the armrest can be operated without an additional actuating and locking element can be pivoted into the desired swivel position, the locking in the set swivel position by snapping the locking element into the selected one Locking element inclusion is guaranteed.
Figure 1 shows a schematic representation, partially as a vertical section, a side view the armrest according to the invention
Figure 2 shows a bottom view of the actual pivotable armrest.
the armrest shown in Figure 1, attachable to the side of a chair or armchair 1 consists of a substantially rigid, elongated in the horizontal direction Base body 2, on the top of which is essentially the same length as that Base body 2 having armrest 3 is attached.

the armrest 3 is relative to the base body 2 by one in the area of the rear end of the base body or the Armrest attached vertical axis 4 in horizontal Swiveling direction.
the armrest 3 is on her Underside in the area of their front end with a provided arcuate recess 5, the The center of the circle is defined by the vertical axis 4. In this recess 5 protrudes over the top of the Base body 2 projecting guide pin 6 such that the length of the arcuate recess 5 the outer and inner pivot positions of the armrest 3 are limited.
a spring-loaded Locking element in particular in the form of a ball 7, that within the swivel path of the armrest 3 in each snap into one of several locking element receptacles 8 can
These locking element receptacles are preferred at the bottom of the armrest along an arc, whose center of circle is defined by the vertical axis is attached in the form of indentations.
a bore 9 for receiving a Spring element 10 arranged, whereby the ball 7 against the bottom and with appropriate swivel positions the armrest 3 in each of the indentations 8 is pressed.
the armrest 3 is based on a middle position both sides preferably at an angle of each 4 ° to 8 °, preferably 6.5 °, pivotable.
