Adjustable foot support

Adjustable foot support in combination with an automotive vehicle including at least one actuating foot pedal having a normally fixed non-actuation position that is adjustable in a range between forward and rear pedal adjustment positions to accommodate varying leg lengths of various operators and a power adjuster operable to selectively vary said normally fixed non-actuation position of the actuating foot pedal within said range, said foot support comprising:

• a foot rest including a normally stationary heel supporting surface extending below said actuating foot pedal to limit relative travel of a heel and ball of a foot operatively engaging said actuating foot pedal;
• and
• foot rest adjusting means including a power adjuster operable to selectively vary said normally stationary heel supporting surface between stationary forward and rear foot rest adjustment positions to position the heel supporting surface in a comfortable position that accommodates said varying leg lengths of various operators.

Adjustable foot support for an automotive vehicle including at least one actuating foot pedal having a normally fixed non-actuation position that is adjustable in a range between forward and rear pedal adjustment positions to accommodate varying leg lengths of various operators, and a power adjuster operable to selectively vary said normally fixed position of the actuating foot pedal within said range, said foot support comprising:

• a normally stationary foot rest positioned adjacent said adjustable actuating foot pedal;
• and
• foot rest adjusting means for selectively adjusting said foot rest between stationary forward and rear foot rest adjustment positions to position the foot rest in a comfortable position that accommodates said varying leg lengths of various operators, said foot rest adjusting means including a parallelogram linkage swingingly supporting said foot rest for movement between said forward and rear foot rest adjustment positions, and a power adjuster drivingly connected to said linkage and operable to selectively position said linkage in any of a range of stationary positions between said forward and rear foot rest adjustment positions.
