Abstract
A seat assembly having a seat back and an armrest. The armrest is disposed on the seat back and is configured to pivot about an axis of rotation. The armrest has a headrest that is moveable between an extended position and a retracted position. The armrest is inhibited from pivoting about the axis of rotation when the headrest is in the extended position.
Claims20
A seat assembly comprising:
- a seat back;
- and
- an armrest disposed on the seat back and configured to pivot about an axis of rotation, the armrest having a headrest that is moveable between an extended position and a retracted position;
- wherein the armrest is inhibited from pivoting about the axis of rotation when the headrest is in the extended position.

A seat assembly comprising:
- a seat back;
- and
- an armrest configured to pivot with respect to the seat back about a first axis of rotation, the armrest having a headrest that is configured to pivot about a second axis of rotation between a first rotational position in which the headrest engages the seat back and a second rotational position in which the headrest is spaced apart from the seat back;
- wherein the armrest is permitted to pivot about the first axis of rotation when the headrest is second rotational position.
1 more element
A seat assembly comprising:
- a seat back;
- and
- an armrest disposed on the seat back and configured to pivot about a first axis of rotation between a folded position and an unfolded position, the armrest having a top surface, a front surface, and a headrest that is moveable between an extended position in which the headrest is spaced apart from the top surface and a retracted position in which the headrest engages the top surface;
- wherein the armrest is permitted to pivot about the first axis of rotation between the folded and unfolded positions when the headrest is in the retracted position and the headrest is rotated about a second axis of rotation from a first rotational position in which the headrest engages the front surface to a second rotational position in which the headrest is spaced apart from the front surface.
