The present invention relates to at least one body (B) on an air vehicle; a joystick (J) located on the body (B) and used by the pilot to steer the air vehicle; at least one armrest (K) at the air vehicle, on which the pilot places his arm to use the joystick (J) ergonomically; at least one shaft (2) which allows the armrest (K) to be adjusted at a height determined by the pilot, and on which the armrest (K) is fitted at least one auxiliary rod (201) located on the shaft (2) in a fixed manner; at least one main rod (202) located on the shaft (2) between the armrest (K) and the auxiliary rod (201), with the capability of moving linearly on the auxiliary rod (201); at least one absorber (3) located on the auxiliary rod (201), thereby absorbing movement of the armrest (K) during the movement of the main rod (202) on the auxiliary rod (201); at least one latch (4) triggered by the pilot to allow the movement of the main rod (202) on the auxiliary rod (201).
An armrest system (1) comprising at least one body (B) on an air vehicle;
An armrest system (1) according to any of the above claims, characterized by two shafts (2), which are located symmetrically and opposite on the armrest (K) with respect to the latch (4), thus allowing the load of the pilot arm to be distributed;
An armrest system (1) according to any of the above claims, characterized by at least one protrusion (10) located between the shafts (2) and extending outward from the armrest (K), wherein the latch (4) is located on the protrusion (10);
An armrest system (1) according to any of the above claims, characterized by a ground (Z) on which the auxiliary rod (201) is located;
An armrest system (1) according to any of the above claims, characterized by at least one channel (14) located to form an opening on the main rod (202);
An armrest system (1) according to any of the above claims, characterized by at least one guide (16) that at least partially surrounds the slot (5) and enables the locking element (9) to fit almost completely into the slot (5).
An armrest system (1) according to any of the above claims, characterized by the latch (4) located between the armrest (K) and the joystick (J), thereby allowing the pilot to adjust the length of the armrest (K) with his arm weight.
An armrest system (1) according to any of the claims 7 to 11, characterized by the ground (Z) on the body (B), on which the interface parts are located;
