Abstract

A foot rest (10), being positioned on a generally planar surface, includes a generally cylindrical sector support member (20), having an outer surface (21) and an inside surface (22). A generally cylindrical sector base member (30) has an outside surface (31) and inner surface (32). The inside surface (22) is positioned proximate the outside surface (31) and the members (20 and 30) are substantially concentric. A platform member (50) is operatively connected to the support member (20). The platform member (50) has pivotally mounted thereto a foot lock lever (40). A bolt (60) is used to lock the members (30 and 20) in a plurality of relative positions after relative rotational movement between the members (20 and 30), thereby defining a plurality of heights of the foot rest with respect to the planar surface.
