PURPOSE: An ottoman device is provided to improve line operation efficiency because driving units for a leg support are simply attached to the bottom of a seat rather than embedded in a console. CONSTITUTION: An ottoman device comprises a leg support which is housed under a seat or unfolded to the front at variable angle, an electric-powered drive mechanism(20) which is installed in a fixed frame(12) under the seat, and a link mechanism(30) which is composed of a link frame(31) and links(32,33,34,35). The leg support is integrally attached to the link frame. The links are connected to the link frame. Therefore, the link mechanism turns the links by the torque of the electric-powered drive mechanism to operate the integrated link frame and the leg support.
