[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a foot-mounted device for hanging and supporting a foot in a comfortable state, for example, in a car such as a bus.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 When traveling long distances by bus, airplane, or general passenger car, you may feel tired because you remain in the same position for a long time while sitting in a seat, that is, with almost no movement. In particular, when traveling abroad by air, it may be necessary to sleep while sitting in a seat, but such fatigue often prevented them from sleeping sufficiently.

One of the major causes of the above-mentioned fatigue is that legs cannot be stretched while sitting in a seat. Therefore, various foot rests have been devised to support the feet in a comfortable state. For example, a footrest described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. Hei 7-24641, a footrest step described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 7-228179, or a footrest for a chair disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3020580 is used.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, such a conventional foot rest apparatus, which is provided for the purpose of comfortably supporting a foot while sitting on a seat, is poor in versatility and portability.

Some of them have been designed to be removable, that is, they can be placed on the floor of the vehicle, but few were developed with portability in mind and were not suitable for carrying. In addition, a foot-resting device such as a foot-resting step described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-228179 has been devised which is used by suspending the vehicle. If it did not fit, it could not be used and was not versatile. Further, the chair footrest of Japanese Utility Model No. 3020580 is used by suspending it by engaging with the supporting legs of a stowable table provided on the front seat. Naturally, it could not be used if no was provided. As described above, despite the fact that various foot rests have been devised to support the feet in a comfortable state, a foot rest having excellent versatility and portability has not yet been developed. .
