<p>A furniture member leg rest ratcheting member for temporarily retaining a leg rest assembly in multiple extended positions includes a one-piece homogeneous member (54) having a first portion (68) including at least two cavities (88,110) each defining a leg rest assembly extended position. A second portion (72) has a male engagement tongue (58). A third portion (74) has opposed first and second bracket engagement members (60,64) spaced from each other. The third portion (74) is elastically deflectable with respect to the first and second portions (68,72) to permit a furniture mechanism bracket to be received between the first and second bracket engagement members (60,64) when the male engagement tongue (58) of the second portion (72) is engaged with the furniture member bracket and to allow a ratcheting motion of the first and second portions (68,72) with respect to the third portion (74).</p> |
