A wheeled invalid-chair has leg-supports provided with levers for an invalid seated in the chair to adjust the inclination of the leg-supports. Each leg-support comprises a carrier spar pivoted at its upper end to the chair frame and supporting a foot rest at its lower end and a leg rest intermediate its ends. The lever is hinged to the carrier-spar, and can be swung from a position along-side the carrier-spar to engage an abutment provided by the rounded upper end of the carrier spar for adjusting the pivotal position of the leg support relative to the frame by pulling on the lever. A locking mechanism is connected between each leg support and the frame for locking the leg-support in the adjusted position.
