Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of office chair device technology, and in particular to an office chair that facilitates leg support. Background Technology

[0002] Office chairs refer to various chairs provided for convenience in daily work and social activities. OfficeMate divides office chairs into narrow and broad definitions. In a narrow sense, an office chair refers to a chair with a backrest that a person sits on while working at a desk. In a broad sense, an office chair includes all chairs used in offices, including executive chairs, mid-level chairs, guest chairs, staff chairs, conference chairs, visitor chairs, training chairs, etc.

[0003] To make it more comfortable for people to lean back in their office chairs, leg supports are sometimes installed at the bottom of the chairs.

[0004] However, typical leg supports are designed to be pushed forward to a certain position before the user places their feet on them. Since everyone's height and body type are different, this placement isn't always ideal. Therefore, we've designed a leg support that integrates with the office chair, allowing for angle adjustment and a wider range of extension. This enables various body types to comfortably place their feet on the footrest, thus providing better leg support. Utility Model Content
