ABSTRACT:
An armrest assembly is for use with a piece of furniture and for supporting an arm of a person seated in a chair to relieve the weight of the arm on the shoulder, neck, elbow and wrist. The armrest assembly includes an armrest, means for selectively positioning the armrest vertically and/or longitudinally and/or laterally and/or pivotally in one of a plurality of positions relative to the piece of furniture, and means for fixing the armrest in a selected one of the plurality of positions. The armrest supports both the elbow and a portion of the forearm in an anatomically correct manner. The armrest is contoured and padded to contact the limb properly to minimize injury arising through long term contact. The armrest may be movable to ease ingress and egress from the chair. The armrest may be built as part of a specifically designed chair; it may be an attachment for an existing chair; or it may be an attachment for an existing table. The armrest is properly contoured to avoid any injury to the supported arms which might be caused by the long duration contact of the arms with the supports. With the arms thus properly supported, fatigue is minimized because the neck and shoulder muscles do not need to support the full weight of the arms.
