Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2455985A] A displacement-resistant footstool 1 comprising a sole-supporting surface 2, a ground-supported base 3 and connecting means 4 that connects the sole-supporting surface 2 to the base 3 and substantially redirects the sole-released forces, which are generated by the weight of the feet and a proportion of the weight of the legs plus any additional foot-pushing forces from a substantially horizontal direction that points away from the person to a substantially vertically downward direction towards and pressing onto the floor. In effect substantially converting the sole-released forces from being displacement forces to being displacement-resistant forces.
