Leg support (10) has a calf plate (20) hinge-connected to support and which can be pivoted from a support position (A) to a first forward position (B). The hinge is a snap-in hinge (30) which in its snap-in state arrests the plate in its support position A and which falls into a resting rear position B by pivoting the calf plate from the support position.
