Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1424029A1] Arm rest for an office chair is made up of upper (21) and lower (25) half shells. A plate (30) is mounted between these which allows the arm rest to be moved longitudinally and transversely and to swivel. The degree of swiveling is set using a lever (33) connected to a clip (31). The free end of the lever cooperates with a lock which swivels about an axis at right angles to the plate and releases a pin (33.1) from a snap fitting into a slide (36) passing through the clip. An Independent claim is included for a similar arm rest in which the longitudinal movement is controlled by cams (39.2) on the plate which cooperate with recesses (23) on the inner wall of the upper half shell.
