes an adjustment assembly being designed for being coupled to hanger bracket of the wheel chair. A rest member is pivotally coupled to the adjustment assembly. The rest member is designed for supporting the foot of the user when the user is sitting in the wheelchair. The adjustment member permits the rest member to be angled with respect to the wheelchair whereby the adjustment member is designed for allowing the user to position an angle of the rest member at a comfortable angle to support the foot of the user.

Abstract: A seat (1), notably for an aircraft, comprising a squab (2), a backrest (3), and a legrest (4) fixed in an articulated fashion to the structure of the seat so as to be able to adjust its inclination between a substantially vertical position (B) and a position (A) situated substantially in line with the squab, this legrest (4) carrying a footrest (5) able to move between a retracted position and an extension position situated in line with the legrest. The seat (1) comprises control means (6) consisting of an electronic circuit (7) for making the legrest (4) pivot between the two positions defined above and simultaneously controlling the mergence or progressive retraction of the footrest according to predetermined kinematics. The said electronic circuit (7) also cooperates with means (11) able to be actuated by the user in order to adjust the position of the legrest.

Abstract: A reclinable passenger seat having a seat frame mounting a seat bottom, a seat back extending upwardly from the seat bottom, and a legrest assembly mounted adjacent a forward end of the seat bottom for being selectively extended generally downwardly and outwardly from the seat bottom for supporting the legs of the passenger. The legrest assembly also includes a legrest diaphragm mounted for pivotal movement in relation to the seat bottom and a legrest extension diaphragm telescoped within the legrest diaphragm for being selectively extended and retracted relative to the legrest diaphragm to provide an appropriate length leg support for the passenger. The legrest diaphragm and the legrest extension diaphragm each include respective pairs of spaced-apart rails and a fabric attached under tension to the rails for forming a taut, resilient support for the legs of the passenger.

Abstract: A tailgate seat for attachment to the rear tailgate of a pickup truck is comprised of a first frame member having a first leg and a second leg joined by a first cross member and a second frame member having a third leg and a fourth leg joined by a second cross member. A first seating member is attached to the first frame while a second seating member is attached to the second frame. A first strut is pivotally attached to the first leg and to the third leg, and a second strut is pivotally attached to the second leg and to the fourth leg, the first and second struts being made from a resilient material. A third strut is pivotally attached to the first leg and to the third leg while a fourth strut is pivotally attached to the second leg and to the fourth leg. A first clip is attached to the first leg while a second clip is attached to the second leg, the first clip and the second clip each having a non-scuff member attached thereto.
