ABSTRACT:
A sofa ottoman assembly includes a lazy tong linkage having a bracket at one end which is connected to the front rail of the sofa on which the assembly is installed and a second bracket which supports the ottoman. An actuating assembly includes a handle to be mounted on the side rail of the sofa and a number of links and levers connected between the handle and the lazy tong linkage which enables the party seated on the sofa to extend and retract the ottoman. The lazy tong linkage has a narrow side profile so as not to significantly increase the front to back dimension of the sofa on which it is mounted, and the actuating assembly is disposed closely adjacent the side rail of the sofa frame so as not to subtract from the space for a folding bed frame and mattress within the sofa frame.
