Automotive seat with electrically actuated leg-rest

摘要

A leg-rest (12) comprises a pivotal base structure (PBS,32) pivotally connected to a seat cushion frame (18) and pivotable between retracted and projected positions. A sliding board structure (SBS,34) is slidably supported by the pivotal base structure (PBS,32) and slidable between retracted and projected positions. An electric drive mechanism (40-52) is employed for synchronously moving both the pivotal base structure and the sliding board structure between the retracted and projected positions.
