Armrest assembly

A multi-position armrest designed for use with a conventional chair to enhance the comfort of an individual seated within the chair, comprising:

• a support arm having a first end adapted for attachment to a chair and a second end coupled to an arm pad, the arm pad including a first circular locking member engaging a second circular locking member on the support arm,
• said first circular locking member having a frustoconical configuration with channels equally spaced around the entire circumference and said second circular locking member having a complimentary frustoconical aperture such that said first and second locking members mesh to selectively lock the arm pad relative to the support arm;
• said first and second circular locking members connected by coupling means whereby said coupling means permits the first circular locking member to rotate 360 degrees relative to the second circular locking member.

• a support arm having a first end adapted for attachment to a chair and a second end coupled to an arm pad, the arm pad including a first circular locking member engaging a second circular locking member on the support arm in a manner permitting the arm pad to selectively rotate 360 degrees relative to the support arm,
• said first circular locking member having a frustoconical configuration with channels equally spaced around the entire circumference and said second circular locking member having a complimentary frustoconical aperture such that said first and second locking members mesh to selectively lock the arm pad relative to the support arm;
• said arm pad includes a longitudinal support member having a cushioning member secured on the upper surface of said longitudinal support member.
