Abstract (en)

A pedaling device for improving blood circulation in sitting position of a user, comprises a pair of pedals each associated with a base and each having a length that is about half the length of the foot of an average user. Each pedal has a rear portion hingedly attached to the base and a front portion on which pressure is to be exerted downwardly by the foot to displace the pedal from its raised position where the pedal is inclined upwardly from the rear to the front portion of the pedal, to its lowered position where the pedal flatly covers the base. The pedals have a displacing arrangement which ensures that lowering one of the pedals raises the other pedal. <IMAGE>
