FOLDABLE ARMREST

摘要

The invention relates to an armrest for a vehicle seat comprising a seat cushion and a backrest and where the armrest is intended to be turned around a pivot axis between a first active position and a second folded-away position, which armrest comprises an upper part, which in the active position is positioned with its longitudinal axis essentially parallel to an essentially vertical plane through a side surface constituting an outer edge surface of the vehicle seat and intended to support a user's forearm, and at least one lower part provided with a fixing device for attaching the upper part to the vehicle seat. The lower part comprises a linking mechanism arranged for setting the upper part in a transverse direction between a first position outside the said side surface and an adjustable second position, and a locking device that is arranged to activate a catch that locks the upper part in a set position after it has been moved to the said second position. The invention also relates to a vehicle seat provided with such an armrest and to a vehicle comprising such an armrest.
