Abstract
An armrest, in particular for an office chair, achieves improved handling and adjustability in an individual and in a particularly variable manner by providing a preferably height-adjustable armrest column, an arm support carrier which is mounted on the armrest column and which is rotatable about a first rotational axis, and an arm support which is mounted on the arm support carrier. The arm support is rotatable about a second rotational axis and is displaceable in a linear manner relative to the arm support carrier. The two rotational axes are spaced apart from one another.
Claims18
An armrest for a chair, the armrest comprising:
- an armrest column including an arm support carrier, said arm support carrier being mounted on said armrest column and being rotatable about a first rotational axis;
- an arm support being mounted on said arm support carrier, said arm support being rotatable about a second rotational axis and said arm support being displaceable linearly relative to said arm support carrier;
- said first and second rotational axes being spaced apart from one another;
- and
- a switching mechanism for switching between at least two functional states of at least one of said arm support or said arm support carrier.
