Armrest assembly with detent assembly

An armrest assembly, comprising:

• an armrest body that defines an interior space;
• a first shaft that extends from a first side of the armrest body along an armrest axis and is attached to the armrest body for relative rotational movement about the armrest axis;
• a second shaft that extends from a second side of the armrest body along the armrest axis and is attached to the armrest body for relative rotational movement about the armrest axis;
• a detent body fixed on the first shaft and is located in the interior space of the armrest body, including a first detent, a second detent, and a detent surface, the detent body further including a first space that extends through the detent body parallel to the armrest axis between the first detent and the armrest axis, and a second space that extends through the detent body parallel to the armrest axis between the second detent and the armrest axis;
• and
• a stop fixed on the armrest body, wherein the stop is retained in the first detent when the armrest body is in a first position relative to the first shaft, and the stop is retained in the second detent when the armrest body is in a second position relative to the first shaft, wherein the detent surface is located at a first distance from the armrest axis adjacent to the first detent and at a second distance from the armrest axis adjacent to the second detent, and wherein the first distance is greater than the second distance.
