Foldable armrest

A pivotable armrest comprising:

• a first pivot assembly comprising a housing and a pivot plate, wherein the housing comprises a receptacle having a receptacle surface and the pivot plate is pivotally coupled to the housing proximate the receptacle surface;
• a second pivot assembly comprising a coupling projection extending from a circumferential surface of the pivot plate;
• an armpad pivotally coupled to the coupling projection, wherein the armpad comprises a longitudinal axis arranged in an elongated direction of the armpad and a lateral axis arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and extending in a plane parallel to at least one of an upper surface and a lower surface of the armpad;
• and
• wherein the coupling projection and the longitudinal axis of the armpad are substantially vertically oriented and the lateral axis of the armpad is substantially parallel with the receptacle surface of the housing when the pivotable armrest is in a stowed position.
